Cam Wake to get a shot to on Monday? More than likely

padre31luxury_boxOPPer Mike Berardino's Q&A:
. As for Wake, there's a tradition in the Sparano era of bringing up one player from the inactive list who has the best week of practice, or at least the sort of week that has Sparano singling out that player for praise. Considering Sparano said on Thursday that Wake has done "an outstanding job in practice" in terms of simulating Dwight Freeney's pass rush – and also considering the kick return units figure to get shaken up a bit after a blasé opener - I'd say Wake is going to get a shot on Monday night.
I certainly hope so as you can never have too many passrushers, and the return unit was rather anemic, Wake will bring some added passion to both units.
djphinfansubscriberYes sir Compadre...lets hope that the dude never sees another inactive list again after monday night.
Cant wait to see that low, torpedic like mother grabber come off the edge.
PerfectTeamforum_veteranI really do hope Wake is active. The colts have a banged up OL right now and having Wake, JT and Joey rushing the passer is going to cause nightmares for Manning. If Merling can continue his play from last sunday as well, Manning's jaw might get broken again (not saying I want his jaw broken, just want him hit plenty).

Well, I'm personally happy for Wake, of course this just Mike B speculating, but it does have some basis to form his opinion.
I mean, if I were in Wake's shoes after the Giants cut him and spending that time in the CFL, to finally be able to play in the NFL would be quite a thrill for him I'd imagine.
Ohio Fanaticsubscribergood news. getting more young enthusiastic high motoring talent on that pass rush can only help us. he can't be much worse against the run than Joey Porter.
testing

Manning has the ball out so quickly, and I'd bet we shut down their running game early, that every passrusher will matter on MNF.
The thing with Wake, if he pressures early, Porter is likely to face single blocking and should flourish, JT sort of makes his own chances at sacks.
Frumundah FinnaticNew MemberWe could use an extra pass rusher on monday.

Die_NastyNew MemberWho do you think we place as inactive if we do in fact bring up Wake? maybe Hilliard?
I personally would love to see Wake come in and succeed on Monday. More pass rush the better. I love me some LBs. :P

Hilliard would be a good guess. Other than that I really don't know who they could deactivate. Everyone else is needed on special teams. Hilliard is really the only person I could see deactivated in favor of Wake.

yeah, I think you're right. That would be my best guess too.

LT Curtis Johnson is nursing a bad back, and Tony Ugoh's play was poor enough to see him benched, then moved to Right Tackle.

Charlie Johnson, their starting LT I believe will be out along with a key backup in Jamey Richard. I thought Richard was starting but apparently isn't.

See the thing that makes me suspect Hilliard would be the guy they deactivate is because of his limited role on the offense. He just isn't going to see many touches. Walden and Anderson at least contribute more on defense and so does Jason Allen. I was actually surprised Wake wasn't activated last sunday to help with the pass rush.
wpgfishfanNew MemberMoses??
Well after 15 years Bettman lets hockey come back to Winnipeg. Thanks for wasting 15 years

Possibly, JT has a death grip on the SOLB position, for all the talk of limiting his snaps he played virtually every down against Atlanta making Moses not as valuable because Wake is a better pass rusher.
I do know we had Charlie Anderson in on 3rd downs and he did not do very much as well, he could be a practice player who doesn't shine when the lights come on.
Erik Walden was solid in kick coverage though, so he will be active Monday.

Moses I think stays active because of his ability to spell JT.
MrCleansubscriberHilliard was in on some of the tackles in kick coverage, so he is helping a lot there. Since our kick coverage units played well, do you want to potentially weaken them by not using Hilliard?
As for Wake helping on kick returns, have we seen anything to suggest he is a better blocker in that role than the guys we had ahead of him? Looking at how poorly we did returning kicks, I guess he would not be any worse.

adamprez2003forum_veterani'm rooting for wake to play. with the injuries to the colts oline and going against Long all week (better than who they have) he might be able to contribute a nice game. We have to get to Manning so anyone who helps with that is needed. Besides Padre would be thrilled

Conuficusluxury_boxIf Ugoh plays it isn't an easy win in pass protection. He is athletic and can move his feet well. Ugoh is however a weak player who could struggle to handle our size and physicality up front. If we finnesse him, Ugoh can win, but power will win almost every time.
