Injury Update

[Dillen]

Young replaced Herremans but they never said why

Herremans limped off but didnt seem to be in a ton of pain, he was back on at the end of the 2nd quarter.

DGunn reporting that he's hearing 9totally unconfirmed yet)

That Westbrook will have the knee scoped on Tuesday and sit out until after the BYE WEEK.

I can dig that.

Injuries:

Mahe tweaked his ankle - should be OK

McCoy - hip ponter

Barber - hip pointer

That's it.

That's 4 weeks (NO, TB, JAX, bye)

That's 4 weeks (NO, TB, JAX, bye)

i was thinking the same thing....d gunn said he'd miss 2 games, then the bye.
anyway, they'll miss westbrook in that jags game.

TB sucks, we can win without Westbrook. Figure win 1 of Jax/NO, thats 6-2 going into the bye with Westbrook coming back healthy. I like.

[General_Failure]

I'm gonna go ahead and say 1-2 for that stretch without Westbrook.

Yeah _- I didn't catch that. He said 2 games they thik he'd miss. Maybe he, like me got the bye mixed up

[hunt]

Or nobody is counting TB as an actual game.

Czarnecki on FOX

There is a good chance that Eagles RB Brian Westbrook (left knee) will try to play, although he apparently will need microfracture surgery, similar to what Carolina's DeShaun Foster underwent, once the season is over.

Hmmm....

Andy says no. No way.

[The BIGSTUD]

I don't know how I feel about that scope. If it is totally needed then ok, but I don't want to lose Westbrook and go into the bye 4-4. The Bucs have a solid defense, and so do the Jags, and the Saints haven't lost at home yet.

[MDS]

Bruce Gradkowski doesn't count.

Actually I'm scared 'bout these 3. Next week is the let down game, Jacksonville is the going into the bye game we never win. Let's hope the parade of drunken Eagles fans down the lake in Bourbon Street can help.

[hunt]

the bucs will be 0-5 going into that game...i think the eagles can pull that one out.

[BigEd76]

Westbrook was asked about the microfracture rumor...

"Who told you that?"
.
.
"The only people that know what's going on are me and the group of doctors, so you gotta question the source..."

Says there's no truth and he'll see what happens when the swelling goes down a bit.  Said he feels fine...
