Lights Out

Well that didn't take long. So long to Shawne Merriman for the season. He gave it his best shot but apparently it just didn't feel right. Jyles Tucker will have his chance to shine and earn all that bonus money, and he better do it fast because otherwise Jay Cutler is gonna send us to 0-2. The question I have is what the Chargers are going to do with that precious roster spot. From the practice squad you have Antwan Applewhite who is an OLB. Also on the practice squad is DE Keith Grennan who apparently was promised by the Chargers that he would be the first call up from PS if needed. There are also rumors about former Patriot Roosevelt Colvin being signed.

It seems like half the teams in the league have lost someone to a major knee injury and its only Week 2. Already we've lost Merriman, Osi, Brady, and a bunch of other guys, not to mention Vince Young's MCL sprain and recent freakout. Here's hoping this epidemic is over before any other players go down.
