LaRon Landry to IR
 

Season over. Interpret that however you want.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

Makes sense under the circumstances.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

It does, but I was hoping he'd be back for Dallas and NJ.

How exactly did he get this injury? I don't recall one play in particular.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

I guess no pro bowl. That's our luck the guy plYs like the best safety in the NFC and he gets hurt

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

Next year, lets hope he comes back on fire the seasons over anyway.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

Well look on the bright side, what if he came back this season, tore his ACL/PCL/MCL or something, and ended up out until midseason next season anyways? And now we don't have to worry about him rushing back so he can play before the season is over.

Take plenty of time and get plenty of rest Laron, because there's no doubt we'll need you next season.

Don't know exactly how, but he was injured in the Eagles game on 11/15 and had missed the last four games. I never saw him actually leave the game because of the injury.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

I don't think anything's torn, he's just not 100%. He could probably play this season if he had to. But our defense, team for that matter, hasn't been as intense since he's been gone.

This is bittersweet news but in the end, it is right move.. Since we are out of playoff hunts, there's no point to rush Landry back in the game if he is not 100% healthy.. Basically what mooby said, says it all for me..

This will give us a chance to evaluate players and see who can be the best back-up to Landry for next season..

Obviously the right move. He's a valuable asset to us.

Reed Doughty hasn't played bad in his absence, but that's because Doughty has always been a true strong safety as opposed to free safety where he's out of position. I'd keep Doughty for next season, get rid of Horton because he's expendable (we don't need 3 true strong safeties on the roster, we should have 2 strong and 2 free), make Kareem Moore a backup safety (seriously don't understand how you can play free safety and not try to be a physical presence) and get a good free safety through free agency or the draft/trade.

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

No need to risk him this year, good call to shut him down.

And oh yeah, he's officially NOT a bust! ;)

maybe not a bust but he does have injury issues now...

i think everyone pretty much knew he was done a few weeks back, heile pretty much said it one night on news 4. the worst part is the way he was going he was a lock for a pro-bowl nod, hopefully he comes back hungry next year... maybe 20 lbs heavier...maybe as a inside lb :)

stay dirty landry

I agree with you on everything.. I used to be big fan of Horton, thought he would become a good story.. But it doesn't look like Horton fits in Hasslett's defense..

Re: LaRon Landry to IR
 

shame we wont see laron again this season but it makes perfect sense. no sense in having him re-injure it. isnt it an achilles? that would be very bad to rupture that. smart move.
