I took the liberty of quoting FuadFan's post from another thread as it is more applicable here & to give him proper credit.

Not the smoothest start towards his goal but nothing too serious. Also good news for E.J.

DE Ray Edwards said he has a low back injury but insisted it wasn't serious...

Well I hope it is nothing serious but it is a concern since back problems are usually not fixed overnight or even months. Didn't Urlacher have problems all season last year?

Special teams coordinator Paul Ferraro is one of the happiest people at Winter Park. With coach Brad Childress committed to his unit, Ferraro can pull anyone into his unit, including Pro Bowl RB Adrian Peterson. On Saturday, Peterson fielded a few kickoffs, something Ferraro said could occur during the season.

I know he helped us win that Bears game by getting a great return but this scares me. It is bad enough that he wants to see 2000 yards and most likely will be running hard often in games.

hes lying..he just wants to make himself look legendary when he reaches the all-time single season sacks record, which he promised to break

all kidding aside, hopefully this doesnt become a nagging issue..we need this guy to have a monster season opposite jared allen

I am sorry, but Ray Edwards should not talk, period. That is Kitnaesque at best.

he never guaranteed anything.
He didn't say he WILL break the record.
Kitna guaranteed the Lions would win 10 games.
Edwards just said his goal is to break the sack record.
Bit of a difference there.
