Reshawn Slater down with a leg injury

I watched 10 minutes of preseason football last night and what a shit show. Missed assignments galore. Anthony Richardson was injured because an O-lineman whiffed his assignment. Its such a jail break cluster out there for most of these games. So many starters not playing. How you glean any useful information as a coach is beyond me.

This is a big blow to the Charger's O-line, just like Darrisaw was last year. Cam Robinson had one decent game for Minnesota, his first one, then he sucked eggs the rest of the time.

The Slater news is awful...

I dont think (in the case of KOC at least) they rely on pre-season too much for starter assessment. I recall reading he places heaviest emphasis on these intrasquad scrimmages (i.e. Pats this year). 

I bet we dont see JJM or the starters much if at all after Saturday - till that MNF game.

As much as I want to see JJ tomorrow.....part of me doesn't. All I'm going to be focusing on when he's in there is 'don't get injured'. You read the NFL injury news this morning with what, 2 or 3 games played last night, and already with the major injuries. A game of attrition.

Looks like the Eagles lost starting OG Landon Dickerson.

The hits keep coming....

Sources: The #Saints fear C Will Clapp suffered a serious foot injury that is believed to be season-ending and requires surgery.

He’s awaiting final confirmation from testing results. A tough blow for a player who was set to be a key depth option on the interior.

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said QB Jordan Love is undergoing a procedure on his left thumb. It’s a ligament issue. That’s why he had it taped yesterday in practice. Said the hope is for Love to return to practice next week.

Sounds like the Eagles dodged a bullet with Landon Dickerson. "Only a meniscus" they say. Isn't that the injury that sidelined our young QB last year? I'm guessing Dickerson chose the clean up over the repair, which gets him back on the field sooner. All considered I'm glad JJ got the full repair.

They are saying he /mightcan be back for Week 1, which I think is just garbage butterfly smoke for the fans. Color me shocked if Dickerson plays in Game 1.
