You said it...I almost started a thread on this one day, but I'm noticing more and more "injury timeouts" than ever. Am I the only one who feels like this is the case?

BTW I'm not finding a link for my Alexander-Woods comment. I will try and find link to support, hopefully I didn't dream that scenario up...I think it was Reiss Best and Worst section in Sunday globe.

No Colvin?

I can't recall him playing in the Dallas game. Am I wrong?

Colvin played...he's just been invisible the past couple of weeks.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Five-time Pro Bowl defensive end Richard Seymour did not practice with the New England Patriots on Wednesday, the first day he was eligible after starting the season on the physically unable to perform list.

Troy Brown, the franchise's all-time leading receiver, also did not practice.

Colvin was airbrushed out of the picture by the Dallas OL.

Seriously, that guy was as neutered.

when was that in the game what Q??? After what play??

He was hurt before the bengals game, only played a few snaps in that one, and has looked awful since. Coincidence or lingering injury problems?

Yea, watching him the past few weeks it's been obvious that injury has been hampering him. Nice to see he's not on this weeks report, maybe he's gonna get back to full strength? Getting Colvin and AD healthy for the Colts is going to be key.

Also, special teams contributor and reserve inside linebacker Eric Alexander limped off the field after making a tackle on the opening kickoff. An overeager Pierre Woods celebratory shove sent Alexander to the ground and he came up limping.

SO opening kickoff.....I will look on replay..IF they show it...Alexander limped off the field in the Buffalo game at the end...so this MAY be a re-injury of whatever ailed him in that game...He did play after that opening kickoff Sunday..I do remeber seeing him...or was that an illusion????
As far as Colvin goes, he was injured before the Cinci game and was just a non factor in that game...(a few snaps at start and end..) A bit better in the Cleveland game..and even a bit better in Dallas..but NOT 100%...
