Balzac Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Question now is whether Burleson becomes a viable plug-in for this week at WR . . . not sure I trust that Hill won't just dump to Best and the TEs all game long. Burleson's got some skills though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burleson's got some skills though. Big risk since the Giants defense is playing lights out. I wouldn't even be high on a healthy CJ against them at this point.

Double Agent Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Losing CJ hurts my team...but at least I have a healthy P.T., Finley, and Collie. F my season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SatchDork Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Whether Megatron is 100% or 0%, the best you can hope to get out of Schwartz this week is "game-time decision." Check the practice reports and all that, but I'd stick by my TV/laptop around 1:00pm on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I say put him out there at least as a decoy. Otherwise, you run the risk of overusing Best and would be putting his health at more risk. I say this b/c of his toe issue. Maybe as a decoy he would take some attention away from Best.

JUMbotron Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 It's the AC joint, where the collarbone attaches to the shoulder, even if it's 1st degree he might sit out a game. Too painful. With the bye in Week 7 I'd guess there's a 75% chance he's sitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Agent Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 No way he plays this week. They can't win plus he has the bye to get healthy. They'll sit him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damageinc Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Sounds like he will play Calvin Johnson (shoulder) had his most extensive practice of the week on Friday, increasing his chances of playing against the Giants in Week 6. Johnson wore shoulder pads in the non-padded practice, but he was able to graduate to stretching for balls with both arms. For what it's worth, Scout.com's Nick Caminata believes there's no question that Johnson will play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flemingd Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 No way he plays this week. They can't win FWIW no NFL team factors this in. If he's physically capable of playing, he will. They may just run him on fly patterns all day, he may never jump or go down low to get a football, hell they might just use him as a decoy. But every NFL team is a collection of 70+ alpha males and not one of them goes into a game believing they cannot win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I don't think the Lions will win, however, they have as much chance as anyone. They've been scoring, moving the ball, and could easily be undefeated this season. Nevr say never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWP 45 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I traded CJ for McCoy yesterday. I needed another RB and hope that COllie or B Lloyd can fill in at my #2 WR. I hope I don't have buyers remorese! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I don't have buyers remorese! I would do that trade any day, twice on Sunday, regardless of need. Good call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleshot Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Big risk since the Giants defense is playing lights out. I wouldn't even be high on a healthy CJ against them at this point. This^^ I'm sitting him this week, but I have Brandon Lloyd to soften the blow. I agree that the Lions should just sit him this week and let him heal up through the bye week. With Stafford likely back then as well, it'll help break him back in having a healthy Johnson to throw to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
