McFadden is giving all he has, but I'm very concerned because he couldn't even make it the entire game without needing an IV. It's only a matter of time before he gets hurt. Then we only have Christine Michael. My lord.

Even the best prepared, most conditioned athlete can get dehydrated at any time.

The people who are praising Murray must not be watching PHI games, dude had a career year during a contract year and got paid. The fact is PHI overpaid for a guy who is good overall but not great at anything.

Plenty of our players have needed IV's.

Philly fans are basically screaming for Kelly to give Mathews more carries and make him the starter over Murray.

I hope so.... I don't like our chances with McFadden staying healthy and only Michael as a backup. IMO-- a trade for Matt Forte or Lamar Miller makes a ton of sense. Not only would they would be an upgrade in terms of talent and vet leadership-- but they would allow McFadden to be used as an excellent change of pace RB.

Forte in particular would be a "splashy" JJ type-move. Would give the team a morale boost and would add a bona-fide playmaker on offense in both the running and passing game.

Forte is injured iirc

I get that, but given his injury history and as big a fan of DMC as I have I can't ignore it. He's had two back to back 20 carry games. I just think it'd be wise to sign or trade for another back.

I still have no idea exactly what he did.

On Talkin' Cowboys, they said the issues he was dealing with are "significant". I don't want to speculate, but it is significant enough that even media that know what it is, aren't saying.

The DC.com squad holds their tongue when the powers that be say so. Charlotte Jones runs that operation btw.

well all those people saying we need to cut someone to "send a message" should be full of glee now.

Been waiting for that response. Really surprised it took this long. Somewhere Jimmy Johnson is smiling.

trade deadline today...do you think....nah...would have been nice though...

This season is too far gone to be thinking that a big trade can save it. Unless some team is willing to part with a capable quarterback? But even then, how long would it take that guy to get comfortable in this system?

No, I see us as sellers, not buyers. But I don't see much we can sell either.

Actually, there are a number of athletes that would disagree with you. After a bunch of tennis players started dropping like flies at the US Open this year, a few of the stars came out and said it was unacceptable. And these are tennis players telling others to "toughen up." LOL.
