Re: Reaction to Skins @ Giants and Niles Paul Starting

Stop overreacting to Paul being named a starter...everyone!

A starting nod doesn't determine his full-game role or amount of time on the field. It just means he's starting the game...nothing more. The first part of each game is always a scripted offense...so it's likely his blocking abilities will be used for the scripted plays. That portion of the game will likely be mostly running plays, not passing plays. After that, who's in at TE will be dictated by the flow of the game or need to make a play. Paulsen will get plenty of snaps and Cooley's role will be increased as he proves himself after his layoff and gets back into shape.

It doesn't worry me at all. Paul is a good blocker despite missing one last game. Catching seems to be his weakness.
