Its' not as severe as the other hammy injury? So does that mean he'll only be out 5 weeks now? That doesn't tell us much...

 

Oh, ok. I was at the game and the talk was that Allen's injury was serious too.

 

Wow talk about being totally wrong.

 

Eh... maybe two weeks ago, this would have been tragic... but now? After all this team has been through this season? Chances are they still find a way to do exactly what they would be doing with AJ80.

I'm going to be monitoring Vicker's healing powers just as much as AJ's.

Depth is a pretty damn inportant thing. Glad we don't have a one-dimensional team.

 

What in the ****? Damn. It's a good thing he's not our best wide receiver or anything.

Not as bad ?

So it means 5 weeks instead of 6?
I think I will wait and see

Rocket River

 

He's gonna get an MRI in the morning so we should know more tomorrow...

 

Last one he was laid out on the ground for a long time. This time he got up immediately and started hopping off.

He'll probably miss a few games.

 

We need a bye in the worst way.

 

Looked to me like some pretty Micky Mouse grounds keeping. Three open field, non-contact, traction related injuries? Something up with that trick multi-section field today...

 

That would at least mean he is back for the playoffs. I think.

 

In other news. We could win the division next week with a win and a Titans loss.

 

Exactly what I was thinking. Haven't most of our major injuries happened on this ****ty field? Seems every week someone goes down at home on that "grass". Sick to hell of this crap.

 

I dont care if AJs leg is slowly decaying from leprosy. when we make the playoffs he will be a factor...

 

Current status of the hamstring:

 

Hamstring don't have anything to do with the field condition. I understand if he was rolling an ankle or a knee but he didn't slip when he hurt himself, just pulled up lame.

 

You're right, but the field looked like a patchwork quilt - it was abysmal. There were several other slips by players in the game that I would blame purely on field condition.
