During the game, it sure looked like Key was hobbled by that same knee that he struggled with towards the end of last year. Did anybody else notice this ?

He appeared to be trying to hide the fact that he was hurt.....but at times it was very evident to me that that knee is bothering him.

By all accounts he is a very tough guy who plays through pain.....but I am wondering if he has finally hit that wall that all veterans hit. And I am wondering if he will be able to finish out the season.

Looked fine to me.

Actually at the game, from what I saw, there were three people looking hobbled up. Julius Jones, Pettiti and Chris Canty.

I was surprised how well Julius Ran in second half, considering I saw him limp a little bit after first series.

Key takes a beating each week and his body must be pretty bruised and battered. Of course he is not one to complain about his battle scars.

Agreed.

From what I can tell the guy is tough as nails.

I really believe that he is working through a lot of pain. But I believe it is effecting his ability to perform...and that it may become a bigger issue as the season wears on.

Hopefully my perception is wrong on this

Didn't at one point Keyshawn was twisted like a pretzel when being tackled, maybe this was the answer.

Heard an interview with JJ after the game yesterday....He also said he would not be surprised if he was not 100% for the remainder of the season. He then followed that statement with.... he would simply have to deal with it the best he could because he wants to play.

Honestly, I thought JJ looked hurt almost every time he got up off the turf. I did see Key cringe once, but he's one tough mofo.

I didn't notice anything wrong with Key, I saw him get a good block on a running play although I saw Glenn get at least two.

The past 2 games I've seen Key with his leg pinned and bent almost backward/sideways and I thought for sure he was going to stretch/tear a knne ligament, but he got right up and trotted back ot the huddle. Key's flexibility is as impressive as his toughness.
