The Misfit Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 (edited) Although no offensive FF players are directly affected, but I know there are a few people here who like to bet, among other things ... For those who did not see the Bengals-Browns game yesterday, the Bengals had three pretty severe injuries to starters: LB David Pollack broke his neck (damage to C-6 vertebrae) and was placed on IR and is done for the season. S Dexter Jackson and C Rich Braham have already been ruled out for the Steelers game next Sunday, although no word on the severity of their injuries yet. Keep in mind that left tackle Levi Jones was inactive for the game against the Browns Sunday. Braham also went out in the second quarter, so Rudi was running behind a revamped line for more than half the game (and his most productive half, I might add). But the O-line could be missing two starters v. the Steelers, and certainly Jackson will be missed at safety. What is it with NFL centers this year? Link Edit to add: At his press conference, Coach Lewis said Braham and Jackson won't play v. the Steelers, but Levi Jones should be back, and TJ Houshmandzadeh may play. Chad currently cannot raise his arm above his shoulder because of hitting his shoulder on his diving TD catch, but he's okay from the bloody chin, although he said it was the hardest hit he's ever taken. He should be fine for the game. Link Edited September 18, 2006 by The Misfit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Not to mention the fact that they concussed Chad Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Rock Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I'm assuming the broken neck isn't as serious as it sounds?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
