    A Change On Defense Not Talked About

    Beanie Bishop has been losing snaps to Sutton, and Sutton got toasted a couple of times yesterday.

    Bishop 6 snaps
    Sutton 45 snaps

    Last week in CLE:

    Bishop 21 snaps
    Sutton 10 snaps

    vs BAL:

    Bishop 29 snaps
    Sutton 15 snaps

    Maybe it's more about matchups than anything Bishop has or hasn't done. Dunno.

          Sutton looks old and slow compared to Bishop
          Bishop has made his share of mistakes, but I thought he was improving

              Per Tomlin, Sutton was given the nod due to the 'complexities' of the CIN offense and Sutton's experience in communicating and defending various scenarios.

                  Maybe we should get Sutton one of those motorized scooters.

                      Change his nickname from "Strangler" to "Scooter"?

                          Bishop back in good graces with Tomlin... played 81% of snaps last week to Sutton's 18%.

                              Tomlin loves some vets but overall, I think you have to stick with the youth even if some mistakes are made. Also, when a player takes that long off they need a lot more reps to get up to game speed
