Offense
-Matt McGloin will start at quarterback. This we know. The question remaining here is whether or not Rob Bolden comes into the game, or how much (if any, due to nagging injury) Kevin Newsome plays. Bolden is listed as "probable" on the injury report.
-The same rotation for the backfield looks likely, though Silas Redd could end up with more carries than No. 2 TB Stephfon Green.
-Nothing new with the wide receivers.
-The offensive line wasn't as horrid last week as the first six weeks of the season, but keep in mind that was against Minnesota. No changes forcast this week.

-Jordan Hill will most likely start at weakside defensive end.
-However, Khairi Fortt has been shifted to a stand-up DE role this week, so he could see more time along the line of scrimmage. This move looks very promising, at least considering Fortt's speed against Denard Robinson.
-Andrew Dailey is listed as "probable" on the injury report. He's been fighting a bad stinger from the Illinois game, which was re-aggravated against Minnesota.
-If Dailey doesn't go, it will be Malcolm Willis, who played well last week.
-Stephon Morris has reportedly lost his starting job at corner to Chaz Powell. This could be a motivational tool used by the coaches this week, so we'll see how much time Morris actually rides the bench.
