Nsekhe can't play anymore, though. I don't know if you put Steele at LT or if Ball could be ready to play or what, but he sucks.

That one one of the few concerns from the game last night, not that it was any surprise given how bad he was in preseason.

You know, I think I remember Collins saying in an interview last week that he feels more natural playing on the left side than the right.
Who knows?

I don't think we'll see Ball this year.

That's fine, just get Ty off the field please.

He's a fine 4th OT, average 3rd OT, so ultimately I'm fine rolling with Collins/Steele/Nsheke for a few weeks until Smith is 100%. Then even once Smith is 100% I'd consider just making him the 3rd OT until the last few weeks of the season, only to play in case of emergency/injury to Collins or Steele.

Collins played LT pretty much exclusively in college I believe, although Steele is the one who got reps on the left side in TC/training camp, so basically I have no idea who would play where.

We can absorb losing Smith for a few games, I'd even consider shutting him down until basically the last 2-3 weeks of the regular season to shake off the rust before the playoffs.

It'd keep Smith healthy primarily and ensure that we have a dominant LT for the 3-4 game playoff run, but it'd also give us extended looks at an OT pairing of Collins/Steele, I'm just not sure which would play LT vs. RT.

Collins is likely RT since he has never played LT. Then Steele would kick to the left. Nsekhe didn't embarrass himself last night, but looks like he is really laboring out there.
