Coach Tony Dungy said before today's practice that if Harrison could practice and was not sore, he would start.

Harrison has missed 10 of the past 11 games while recovering from a left knee injury.

If Harrison plays does that keep Manning in the game longer?

Deciding between Manning and Garrard for my finals and am in a bind. Both look like they will play alittle but may not be too long.

Picked up Garrard thinking i would need to play my backup qb but didnt expect garrard to have to sit too! and rosters are frozen.

I think the main reason for playing Marvin at this point of the season is so he can shake off the rust in a game that doesen't matter instead of trying to adjust while sudden death is in effect. So I would expect Manningto keep working patterns to Harrison until they feel they have shaken off the rust of him missing `10 games.So they should play the 1st quarter at least.

Harrison, who has not played since Oct. 22 at Jacksonville, went through a full workout Thursday and was able to take part in Friday's practice with no apparent problems.

Coach Tony Dungy said before Friday's workout that if Harrison does play, it would be limited. He would not commit to a number of plays for the eight-time Pro Bowler.

"But he'll start the game and we'll see how it goes," he said.

Dungy said earlier this week if Harrison played, he might keep quarterback Peyton Manning in the game longer to work on their timing.
