I can understand not blaming injuries when you have a couple of key guys out, but not when you have as many key guys out as we do.

It looks like we have up to 11 guys out. Washington, Taylor, Rogers, Jansen, Thomas, Moss, Smoot, Griffin, McIntosh, Thrash, and ARE are all out or are battling injuries. Of course, Moss, Smoot, Griffin, ARE and McIntosh will likely be in the lineup come Sunday. Nevertheless, if someone told me Washington, Taylor, Rogers, Thomas, Jansen, Moss, and Thrash were going to be out of more than few games, I'd tell them we'd have a 6-10 season on our hands.

I just don't understand how we are getting beat up so much. I'm wondering if the "do you're own thing" back during the summer was a bad thing for our players? I know people have said the Indy is in bad shape with injuries as well, but look at them, they've lost two in a row. So, I'd definitely say injuries are definitely a huge reason why we're struggling to stay above .500 right now. On the flipside though, it's also a blessing. At least our backups are getting playing time and getting a chance to develop. I hate talking about next year (because we are still very much in things this year,) but you'd think we should have a pretty solid team with depth next season.

Ah! Sweet! I agree: it's Ridiculous.

I'm kind of getting the feeling that maybe it's just not meant to happen this season, which sucks because it will probably mean more transition and more rebuilding. Losing 50 percent of your first team is just too much for a team to endure. Hope I'm wrong.

sandy, about time for that trend to end, CP's comin to town. 100+ comin up!

Yea this really stinks losing ST & JT thats all we need another big key player/players out. Those are aweful big shoes to fill in ST.

I hope the team can buckle down and play 60 minutes of ball on both sides, and have a great day on special teams, Rock has been doing really well on kick off returns.

God himself would get injured if he were a Redskin, just because.

this f** sucks!!!

I'm confused about "Praylow." Seems like the guy makes big plays when he serves as a backup. I remember him putting all kinds of nasty hits on the Dolphins especially, and I know he's made an impact other times. Then when he gets a big opportunity after ST goes out it's like things fell apart in the secondary.

What gives? The guy is a veteran too right.

Sean Taylor just sent me a private message on MYSPACE since we are tight like that. Actually he just posted it to his bulletin but here's what it says.

"As most of you all know i have a grade 2 knee sprain which hurts like hell when i walk but the most disappointing news i mabey out for the cowboys game and the bucs game depending on how well i get and the aproval of my doctors so just to let you all know i may not be playing for two weeks."

I think the grammar and spelling proves beyond doubt that this is really from Sean.

No way! Are you for real? "mabey"? Wow. Poor Sean. Get well soon, your alternatives to football don't look very promising.

I know this is off topic, and I should know the answer, but how much longer do we have Taylor under contract?

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

Damn, this is not good. Now we are going to really hurt after this one. Injuries are not an excuse, but damn can we get a little luck on our side. These keep stacking up every week. And dammit I'm sick of it. Yes I'm definatley giving Gibbs a pass. The guy has done a good job this year, and I want him around next year so we can continue to build our team around the coaching staff that is in place.

[mredskins]

Can we all agree this year has been worst for injuries then last year. this is insane!
