Looks like a lot of the injuries have made a comeback on the field. Nate Allen, Drake, Carroo, James, and I'm sure Rey will be soon. Urbik is still out and Pouncey did take some snaps. I am hoping we weathered the storm. I just want this team to field a healthy team. No more guys off the street and 3rd stringers.

well as long as we aren't blowing achilles or acl's, guys should be healed up quick

we just need to get through this game w/o significant injury, as we know the last game won't be played by starters

It seems to me, and of course I could be wrong since I don't follow other teams as closely as I follow the Dolphins, there are certain teams that never seem to have issues with their offensive lines- New England, Dallas, Green Bay...they always seem to have healthy strong offensive lines and aren't having to piece together a front 5 week after week like we seem to be.
Maybe we should take a look at what THEY'RE doing, especially Dallas. If we could maintain a strong healthy offensive line, we'd be unstoppable with the level of play makers we have.dolphin25 likes this. -
Stuff happens to all teams... Cowboys Tackle, Tyron Smith has had a knee injury and the Packers OG, T.J. Lang a foot injury. Both are questionable to start the season... the Pats lost their 1st pick in the draft to a knee injury, and LT Nate Solder hasn't practiced or played in either PS game due to injuries.

What's really bad is that the number of injuries and time missed due to them are going up steadily across the league over time (see figure 5). And look at figure 4. Except for concussions, injury risk is highest in week 1, so be prepared!
