....this team is still ravaged by injuries.

Look at the WRs; how many games have they collectively missed?

Of course, 3 Bong Bryant is out all year. But then we also have Wheaton out the MAJORITY of the season.

Hey-Bey, so limited to begin with, has missed several games in a row.

Rogers missed games early.

Coates might as well not been playing the last month.

I mean, how many injuries can we withstand and still win?

D-Will has been out how many games? And is he going to come back any time soon? I knew he was gonna be hurt most of the season.

Gilbert, who is now a pro bowler, missed time at RT.

And in case you forgot, we have missed Golson for the entire year (for the 2nd year in a row), Dupree JUST finally saw the field this week (that means he missed 10 weeks), China Doll missed time, our best player on D, Heyward, out for the season.

Injuries are a reality of the NFL, but we still seem to suffer more than most teams.
 
I was going to remember something about the Steelers but forgot.

Wonder what it was.............
 
The Wheaton injury is the most over looked injury IMO. He's been here, he's played quite a bit, he knew the no huddle and was for theost part had good rhythm with Ben. Wheaton isn't a great wr or anything, but I think missing him has really limited what this offense could do to a degree, with young players like Coates, Eli, Cobi.
 
" In case you forgot". I'll be here to remind you in a way that puts words in your mouth, use your quote out of context, inevitably make you look small as I have just figured out the world situation, how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop, And last but not least to remind you of how good the hoodie is.

The younger guys are starting to step up on D. Hargraves has been a motor of late and has kinda elevated Tuitt's presence in the process. Davis and Burns have been fairly decent as well to be honest. The offense can move the ball and will. It's just a matter of the D stepping up
 
We just played the Colts, and IN that one game alone, they lost Vontae Davis, Clayton Geathers, Robert Mathis, TY Hilton, Ryan Kelly, Denzelle Good.

The Cardinals have 7 players on IR and 8 questionable for Sunday
The Falcons have 4, and 2 questionable
The Ravens have 8, and 6 questionable, 1 out
The Bills have 3, 6 questionable, 2 out
The Panthers have 2, 4 questionable, 3 out
The Bears have 10, 6 questionable, 1 out
The Bengals have 4,4 questionable, 1 out
The Browns have 3, 2 questionable, 1 out
The Cowboys have 2 (with two non football related PUP),
The Broncos have 2, 1 out
The Lions have 4
The Packers have 3, 3 out, 5 out
The Texans have 6, 1 questionable, 4 out
The Jaguars have 6, 4 questionable, 4 out
The Chiefs have 3, 5 questionable, 3 out
The Rams have 1, 2 questionable
The Dolphins have 3, 9 questionable, 1 out
The Vikings have 6
The Patriots have 2, 6 questionable
The Saints have 6, 7 questionable, 1 out
The Giants have 4, 4 questionable, 2 out
The Jets have 4, 2 questionable, 2 out
The Raiders have 2, 8 questionable
The Eagles have 2, 2 out
The Steelers have 4
The Chargers have 9, 3 questionable, 3 out
The Niners have 6, 3 questionable
The Seahawks have 1, 5 questionable, 4 out
The Buccaneers have 8, 4 questionable
The Titans have 2, 1 questionable, 1 out
The Redskins have 7

This does not include all the players in the league that are on suspension. As you can see, we aren't the only team with injury issues, as this is still (despite Goodells attempts) a very violent sport and injuries DO happen.

Good research there. It begs the question of why we can't adapt and are a .500 team while other teams seem to persevere through their injuries. Just food for thought.
