Wonder how bad Wright's groin strain is
seeing he also he that issue in training camp.
Spievey’s “toe” isn’t “turf toe” right!?
The Dis-Assembly Line - The unofficial, official name for the next best D-line in football.
I thought I seen Wright stretching his groin at the end of the game last week.

That was my first fear when I saw him listed with toe problem

"Bobby Carpenter is expected to start in his place."
And the Dallas fans rejoiced under the delusion that Carp can’t play.

I bet none of them have seen him play a snap since he was in Dallas
I hope he gets a nice pick and blows everyone’s mind

Oh, this is nice....
I’m looking forward to this. Carp is going to be all over the place, and cause some headaches for Romo; probably a pick too. That would be sweet anyway.

So is that why he bounced around what 4, 5 different teams?
Tony Romo 2011's League's Most Valuable Player
The guy has made consistent strides since joining the team
I would rate him above average in coverage and average in run support. For a back up LB, he is everything a team could want.
He showed potential in Dallas, you know he did. He ended up being the odd man out there and thankfully we snapped him up.
I could care less how many teams he played with before he came to The D. What he does now with his chances. That is all I care about and I have been impressed with his play.

Not liking a lot of names on this list
I want/wanted to see a lot of these guys make it to week 4’s game.
We have lots of feet and groins this week
I don’t see the Phonz on that list. That means he should be out there right?

or inactive for the week..

Mark it down
Stefan Logan has a big game on Kick Returns… without their KO specialist he’ll get his chances!
agree fully
I said it a week ago, logan is going to be the game changer and no one is talking about it. were going to have great feild position all game sunday

You definitely want
Phil Costa healthy because there’s no way Romo picks up a botched snap with Suh breathing down his pathetic little neck! Crush them Lions, I’m a Lions fan and a Cowboys hater. We Broncos will do our best to help you lead the NFC North outright as of late Sunday evening, wish us luck!

I would bet
That if they weren’t ready to go, we’d already have signed a safety.
"You've got to respect your opponent, no matter who it is. You respect him best by going out there and beating him up." - Calvin Johnson
they will play
if your on the lions team and have a chipped nail you would play.
probable means deff. yes u go
questionable means you get some rest and your a go
doughtfull means your out and will contribute as much as sanchess completion rate
Coleman with perhaps Madison for pure ST if needed
but as Mav and sand point out, both are likely to play. sandvet pretty much posted the guide to translate the Leo’s injury report to reality lol

Do not like how big our list is getting
and if the Cowboys cry about injuries they can refer to our injury list. Wright and some of the others concern me and it’s to bad to see J.Durant not be able to go at all, he’s been playing extremely well. But Carp was all over the field doing a great job everytime he’s been out there so he should have a great game for us.
Wish Stovall and R. Davis would get better as it never hurts to have extra weapons + their special teams contributions. Would have liked to see Fairley just get his feet wet so he would be ready to go at Chicago but no need to rush him at all.
BOOM!~another Motown Touchdown-courtesy of Matthew Stafford
Remember....were talking injuries and Schwartz...
Don’t pay much attention to anything. It’s not worth the effort.
Earlier this week someone tweeted to LoJack asking him if he was injured and he came back wanting to know where the person would get that idea.
He was covering up a tweak, so they preach to these players not to anything.

I bet Fairley sneaks in for a few snaps.
Or does the injury list prohibit a team from doing that?
That goddamn Okra and beans got you Oprah in jeans. Seems to me a little lean cuisine, wouldn't hurt much- Agh don't touch! -Obie Trice
If he's declared out
I’m pretty sure it’s against NFL rules to have him play. If for some reason he DOES play, I think most teams would consider that extremely bad form… sort of like a gentleman’s agreement that “hey, he’s declared out and we’re not trying to pull a fast one for competitive advantage.”
by LionGuy016 on Sep 30, 2011 11:31 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
if he's on the inactive (not injury list, the inactive) list he wont be dressed for the game
so there would be no chance of him sneaking in for a few snaps.

Yeah. They were saying earlier in the week he'd play, albeit sparingly
I figured at first glance Fairley – OUT was just gamesmanship from Mayhew & Schwartz. Oh well. Romo & Dallas would’ve been a fine NFL debut for him.

Wait.
Did they say earlier in the week he’d play? I only remember media conjecture and no confirmation.

I thought I remembered a tweet that made it sound quite probable
but I could be wrong.

Probably from the media, though.
I know from what JS and Gunny were saying (as non-committal as they are) those were some definitive maybes. I never really counted on him playing and didn’t even expect him to get many snaps if he did dress.

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere.

here is a good place
I’m glad to hear he’s pissed. I figured he would be after the play we’ve seen up to now. I fear it’s a hit to see Ekejvowels out and now Wendling dinged too. You can bet Crossman is taking some heat and is passing it on.

Crossman looks like a wildman on the sidelines also.
That is one intense staff.

Not shocked they are holding Nick
Bet we see him next week. Must be the phonz is ready to go huh? Thats fantastic

I would love to see him make his rookie debut on MNF.
Can you imagine if he got his first sack on national television? I would just die, the kool-aid would be raining.

A few of those injuries worry me
Having Durant out is crap since he has been so good against the run, although it will be nice to see Carp go out there. Our secondary is a bit banged up, that is a concern.
Thats the one hit against Durant.
He’s known as being injury prone. He will be back next week though.
Of the Questionables, Eric Wright is the one we need out there the most.
I really like the way he has played for us and hope to see him out there helping to shutdown the Dallas passing attack.
I don’t mind if Lawrence takes a seat this week, as Flu and Willie Y. are ready to take more snaps. Gotta love depth!
