The loss of Cushing will be huge. The guys they have replacing him aren't even close to as good as he is in space/coverage.

It's seeming more and more likely that Tebow might get a start eventually. Mark Sanchez has had a miserable season so far (minus the Bills game). But just go look at his statistics for this season. There is no reason he should be a solid starter with those numbers.

Sucks for Cushing as that was a blatant chop block.

Didn't see it but Sirius XM was saying the block was pretty sketchy this morning.

Looks like clipping. From what I can tell the block was within the tackle box, but it looks like the ball had left the zone.

Thinking about this more, the Cushing injury brings the Texans "back to the pack" so to speak. Prior to this I thought they were easily the cream of the crop in the AFC. They are still a contender but I still have to put the Patriots on top even at 3-2. Houston would be second with Baltimore a close third.

Some very strange stats: Mark Sanchez wears No. 6, lost the 666th MNF game, has 6 TDs, 6 INTs, a 66.6 rating, 6.6 yards/pass and a long of 66 yards.

Tebow prayed for him.

The Tits and Jags are the worst teams in the NFL, imo. If you have any Steeler players on your FF team, I'd recommend playing them.

I think Pittsburgh rolls. They are due to smash on someone.

Any word on Polamalu? I really dislike Mundy.

Polamalu was ruled out, along with Woodley, yesterday.

Great hit by Will Allen? He got trucked by a guy who didn't even see him.

Maybe they made an official announcement yesterday but Tomlin basically ruled them out during his Monday presser due to it being a short week and the nature of the injuries.
