Title: IMPORTANT Major Injury News(last min)
Post by DirkDiggler on Oct 26^th, 2003, 10:53am

I figured people are going to need to know the status of the DREADED "game time decision".

I have more questions than answers.

I have read that Couch is going to start over Holcomb because of Holcomb's injury. He is not a good start because 3 of the 5 O-line starters are out of the game.

For some reason (shoulder) WIllie Green is a game time decision. Anyone know his status yet?? He did practice this week with minimal contact. James Jackson would get the start if he is unable to go.

Is Peterson OR Thomas gonna play in Chicago? If not, does Abdullah become the man?

And then there is Pittman. I have not heard ANYTHING about his injury and he too is questionable.

And finally, the worst of all game time decisions..... Moulds in a game TONIGHT, is game time. MOST reports I have read lean toward him playing in the critical AFC matchup.

I expect as the morning goes on we will find out more.....

If Peterson and Thomas are out, Abdullah may play 3rd down back with Forsey getting most of the carries.

I'd just plain avoid the Browns either way, if you can.

Green and Moulds situations have not changed so far. Who knows...

Sal Palentonio just ruled out Willie Green. James Jackson will get the start according to ESPN.

Well, Butch Davis announced he's starting Couch. But I still wouldn't play him, given the choice.

Dillon was in a car wreck enroute to the game this morning and according to the Bengals web site is out for today. I received an email from the site and it has been reported else where. karma?

Just heard Forsey gets the start in CHI.

Thanks for the Dillon heads-up, ugley!

OK-- this is what we have so far.

Forsey gets the start in Chicago over Abdullah. Peterson and Thomas OUT

Willie Green is OUT. James Jackson is IN.

COREY DILLON is out!! He was in a car wreck. No injuries, but the Bengals had to declare their actives by 11:30. He was not there, so he was listed inactive. RUDI JOHNSON gets the start.

Couch is starting over Holcombe. But risky play with horrible O-line.

Moulds is still game time decision. But most info sources have him playing.

Just one add-on.

If Moulds plays, how MUCH will he play.

THis is the 60 million dollar question. That is why it sucks it is a Sunday night game. No one has a clue.

Lamar Gordan is officiially out.

Danny Kannell is the starter. He is OK to play.

Well...it is now official. Another game time decision is inactive.

Donte Stallworth will NOT play today. Pathon will start in his place.

Pittman continues to produce, having another 100+ yard rushing game.

His fantasy value depends a lot on the scoring system. I own him in all four of my leagues. But my scoring system is one point for every 20 yds. rushing and six points for a TD. HE'S KILLING ME, BUT HE'S TOO GOOD TO GIVE UP!
