Injuries may play big part on Thursday

[dolphinator86]

I am not gonna project who will play and who wont but with the short week there is zero time for people to heal up.

Look at it like this: (and yes at this point all of these are maybes)

Dolphins:
Ronnie Brown- HUGE HIT to our o,

Fasano- Sperry looked good but Fasano is a great blocker,

Thomas- i know he came back but with necks you can never be to careful.

Panthers-
Gross- he was carted off never seen a guy play 4 days after being carted off

Steve Smith- was crunched up busted up his ribs, even if he goes he wont be 100%

thats two huge parts off their O...could make them so one dimansional because after smith there is a huge drop off and i dont know their depth on the o line but they could be facing alot of pressure off that side so passing might not be a good idea. Them being so one dimensional definitely plays into our hands.

If you have heard about an injury you can add or can update us that would be great.

If Steve Smith is playing, don't count him out no matter what injury he has. He is an extremely tough dude.

Jordan gross broke an ankle. And speaking of 1 dimensional this team is the king of one dimensional with their anemic passing game. And without Ronnie brown will struggle for 10 pts this week

Gross is out for the game as he broke his leg.

not saying this because of our injury issues, I was actually thinking it Friday when I realized we played on Thursday night: I hate these Thursday night football games!!! I think they are flat out STUPID league wide. Why Thurs? You think you are going to compete with CSI, Grey's, The Mentalist, Survivor, etc., for the big night of TV during the week?? The ratings show you are not. My big beef though is the short turnaround for the players of the squads....for a game that is not anything "special" (ie. T-giving day games, XMas games, etc.). It serves no purpose and makes no sense to me. I think it actually hurts the game. NFL...You want to make a real decision for a game at another night during the week? FRIDAY NIGHT!! Friday night TV ratings are dropping each year and reaching close to those of Saturday (why there are no longer original TV shows on Saturday if you didn't know). Friday allows for a larger audience, more viewing at bars while people are out, and an EXTRA DAY OF REST for the players. /rant
