Not a whole lot of new info here, but I figured I would post what I heard anyway...
NY Giants -
Defense gets a whole lot healthier with Osi Umenyiora, Sam Madison and Antonio Pierce all coming back. They will have to wait and see how many plays Umenyiora can go. Last time Madison came back, he didn't make it through the entire game, but he was able to practice all week this time.
Cowboys - Mentioned that they have no injuries and are much healthier than the last time they played the Giants.
Colts -
Dallas Clark will be out about 3 weeks. They are hoping to get Stokley back this week to fill in that 3rd receiver spot.
Bob Sanders will be active today for something like only the 3rd game this season?
New Orleans -
Joe Horn practiced this week and will play.
M. Colston - is a true Game Time Decision
Kansas City -
Tony Gonzalez practiced on Friday for the first time since Thanksgiving and will play.
Cleveland -
Reuben Droughns will be active, but Jason Wright will start.
Buffalo -
McGahee had a bout with the Flu on Friday and didn't practice but he was feeling better yesterday and is expected to play.
San Diego -
Get S. Merriman back, L. Castillo will not play.
NY Jets -
Tim Dwight is done for the year. Mentioned that he didn't have many catches so it hurts them from a KR/PR perspective but not so much at WR.
Oakland -
S. Janikowski - his back tightened up on him and he wasn't expected to play today but then he started feeling better yesterday so now they say he will try to see how it feels before game time and determine if he will kick today or not.
Miami -
Ronnie Brown is out at least a few weeks and mentioned that Sammy Morris will carry the load and also mentioned that they brought in Patrick Cobbs.
Steelers -
Will be without their "heart" on both offense and defense with Palomalu and Ward out this week. Ward is only expected to miss 1 week after having his knee scoped while Palomalu is expected to be out a couple of weeks. Francesa said they shouldn't bring either of them back this season and just let them get healthy.
Seattle -
Hasslebeck - has a left hand injury which will only be significant for taking snaps from center. Mentioned that it will be cold and that could affect it even more.
