It appears there is change afoot…

Cox is earning time, that's cool to see

However, you'll see a fair amount of variation from week to week and the % can sometimes be misleading.
Brenton Cox played 22 snaps last week and 22 snaps this week. But last week that represented only 31 % while this week it came in at 45 %

Ideal rotation is 65 % snaps for starters and 35 % for back ups- but that depends on opponent, game script, and how big a drop off there is.

I think Cox got more snaps because Enegbare and LVN were idiots who didn't know where the line of scrimmage was and they had to be a taught a lesson and be benched.

I am not reading too much into this. Cox got sucked in terribly on a run play and allowed a big run.

I only listened to the game, since I was on the road. But I'm wondering:

1. Where has Reed gone since we started giving more attention to Doubs?
2. Watson almost disappeared on catching the ball. (I have no doubt that he does his share of blocking.)
3. Clark got himself a fumble recovery. Take the wins wherever you can.
4. Can't say enough about Jacobs. Maybe he gets even more value in December/January?
5. More evidence that we are cleaning up our penalty problems.
6. I would still like to see if we can find one more player who can create turnover, besides X. A random guy will pop up, like Nixon yesterday. But what if Quay would get his hands on the ball more and start catching them.
7. Seems like we are still leaving points on the field. But you can't argue about 4 out of 4 RZ successes.

It's interesting that you bring up Reed. I really thought he was going to elevate his game from Year 1 to Year 2. Actually, this is my biggest concern at the moment with what otherwise looks like a team on the cusp of making a deep playoff run. The WR's (other than Doubs), have all seem to have taken either a step back or are even to last year. Mostly surprised by Wicks as I thought he was going to be the guy, and with Reed, I just expected more like 5-6 catches per game. Watson, I would say is about even to last year with less injuries, so that's a bright spot.

Maybe that gave LVN a kick in the butt.
