WM...3 broken ribs, not 1!

I'll say Willis is done for the rest of the season. 3 broken ribs are very painful to overcome. I don't think Willis can play with pain.

I agree, he's definitely done for this season. The article also goes to point out that he would need to wear a protective jacket if he were to come back this season. I just don't see him returning this year. I wouldn't go so far as to say that he's a pus-y or anything like that, he just seems to be very cautious when he goes down which is understandable given his injury a few years ago.

 

This is going to be a test of A-Train's durability and commitment.

 

I have a very good feeling about A-Train.

I'm still not sure why that kitty needed a cart off the field.

I hear there are high school players who are tougher...

He'll be back in a month.

I doubt he'll be cleared by doctors to play in a month. Broken ribs have to be fully healed to avoid risk of a serious injury. 4 weeks probably not enough for that. We'll see.

 

He could be back toward the end of the season and having missed a lot of playing time and having played behind a lousy offensive line for this year, he will enter next season again as a question mark for this team. We get to debate his value all over again in the offseason.

Having broken a rib, I doubt he will be back this season.  I remember that breathing itself was a painful activity, let alone the pounding an NFL running back takes.  I already scooped up the A-Train in fantasy ball.

Breathing is painful, but apparently sitting on the bench and smiling on the sidelines while wearing a Fat Albert sweater and Mr. T jewelry apparently doesn't hurt very much.

 

That's good to know.

Heavily medicated I'm sure.

You would have to be to wear that sweater. I figured with willis coming from the U he would have atleast some kinda fashion sense.

 

And of course Willis won't be back this season, he is a kitty. If he was travis Henry he would have been back on the field the next series and ran for 500+ yards. A-train wouldn't have even gotten off the field, he would have been ready the next down. Don't get me started on a RB from an opponents team, or what Marooney or Dillon would have done

 

So whats going to be the over/under on how many carries A-train gets until everyone here turns on him and try to run him out of town too?

Does picking up A-train in fantasy make me a total homer?  Just wonderin.  At least he won't be splitting carries, right?

Not at all....he's now a starting running back going against the worst run D in the league this week

Which is exactly why the Bills offensive gameplan this week will be to let Losman go crazy and pass all day.

The second Willis McGahee is gone and A-train is the starter is the second the "A-train sucks" crowd will come out.

Who's gonna take his roster spot?  Any RB's on the PS?

Bill's site says a Fred Jackson, 2nd year player from Coe College.. is on the PS.

 

I don't know who, if anybody, they have on the PUP list, but it was last week or this week when a team can have a member practice. I think it's 3 weeks - maybe 4, that a decision about a roster spot has to be made for a PUP.
