James Hardy does sound intelligebent.

And the Patriots can still win 10-11 games. They're going to have to find ways to hide Cassell. That's gonna be pretty hard.

Jaguars are down to five offensive linemen.

LT: Khalif Barnes (regular starter)
LG: Uche Nwaneri (backup)
C: Dennis Norman (backup)
RG: Tutan Reyes (backup, although he was technically third string before the injury to Brad Meester)
RT: Tony Pashos (regular starter)

Backup LT Richard Collier is still fighting for his life, starting LG Vince Manuwai is out for the season with an ACL, starting C Brad Meester isn't due back until around week 6-8 depending on his recovery from shoulder surgery, and Mo Williams just suffered torn bicep and could be headed the injury route ala Meester.

Yikes.

Yeah they're pretty dinged up. Marcus Stroud is coming into town too. That could get ugly.

i'd have to say that reggie bush was the player of the week. his game winning touchdown was pivotal, in a hotly contested game between what is generally recognized a battle between 2 teams predicted to take 1-2 in the division. it is also pivotal, because this is beginning. the first. the genesis game for this year, on the road to the SUPERBOWL. and many will say that this was the beginning of it all for 2008, when reggie scored the game winning touchdown.

sure, there may have some individuals with more yards. more touchdowns. more "fantasy" points. but the depth and greatness of this player cannot truly be fathomed nor understood, until he steps onto the superbowl turf. it will be then, that many will point to this pivotal moment and his excellence in play.

the NFL is lucky to have a player of this caliber. and all of us here at realgm, are fortunate enough to be witness to it.

They're in big trouble. They can't catch a break. The Jaguars Offensive Line is in shambles too.

Yeah I'd say the Jaguars are in deep trouble offensively. The entire interior line features backups, and are now having to scour the FA wire to fill out the rest of their OL depth (the only other OL they had was Charles Spencer, who was signed just a week ago to fill Collier's spot).

Granted, Taylor and Jones-Drew are too talented to be completely stifled, but I don't see the team having as much success offensively (especially last season when they were the best scoring team in the league by mid-season IIRC).

Oakland is pretty much in shambles offensively. Not because they don't have talent, but because they just don't use it properly.
Im pretty freakin awesome........
