Is he quitting? Did he give the full two weeks?

Lol. I didn't watch the game but my twitter feed was stacked full of tweets about him killing the Ravens last night.

[Pugger]

The Ravens didn't look very good for most of the game last night. I know it was just a preseason game but if I were a Raven fan I'd be concerned.

Lions being Lions:

5 personal fouls in a preseason game? Does that make them tough, aka not "soft"?

[Pugger]

That makes them what the are - thugs. I was reading the GDT on football's future's NE forum a little while ago and the NE fans were bitching about how dirty the Loins are. I was tempted to post that we see this crap from them twice a year.

Watching the game last night I was thinking what if Luke Kuechly and the Claymaker were in the same LB corps. Wow.

The Seahawks were playing very dirty last week v. the Broncos. Lots of late hits and little BS past the whistle. In a preseason game.

I really want to see Lacy v. Browner in the open field. I'd love to see him lay that dirty bastard out.

Kolb goes down with a head injury, there are concerns it could be career ending.

Some of the more cynical among us might say, of course, "What career was that?"

[Patler]

Diondre Borel was cut by the Titans today.

Apparently just another TC wonder for a couple years in GB.

Quick roundup; some of these might have already been mentioned:

Tony Moeaki breaks his shoulder
Stephen Gilmore out 6-8 weeks
Kevin Kolb's career done (concussions)?
Will Smith (the NO player, not the MIB guy) put on IR
The NFL has suspended Minnesota Vikings fullback Jerome Felton for three games without pay for violating the NFL substance-abuse policy. Adrian Peterson's job just got tougher without his lead blocker.
Chargers put Melvin Ingram on reserve PUP
SEA puts Jesse Williams (who I really liked pre-draft, before all the news about him having chronically bad knees leaked) on IR.

I expect many players to go on IR with cuts looming.

[denverYooper]

Lotta mocks had the Packers grabbing Jesse Williams.

[Guiness]

Why is Adrian Peterson not playing in preseason games at all? Is he healthy? No carries in game 3, and now they're saying he won't dress for game 4.

I can understand if they want to avoid unnecessary risk, but that's a little much, especially for an RB.

for his sake, I hope he plays no more.

Indeed

Why would he play? RB is the most abused position on the team and AP is the franchise. Rest him until the games count, because he will take a real pounding for the rest of the season.

Because according to conventional wisdom, no work in pads or camp results in torn ACLs.
