Re: Reiss: BB: "Bruschi has broken wrist, won't play in preseason"
Well, as long as it is the preseason, then I think we can survive.
But the mounting injuries better not be the harbinger for another league leading IR list.

Not according to Felger:

According to sources, Bruschi broke the scaphoid bone in his wrist, an injury that, if it requires surgery, can take at least six weeks to heal.
...
Most scaphoid bone surgeries involve inserting a screw in the bone to ensure proper healing. Unlike other breaks, this one does not allow for players to play through the healing with a cast covering the break.

Re: Reiss: BB: "Bruschi has broken wrist, won't play in preseason"
It could be worse but it is not good, it highlights the lack of depth at LB and the fact the an aging LB core has not had any infusion of new blood. LBs have basically been ignored in the draft and free agency since Colvin was signed in 2003. It is confusing considering decent LBs can be had in the 3rd, 4th rounds of the draft.
I am on a bit of a roller-coaster ride with this team, I still see the play-offs but don't see enough to say "Championship caliber"
