Is Browner injured?

[Blitzer88]

Crap....well lets hope he is out there for us on Sunday.

One WR (that we didn't have last year when we went 11-5).

While correct it is a guy that we sunk a ton of money in and we released our return guy because of that signing. A return guy that had some real nice gains at the end of the season to help the team out

And so nice of you to put Kicker into your "argument" while neglecting QB...

Was hoping you wouldn't notice

Who is currently available as a FA. So if we losing Harvin was that detrimental to the situation, I think we would have scooped him back up by now.

If Browner is out Sunday I don't think it will cost us the game, it could cost us a turnover though. He has been a ball hawk this preseason.

I think it's pretty reasonable to be concerned with all the injuries we've seen already

Other than Harvin, none are super serious. As in season ending or long term, mostly just nagging stuff like hammies and groins..........which if properly rested won't be a big deal by week 3 or 4. At which time both Clem and Irvin come back.

Sure it seems like we've been hit hard by injuries already, but I'd rather have the type of injuries we're seeing, AND them happening now rather than in week 12 when we're trying to win the division.

I'd say hamstrings are pretty serious. It's no torn ACL or a fused vertebrae, but they're very prone to re-injuring and can nag throughout the season. That's a tough one to get over.

Hawks only need one shutdown corner tomorrow. The rest of the receiving corp after Smith is pathetic. I just hope someone covers the TE.

No because we then went and drafted Ware and Michael and simply don't have room on the roster

I think the injuries are getting over blown. Don't get me wrong, it sucks to have guys go down, but at the most important positions, nothing.

Really? DE and DT is nothing, now our most physical CB could be out? I wouldn't call that nothing. Just me.

to clarify my own stance. I don't think these injuries are putting us at 4-12 but I am concerned about them. The second part of injuries is that you are now down to resever guys. Sure they can often do what is needed and you win games on the other strenghts of the team BUT it puts you in a vulnerable situation especially considering we haven't even begun the season yet. Now the real hitting will start to happen and injuries to backup guys can become huge huge problems

we were lucky last year with no key injuries for most of the season. If the backups stay healthy I think we will be fine but I am not going to ignore the number of injuries that this team has now. It is a concern

It really isn't that different from last season. Showing up on the injury rpt as limited is nothing to stress about.

Let me offer some perspective. Check out these injury rpts from last year when we had a pretty light season as far as injuries go

Lynch was rarely not limited last year, yet, played in every game:

Not too worried, we'll be fine with WT3 if he misses. Hell, we were still good with Lane & Maxwell holding it down last season CB in particular is not a position I'm worried about with injuries.

Thursday's Injury Report is posted. Browner was held out today.

Avril, Mebane, and McDaniel were full participants after being limited yesterday.

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Guys are always listed. I'm not worried about it.

I hope Coach Carroll steals a Belicheck move and lists half our guys on the injury report each week.

Bad sign on Browner. Hammys take time to heal. Sounds like he may be out. Pity, because he was so awesome against them last year
