Re: Marvin Harrison Update (Friday)

Don't think anyone answered you but yes you are wrong. There is no actual NFL rule on this, just some coaches have it as a rule. McNair a few years back with the Titans when he was really banged up had a string where he wouldn't practice at all but tough it out for games.

That was my thinking but I didn't know for certain. Thanks.

Good. I don't want any excuses when we beat them.

I'm sure there will be some ready if you do, as will there be some if we somehow pull out a win, and the excuses will resonate for years and years to come.

Two guys stuck together in a nursing home:

"McGinest Faked that Injury"
"You wouldn't have scored a point if Rodney Wasn't hurt"
"Well if you guys wouldn't have mugged Pollard we would have had a comeback"
"And if you wouldn't have turned up the heat in the Dome we wouldn't have worn out, and we were injured, and we had the flu too!"
"Shut up Tom, and pass the bedpan"
"Get your finger out of your nose"

Yea, that is correct. The Giants have been doing this with Plexiglass, as well

If he does, he does. If not, than not. It doesn't matter really, either way Pats win going away.

Marvin Harrison will play however Asante Samuel will shut him down.

They are playing the same game with Harrison that we are with Watson.

Both will play.

Except Watson is practicing and moving well from all reports...

Guess you missed today's report.

I'd actually be surprised if either Harrison or Watson played this week. Not worth the risk of losing them for the season to win this one game.
