Extras/Injury/Rosters Updates for Week 12
The column won't run until it's normal Friday slot, but I wanted to post the Extras a little early because of the Thanksgiving Day games.
Of the two games, there is one dreadful one (Atlanta at Detroit at 12:30 p.m.) and one fantastic one (Denver at Dallas at 4:15 p.m.). My advice is to push the family to eat early and then sit back and enjoy two of the league's top teams square off. Maybe it'll even keep you awake after all that turkey (maybe not).
Obviously, since their are games Thursday, be sure to have your lineup set before the Detroit game. If your league doesn't allow transactions after the start of the week, you'll need to do them Wednesday night/early Thursday to get them in in time.
The NFL Injury Report is posted every week at www.nfl.com/injuries. Check it out for updates. There will be no breakdown this week (holiday and all) but you'll be able to get the info needed with one extra click.
For some reason, I'm very much looking forward to the Cleveland Browns at Minnesota Vikings game Sunday at 1 p.m. The Vikings are back to .500 (5-5) and a win Sunday would have them right on the playoff bubble, which is incredible with everything the team has gone through. Also, Braylon Edwards (CLE-WR) is really starting to come into his own and maybe he'll be able to take another step forward this week.
Injury/Roster Updates
Word out of Ravens camps is that Chester Taylor (Baltimore-RB) will keep taking mor and more carries from Jamal Lewis (BAL-RB). I'll have more on this in Friday's column.
Despite suffering a concussion in last week's loss Denver, Brooks Bollinger (NYJ-QB) is expected to start for the Jets against New Orleans on Sunday night.
Rescent reports are suggesting that Tony Fisher (GB-RB) may start ahead of Sam Gado (GB-RB) at Philadelphia this week. Apparently, Gado is in coach Mike Sherman's doghouse after a costly fumble in Week 11. Keep an eye on it.
Happy Thanksgiving and good luck this week. The playoffs are right around the corner and it should be fun to see which players will carry their teams.
See you Monday with the Reactions.
