Another Ingram setback
Cornelius Ingram, a talented second-year tight end who was out all of last year because of torn anterior cruciate ligaments, has a "significant Baker's cyst" on the back of his left knee and calf, and will not travel to Kansas City, the Eagles said Thursday. Ingram also was out his last season at Florida with the same injury.
Ingram, who never seemed to regain his explosiveness this training camp, had been slowed in recent days and had an MRI exam on Wednesday.
He had the cyst drained at the Rothman Institute in Philadelphia on Thursday.
According to the Mayo Clinic's website, a Baker's cyst is "usually the result of a problem with your knee joint, such as arthritis or a cartilage tear."
Fourth-round draft pick Clay Harbor had already taken over the second tight end role in practices. Ingram may be headed to injured reserve for another season or could be cut.
That Harbor pick is looking like a very smart move on their part. Sucks that we never got to see what Ingram could have been.
harbor will be a smart move if hes good
i dont think it takes a brain surgeon to take a te in the mid rounds of a draft as insurance for a guy who might never play again
and even with harbor they will bring in a veteran

It's like they took the dent out of his chest and put it in his knee.
Florio reporting he'll be IR'd.
IRed for life.
Trent Cole will have a MRI on his ankle. And we pray...
High ankle sprain is my guess. Pimp looked like he got knocked out, but they said back injury
So Cole will not be 100% to start the season. Not good.
Good thing they have so many fastballs to throw at the opposition.
No one ever hits a fastball.
They do have Tapp. I'd say they are better prepared for an injury to Cole or at DE in general that at any point in recent years. Tapp's not light's out, but he's pretty solid.
Killa Cole's ankle has no structural damage. Mild sprain, should be ready for week 1.
:deion
Lingering issue all season.
Two first names. He'll be fine.
BTW, HOF Ingram is practicing today.
QuoteHerremans leaves practice; DeSean and T. Cole out
Todd Herremans left Sunday's practice early, although he walked off the field under his own power. He was limping earlier after running drills, however.
The Eagles guard missed most of the camp with soreness in his left foot. He did return a few weeks ago and played in the third preseason game against the Chiefs without incident.
In other injury news, wide receiver DeSean Jackson (neck) and defensive end Trent Cole were not at practice, as expected. Defensive end Juqua Parker (ankle) and center/guard Nick Cole (knee) took part in the early portion of practice. Cole filled at left guard after Herremans departed.
Center Jamaal Jackson (knee) took some repetitions during 11-on-11 drills.
Also, Macho Harris, who moved to cornerback in the spring, was getting some time at safety.
I shall retain an agent and offer my services to the Eagles as an interior lineman. Couldn't be worse than what is already out there, right?
Herremans - sprained ankle, opposite side from the surgically repaired one
Sapp - getting MRI for knee injury in practice (and getting ready to catch the IR stash by the Eagles)
Simms - wrist/forearm strain
Pimp - upper back strain and getting wisdom teeth out tomorrow
Dmitri Patterson - groin strain
Killa - ankle sprain
Gotta trade for an offensive lineman.
I don't think there is any help at this point. I can't think of one legitimate guy they have. Peters is looking like he could be an epic bust.
Peters is easily their best healthy lineman, with Justice a distant 2nd. The penalties are infuriating, but at least he blocks people.
epic bust is fairly strong.
More like inconsistent.
At some point during this season Juan Castillo is going to blow his brains out.

Good point. An undrafted TE can hardly be considered an epic bust at LT.
When you give up a first round pick and pay someone tons of money that is exactly what he is if he isn't completely dominant.
He can for the team that traded a 1st round pick for him and gave him an assload of cash.
But he's not. His mental game is infuriating, but he usually executes the physical part just fine. Unlike Stacy Andrews/MJG/Nick Cole/McGlynn/etc.
Somewhere on the internet is an angry Bills fan swearing up and down that they never should have gotten rid of him.

I had a bakers cyst for 35 years until I had a total knee replacement. I would have it drained and it just filled up a week latter. It is like an air bag for a knee that has to much movement in it.

I can work with that.
Ricky Sapp to IR.
Shocking
I really thought Sapp had a chance to stick around. He has some sweet skills.
Me too - he will make the team next year. He needs to bulk up a bit and work on developing another pass rush move.
I didn't see much from Sapp at camp or in preseason games that makes me think he'll amount to much. He needs to add about 30 lbs. of muscle. I think his ceiling is Chris Clemons.
he has more talent in his left scroat than clemons whole family tree...whether he manifests it is another story but i dont think its possible for two players to have more different ceilings
He's basically Bryan Smith. $20 says he doesn't make the 2011 opening day roster (on the Eagles) either.

