not that hes such a big loss, but when is this going to end? im sure woods isnt too far behind Webster

looking at it in a positive fashion, i guess its not that big of a deal, lets just get all of these injuries out of our system in preparation for another Super Bowl run next season.

Does anybody know the record for the most players on one team placed on IR during the regular season?

I'm sure we are nowhere close to the record. Actually, I think Jacksonville and a few other teams have more than we do.

This will make 13 for the team, however five were in the preseason.

Let's be honest though, only two really mattered: Brady and Harrison. However if Adalius Thomas gets IR'd, that would be another huge one.

Albert Breer was on Comcast NewEngland Sports tonight show and stated that he hears AD is "not too far off ..."....and "he could be back for Arizona."

Any announcement who's taking his place? Does this mean Colvin officially will sign?

 

[HEY BRO! WHAT UP?]

WTF? They sign this guy for one game, doesn't play and now he's on IR?

Not much help left at this late date, naturally. Still, I wouldn't mind seeing Kelly Herndon, Andre Dyson & Sammy Davis brought to Foxborough for a workout. This Secondary is Seriously AFU.

In most businesses they call a guy like Webster... smart. lol

Hey - don't disrespect Webster - he learned the game from his adoptive father, 4 time Pro-Bowler Alex Karras.
