Gates will play

that’s the “did not practice” list, not “will not play.”

Hopefully that banged up hip and the missed practice will affect him, as well as his timing with Rivers. Couple that with some pressure and we’ll have a good chance at containing them.

On this team, we are all united in a common goal: to keep my job.
