Russ "banged up"....

[hawksfansinceday1]

according to Pete. NOT good news though no surprise considering the beating he's been taking. This team MUST have him playing well to win against any other team they play. I really hope this isn't a big deal.

 

[Pak40.]

It is unbelievable the amount of punishment that guy can take and still play. He must be made out of bricks or something.

 

[Zebulon Dak]

Luckily if he can't go we should see little to no drop-off in level of play thanks to TJ! TJ! TJ! Hopefully Russ is ok though.

 

[davidonmi]

probably not a big deal, but if it continues he's going to get hurt

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Does he need a massage? Some Five Guys? I'll be right over as soon as I know how I can help.

And Okung is out with just a toe issue and RW is taking a beating.

A toe? Seriously? Cut it off and get back in there. Jeez.

Ashton - to the rescue !!! :common039:

I hope yur kidding, I'm take it you've never torn a ligament before

 

[Hasselbeck]

He just said hes ok.

But yeah you could tell some of those hits he took today were rough. He's been taking a pounding all year but it felt like to me that Tampa was really trying to light him up. Not a surprise considering their coaches background.

 

[Blitzer88]

No surprise there, he took some hits today.

This post is Exhibit #1,524,670 why we should stop calling it "turf toe." People don't actually read about what turf toe is and then make silly comments like this one out of ignorance.

Russ said he's okay...I think he just hit his hand on a helmet during a throw.

And Lynch has been sick before; against Philly a few years ago. Just needed his Skittles.

Good news. And yeah, Shitano is bush league. Glad he'll be out of the NFL next year (and likely permanently).

He was talking to a guy in a suit on the sidelines before the start of overtime. I immediately thought it he man was a doctor...I was thinking possible concussion but that's just me guessing. Tavaris also went out for coin toss.

 

[Jazzhawk]

He's a freaking NFL QB! A professional football player paid to take big hits. My god you guys act like he's a china doll.

 

[VaporHawk]

He went down hard on his left shoulder at one point and was shaking it loose as if it were bothering him. No I am not a doctor, just a guy up in the cheap seats.

 

[Basis4day]

Enough excuses and speculation. Wait for facts. 8-1 people.

If that were Brady or Manning taking all of those late hits, there'd have been about 75 yards in penalties.

Just put a little grease on some of those dents and add a little oil and the robot will be fine.

(in all seriousness he's one of the last guys on the team I worry about getting hurt. He's built like a mini tank.)
