Thread: James hurting

How do you like that for timing?

The Vikings will not only be without suspended right defensive end Ray Edwards for Sunday’s game at San Francisco, but Erasmus James’ availability also could be in doubt.

James did not participate Wednesday during the portion of practice that was open to the media and had a wrap on his left knee. Coach Brad Childress said that James had “banged his knee a little bit” in Sunday’s game against Detroit.

Now that really makes the whole Edwards issue a bit more desparate.
Does anyone know if we have any DE's on the practice squad?

Brian Robison with 5 sacks, what!?

Just give him some Domoso and he'll be fine......

....I wonder if horse drugs are the NFL substance abuse list

Doh!!
Hopefully, its just a little soreness from his first big game back...

I like Robison just fine, but he'll need some breaks too.
Time for the 3-4?
Pass rushing Dontarious "Reindeer" Thomas?
Or, maybe Farwell or Vinnie?

I don't think so marrdro, we had Scott, Udeze, James, Edwards, Robison, and Mitchell at DE to start the season. We had so many Scott was playing a lot of DT too.

I think chiller knew about the suspension coming up. Why else would he take 5 DE's into a game. Now it all makes sense why James was starting. He was setting the other 4 up for the rest of the season. Trying to prepare them for more of a workload.

If James can't go, I think that leaves us with 3 DE's.
Udeze, Robison and Mitchell.

Darrion Scott was put on injured reserve a while back.

I'm hoping that James doesn't turn out to be injury prone... just when you need him to step and be ready this happens - sheesh

Hey, look at it this way then, we now have room to carry an extra WR on the roster this weekend.


Go Allison.
