I think Griffin basically forced us into keeping 3 QBs with a poor showing the last 2 weeks. McCown has been the #2 guys in practice and in the games and while not great has looked more solid and consistent than Griffin.
I don't get this logic. Griffin has looked off, so I doubt he's in any danger of being of being claimed off of waivers. He can go right back on the PS.

I agree. Shame too because I was pulling for him and thought he would win the back up spot based on training camp reports and the first 2 preseason games. But, based on his last 2 performances I would say there is a 90% chance he clears waivers and makes it the practice squad. I just can't see us keeping 3 QBs this year.

So I guess there was a game last night. Two of my friends from church were going to try to go to it, but I was already in New Orleans (drove back yesterday) and just didn't feel like going to a final preseason game. As cool as it is to go to the dome, that wouldn't have been worth it.

While personally I agree that we shouldn't keep Griffin on the active roster and he didn't look the part of someone who could get snatched up, this is what I believe they will do. I think Payton likes Griffin enough to keep him on the 53.
Now if he doesn't make it I would put another LB(Powell or Davis) or a 6th safety, with an outside chance of keeping an extra guard. I would lean towards them keeping both Ball and Warren in that case.
On Armstead, you're damn right because Strief would have to take over LT and Harris RT with Jones as the new backup. While Strief is a fine RT I have no desire to see him face speed rushers.
On the receivers, Stills being hurt is part of the reason I kept 6. If we were to keep 5 I would think Toon gets cut and we try to get him to the PS squad (he's eligible for one of the two new spots).
Again though, this is what I see them doing and not what I would personally do.
