Key Injuries

Post by PurpleMustReign »

Terrell Suggs out for the season. Devastating blow for Baltimore.
From ESPN.com:
Baltimore OLB Terrell Suggs left today's loss to the Broncos late in the 4th, and the news is devastating. Suggs has a torn Achilles and is expected to miss the remainder of the season.

Charles Woodson looked like he broke his arm/wrist at the end of that game, too. I don't know when the diagnosis will come through for that.

Other key injuries of note:

Andre Ellington (knee)
TY Hilton (knee)
DJ Fluker (ankle)
Josh McCown (possibly the coolest looking concussion ever)
Luke Kuechly (concussion)
Antonio Cromartie (knee)

Most of these don't have timetables right now, I just thought I would post a few updates.

Also, the report on JPP's hand/general strength was less than positive this morning on the FOX pre-game show.

Ouch for the Cowboys, I doubt Romo is good enough to make up the difference on his own, and im a fan of the guy.

Some buzz going around that Brees may have a torn rotator cuff or other shoulder injury. Saints' troubles going from bad to worse.

Schefter said it wasn't as serious. Should be back in a couple weeks, if he misses any time at all.

I heard they bumped Dez to 10 or 11 weeks because of a bone graft?

There are all kinds of rumors on Dez right now. Between 8-12 seems to be the consensus.

Romo also out for 8-10 weeks with a broken collarbone. Let's see the Cowboys offense with a mediocre running game and Weeden commanding the offense. They get some defensive help back but that should be a pretty big downgrade on the offensive side of the ball.

Luckily for them that is a trash division this year, or at least looks to be so far.

That saved the Packers playoff hopes during Rodgers absence in 2013 when we absolutely blew, and that was a team racked with injuries as well, it seemed like anyone who wasnt on Injured Reserve was either out or playing through an injury. I think the Cowboys still make the playoffs by way of Division Title. I think they are still the most talented team in that division.

Cowboys should sign Matt Flynn, he saved our season once and the Cowboys remember at least one game of that very clearly. :thumbsup:
