Well, this year, I mean, that's one of the beautiful things about this team and this season.

They have seemingly always had...

the next man up.

And when they ran out of defensive backs, they went out and they got CJ Gardner Johnson on short notice and put them out there.

And then he's become a big part of this season.

So, you know, Theo Bennett, it's still young.

His story is incredible coming from Canada where really you don't see guys come out of Canada and have success at this level.

There's been very few examples of that.

And he, he's played enough football this year that I think you can,

You know, you don't feel like it's going to be locked down at left tackle, but you feel and you have trust in Dan Rochard and Ben Johnson to to come up with solutions.

Now, the one thing I am interested in over there is Ben Johnson.

A lot of times this season is like to leave his tight ends isolated on on defensive ends at times.

And Cole Comet in particular has handled that really, really well, both in the run in the past game.

a couple times last week because if you look at the snap counts and it is warranted and earned, Colson Loveland is starting to eclipse Cole Komet in terms of actual snaps and how you would view as the number one tight end.

And there were a couple times last week where they tried to leave Loveland out there on an island and with mixed results, not surprisingly, as good as he has proven to be as a blocker, that's asking a lot as a rookie.

So I do wonder in this game,

Were the edge rushers scare you more than they did last week with the Packers without Micah Parsons?

How will they adjust with that task, especially with Theo Bennett in there?

I will tell you this, though.

Theo can maul in the run game.
