Oh gosh. I hope a moderator was just doing it to jinx it not being a serious injury. I guess we'll find out tomorrow then.

So have we played a game this season where our opponent HASN'T tried punk ass stuff on us?
Each game it's the same thing. This time it cost us Cushing.

Sharptons return doesnt concern me .... Dobbins has outplayed him at every opportunity.
Losing Cushing for any amount of time would certianly hurt .... But having a guy like Dobbins behind him is a luxury not many teams have. Dude just makes plays. Sharpton would have to outplay Mister Alexander before he took someone's roster spot at ILB and he hasnt done that since he joined the Texans.

Players on all teams get injured for all kinds of reasons. It's pointless to dwell on those reasons.
We lost Cushing due to injury. Period. Losing key players to injury will derail this team's hopes for SB run more than anything else. We need to say healthy. And that's where luck comes in. |

Huge loss, but at least this happened early in the season, so they can adjust to the loss by the time playoffs come by.
Hope it doesn't effect us too much.

Injuries happen...... gotta deal with it and move on. Wish Cush well in his recovery if it is an ACL.

Very freaky note.... We lost Mario in the first half of the 5th game last year. Didn't hurt us too much then. Next man up!

I have just accepted that this is the nature of the game. You are going to lose a key/star player at some point during the season, and often it's going to be for the entire season. That is why depth and coaching is so vital in the NFL.
Most all teams are going to go through this. The Giants lost some key players on their road to the Super Bowl last season. Other teams have already lost some key players this season. Honestly, I am not sweating losing Cush for the season. This team has too much other talent and great defensive coaching to allow Cush's absence to sink them. |
