Sports Hub say's Woodhead to Try Practicing Today - New England Patriots Forums

Woodhead is going to give it a try today. Thoughts?

Just heard it... take if for what it is worth

We don't need him, but if the trainers tell him he can't make the injury worse by playing, he'll play. With several talented RBs behind him on the depth chart, he needs to suit up to keep his job. It's the brutal reality of a professional football player.

I guess Danny wants to play Sunday in a bad way.

I'm all for it. It would give me a warm feeling inside if he even abuses the Jets a little.

I almost prefer that he doesn't play so we can see more of Ridley. I like Woodhead catching passes out of the backfield but I'm not crazy about his blocking or running recently. And I love the guy.

I want to see the Vereen Machine, we spent a freakin' second round pick on him.

Fixed your thread title for ya.

Titles that say "Sports Hub Says Danny" don't help the clarity of our website and just annoy our readers. It would be much appreciated if you make the titles clearer.

Thanks.

I think the biggest news in this thread is that either radio station even in passing actually talked Patriots this week. Between Red Sox and Bruins talk all week, you would think the Pats were playing the Seahawks this week rather than the Jets. I can't remember the last Jets week where the radio stations totally ignored the Patriots. Probably around 2003.

This is a little harsh buddy.

Woodhead is the shiftiest back that we have and is better than them all on crucial 3rd down situations. He gives us the best screen game and check downs on the team. I agree that we have talent to cover up for his loss but saying we don't need him is just plain crazy.

I also understand wanting to see Vareen and Ridley more as well.

4 games into the season beginning to smell another wasted pick by BB

Been listening to my IPOD in memory of Steve Jobs as this week has been all Red Sox all the time.. some Bruins mixed in.

It has been a f..king painful week on sports talk radio..
