as well as Myron Pryor. They both go on IR.

Sucks to hear for both of them.

Connolly looks good though.

Don't forget Mike Wright with the concussions, which I believe will mark his end a la the Bruin's Savard. I say we give Gerard Warren a call, since he played really good ball for us last year and if memory still serves me, looked pretty good in preseason. What concerns me most on D is the chunks of yardage RB's get on us. When we won those Super Bowls, backs had nowhere to go and were usually held to 3 yard gains or less, now they usually get around 4 to 5 per carry. I truly think our LB's are our real issue on D.

Too many injuries only going into the third week.

I hear that "boss"! Now Chung will miss this week due to a thumb procedure and will most likely play with a cast when he returns. Haynesworth too missed a practice, I believe due to a back issue.

I don't know where to put this, not worthy of a new thread, but the pats brought back Gerard Warren.

About damn time, once Pryor went down I was wondering when Warren was going to be back.

A very welcomed addition! Still don't know why they cut him, since they didn't even completely empty out his locker (guaranteed money?!). Big Al and Chung back out there too. I just want to see some improvement from this defense. Still amazing that a consistent pass rush can't be generated with those behemoths up front(minus last week)!

Patriots had to end Mike Wrights season.

Poor guy couldn't get better from that concussion.

:sigh:

Injury prone coming out of college, and now he's out for the year.

Faulk and Deadrick back though, that's good.

Well, Spikes strained his MCL. Week to week diagnosis.

That sucks. He was really playing great. Hopefully he can come back in a few weeks back to his usual form.

I'm gonna miss him doing the Charleston after every tackle
