Eagles' Shawn Andrews' ankle worse than expected? Out for year? *Merge*

[ndanger]

You're incorrect - he sprained his shoulder taking a leak yesterday.

Yeah and it wasn't because he has a big unit.At least that's what Stephen Peterman says.

heh, I thought it was impossible to hurt yourself taking off diapers

guess adult diapers are pretty tough cookies

We better bring the house against Philly this season. Blitz them up the middle like they've been doing to us the past decade. Karma baby

 

[TheSkaven]

I hear he'll miss the entire preseason. If that's the case it will take him a few regular games to get back into shape. Lucky for Philly they are about 10 deep on that offensive line of theirs.

Are you serious or being sarcastic. They actually don't have very good depth at all on the o-line.

Someone should introduce Demarcus Ware to Donovan McNabb real quick because they are gonna be getting to know each other real soon.

 

[David276]

you'd think 'Facin Fools would be all over this thread, hopefully he will be alright but that is a big loss for them, and a gain for us . anyone know if he will be back by the time we play them?

If i recall the schedule, both our meetings with the Eagles are late in the season. Let's not get our hopes up - its way too early. I'll gloat when we get a 3-game lead in the division with 3 weeks to go...

Eagles just keeping screwed!

 

[bbgun]

Wow. That's a significant blow. Goose praised their depth in the trenches; they'll need it.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

That is just wild conjecture and has nothing medically to base that assumption on. Guys with a hunch are nice but I will wait and see on that one.

Until he goes on the IR hes not done for the season.

are you the same samad that posted nude gay pictures on the insiders a few years back?

 

[SaMaD_KhARoME]

yes... yes that was me

well played.

 

[playmakers]

Im from Philly and have to say this will be a huge loss. He can play and with Runyan only getting older their Oline which was once a strength now appears as a weakness.

 

[Wood]

way to soon for this to be taken as fact. BUT if it is true the Eagles season is over - most of the offensive line scheme are based off of Andrews....he is without a doubt the key to their line.

 

[Wood]

I wont belive it until he is placed on PUP. But if this is true.....I dont celebrate it as Andrews was probably the best offensive line I have seen since Larry Allen early on. I wanted to see what Wade could do going up against that heralded eagles offensive line.

 

[David276]

we will have to see, nothing against him i wish him back to full health, but that works for us

 

[Jake0]

Wish philly wouldn't get all dinged up... especially their best players. If they lose they have this excuse to fall back on. Always better beating a team at full strength.. oh well.

 

[CaptainQuint]

A reporter should have snapped a photo when the big kid removed his boot. But my guess is that his ankle swelled up to twice its normal diameter, in less than 10 seconds, and that he'll play again in 2008.

 

[Nav22]

If they lose they have this excuse to fall back on.

Please. If we win the division, there won't be an asterisk just because Philly got hit with injuries.

To me, it's not better or worse to beat a team at full strength... a win is a win. I don't recall getting a free pass in previous years when the Cowboys were hit hard with the injury bug.

This happens every year to many teams around the league. Either you deal with it and persevere (like the Pats have done) or you let it ruin your season.
