There's a couple of other possibilities...

With CFA, I'm under the impression the staff really likes his attitude and competitiveness. I could be wrong but if I'm right, they might be trying to find the position for him to gain more playing time. I know there are a couple of guys dinged up now, but during the pre-season, there was a bit of a crowd at the running back position with Chandler, Jordan, London and Banks. If I was the staff and loved the guy's approach, I'd also be trying to find a spot for him to see more time on the field.

But perhaps even more important, they are clearly showing they will give guys serious looks on both sides of the ball. When you can prove that on the field instead of simply telling a kid what they want to hear during the recruiting process, your promises mean something and your credibility will sky rocket. When you're early on in a rebuilding process, I don't see much risk at all in taking this approach.
agreed.
 
I think Cruise is a very good actor. I agree that I don't care necessarily for some of the movies he has starred in, but I still appreciate his skills as an actor. He has shown his diverse acting chops in A Few Good Men, Rainman, Jerry McGuire, Born on the 4th of July, The Firm, The Color of Money, The Last Samurai, and a few others.
He is not bad, but he ain't no Jack Reacher.

What's funny is that in the books Jack Reacher is 6'5" and somewhere between 220-250 lbs, while Cruise is 5'7", 170 lbs., but the producers still thought Cruise was perfect for the role.
The first movie was awesome, and Cruise was great in it, imo.

Exactly. I have not seen the movie for that reason. Reacher's size is one of the reasons he is so badass. (in before TWSS).

Doc, I thought he was pretty good in the first one, TBH. The second one, I didn't care for as much. However, I haven't read the books, so he could have been absolutely horrible in comparison.

I did too. The producers knew what they were doing. I just remember thinking when the trailer came out that Cruise seemed an odd choice because of Reacher's height, and Cruise's lack of, but Cruise was great in the role.

I think this week we limit the snap counts as much as we can for the starters. IMO the perfect case scenario is we have a big enough lead and no starter plays after halftime
