Is Maroney injured? (1 Viewer)

He defintely dinged his hand last week. He was holding/looking it after a run and it was very obvious that he had some discomfort.
That being said there has been nothing locally about this being an issue. With the Pats anything is possible but my guess is he'll be good to go on Monday night. The fact he has been practicing all week and is not on the injured list in any capacity would tend to support that as well.

It was Eric Kasillius' (sp) show. He has some injury expert that he runs through the week's injury report with. He must have been in a hurry cause he glossed over alot. I've got to play Maroney this week due to bye's. I didn't put alot of stock in the report but thought i might find out more here.

Maroney may be a good play this week. Astroturf and Dillon are probably a bad idea, at least at his current age and health. May see Maroney more than the past few week. And I'm sure he played there some while at UM.
I also heard McAllister might be out. If so, play Bush even against a strong Bal D. I think they'll have trouble covering him on the screens.

Not sure I would put too much into the "It's astroturf" discussion. At least I wouldn't. As for the "it's in Minny" discussion, I could buy that if weren't the Pats.

I have to start him regardless so I'll hope for best anyway.diesel7982

Did he miss any practice time?
Not sure how to read this lack of info. 
I'm sure hoping to hear something soon.
(As this is a Maroney thread, I might as well mention that all I have to do is hit "approve" and I'll be getting Maroney for Foster and Favre. I really think that, if he is healthy, there is some decent upside for the rest of the year. Call it a hunch.)

I saw him take himself out of the game after a good rush; he was holding his hand. I never found anything official and I'm starting him.

The vikings are the number one rush defense right now so good luck with starting a possibly dinged 2nd string rb against them.
Huh? Where did you hear this? Link please. Nowhere I've seen (rotoworld, espn, etc.) does it say Deuce might be out...

It's true that the Vikes are ranked #1 against the run, but look a little deeper and that ranking isn't so impressive:Wk 1: Played Washington with an injured Portis who may have been rushed back too soon - he missed the next gameWk 2: Carolina (ranked 25th in rushing offense)Wk 3: Chicago (ranked 24th in rushing)Wk 4: Buffalo (ranked 23rd in rushing)Wk 5: Detroit (ranked 29th in rushing)Wk 6: byeWk 7: Seattle without AlexanderThey've yet to be tested against a solid running team. New England is currently ranked 6th in rushing offense.They've yet to be tested against a solid running team. New England is currently ranked 6th in rushing offense. Maroney may not be a good play because he's a dinged-up 2nd stringer, but I wouldn't bench him just because he's facing Minnesota.

The Patriots are still coached by Belicheck. If Maroney has a hang nail, he will listed on the injury report. If he isn't on the report, you can pretty confident he isn't hurt.

yeah, was afraid of that..when i originally posted it never said the post went through, so i stopped ane re-posted. bad idea. 
still, echo or no, nowhere have i seen that deuce might not play. Good point. Based on this thinking, and researching everywhere I can, yet finding nothing hinting at an injury, I have decided to go ahead and trade for him before this weeks games. (Foster and Favre for Maroney)
