How our call moved this week

• our call, P(plays)

94% EXPECTED → 96% EXPECTED

Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

Charles Woods is a starter at left cornerback for NE — 86% of the snaps in his best week of 7. He has a shoulder injury. This week he practised limited, then practised in full. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 96%, in a band that plays 96% of the time. We have said PLAY since 78 hours before kickoff.

The reader concurs · grade C

The sole passage is a recap of the 11 Oct game, i.e. history rather than status for 18 Oct, and it reads favorably: Woods was 'labeled as questionable to return with a shoulder injury' but 'did eventually make his way back onto the field' (P1). The same passage shows the shoulder is a known pre-existing issue he played through — 'he already dealt with a shoulder issue coming into the game' (P1) — and that New England's corner room is depleted, 'already down four cornerbacks entering Sunday' with Gonzalez and Davis absent (P1), which raises rather than lowers his likelihood of dressing. Nothing in the prose contradicts the PLAY call or the improving Wed-Limited/Thu-Limited/Fri-Full week, but no passage speaks to the final designation, so confidence stays at C. It would need to know: Final Week 7 injury report (Sat 17 Oct) game-status designation for Woods — Questionable/Doubtful/Out; Confirmation of Woods's participation level on Saturday 17 Oct, since club pages only cover Wed/Thu/Fri; Whether Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis have returned to practice/are active, which would reduce the need to play Woods through a shoulder issue (P1 notes both were absent); Any Mike Vrabel or club remark this week on the severity of Woods's shoulder; Whether Woods appeared on the Week 7 inactive list for 18 Oct
