BTW: In the same press conference Gibbs said that their concern about Springs came from what they saw during practice and that is why the made the decision to start Smoot, but that Srpings seemed to be 100% when he showed up for the game...He also said he will start games this year.

It seems that they are just trying to make sure h gets himself to 100% and can stay healthy down the stretch.

I wouldn't be surprised if later in the season we see Smoot start again against an easier opponent in order to rest Springs a bit.

Gibbs has confidence in all three cb's, but Springs is the man and will be in the starting lineup again very soon.
