ConnFalcon Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I never root for injuries. But him being out def helps our chances to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sporkdevil Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I would be surprised if he didn't play. Sounds more like they are just resting him.Oh, and if he out, then we get to play against Stewart. But it's not like we can't stack the box with DelHomme behind center.

Big Zee Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I think both of them will play... doesn't mean they'll be 100% though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joremarid Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 they already lost their DTs, thomas davis, and if they lose williams we should definitely win this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCFalcon Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 That's good. It's one less weapon that we have to deal with. Including Steve Smith and their other RB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_ATL Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 they already lost their DTs, thomas davis, and if they lose williams we should definitely win this game.We should be able to beat them even with all those guys and on the road.Those being out sure helps increase those chances though. Thomas Davis has been a pain in the Falcons side since they started having him spy Vick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattywankenobi Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 When it comes to starting RB's being out all I need to say is Samkon Gado. Don't count the chickens till they at least start chirpin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toronto_Dirty_Bird Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Doesn't really matter if he's out or not, we're still going to play a tough game and come out as winners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayOzOne Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Not a chance in Tampa that he won't play this Sunday. My question is which of our "injured" players decides that he's "hurt" and will hit the field for us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWIFT HITTER Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 D. Williams didn't practice today.Pat Yasinskas (1:04 PM)Thanks for the update. Well, as a general rule with Fox, if you're not practicing Friday, you don't play Sunday. We'll see if this one might be the exception.
