Thursday Injury Report: Much, Much Better

PrintWe still have half the team on this here injury report.
However, we only had two players out today: Grimes and Nicholas. We already know Nicks isn't playing, though Grimes being held out again does worry me. Victor Cruz is much more likely to have a field day against us if Grimetime isn't up to snuff.
After Spoon's strange no-practice yesterday, he was back in full participation. That's good, we're going to need him. Roddy was also back to FP, as was Julio, Reggie Kelly, and Police.
The Old People all practiced in full.
HD is back in practice, as is Turner. It looks like, to me, yesterday was an extra day of rest for anyone who was even the slightest bit banged up, while easing back into it today, and probably ramping it up further tomorrow. Meier, C4, and Palms were all back to practice as well.
I wouldn't say we're "getting healthy at the right time", but we're at least not as bad off as we would seem. I really do hope Grimes can play this week. That's a huge blow to our D if we have to play without him.

Grimes should be good
everyone else that we need should be good. Nicholas out :( Kerry Meier out, which will be a huge blow to the offense I’m sure, but everyone else should be fine to go!

Nicks is short for Nicholas, our LB
There could be some confusion this week because of Giants WR Hakeem Nicks. I’ll be sure to make that distinction from this point forward.

I was worried about grimes missing practice too.
Thankfully, I read an article on nj.com. The article is about julio jones but goes on to quote Smith on Grimes, saying:
“Right now we’re trying to get him feeling as good as he can and anticipate him being out here at practice tomorrow,” and that it’s only a precaution. Thank goodness!
NFL Network said the same thing
It was also reported on NFL Network that Grimes was held out for precautionary reasons. I can’t help but feel worried at even the slightest possibility of Grimes missing the game, but it seems like he’ll be good to go.
This is my corn. You people are guests in my corn.
Ahmad Bradshaw
Noticed that he has missed some practices. Would be nice if he could miss the game.
"NLDS or bust" - Bobby Cox
he always misses Wed and Thurs
he only practices Friday. Just so he can get his timing down. He has screws in both feet and the bone around them cracked in like week 2.
I got banned from Jests Blog for saying Chad Henne has better stats than Mark Sanchez. And they think they're the big brothers in this town? LMAO try again little sisters!
Let's Go Giants!!!!
Webster
I saw Webster was added to the injury report today. He was limited with a hamstring injury so who knows what will happen there. He will probably start but we all have seen how hamstring injuries can come creeping back. It will definitely be interesting to keep a watch out for this during the game…
that worries me

Did anyone else see NFL Network segment w/ Roddy and Willis McGahee?
b/c if not, you need to! They are hilarious. Roddy talks about his ‘beef’ w/ Matt Ryan b/c they aren’t going to dinner enough. McGahee keeps goading him about it, and it’s hilarious. There’s a second shorter clip that follows where Roddy says he would trade in Baby Jesus (Tim Tebow) for Peyton Manning.

GM needs to be fired!!!
After being destroyed by Greenbay last year we trade our entire draft for Julio (knee jerk reaction)….We draft to beat the Packers instead of drafting to win our own division… Result: we lose our division to the Saints, we didn’t draft depth at for the secondary, injuries to key players (Grimes) are hurting us and we play wild card weekend instead of a first round bye… If we win we still lose we honestly can’t beat Greenbay or the Saints ….. Coaching staff remains but the GM has to go!!!!

Also depth at secondary is the least of our worries
we’re carrying at least 5 corners at any one time.
Next time you troll, at least check a depth chart first.

oh good
we’ve got some guys at BBV who will give you Jerry Reese (our GM) for him, and throw in Tom Clawfin to boot.
nygmen123: Again, without Vick or Maclin, or Cromartie. Injuries don't seem to bother them. They just bring in guys to make plays
nygmen123: Stopped the Pats on the first series. Planted Brady twice. Guess what gang? This team isn't quitting. Or making excuses.
Simms-McC: Yeah -- I wish the Giants were more like the Eagles
nygmen123: In intensity and fight? Right now, so do I.
EAGLES LOSE, 38-20.

we didnt draft to beat green bay
We draft to have a more explosive offense and its coming into its own.

Lol.... Breed had a field day so will Eli
5 corners only one with real talent no wonder Falcon nation has been down so long…. Out in the first round, again, wait til next year……Having camp
Bodies at corner isn’t the same as having qualitydepth
We didn't draft to get pass the first round
When we go out in the first…. Yeah that is gonna be a real explosion, I see your point.. Great offensive grab…. Hopefully we don’t trade all of next years draft on a punter to make Special teams more explosive..
Lol....Ban.... Thanks for the compliment, I think haha
They can’t ban me they want me posting on this wall they need me on this wall!
rest of the stuff was dumb
but this comment was actually pretty funny.

It's a passing league!!
Secondary play is at a premium…conversely the Giants are over rated they beat Dallas before that if you were a New York fan you thought the sky was falling, much like we did before we destroyed the SORRY BUCCANEERS….neither team travels well… Priorities for next years draft….. Offensive line, secondary help, a young tight endowing speed to groom behind the hall of famer and a back up running back for Turner not sure why Snelling is still on the roster…
snelling is there cause he's amazing
and we drafted this guy jacquizz rodgers, not sure if you’ve heard of him in Mississippi yet, but we’re stacked at rb too. if its such a passing league why do you have a problem with the acquisition of julio?
