Saw that he never came back in the game after the leg injury early. Anyone heard anything?

They had ankle injuries. They were ruled out for the rest of the game after the injuries were disclosed. How bad they are, I don't know.

The Jones injury was pretty early on a punt return. Parker's was not long after that.

Fulmer just said it was an ankle injury and they would evaluate it tomorrow.That's what I figured we would hear.

The saving grace for Jones was that his spikes didn't get caught in the ground when his leg was hit. It looked bad, but it could have been a lot worse .

wish I could have finished when I blew out my knee. I knew from the moment it happened that something was seriously wrong.

and I just saw that Gerald has a sprain

Here's a question: if Jones can't play next week, do we see Berry on offense?

He does everything else why not. Call me crazy, but i believe part of our offensive struggles have come because we have focused to much on getting gerald the ball. He is a playmaker yes. But the g-gun has been poorly mismanaged. We have some guys that have played receiver behind gerald. They stepped up for us last night. Distribute the ball around so teams can't focus on taking one guy out of the picture. Teams have locked in on gerald and it has hurt us. Especially with young qb's that have limited field vision. They tend to pick favorites and gerald was their main favorite. You might actually see us open it up even more now.

Why must every dynamic player have a 'package'? I say just put Berry in the game at WR and let him run routes. If he gets open, throw it to him. If the defense is so scared ****less that they roll to him, somebody else is open. Why must he line up at QB, when everybody on the planet, including the corpse of Helen Keller, knows he's going to run the ball to wherever the motion guy stops moving?

Its the only way playing berry makes sense on offense. Line him up, throw screens to him, run him long get a double team and use him as a decoy. I could have some fun designing a few things we could do with him. Most of all attack the defense with him. Lining him up behind center, they may as well keep him on defense. Thats not the most effective way to use berry or jones for that matter.

I disagree. I think the g gun has been greatly mismanaged... :)
