IDP Digest 9/8 - 9/14
This space will become more of a news and discussion thread during the season. Stop in Thursday morning for a recap of the week's Forum discussion of injuries, replacement players, hot players, and trends.
And look for pinned threads on impact IDPs with still up-in-the-air injury status beginning on Thursday evenings.
WhoDat examines Bobby Carpenter and the Cowboy LB situation
Worth noting that Carpenter has been unable to find a position in Dallas as a first round pick of the Tuna. As WhoDat reported, Carpenter was indeed inactive in Week 1.
Reggie Hayward placed on IR with a torn Achilles tendon
Rob Meier to replace him in the starting lineup.
Justin Smith explodes for 3 sacks against the Chiefs
FBG IDP vets mixed on whether it's a sign of a career season.
Bramel tries to get the newbies off the ledge
General thoughts on the importance of not over-reacting to one week's box score without considering all the variables. Chaos Commish advocates Dan Morgan owners jumping anyway -- and taking Morgan with them.
FBGs discuss DBs who double as return men // Part Deux
These two explain themselves.
Patrick Kerney has a strained tricep muscle
No word on whether his barbed wire tattoo was also affected in the injury. Check back for updates. About his game status, not the tattoo.
WhoDat breaks down game tape on Michael Huff
Those new to this forum should pay close attention to WhoDat's posts. Man knows his stuff.
FBGs discuss prospects of Ko Simpson
Worth taking a longer look now that Troy Vincent was IRed with a hamstring injury.
FBGs discuss the breakout performances of Week 1 // More of the same
Lots of good discussion on whether the top producers from last week are burgeoning studs or teases.
FBGs look into the prospects of Chicago rookie DE Mark Anderson
Anderson got some playing time in relief of Alex Brown and looked solid. Tenacious D (and others) break down his skill set and speculate on whether the overlooked talent might have an impact, and how soon.
