Imagine a face-to-face with McVay where you get to say "Coach, I'd like to see Dotson get a shot."
If McVay could be perfectly honest he would either say Dotson isn't ready or Dotson isn't as good as the guys we're playing. Or maybe both. (Other than that I can't even make up a reason why he wouldn't already be out there.)
What would you say next, that you really don't care - put him in anyway?
I'm willing to assume that Dotson isn't playing because the staff thinks he's not ready, or the staff thinks he's not one of the 5 best OL. (Or maybe both.)
But to be perfectly honest I think the Rams traded for Dotson because they think he's starter material. And if that's the case then it makes sense to me that he isn't playing because he's not yet prepared to play.
Maybe Monday night he'll get his shot. I would be happy to see him out there and if that happens I hope he owns the RG spot and keeps it for the next 10 years,
