From his blog. No way the Eagles cut him.......can they ?
"I'm one of those bubble guys. I know it. I know where I stand. Tonight is a big night. We're here in North Jersey where we get to play the Jets. I still believe that blocking is going to be the No. 1 difference for me. I've spent a lot of extra time following practice this week with coach Bill Shuey, who has helped me out from the start. Thanks to his help, I think I've upgraded my blocking a little bit.
But this whole preseason, I've been trying to find my niche in the run game and I'm still trying to do that.
I know that the final cuts are due Saturday. I'm not focused on making a roster spot. I'm trying to make Ryan Moats better, no matter where that may be.
I think it's great that I will get more playing time tonight. I don't know exactly how much, but the time will help. I'm ready for it.
I have to thank my teammates for helping me so much mentally over the past 1 1/2 years. When you talk to another running back, it helps so much more because they see on the field what you see. I watch Brian Westbrook in practice everyday because he is the one who might run a play right - from seeing the hole, waiting for the blocks, making the right but, etc.
I'm not any more nervous for tonight's game. It's just football. It's what I've done my entire life. I just have to go play the way I know how. "
