Uuuuuuggghhh.

 

Holy Crap.

 

Damn! Sure glad we got Dobbins is right! Will be interesting to see who of our DP's is moved inside to backup Dansby & Dobbins.

 

WTF? What did he do, drop a weight on his foot?

 

If true he's done as a Dolphin. The FO must have known this was a possibility with the trade for Dobbins and drafting Edds.

 

Hahahahahahahaha!
Crowder is done in Miami.
Now we have a chance to make some plays at the ILB spot.
Dobbins was brought here for a reason. To start!

 

I don't know why you're laughing. This a loss for our defense.

 

Wtf!

 

laughing? Really? :no:


Why on earth would anyone laugh at someone getting hurt? This is pathetic.

 

How'd he hurt his foot?

 

A guy on our team that has contributed and that was going to be a contributor on Defense gets hurt for the season, and you are rejoicing?

 

Not cool Bro, we don't laugh when other players are injured, we shouldn't when one of our guys suffers an injury.

Dobbins and Edds now have more opportunity, I have to think Channing's Lis Francs was more serious than we were led to believe, and he probably had a setback..which is really easy to do with a foot injury.

 

Lis Francs foot injuries come in different grades, channing probably had the most serious kind, with a plate with screws, if he lifted weights or ran at full speed he could easily have rebroken those foot bones.

Which means he starts back over on a 6-9 month rehab

 

Not the news I want to hear. I agree there is nothing funny about Crowder getting injured. Our defense is going to suffer without Crowder whether you believe it or not. Like as said Crowder is not a Thomas caliber player but he was still effective and plays and important role. Many times when he was out with injury the past 2 years in those games you could tell there was a hole in the defense. Hopefully now Dobbins or Edds can step in and fill the void.

 

Wow that sucks you never want to see a guy get hurt like that.

 

Ugh. I think he needs to seriously check out his career options (NFL Network?), because I have a hard time believing the Dolphins keep him as his contract balloons into a final potential comeback year. Especially if either Edds/Dobbins proves to be a stud.

 

I'm not laughing because he is hurt
I'm laughing at the Dolphin fans who think he makes a difference.
I always thought Crowder is a liability so I am celebrating his absence which I hope is forever with the Dolphins.

 

Well, you can see where people would get the wrong idea.

As for out on the field, this reduces the non Irish players to:

YBell
JAllen
WAllen
Vern Carey
Brandon Fields
John Denny
Ronnie B
RW
Q

And now Dobbins being signed to a extension makes more sense, and that was maybe a month ago.

 

It was the same hole that was there when he was on the field.
Now lets watch Dobbins fill it
Crowder is a loud mouth below average LB.
I won't miss him.
I'd bet the Dolphins won't either.

 

I feel sorry for the guy but this doesn't really bother me that much from a strength of the defense point of view. I just don't think they'll have that hard a time finding somebody to match his production. I might be wrong, we'll see. If there is something that he did exceptionally well, somebody please enlighten me. I know we missed him when he was out but that's probably as big an indictment of the lack of depth at LB as anything. I imagine this means he won't be back in Miami.

I hope Ronnie Brown doesn't have similar setbacks.

 

I'm not so worried about this with Dobbins signed, but once again our MLB depth is stretched thin. Also, I'm only seeing this on the newswire via PFT, so I don't know how reliable it is.

 

Killahp...now don't go and start walking on any ledges:

 

:lol: I looked around and didn't find anything either.

 

Oh I'm excited to see Dobbins play but my point was that in the past two seasons the games that Crowder did not play in the defense was worse off without him. For example this quote from an article on The Phinsider by Matty I.

http://www.thephinsider.com/2010/6/18/1523846/channing-crowder-doesnt-care-what

 

That would only prove that Crowder is better against the run than Torbor which isn't saying much nor is it shocking.

 

Wow, dude. Just wow.:pity:

 

Well, if he is in fact hurt, its unfortunate, but it makes our trade back in the first round an even better decision.

 

The thread title has been changed until we get further confirmation.

 

Call me crazy..but couldn't have it been a OLD wire item running at the bottom of a replay game from last year? Can anyone check if he hurt his foot the same week as the week of the game they are showing on NFL Network? I bet it is

Rotoworld pulled the story.

 

Great news. Hilarious error.

 

Rotoworld has removed the story now.

 

Crowder isn't injured
Oh well back to mediocrity
This blunder is fuggin' hilarious
What a fool.

 

You mean back to hating on the guy.

 

Those Starts are Incorrect...Why do they Post them, they think we are clueless???

I hate it when people give out the WRONG STATS...

Crowder has only missed 3 games the last two Seasons... ONLY THREE...

Those he missed were in 2009, NY JETS, NE, and PIT...

The stats were...

Against the Jets... 3.2 Yards per Rush... 40 attempts...127 Rushing yards...

Against NE... 4.5 Yards per Rush... 24 attempts... 109 Rushing yards...

Against Pit... 5.6 Yards per Rush... 36 attempts... 202 Rushing yards...

You average these 3 games out and it comes out to...

4.4 Yards per Rush... 146 yards per game... and this Pit game is an outlier, the Defense gave up on that game...

I like Channing, think he is an average LB, that can make a big play here or there... the problem is that he overthinks his position and tries to be all over the field instead of reading his keys and staying on his assignmnets...

With a better talented compiment around him this year he should play to a level that we saw him play in 2008...

Here is hoping he is alrright and ready to contribute...

UPDATE: This report was a mistake, the result of an NFL Network crawl from 2009 running on a re-aired game today. Channing Crowder is not out for 2010. We apologize for the error.

Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder's is reportedly over before it ever got started.

I assume your talking about the stats I posted from that Phinsider article of the games Crowder was out the past 2 years. Well the past two seasons Crowder missed 4 games,he missed the game against Kansas City in 2008 and that's also included in the stats.

 

No. He missed 4 games last year. he left the Texans game.....when?

He also missed the KC game last year.

the numbers are not kind to your argument.

 

For pete's sake, if one more person quotes those nonsensical stats about run defense with, and without crowder I'm reaching for the LOL kitties.

Crowder has as much to do with effective run defense as I do with the heat signing Lebron.



See those red, god awful pff grades? they are from 09 and the games were:

Indy
NO
#2nd Bills game
#2nd New England game

All losses

See the green "good" grades?

SD
Carolina
Jax
TN

We play playoff teams caliber teams, Channing is exposed as the mediocre to bad player he can be and is, against poor or .500 type teams, gosh, Channing is average or a tiny bit above the baseline.
