Pft:

haynesworth has “bad sprain”

posted by michael david smith on december 14, 2008, 5:02 p.m.

A source with knowledge of the situation tells pft that albert haynesworth suffered a “bad sprain” in the final moments of today’s loss to the houston texans.

The exact extent of the injury will not be known until team doctors have the results of an mri exam, which is scheduled to be conducted on monday. The injury took place when haynesworth ended up on the ground with his left leg pinned under a pile of players.

Losing haynesworth for any time at all would be a significant blow to the titans. Haynesworth has been a dominating presence in the middle of the titans’ defensive line this season, and he has a career-high 8.5 sacks.

The titans host the steelers next week in a game that could determine home-field advantage throughout the afc playoffs.

Certainly better to be coming together and peeking like say....the Panthers than to start out 10-0, then slip. That being said, defense and a strong running game should be there after a 2 week bye. Whoever comes to Tennessee will be beat up and on a weeks rest. Big equalizer.

If it's the Jets, MIA, DEN, or BAL ... I could see that happening

If NE, IND, or (god forbid) SD come to Nashville divisional week ... nice knowin you Titans

    • Would you just fuging quit trying to make us like him? That is his job, not yours.  Thank you. 
    • Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.
    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
