Did Merriman even play

[Vertigo_17]

Didn't see him or hear anything. Just wondering

 

[dguinta1]

I don' think so though not 100% sure.

 

[RedLine]

He was inactive for the game.

 

[JonJon]

Reports are that he stayed in the locker room crying because in his heart he wanted to be a Cowboy and couldn't look Parcells in the eyes.

Are you guys sure about this? NFL.com has him listed as having played.

They most definitely do not have him on the inactive list.

They show him as having played as a game substitution.

he didn't play. inactive. i see they have landon trusty. it's always a good sign to see former players are catching on elsewhere. except if they're named jimmy smith then it's bad

Well, its so good to realize that NFL.com keeps the most accurate of records....

 

[JohnsKey19]

I actually wish he did play. I don't think there's any way he plays as well as the other SD LBs played yesterday. They were all terrific. I'd take a few of those guys on my team. Foley is a beast!

No kidding....he was supposed to be a game time decision for them, so maybe they just never updated it. He looked like he was chomping at the bit in a tee shirt...:laugh2:
