      I am.

          They had to maintain their average of at least 1 player injured enough for IR per week.

          I'm sure somehow someone will find a way to get hurt and go on IR during the bye week.

              I'm pretty close to being there as far as Super Bowl aspirations go. I still think the playoffs are a real possibility though.

              All these injuries are going to make for a fascinating training camp next year. Young guys like Quarless, Bishop, Shields, C.J. Wilson, Jarius Wynn, Charlie Peprah, Nance, Zombo and maybe Starks are going to get valuable playing time this year they would not otherwise have gotten. The competition for starting jobs and roster spots will be great to watch.

              With that lawless crowd
              While the killers in high places
              Say their prayers out loud
              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
              A thundercloud
              They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

                I believe that only applies for the team that cut the player.

                  Nope. While he gets paid for IR, he can't play. The team that cuts him hast to wait an additional 6 (or was it 8) weeks, so they can't use this like a short-term IR.

                        Don't say that! If someone gets hit by a car, do they qualify for the IR?
