Vick Out 2 to 6 Weeks, McCoy Possible

Doctor says Eagles' Vick might be out 2-6 weeks, but McCoy possible

Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports last night, Vick told a radio show in Virginia that he expects to be sidelined 1 or 2 weeks; then he acknowledged he doesn't really know how long he'll be out, but feels he is a fast healer.

Eagles coach Andy Reid announced that Vick has cracked rib cartilage, "up high in that second and third rib . . . high in the sternum." Adding to the chestfest, Reid announced that running back LeSean McCoy suffered a broken rib near halftime of Sunday's 17-12 loss to the Commanders, then played the second half.

Reid did not offer any timetables, other than to say Vick's status was "day to day, week to week," and that McCoy "possibly" could play this week with extra padding. His injury presumably is much lower on his chest than Vick's.

Wow, would have been a nice time to have the Eagles on the schedule.

Figures Dallas would have them both times in the last month of the season.

Frankly there is more of a likliehood that he will get hit enough between now and then to be out anyway.

How the heck do you play the second half with a broken rib? McCoy is a warrior.

How broken?

Garrison did it with 3 broken ribs.
Meredith did it with a broken rib, a punctured lung, and pneumonia.

Only the new guys are warriors, for the amount of money and the armor they wear now a days, plus the rules in place, its a wonder they arent applauded for showing up.

I really don't think they will be a factor come December. Even when Vick comes back, he won't be the same. He got all his glory against the Lions and the Jags. The NFC East is physical. This will be happening more than once.