Jamaal Jackson - likely torn bicep
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat
Line played better once he and Peters went out. So far I'm wondering if that's really going to be a bad thing going forward. Have to see how they do next week.
Peters wasnt out long though, he came back in.
Can Jayson Werth play O-Line?

Eagles lose Jackson to torn biceps, Weaver to torn ACL
Posted by Michael David Smith on September 12, 2010 8:02 PM ET
The Philadelphia Eagles lost a football game to the Green Bay Packers, and they also lost two offensive starters to major injuries.
Eagles coach Andy Reid confirmed after the game that center Jamaal Jackson suffered a torn biceps, and fullback Leonard Weaver suffered a torn ACL.
Jackson suffered what had been termed an elbow injury in the second quarter. Weaver's knee bent the wrong way in a pileup.
Quote from: TexasEagle on September 12, 2010, 07:47:57 PM
Line played better once he and Peters went out.
That's because the Packers played a different style of defense with Vick in the game. With Kolb they pinned their ears back and attacked because they knew Reid would be throwing every goddamned down, Vick forced them to tone that down a bit.
Jeff_McLane
Reid: Barnes (wrist strain), Bell (toe strain), Buckley and Herremans (ankle sprains), Laws (oblique sprain), Peters (knee sprain).
jraanan
Jamaal Jackson is a triceps tear, not a biceps. Not sure if that makes a difference.
caplannfl
A source tells FOXSports.com Weaver suffered damage to at least three ligaments in the injured knee, plus nerve damage.
Weaver's injury could be a bona fide career ender.
first thing i thought of was Napoleon Mccallum or Mcgahee.
Yep, I thought of McCallum and then Garrison Hearst because even though his was an ankle it was severe nerve damage.
And what the farg with all the injuries?
I wonder what the backlash will be on them for allowing kolb and Bradley back into the game.
They're taking flak according to Sal Pal for Bradley being allowed back in. And they should, especially when a guy is falling down uncontrollably. Reminded me of Sami Kapanen trying to make it to the bench
Kolb I understand because he looked fine on the sidelines, Bradley was punch drunk and would've been stopped from fighting if this were a boxing match. Also consider there was only 5 minutes left in the half so it's assinine to throw him back out there.
Kevin Kolb and Stewart Bradley failed concussion tests Monday and were sent home from Eagles practice facility.
Hopefully they send Reid home next.
I'll say it: Bradley being out hurts the Eagles more than Kolb, at least right now. I would be very happy if Stewie could play Sunday and Kolb could not.
Jackson and Weaver officially out for the season.
And yes, losing Bradley hurts but the rest of the defense looked fairly good yesterday. I don't know that it will kill them. Vick might have looked good yesterday, but I still don't trust him to effectively guide the offense at this point.

NFLPA says Eagles acted "appropriately" with Kolb/Bradley (http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/Reid_Kolb_is_number_one_quarterback.html)
No Reid firing over this situation.
Players get injured. Reid gets contract extensions. FML
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5568272
Eagles still havent been cleared for sending Kolb and Bradley back in.
Get yo popcorn ready.
I love how Andy came out yesterday saying they've been cleared, and now they arent.
he never said that.
they were sent home yesterday because of symptoms and they said then that it wouldn't be until Wednesday until they were reexamined
He said that the union said they were ok, and that he backs Rick Burkholder with any decisions made. He also said he cares about the health of his players and had a weird laugh afterwards
I wish he would care about how he uses timeouts.
yeah, but he never said they were cleared to play.
but yeah when he said that "My main concern is {laugh} the health of the players." it sounded hilariously awful.
This isn't about when they'll play again. It's about the Eagles being careless by initially sending both of them back in the game.
Exactly, he went out and said that the Trainers/Team have been cleared in any wrongdoing for sending them out by the PA, but the PA came out and said they havent made a decision yet. I just find it hilarious that they went out yesterday on the defensive, and lied about where things stood.
Every article I read yesterday said the same thing. It seems to be a new update from the NFLPA. Whatever.
gold standard
it's hard to believe that they didn't think this guy:
(http://i56.tinypic.com/b87kvs.jpg)
had a concussion
They're saying that they didn't SEE that play so that they had no idea THAT happened.
They were all too busy tending to their starting QB who couldn't remember his name but went back out anyway.
At least Bradley and Kolb have excuses for being mush-brains... What is the explanation for Reid and Marty?
Quote from: PhillyGirl on September 14, 2010, 12:48:34 PM

