    MLF doesn't talk about injuries much. Probably won't know much until after practice on Wednesday.
    I can't run no more
    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

      More importantly, what about Crosby?

        It's a quad injury.

        There is some scuttlebut that it's minor.

        Real info will come out as Joe says.

        Mase? I dunno

          Mase looked like he bruised/sprained his AC joint.

            Not being a wise ass, but the injury is to his non - kicking side shoulder?

            I suppose total body balance is key to an NFL Place Kicker, but can't he just take a needle and get on with it?

              If anything, I would expect the left shoulder to be more important for a right-footed kicker. That's the arm that drives counter-balance to help generate the kicking force.

                Forgot about Crosby's shoulder injury! Pretty bush to cream a kicker like that on a broken play. Crosby continued to handle kicking duties but his kick off seemed a little short, no touch backs in the 2nd half. Don't know if he was hurting or that was elements.

                  He made a couple of kicks and kicked it off out of the end zone, I think, after the injury. The problem, as I see it, would be if coverage fell apart on a kick off, and the old guy needed to make a tackle.

                    Doesnt hurt us at all. Williams and Jones are fresh. Two games left with a bye and 8 days rest this week. As long as it's not severe, all that matters is that his young career doesn't get derailed with a bad offseason.

                      For being such a big guy, Dillon seems kinda fragile. If the money was the same, I'd take Jamal Williams over him - but of course, it isn't. Neither or even both of them is adequate to replace Aaron Jones.

                        I like him long term. This year he's a rookie and rookies suck

                          Long term IMO Dillon is going be be really really good; him and Jones are a wonderful combo
                          TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

                            Quad injury, sound like MLF is cautiously optimistic he'll play. They'll know more on Wed and probably bring him along carefully.
                            I doubt he's fragile; he basically WAS the Boston College offense.
                            I'm a little wary of calling him fragile or injury-prone just yet --- you don't log almost 850 rushes in 3 years into mostly loaded boxes by being fragile.

                              Too bad Jones is gone after this year.
                              Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.
