Stewart, Goodson, Gamble and Barnridge all questionable for Miami game

[R0CKnR0LLA]

bleh this crap again

Stewart is hurt ALL the time. Sure he never misses games but we've never really seen what he's fully capable of. There have been NUMEROUS games where he's look tentative, afraid to make cuts, only manages to handle a few carries and/or is completely ineffective. He plays through the pain and injuries which is very commendable but let's not kid ourselves into thinking a RB with a bum foot is just as good as one that's fully healthy.

He's extremely talented and I was really excited to see what he can do being 100% healthy for the first time in his NFL career but then bleh back to the same ole same ole

Wouldnt you guys rather them sit out and be healthy when the real games start? Who cares if Marshall destroys the other corners (imo he'd destroy gamble too, but thats another argument) ? It's a preseason game. Meaningless.

Can't destroy any corners with the way Henne looks. That performance was atrocious.

I for one doe not consider Stewart injury prone.

My only concern would be the risk of having Stewart as your only feature back....like we woudl have done if we let DLo walk.

Given his nagging (albeit never serious enough to miss games) issues, more than doubling his carries might not have been prudent.

Again, maybe our staff feels the same way and that was another factor in the DLo contract.

well, no point debating that now that Williams got his deal. I am over that.

I still think Stewart is gonna explode this year.

[Donald LaFell]

I still think it is unfair that Stewart gets the "injury prone" label out of Double Trouble.....NFL players play through and with injury. Stewart does that.....yet people act like he is Mr. Glass while D-Will has his feet up on IR.

It's nice that stewart has been able to power through but he's essentially had this injured achilles his entire career. How long until he starts missing games or it turns into something serious? Does he have some kind of degerative condition in his foot?

We're pretty much going to have to wait until the next offseason to see if this problem gets better with rest. I seriously doubt it will go away or get any better in 2011.

Coming after Stewart was "the healthiest" he's been, or whatever the article said. Shelf him for the regular season, that's fine, but an achilles injury is serious stuff. He and Beason need to get those things healed.

Goodson out with a bad case of fumblitis? Hope it's not contagious.

[The Saltman]

there have been more achilles injuries this year then any year before I think.

it will probably become an issue after his peak years are over.....

RB is a position the way the league is set up you can't show long loyatly toward.

[The Saltman]

I will say this for a guy that still had a sore achilles during the combine running a 4.44 40 for his weight is remarkable.

[SCMunnerlyn1]

Damn Barnidge . He really can't afford to miss much time with him being in a battle to not get cut.

that was turf toe.

he didn't develop an achilles problem until the 2009 season...and that was from compensating for his healing toe when he ran in 2008.

[The Saltman]

got it

[Crixtala]

i love how people on here turn someone being held out of a PRESEASON game meaning that they could need to be placed on IR

small dings keep you out of preseason games, not earn you a spot on IR

geez

[The Saltman]

where has anybody in this thread said Stewart would be put on IR?

[beastson]

Ima say it again, Gary gets cut, Rivera better leave town
