connor got a lot of "terminator" love, but i had a feeling early on
that he would not be durable. hitting hard and making contact is
great, but only if you dont get up hurting every time. when ever i
saw him collide with other players, he looked like he did more damage
to himself. he often got up tending to himself after a hit instead of
zipping back to the huddle. of course my assesment was not made with
the scientific process, but i think he's going to be injured as often
as bob sanders. payne is a real big dissapointment because he looked
like a mad man.

They should have kept more than Cotchery...if Burress pays off I'll be very
surprised. He is not up to speed, and smart defenses will figure out
quickly the "big" body clearing out or crossing is not going to be the
target...he looks way too easy to cover. As for the injuries, I'm not sure
what goes, it seems like a lot of teams are having injury problems and I
think that is to be expected with the no football practice time before game
time.

Can't they cast a wrist and let him play?

X-No-Archive: Yes

They are talking about Richardson if Conner can't go but how many
roster spots can be tied up with hurt players?

I feel bad for Payne as he looked like a heck of a special teams
player. I imagine with a broken wrist he gets IR'd. we should have
kept Cotchery.

Always thought they overvalued Connor. With this running back tandem,
can we afford to keep a block only FB?
