Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
I'll take the injuries now and not by week 4 of the regular season as was the case last year.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
Matty, I hear you, but I'm about to agree with the players. Knock it down to 2 preseason games to get the rust out and figure out who to keep from these other 40+ guys in camp based on practice and scheduled scrimmages with other teams where certian types of hitting or rules are in place to limit the really hard contact. With that being said, our guys are getting hurt in practice not in games.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
It's football, injuries are going to happen. They already greatly reduced the amount of OTA's and contact practices.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
Agree 100%, one thing the NFLPA did gain in a big way in the new CBA is limits on OTAs, contact practices, etc.

We're in MUCH better shape than most teams. We haven't lost a real star player. Jammal Brown is our biggest-name major injury and that should have been expected. Kory Lich and Trent are minor, they'll be fine Week 1. Chargers lost their starting RB Mathews. Broncos RG Kuper just broke his arm. Colts LB Angerer broke his foot. Titans WR Britt still questionable to start the season. Bears Urlacher just had minor knee scope. 49ers Aldon Smith has some kind of hip injury. Seahawks WR Sidney Rice hurt his shoulder. Steelers RB Mendenhall and NT Casey Hampton questionable for Week 1. Eagles QB Vick hurt his throwing hand, Mike Patterson out indefinitely, Jason Peters out for the year. Giants have a ton of injuries on D - T. Thomas, Canty, Shaun Rogers. Saints RB Sproles just did something to his knee. Cowboys Miles Austin and Mike Jenkins may not be ready Week 1. Browns RB Trent Richardson is scaring them already. Ravens Suggs out at least until Week 9. We've been lucky so far.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
Started a new thread with news of Neild's season ending injury, so it doesn't get buried here
Nothing serious with Hankerson. Dehydrated as I said

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
Regarding Helu I wish he could stay healthy because he flashes good stuff out there. But you gotta give props to this FO and the coaches for going into every season w/ a RB stable.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
That might not be such a bad thing either. I liked what I saw from him against the Bills.

Re: 2012 53 man Roster predictions
It's too bad though, because we needed that speedier, shiftier back that Helu was for us. Not that I'm wishing injury on anyone, but it almost would have been better if this happened to Royster, that way we are replacing him with a RB of similar skill set...
