    This is bad news. I had a good feeling we could beat the undefeated titans, but without harris beating the pats and the titans is going to be a lot harder than it should be.

    I'd almost thought you'd left us.

    Anyway, this is pretty bad. We've seen that we can play awesome on defence without him, but i'm not sure if that'll last. Hopefully our other linebackers, mabey even Gholston, will pull out some massive games in the next two. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the pats offense has been that good, neither the titans passing game. Harris would have been awesome to have in fighting the Titans run, but we'll have to manage without him I guess.

    That's a huge blow. Whatever; we must make the adjustment.

    Man, this is a huge loss. Just seeing the word surgery scares me, and makes me think this is going to be more then 2-3 weeks.

    As long as one of the ILB improves coverage they'll be ok. Rhodes will call things for the defense. They just need to be as good as they were on sunday and they'll survive without him.

    Damn, that?s not good. I really like Bowens, he?s a great guy and can do a lot of things, unfortunately, ILB coverage isn?t one of them. The Bills TD was clearly on him, he bite on the Playfake then realized two yards before the QB, that it?s a pass instead of just playing his mistake 100% and go for the sac, he turned around and started searching for his man, who?s standing wide open in the Endzone.

    Spencer sucks. I think we definitly gotta activate Cummings, maybe he can surprise.

    Groin surgery does not sound like the most pleasant thing in the world to me. And how is he going to be back in two weeks from this???

    I agree that Bowens is serviceable but maybe we should give Cummings a shot.

    Well that just sucks. This is the worst stretch of the season for this to happen.

    Hard to believe it will only be 2-3 weeks after surgery. I don't think this will effect the Pats or Titan games all that much. It shouldn't. It might have some effect on covering Welker but that's about it.

    We should have drafted a LB with that high draft pick we had.

    I would be happy to have him back in three weeks.

    As long as we get him back this season.

    Jets fans should be counting their lucky stars.

    Groin surgery makes me want to cringe just thinking about it.

    I had a vasectomy, you're awake for that and you can watch them do it. You really don't have much of a choice. Mull that one over, big guy.

    It appears that nothing is known about his surgery. The speculation I found was that he had to have muscle re-attached to bone in his thigh. That doesn't sound like a great deal of fun to me.

    I've earned the nick "crash" by the ones closest to me for a reason.

    I was wondering - and worrying - about this very recently. Total bummer. Next to hamstrings, groin injuries can become a spectre than never stops haunting. Let's hope that isn't the case here. #94 *cough* Johnny Abglass *cough*.
