Long to (fake) IR. Now we stand a chance to get better.
This might improve the run game a little bit. Leno is still going to get burnt on the outside though.
I wouldn't be surprised if Larsen takes over. That seems like a Bears move, rather than putting Coward in and seeing what he's got.

Yay. Coward is the best athlete of the group. Hopefully he can put it all together be a solid guy there. Plus I like Larsen's veteranness as a backup who can come in and play any interior position at a moment's notice better than Coward could.Just saw this and can't go back to edit my post anymore.
There probably won't be any major improvements this season. I think Coward can be marginally better than Long because his body actually works. But he doesn't have half the ability a healthy Long would have. And to rich's point not having to cover for Long will probably help Daniels a lot. Coward is a converted defensive end that is still learning to be an offensive lineman.
The offseason shopping list will probably need to include 2 starters on the oline.
Well, he converted over a year and a half ago now. Sure, it might be bad... but let's see. It certainly can't be worse than Long.
