brown maybe, although he was also being impeded by incognito (#64). don't really see it on ninkovich:
What about the run blocking this season has given you any hope that the running game can get it done against a good run defense?

He has brought stretchers on to the field.Dobson was suppose to he the stretch the field/take the top off , type of receiver for tom.
Holy cow, Dola's left leg looks shorter than his right one! His left foot can't even touch the ground. Don't see how he can be ready by Sunday.
Hope we sign someone like Chris Matthews, but it seems doubtful on such a short week.
Can't go into Sunday with just LaFell and Harper healthy.
Amendola and Martin are both injured and Slater isn't an offensive player, as we all well know.
If there's a week where injuries finally bite us and supplement a loss, this is the week. Depleted WR corp, OLine nicked up, away game in a stadium that's known to cause trouble for this coach/QB, and a solid opposing defensive line and secondary.
Sunday will be a battle of wills it seems, Peyton or no Peyton.
Ware is an average player now as he is wearing down. He wore down this time last year as well.
Miller is the major concern.
I think the combination of the two is still very concerning. Ware even at 75% is still a formidable foe, and he had the same amount of sacks in weeks 8 & 9 as he did in weeks 1 & 2, so I don't know if we're quite at the point where he's totally out of gas just yet.
If anything, he hasnt played, his tank will be refueled, on the contrary, he hasn't played, and may not be in football shape.
It's all about motivation in these scenarios, I think history for him very recently says he's on the down end of his season, let's all hope that he just plain misses the game. He's still an all-time great type player, and those guys can have exceptional games at any point in their careers, even when they're truly toast.

Ware did not practice with a back injury (see report below). I see the Broncos defense as formidable nevertheless, especially against a depleted Patriots offense.I think he has a back injury as well?

I think you make an excellent point about players on borrowed time who can still make an impact, whether that be from pressure and disruption, or just the fact that the OL has to account for them.
I do believe we may be writing Ware off a bit early though. He had sacks in week 8 and week 9, and has been part of a pretty decent pass rushing tandem all year long. While he's missed the past two weeks, I'm not sure where all of the "he's washed up now" talk is coming from. Chances are that he's more than capable of putting pressure on our OL.
I understand. Does anyone know if they do practice on Thanksgiving day? I thought they didn't and that would give Danny an extra day to rest.They are pro athletes, I dont see a reason why they shouldn't.
i thought they practiced in the morning, home early (by 2ish) going off memory. I think this is for those that played on mondayI understand. Does anyone know if they do practice on Thanksgiving day? I thought they didn't and that would give Danny an extra day to rest.
