Arian Foster injures groin

Bradshaw looked great last season and toasted our asses in Houston.

 

No upper body injuries and i can't remember too many of these coming on contact....i think it's almost clear he's got issues with his mechanics.

At some point he's got to move on from having is brother as his primary trainer. I know it's gotta be tough to look past family, but his brother's team doesn't seem to have the experience necessary to correct his issues. Go find the best in the game and spend some time with them.

 

His 34 [rushing] yards? Andrew Luck & T.Y. Hilton torched the Texans' asses. They were held under 100 yards rushing.

Coming off a broken leg
1-game suspension
Virtually no interest...?

 

Ray rice

 

Guess I was thinking about that td catch. 3 catches for 25 yards.

He had a 6 game stretch of 6 receiving touchdowns.

Give me Steven Jackson and/or Chris Johnson.

 

At least PTcruiser has always had a good YPC and he's proficient in the pass game.

...and almost never fumbles the ball.

 

I'm good with Thomas.

He would play the Foster role of coming out of the back on passing downs. He's actually very good as a receiver. Not sure what his legs have left as a runner. He never got a fair shake with the Saints.

 

Like it a lot.

I like Pierre, he would have been my pick of the bunch.

 

You can do worse than Pierre Thomas when it comes to a stop-gap RB option when you are only talking about 8 games or so.

 

I second that.

 

Whelp, curious to see what PT has left in the tank for us.

 

can't be worse than ronnie brown, that's fo' sho'.

 

Looking at the bright side, did we actually think Foster would stay healthy? This happening now gives us time to get another RB in here early enough to learn a good bit of the system and gel with the team. If this happened 2 games in it would have been devastating.

 

Also it gives us a look of what it is going to be like after this season when Foster is a cap casualty.
