    Rocky, Larsen has a bruised hip and it was too sore for him to go back in, but it is not believed to be severe.

    Josh Shaw will be missed. He was starting to get an attitude at the DT position. Marcus Thomas is looking better and better through the season but Robertson may have been an error.
    I guess I just love the Josh boys. Shaw, Bell, and Barrett.
    Note to Brandon Marshall; DO NOT BE T.O. or PLAXICO or PACMAN
    Carrying a concealed weapon without a permit.. first federal offense. Leaving the sceen of a shooting without reporting it.. second federal offense. Trying to cover it up and involving team mates and medical professionals.. last offense.
    Money can bye you out of a rape charge... ask Koby Bryant but not a shooting.. ask Pacman or a federal charge.. ask Michael Vick.
    Barak Obama has the best idea. DO NOT ALLOW CONCEALED HANDGUNS. One of his major statements was " I will not take away your right to protect your property and family by owning a weapon. But there must be policy about handguns".

    Shaw stayed down for a really long time, so It's good to find out now that he dislocated his elbow and tore some ligaments, I guess thats as good a reason as any as to why he couldn't get up and walk off the field. I never realize how much your elbow helps you walk, so thank you Josh, now I know. Lacking toughness seems to be a central theme throughout our entire defense.

    I'm just sayin, I've dislocated my shoulder before, I know what it feels like, and I'm not saying he wasn't hurt or that it doesn't hurt, I'm just saying he could have gotten up and walked himself off, I wasn't aware that your elbow being dislocated prevented that and that maybe had he gotten up and walked to the sidelines, he could have shown some toughness, something our defense is sorely lacking and something that has been brought up here on numerous posts. I liked Shaw, but c'mon, he couldn't gotten up and have walked off himself? And by the way, name calling gets nothing accomplished, maybe you should be a defensive tackle in the NFL, seeing as how tough you are in you blogs ricki69

    Shaw played a full game this year with a huge gash in his calf. I think he has proved his toughness. Ever think he was trying to avoid further damage to his ligaments by letting the training staff determine what to do? Sounds like intelligence as opposed to weakness. Just my two cents.