almost to the point that i am rooting for mcnabb and against cobb just to see both of them combust
Ok, first of all, lumping me with Jay right now is preposterous.
I WANT KOLB TO BE GOOD!
My hate is to Reid. NOT Kolb.
Truth is he played like suck. There is no L in suck.
Hence my comment.
Should I be honored that you used my name along with your favorite word?! Preposterous!
I want Kolb to be good too. So getting lumped with me ain't so bad
Put me on record as not being too upset about the Eagles letting Kolb and/or Stewart back on the field.
Sure, from my couch it was clear, but whatever. Maybe they could have done better but to go Al Sharpton over it is stupid. The sport is deadly dangerous, we've always known this, and it involves concussions, and everyone taking part (in the NFL) is a grown up. shtein happens.

Yup
So no news if Kolb or Bradley are going to be in Sunday? I am just hoping this isn't a re-occuring injury like it was to Westy last year. If so, we can kiss both of them goodbye. Hell we might as well kiss the sport goodbye.
cobb is def out and i would be shocked if bradley plays
At this point they have to save face. No way either of those guys play. And if they can't beat the Lions without them, it doesn't really matter anyway.
In case the other CF was holding out hope, it's too late. Bradley and Kolb are OUT for Sunday.

To go with Vick's rib cartilage injury, Shady McCoy has a broken rib too. Neato!
farging jesus.
He broke his rib farging Jesus? I'm not even mad; I'm just impressed!
Well, wouldn't you be inspired to put in a little extra effort?
Asante Samuel and Riley Cooper will likely play.
Shady is a "toss-up."
Vick is a longshot (there is no way in hell he can play this soon).
Mike Bell, Joique Bell and Eldra Buckley make me feel pretty confident.
Two Bells in the backfield. JUST TRY AND DEFEND IT YOU CHICKENfargING shteinHEADS
Kevin Curtis has a highly-treatable form of ball cancer. I post it here because I fully expect Reid to bring him back this season to "get in there and compete."
Oh, and Asante Samuel and Riley Cooper are OUT for this game. Chad Hall will travel with the team and could be activated off of the practice squad.

QuoteThe good news is that dynamic running back LeSean McCoy returned to practice on Friday and is now expected to play a "full game" according to Reid. McCoy suffered a rib injury last week in the loss to the taterskins.
Through four weeks, McCoy's impressive development has been one of the highlights of the Eagles offense. It's early, but he's improved his pass protection and is doing a fair Brian Westbrook impression otherwise. McCoy is fifth among running backs in yards from scrimmage and second among running backs with 23 catches.
especially the injury part. hopefully he's 100% soon.
:-D

Jason Peters OUT Sunday. King Dunlap will start.

Vick will throw for the first time today but Kolb will get all practice reps.

pimp - in good spirits....in the tranining room today...concussion with much neck an shoulder soreness..."real stretch" to play this weekend
bunk - progressing but cannot practice yet
ricoop - will practice tomorrow
vick - making progress....can only practice at half speed
im pretty sure anyone who was at the game can say this, but i heard the collision all the way from where i was - and by no means was i close to the hit.
Like the McDougle hit on Eli... That one I heard from the stands. Were you standing next to me that day?
Is the league office looking into the hit? Defensless player, leading with the crown of your helmet...
I know it's football, and I don't know if Pimp would be any less hurt if Dunta had went in with his eyes up, but you can't, or aren't supposed too, lead with the crown of your helmet.

I think so..that hit on Eli was awesome. Yesterday, not so much.
if the pimp hit was a penalty for being defenseless...which is just a joke...does that mean there can not be anymore blindside hits in the mold of a sapp clifton....because it doesnt get more defenseless than that
and are safeties allowed to come across the field and destroy guys who are going up for a ball?
like where does it stop?
I think you could make some progress by getting guys to wrap up more...spearing a guy with a 30 yard head of steam is patently reckless and not terribly good football, though it does make for big hits...
which brings me to: if you want guys to stop doing these things, featuring these plays in highlight packages all week long isn't helping matters.
i don't get it either...dude was going for the ball...other dude was trying to crush him. so if the defensive guy doesn't know you're there, you're supposed to just stop and wait for him to see you? maybe give him the heads up before you crush him.
not to mention how many safeties and even LB's use the shoulder knock to tackle anymore....almost all of them.
How many times do you see a RB coming through the line full steam and you have LB's and DB's pinball tackling to bring the guy down? Its easier to do than lunging open armed and getting injured, and alot of the times more efficient because the guy is so low to the ground (unless your A. Peterson).
Just because he is a receiver now you're supposed to change your tackling habit? Given the speed of the game, plus they are mentally trained to knock the ball loose for a turnover would be so hard to do.
im sick and tired of goddell trying to Hoyda up this league.

