DeMarco Murray to have hand surgery

Kendall Wright has been practicing for two weeks with the Titans with a broken hand and been inactive for two games.

 

May have more to do with the fact that he plays for the Titans.

 

Bit of a difference though when your primary role is to catch passes.

Unless something major crops up (knock on wood), I think he plays. And plays a ton like normal. Maybe 5 less touches.

 

Just a gut feeling I have that he's hearing his name with Emmitt's right now, and that has become a HUGH sense of pride for him. Playoffs on the line. Contract year. Unless he has no left hand at all come Sunday... he's playing. A lot.

i think he plays too. Practicing today, regardless of what team it was with, just a full day after having surgery shows me how bad they need him in there. Dunbar has been good this year BECAUSE OF Murray. Teams don't game plan to stop dunbar, they game plan to stop Murray. I think he plays and gets his normal work load, maybe a few less pass plays but he'll get 20+ carries against that awful Colts run defense. Exploring options like a glove with extra padding in it for him goes to show how much they want and need him in the line up. I'm pretty confident he plays.

Practiced with 2nd team, took some hand offs from Weeden, caught a couple of passes. Randle practiced with 1st team.

 

 

IMHO, you have the best handle on the Huddle (and that's not a metaphor). I work in software (training and testing) and use that line with some people who I know would be receptive to that type of humor. "For grits and shins, let's try this and see what happens..."

 

Sounds to me like they're getting Randle ready just in case, while Murray dips his toe in the water with the 2nd team.

Have Murray in two championships and facing him in another. Have Randle handcuffed in one, my opponent has me cuff blocked in another, and I own Randle to block the Murray owner in the other.

 

Not sure what to root for in regards to Murray just yet...

I am amazed at the number of you that think it's no big deal for a running back to play one-handed.

You're mistaking me for someone else. I predicted he'd have at least two fumbles. Honestly, though, I think the Cowboys will go with more of a committee approach regardless if Murray plays or not.

Practiced again. Weird.

 

I am going to make the call now. His practicing means nothing other than keeping him fresh and/or seeing how he'll do with a cast on for Week 17 and the playoffs. He'll sit this game out.

from your ESPN link..Jones says if he feels good and can tolerate the pain he'll play. I think he plays
