Andrews to miss time with a broken thumb

Best case scenario, he's out 2-3 weeks.
 
Ugh, that stinks. He's been a game-changer up front and you could see the difference. Poor guy just can't catch a break
 
Poop. We'll be okay but he's been great.

It's going to be interesting to see who is the one snapping to Cam this week..

Reactions: Ian
Hopefully Froholdt is ready to go, assuming it's him he's a better athlete than Karras was.

Maybe Thuney will make the line calls?
 
Our running game will likely suffer. Ian is right. Andrews is a game changer. He’s almost as good as the Raiders starting center, Rodney Hudson, who is the second highest paid at the position, earning over $11 million a year.
Our DTs will have their hands full. The game will be won in the trenches. Advantage Raiders?
 
If you have never lost the use of your right hand, let me tell you, their are a number of things you only do with your right hand. I severly burnt my right arm when I was 19, I couldn't use it for anything. Luckily I had a willing GF at the time to fill the most pressing need, however, I challenge any of you to try and wipe with your left, its just something you have never done in your life. There are numerous other challenges, but I'll leave it at that.

The most logical thing might be to move him to guard until his finger heals, Mason was touted as switching to center coming out in the draft. If this is going to be a long term injury, that might be the best fix.
 
For a team that relies on the run game as much as this one, we're going to need the backup to play well. Otherwise, I don't see the offense getting a whole lot done.
 
Is it possible Mason or Thuney snap and Andrews plays guard? I thought Mason played center at one point at Georgia Tech?
 
I guess it is a good thing we brought Ferentz back to the practice squad... I guess it's better than nothing... maybe.
