They are but the offensive line has gotten healthier over the last two weeks and I think Perines recent success is at least in part because of that.CBS reported their line is pretty banged up. Any concern?
Are we serious? UghFrom Yahoo:
Is Samaje Perine playing Thursday night?
Perine was a late add to the injury report because of a finger injury, but so far there hasn't been any serious concern over him missing Thursday night's game against the Giants.
If Perine is out, Byron Marshall and LeShun Daniels Jr. would handle RB duties, with Marshall carrying some sleeper value in the favorable matchup. For now, consider Perine a must-start unless we hear more about the injury.
Any concerns, locals/Washington fans?
Redskins report every single injury. He's playingAre we serious? Ugh
More worried about him being more likely to fumble and get pulled.Redskins report every single injury. He's playing
Pulled for who? Riggins?More worried about him being more likely to fumble and get pulled.
He's had more. Maybe only one lost on record, but he was having trouble receiving the hand off, so there might be one of his errors accredited to Cousins.He's had one fumble all year right?
Marshall started out as a RB for Oregon and converted to a WR the year he had 74 receptions.I see.
I am very skeptical of Marshall. However he did have 74 receptions in one season for Oregon which is a lot for any RB in a single season.
I think Gruden is in over his head, so anything may be possible. But another team's practice squad guy coming in on a short week seems out there.You think Gruden cares?
I would not be surprised to see Jamison Crowder take some of the dump offs that Thompson was getting. Could even line him up in the backfield.Is it simply impossible that Perine winds up being a three-down back that catches four or five passes a game? I've been holding onto Ajayi in a short bench, half PPR league, but I'm half tempted to drop him and take the plunge here for a potential stud the rest of the way.
As someone starting Perine and Crowder...I'm okay with this.I would not be surprised to see Jamison Crowder take some of the dump offs that Thompson was getting. Could even line him up in the backfield.
He had two fumbles in preseason which is kind of where he lost some of the head coaches trust.He's had one fumble all year right?
I'm pondering Perrine over Jordon Howard. I'm concerned with Phil getting ahead early and Chicago limiting Howard's carries. Just wish Perrine was playing in an early game so we would know for sure the finger is no big deal.Who you starting him over?
Im pondering Perrine and McKinnon

He was my emergency pick-up last week. Couldn’t believe I was able to claim with the 11th priority.Yeah I need a good game out of him
I played rivers and Gordon so far. Pretty decent.He was my emergency pick-up last week. Couldn’t believe I was able to claim with the 11th priority.
Had a great week - and with no Chris Thompson he could be a monster tonight.
Add 5-6 catches for 40-Ish more and I’m on board with that.I played rivers and Gordon so far. Pretty decent.
But went against Allen
Really hoping for 80 and a td
Kurt taking a few sacks by not using Perine who has appeared wide open as a dump off optionHe is open a lot, Cousins needs to throw it his way a bit. Perine is poised to eat.
and now is he is out with injuryKurt taking a few sacks by not using Perine who has appeared wide open as a dump off option
Thank goodness. Washington would be smart to use Perine like the Saints use Ingram.Back in
I think better games are ahead but this game has not been greatThank goodness. Washington would be smart to use Perine like the Saints use Ingram.
The process has been right and still is. Nice close game, just needs a TD.I think better games are ahead but this game has not been great
Judging by the time of the posts they were just before he got rollingYou guys complaining about a 120 yard game?
He reminds me quite a bit of a young Mr. Hightower.Back to back 100 yard rushing games. Nice schedule ahead with below touches on a good offense. Barring injury this kid could be on a lot of championship teams.
