I posted this the last time this inept group of offensive coaches put together a disgusting offensive line so I wanted to update it now.  

This was the chronological breakdown the last time we did this.....

Xavier Newman plays ok at center in an emergency and starts at RG the following week when Tippman comes back.

We sign Chris Glaser off the Cowboys PS on November 1st.

We then decide to start Glaser at RG and deactivate Newman after Glaser has been on the team 2 weeks.

Glaser absolutely craps his pants in his start against the Bills and we release him and go back to Newman.

What could Glaser possibly have done in those 2 weeks of practice to lead this organization to think he should start?  This is not training camp, there are very few live reps for backups to earn a spot.  On top of that the OL is based a lot on continuity - why make a change?  

Lastly, if they did some sort of "evaluation" that led the team to believe Glaser should start over Newman and that resulted in his awful play vs the Bills, then how bad is our ability to "evaluate" these players?  Clearly whatever they saw in Glaser in practice didnt transalte to the game in any way

Really makes. you wonder what they are looking at day to day over there....brutal example of how to screw up an entire personnel group.

So now we are elevating Glaser, but where is Xavier Newman, is he hurt? Because the last listed transaction is Newman being added back to the practice squad on December 5th.  So again - WTF had Chris Glaser done to be added to the active roster besides literally be a parking cone when hes on the field?

To answer your question Xavier Newman reached his limit of 3 GameDay elevations. Which means he either stays on the practice squad for the rest of the year or they elevate him to the roster for the rest of the year. Maybe they don't think he's worth a roster spot (he's not)

If there is any sense to make of it at all it is that they are playing Olineman like Glaser to evaluate them for long term to see if they can be solid players moving forward. Maybe they felt Glaser’s upside or ceiling was higher than Newmans. But, as you said evaluation of players should not have been during weeks when we still were in the playoff race. But, now that we aren’t they can evaluate all they want as long as it is not with Rogers starting. Who cares if the others QBs end up at higher risk since none of them are worth a bag of donuts.

No team should be evaluating players mid week unless the player they are looking to replace is terrible.  There is very little practice time aside from game plan specific things during the season in the nfl.  Do we think Chris Glaser and Xavier Newman could possibly get enough reps to make a difference?

Newman played fine, yet we signed a player we had on the team previously, off the cowboys PS and felt he had done enough to start him and he was a disaster.  Yet now we are doing the same thing again?