On Sunday, the Eagles' DeSean Jackson and the Falcons' Dunta Robinson were knocked out of their game after a frightening collision in which Robinson launched himself head first. Both sustained concussions.
Ravens tight end Todd Heap took a vicious hit from Patriots safety Brandon Meriweather that Heap called "one of those hits that shouldn't happen." The team was in contact with the league about the tackle.
I don't know if the league is even looking into it, or if Reid has asked them too. All I know is what the rule says, you can't lead with your helmet.
What was great about tonights game was when they showed clips from some badass safety that's now a coach on the Titans. At least half his hits would have been illegal today
Chuck Cecil
I remember when he hit a TE on the Skins named Ron Middleton....absolute kill shot.
Thats a bang bang play, and if Robinson didnt make that hit, Djack would have peeled off another TD because he was going to beat the guy running with him. Sucks, but i'm not goign to cry and want to take the fun part out of the game. They want to make this shtein basketball

They need to have traveling calls, that would greatly benefit the Eagles pass heavy offense (last couple of games aside).
Good plan. Make the ball carrier do something similar to a lacrosse "cradle" so that the defenders don't have to hit as hard to knock the ball loose. Brilliant!
On sportscience, they said the Desean hit is the equivalent of getting hit with a sledgehammer.
How many car accidents is a sledgehammer?

Injury riddled Colts versus the Eagles playing at home after a bye week.
Interesting matchup from a gambling point of view. I wonder what the line will be.
Eagles have won like 12 in a row following a bye, haven't they?
eleven
Something like that. Largely because non-gameday activities are what Reid is best at and two weeks of prep time plays right into his coaching strengths.
He's actually 11-1 if you count the Super Bowl.
i dont think andy has ever lost after the bye
i believe last time they lost after a bye was ray rhodes last year
Sounds like the Colts are saying, "OK, we have a bye and then play a NFC team. So, farg it. Let's get healthy."
Or maybe it's not just a conspiracy....
Dallas Clark was just put on IR.
I shudder to think what Manning will do to the Eagles secondary.
Pimp passed his concussion test and is on track to play.
Bunkley is likely to play but might be limited (partially due to Dixon playing so well).
Both Peters and Dunlap are banged up but at least one of them should be ready.
No word yet on Ellis Hobbs being injured, unfortunately.
So whats up with Nate Allen?
He's not going to play Monday night. Haven't heard anything about a longer-term prognosis.
QuoteAsante Samuel wasn't at the start of practice on Friday making it the third straight day that the Eagles cornerback hasn't worked out with the team as he nurses a knee sprain.
With the Bears game just two days away, it's looking more unlikely that the starter will be ready to play on Sunday in Chicago. Eagles coach Andy Reid will have an official injury update following practice.
Joselio Hanson has been filling in for Samuel at right cornerback.
Defensive end Juqua Parker (hip) was also absent from practice for the third straight day. Defensive tackle Antonio Dixon, who left Thursday's practice early with an abdomen injury, was at practice but was without a helmet.

Christ, you're a moron.
In related news, Banner slit his wrists and is out for the year.
Asante playing Sunday or what?
Vick out for Sunday (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1Y73sPHKxw)
Avant's status for next week is up in the air with a concussion.
Allen officially moved to IR.
Jeff Owens called up to take his place on the roster.
Antonio Dixon will slide back to linebacker, and Moise Fokou will start taking reps at safety.

this cant be true?
buried in that game sunday is that the eagles have now lost their top two drafts picks from last year to serious knee injuries....that could hurt big time down the road if that draft turns out to be lost because of the injuries...it also makes it that much more important for chaney/coleman/lindley to turn into players
Correct, you spotted the part that wasn't true.
But Allen is done and Owens gets a shot.
Wide receiver Jason Avant passed concussion testing and practiced. Avant contends he did not suffer a concussion; the team said he suffered a "mild" concussion, blocking for DeSean Jackson on Sunday's game-winning punt return

Avant then went on to explain to reporters that The Joker will stop at nothing to take over Gotham and he is the only one who can do something about it.
Jorrick Calvin out for season with back injury.
Such a shame. He was such a great contributor.
Sooooo who's returning kicks now? buckley?
Maclin, Hall or Buckley
Who will take his roster spot? My loins are burning in anticipation.

