We'll have to see how bad Johnson is hurt. I think Henry is expendable if Johnson just has a very minor injury. He's shown enough tonight he's superior to Henry.Tate out for the year, Slaton a small injury, but an injury none the less, now J. Johnson has a bum toe. Wow.
Chris Henry did make a few nice runs though, but he does seem to go down easily.
For real man. He's an upgrade over Henry and he did better than Slaton last year.time to look at Moats again
I tend to agree. Booty looks like he has room for improvement. Upside. I suspect we're looking at the very best that can be wrung from Orlovsky. He reminds me of David Carr in his ability to pull a screw-up out of his hat. In four preseason games I've yet to see an opponent with a backup I wouldn't trade Orlovsky for in a heartbeat. That's never a good sign.Chris Henry seemed to be hitting his stride a little bit as the game wore on, which I guess is good. Personally, I like Jeremiah Johnson, because he's shown some ability to break tackles, which is something that's sorely needed on this team.
I've seen enough from DanO. If Kubiak has any time at all for tutelage, I want it spent on Booty.
And it isn't even that good! Some QBs that have that knack at least do brilliant things with the ball some of the time, and then they frustrate you with the mistakes (good Rex/bad Rex, Jake Plummer, etc.). DanO hasn't done anything spectacular. Or if he has, I missed it. Booty made some really great throws tonight, and some really off throws. Considering how few reps he's received, and the fact that he still looked better than DanO, pretty much puts the issue to rest in my mind.I tend to agree.

Booty looked relatively good. Booty looked relatively good. But, despite his supposed 6'3" stature, he played short. He showed some of the things you worry about with short Qbs. Multiple batted down passes behind the LOS. Weak throw on a play action because he had to pass around rather than over the pursuing defender. And several of his missed shots were because he had to try to pass between rather than over incoming defenders. Just an observation/personal opinion.I tend to agree.

For the moment, we are down to Foster and Henry. Things are not looking as bright as they were before pre-season started, that's for damn sure.OK, back to the RBs - Jeremiah Johnson has a dislocated toe. That's gotta smart.
I am sure I am not the only one google dislocated toe healing time - it seems 6 weeks. Does anyone know or will we have to wait?OK, back to the RBs - Jeremiah Johnson has a dislocated toe. That's gotta smart.
Even though you immediately think of the great toe, no one has identified which toe was involved.OK, back to the RBs - Jeremiah Johnson has a dislocated toe. That's gotta smart.
Can I quote you on that as generic info?Even though you immediately think of the great toe, no one has identified which toe was involved.
With a dislocated great toe, you can expect about 3 weeks before a supported shoe can allow possible return to action. That's taking for granted that there are no significant associated injury such as displaced fracture. They'll need to x-ray/MRI the toe joint before there can be a final disposition.
Sure, as long as it's with the qualifier that pain can be a significant factor to return, and that return to action does not equate to return to preinjury performance. Chronicity in these type of injuries cannot be ruled out.Can I quote you on that as generic info?
Thanks CND. Must spread rep.Sure, as long as it's with the qualifier that pain can be a significant factor to return, and that return to action does not equate to return to preinjury performance. Chronicity in these type of injuries cannot be ruled out.
Browns rookie RB Montario Hardesty left tonight's game with a knee injury. If serious, the Browns RB situation is in worse shape than the Texans.Time to call Cleveland and see if they're interested in parting with Peyton Hillis?
You know, even a dislocated LITTLE toe can be a devastating injury. This is what Marion Barber suffered in 2008 during the Thanksgiving Day game, missed the the next game. They tried to bring him back the last 3 games where he carried 13 times for 1 yd per carry and 1 fumble lost in the very last game/play he played. He then required offseason surgery.Thanks CND. Must spread rep.
That's kinda what I was figuring based on your other posts and other sources.JJ announced to be out of commission about a month.
I'd still want to hear what the exact injury entailed before I even buy a month.That's kinda what I was figuring based on your other posts and other sources.
3-6 weeks.
You thinking it will be longer because of associated (probable) damage?I'd still want to hear what the exact injury entailed before I even buy a month.
Bummer...not happenin'...With that said, I would still take Sage back if he becomes available and willing to return.
I believe a month is the "best case scenario" that Kubiak is trying to present for whatever. To know what the "most accurate scenario" you would need to know what the "collateral damage" really is. I'm also doubtful of Slaton's realistic return date of the Colts game. Maybe for the purpose of detracting Colts game planning. If he is put into that game I wouldn't expect too much.You thinking it will be longer because of associated (probable) damage?
