Roddy White, Sam Baker don’t practice for Falcons
12 replies
The Falcons offense was without two of their starters at practice on Wednesday.
Wide receiver Roddy White and left tackle Sam Baker were both on the sideline when the Falcons got started on their preparation for Sunday afternoon’s game in Miami.
White’s still being bothered by the sprained ankle that’s been plaguing him for more than a month.
Baker was questionable for last week’s game with a knee injury, but, like White, he was able to play in the game. Baker, again like White, hasn’t looked 100 percent to this point in the season, something that is less than ideal for a player at such an important position on the line.

Those high ankle sprains take forever to heal. I don't expect for White to be right until the second half of the season.

I'm not entirely convinced that Sam Baker's backup wouldn't be a better player than Sam Baker.

Asante Samuels didn't practice either.
I think this would be big if he doesn't play.
Even if he does though, he won't be 100%. Wallace could have another big game.

I hope Baker plays. It could help OV have a break out game.

This is where sh&$ can creep up into the minds of our players, don't want them thinking about how hurt the falcons are, they need to be crazed dogs for this home opener..this is the start of a new culture, we need them to play hyped..

Ryan Schraeder, another guy who should have been drafted by the Dolphins. He was such an obvious talent available in the 7th round.

So obvious he lasted until the 7th.

I think the injuries creep more in the minds
Of the fans instead of the players.
This game is shaping up like a rondevous with a meth whore behind a dumpster. Even if we come out on top (pfffft!), NFL fans still won't hold us in high regard...and if the meth whore wins, we're way worse.
Sure, fin fans have tried building our own meth straw man. Pointing to injuries to Keller and Soliai, but we're simply too healthy...probably healthier psychologically, since Keller was a Jet (Old Keller, LOL).
What we talking about?
