Uh-oh, where was Rock?

Could that mean we've seen the end of Rock Cartwright? He didn't have any carries, and I don't think he even had a single play on offense. With the hard running of Sultan McCullough, and Ladell Betts solidifying his position as the #2, I'd say Rock will be the surprise cut on Sunday afternoon. He did put the ball on the ground once, against Denver, and overall I just don't know if he fits in with Gibbs' system as well as the other RBs do. It was a tight battle, but in the end, it was either him or Betts, and McCullough seems to have a lot of upside. Rock is the classic odd-man out if you ask me.

While John Simon has been completely non-existant for the past two games now, one would think he has shown enough to be on the practice squad at the very least. Ditto for Gari Scott -- but that's assuming that both are eligible for the practice squad. I have no idea if they are.

Other players who may have bought their plane tickets: Garnell Wilds -- he stood out on a couple of special teams plays earlier in preseason, but there were a few bonehead plays and penalties tonight from him. Also Rashad Bauman -- he hasn't seemed to be much of a part of the preseason plans from the coaching staff. Even Ade Jimoh has seen more action. To me, Bauman is right on the bubble -- he could still make the roster, but it won't shock me if his name is on the cut list too.
