Initial injury reports / Post game

[Meks]

Moss - Hamstring arrrrrrrrrrrrrg

Portis - Undisclosed.

Anyone see the post game interview? -- Zorn is starting to build a reputation to freak out on the occasional pesky media person... I think its a good thing just to see the desire and passion he handles ALL Aspects his job with.

We all know what happens when Santana's hamstring acts up- it happens every damn year and it lingers. Shit. Fortunately we're only one game away from the bye.

I heard Portis rolled his ankle. Redskins Insider said he had it re-taped after the injury (which had my heart in my throat when he on the ground writhing in pain). He came back in the game, so hopefully it's nothing too serious. I would expect him to sit out most of practice this week again.

yea he's quoted saying he just needs a little rest and he'll be ready for monday night....

but i am concerned about moss' hammy .... like u said we all know what could happen to his performance now ....

monday night is gonna be a real big game for us.

and ya know ya always hate the bye week cuz we're not playing but im kglad its here our guys Deserve the rest and damn well NEED it!

HTTR!

I think both Portis and Moss will be fine.

If we can survive the Steelers game without any major injuries. I think we will be ok for the 2nd half. We've put ourselves in great position. I just hope we can get Samuels and Springs back 100% after the bye.

^ that would help alot.

I hope Samuels can go next week. Against the Pittsburgh D, Stephon Heyer at left tackle is a recipe to get Jason Campbell knocked out.

Well, he's supposed to get an MRI tomorrow. So hopefully that comes back ok.

Heyer does worry me a little bit after his performance today. He got manhandled a couple of times.

^^ yeah today it looked like the steelers D were causing quite a bit of havoc and playing hard high emotion. it will def be a change from the teams weve played lately who didnt play horrible D but didnt try to make anything happen either.

go skins!!

I really hope his MRI comes back okay. I've never heard of inflamed cartilage before. But it can't be too serious because he practiced this week and wasn't even on the injury report before warmups today.

We need our guys healthy for monday night... then every one can take off a week before we get dallas back at fedex... start thesecond halk of the year with a couple of wins would be nice.........!!!!!

I'm worried about missing Springs against Pittsburgh than about missing Samuels. To my knowledge Springs has already said he's out till after the bye, which is bad news w/ Big Ben always looking to hurl the deep shots. We need the very best coverage possible come Monday night and what is probably our best corner still won't be on the field. Heyer will look better next week. I think he was shaky from not starting in a while but from all accounts this kid really wants to prove himself and IMO his struggles are partially a concentration issue - his head should be in the game 100%.

I am not so worried about missing Springs as much as Samuels. Big Ben and that offense is not all that great. It is thir defense that can knock you (Campbell) out!

I love how some injuries just come out of left field. Did anyone hear of Samuals knee bothering him prior to this game?

skins can win without springs,but have a hard time without samuels.

If anyone watched the NYG-Pitt game yesterday, the recipe for beating Pittsburgh is pretty clear- get to the QB! Big Ben was pressured by blitzes all night and threw 4 INTs.

But we couldn't sack a QB even if he had lead in his shoes, so this could be a problem. Their O-line isn't that great, but neither is Detroit's and we barely laid a hand on Orlovsky. Willie Parker will be back next Monday too...
