I'm betting stitches, and a thin covering to protect it. Then just not put as much air in that part of his helmet or use thinner foam to reduce pressure there.

Well Trent Green, Damon Huard, and Todd Collins have all said no to the Bears now.

If he has to learn a new offense...not a great signing for them. I really don't think he has the physical skills left to be a good backup QB. He only did well for us because he could run that system with his eyes closed after being in it for a decade.

Didn't see anyone mention it here, Larry Fitzgerald is out for the preseason with a sprained MCL, expected to be back for week 1.

ESPN is reporting that Collins turned down Chicagos offer.

Both Saunders and Martz are Air Coryell folks, so it should be quicker for him.
Doesn't matter now.

Donovan should take notice of Eli's head injury and start buckling his chin strap on every play.

Add Asante Samuel to the long list of injured Eagles secodary:

"I'm getting too old for this."

Nice.

He will be fine once he heals up. I would not be to worried if I was an Iggles fan.

Monkeydad · 08-17-2010, 03:24 PM

I would be worried, but not about Samuel.