Maclin, Hall or Buckley
Let's keep key people off the givem-a-concussion portion of the team, please.
Receivers don't get brain injuries???
Dunno, but I'd rather not have Maclin standing back there while a bunch of guys are running full steam right at him when we have brain damage fodder already on the roster. Buckley's not good for much else so stick him out there at the tackling dummy position.
Jeff Owens blew out his knee again...2nd time in 3 years
Vick, quad contusion. Let the Kolb audition begin.
If it's just a bruised quad I'll take it. That shtein's sore but you can play through it. It's the knee liniments and shtein that I'm worried about.

Good. Let Vick rest that thing as the 3rd QB on Sunday. Kolb gets the start.
agreed. no reason to play vick sunday. let him rest and remind his o-lineman of what happens when they eat shtein.
good to know that we all agree vick shouldnt play sunday
I think they should play him.
damn Owens F'ed his knee pretty bad....patella tendon repaired, had microfracture surgery done by the Tommy John guy, and he still needs ACL surgery too
I guess they'll have to find a new 5th defensive tackle in 2011.

Sounds like he got McGehee'd.
At least McGahee had an excuse with a helmet bending his leg the wrong way. Owens got his from wandering too far outside the hash marks...

I just read this. :-D
I think they should rest him against GB
Does not bode well for wost manneans' balky calf:
"@toddherremans: Any of yall ever done acupuncture before?"
Herremans, MJG, and Bradley all listed as Questionable.
My take:
-need wost manneans in there and playing effectively to have any shot
-team is probably better served without Bradley this week - Packers are a passing offense, and he is slow as shtein
-MJG is the only one that didn't practice at all today, so he is also the one who is least likely to play - Nick Cole is the most likely fill-in, but Jonathan Tamari says that King Dunlap has seen reps too. Not sure about a 6'8" guard.

Weaver says on FB that he's undergoing another surgery tomorrow
Well, cross him off, then!

:( Poor guy.
Awful news, though we already knew the situation was bad. The Eagles finally get an All Pro at a position they've ignored for years, and fate does this.
At least we can still read his tweets about going to Lowe's, eating burgers, and watching TV.
Yeah, you know you're farged when they say J.R. Reed's got an easier road to recovery than you do...
Does this mean he's going to tweet more or less?
depends on what God's plan is for him
Is anyone offering a line on what Gods plan for him will be?
god minus four and a hook....but that could change depending on whether the game is played in heaven or hell
Sucks for you...FF got in on that when it was still God -2.
Wow...Weaver got injured on his first carry of the season. Now I understand what Reid is doing by passing all the time...he is protecting his running backs. What an angel.
Buckhalter and Westbrook say it didn't fargin' work.

Nate Allen: I'll be ready by summer
Eagles rookie safety Nate Allen said he'll be ready to play by the time training camp rolls around -- if there is a training camp.
Allen, recovering from a torn patella tendon, said he will be "100 percent" by the time training camp is usually held, late July.
He might not be ready by mini-camps -- again, if those happen -- but will be ready to run and cut by that time, which is usually around April.
Allen is right now working on his flexibility and strength -- doing body-weight squats and walking in a pool -- at the NovaCare complex. He's there from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Complicating his recovery is the potential NFL lock-out. If it happens, he will be barred from having any contact with the team. Allen said he hopes to get a complete rehabilitation schedule through June or July so he can keep working on it on his own, even though the cost will have to come out of the rookie's pocket. He plans to work out with private trainers in Arizona.
Allen said he had saved his money, just in case.
I hope to hell he's not deluding himself.

Nonsense...don't you remember when Buckhalter came back from rupturing his patella tendon?
The patellar tendon isn't usually as bad an injury as the ACL/MCL. Very realistic.
So they say. And he's still basically a child, so maybe there's some stem cellls up in that joint, knitting shtein together better than new.
He should eat a baby for the stem cells
just revealed that brandon graham not only had torn acl surgery but also microfracture surgery on the same knee
not that i thought hed contribute much even if healthy but i think its safe to say he will never be anything
One year they'll learn to stop drafting defensive linemen.
Now they will have Abiamiri AND Graham collecting dust at that position. Sweet.
