I am concerned about the TE's impact on the run game.
Our TE situation was already sketchy in run blocking w/ Jordan as the starter and Compton as the blocking TE. One doesn't block well and the other can't catch, at all.
Its a dead give away to the defense.

Now with Compton banged up we're in a even tougher spot because we're forced to try and get TE McCoy ready to be blocking TE in a pinch.

Its gonna be interesting to see how they approach the running game.
Will base personnel runs work w/ Jordan blocking the POA?
Will McCoy get enough plays down to contribute?
Or will they use formations without a TE blocking the POA as the base of the run game.
Other WCO teams like Seattle and GB often go I-Form 3 wide with no TE in their run game package.

I hope they get the run game going somehow.
