Injury Bug

i was just thinking a few weeks ago man this team is completely healthy 3/4 through the season what a pleasant surprise! The Hadden gets hurt and the pass D goes to ****. Then Shazier who is arguably our best defender goes out for the year causing a huge hole at MLB. Now AB. I mean I knew this was too good to last but WTF

 

Based on everything I'm reading, Brown should be back for the play-offs. Steelers should win out and secure the #2 and that first round bye which gives Brown and Hadden almost a month more of rest.

The Shazier injury is a brutal blow, but I don't think it's a death blow to this team. You saw some adjustments tonight again to missing him. They're better with Shazier, that's for sure, but I think this team will continue to figure out how to play without him.

 

Sean Spence shouldn’t be anywhere near a football field I mean our lack of depth at ILB is frightening. AB May be back in 3 weeks didn’t they say that about Haden? Even if AB comes back he most likely won’t be himself and now that we will be the 2 seed it most likely means a rematch with the Jags. They way they look on D right now and the running game they have that’s a terrible matchup for us. And even if we pull out that dog fight we have a trip to Foxboro. This game probably ended any legit chance at a super bowl.

 

Yeah a power run game might be out worst nightmare.

 

Baltimore pretty much destroyed us with it two weeks ago. Jags D is maybe the best in the NFL. I know getting ahead of myself because there are still games to play but now we won’t be able to rest starters which could and probably will lead to more injuries. And the path most likely is at home vs Jax and at NE. Two teams that we don’t match up with very well. This loss was absolutely killer.

 

Win two against bad teams, rest, and get everyone except Shaz ready for the playoffs. We all love 50 but he hasn't exactly been all that healthy at any point over 4 years.

 

Haden should be healthy by the playoffs AB who knows. Torn calf muscle for a WR me thinks is a big deal.

 

Well there will be no player to work harder than AB to come back.

Got one month to a divisional round.
Luckily this wasn’t week 17
