Color-Coded Alerts
No one should jump to conclusions after watching the starters play about 15 snaps. No one should eat mozzarella sticks, either, but they are still on the menu. Here's a look at some reasons why teams may already be cranking up the color-coded alert system.
Bears Receivers: ...The good news is that Eddie Royal looked great against the Dolphins and Jeffery's boot is mostly precautionary. The bad news is that Cutler did not even look in the general direction of wide receivers not named "Royal" on Thursday night. Yellow Alert.
Giants Safeties: ...There are communities built atop radioactive waste dumps built atop sacred burial grounds that have fewer bizarre health problems than the Giants. The pope is coming to the East Coast in a few weeks, and Tom Coughlin and the Mara family are practicing Catholics. Perhaps a "blessing of the injury report" is in order; if it bursts into flames, at least we can stop worrying about the statistical improbability of the Giants' injury problems.... Bright Lava Red Alert.
Eagles quarterbacks: ...While many teams refuse to discuss player injuries, Kelly provides such arcane scientific explanations (he failed the sub-molecular boson transmogrification test before practice on Tuesday) that you wish he would just not comment on injuries. So Bradford is either being prudently preserved for the regular season or secretly fitted for a robot knee.... Colors of the Spectrum the Human Eye Cannot Perceive Alert.
Cowboys Running Backs: Gus "the Bus" Johnson bruised his way into the end zone against the Chargers on Thursday...then separated his shoulder later in the game. Johnson got plenty of action because Joseph Randle and Lance Dunbar were nursing minor injuries andDarren McFadden is Darren McFadden.
The Cowboys were left without enough guys to take handoffs, one of many reasons why the Chargers game collapsed into a preseason singularity of punts and penalties more quickly than even the typical August opener. But Randle and Dunbar have returned to practice, and the Cowboys offensive line is still a police escort down the interstate.Aquamarine Alert.
Jets Offense: The Jets offense doesn't have a panic button. It just has a Jets Offense button. Jets Alert.
