    That seems a bit harsh. But, I do wonder about a player who doesn't/won't play in a playoff game with an ankle injury.

    What's he saving himself for?

    Can you imagine anyone on that Ravens sideline trying to tell Ray Lewis that they couldn't go back in the game because they had an ankle injury?

    Tape it up and get back out there. :irked:

    It's the playoffs. :irked:

    Well, depending on how bad the injury is, it may just be worth it to have LenDale playing instead. Of course, I really doubt that (why didn't we play Ganther?).

    We did. Ganther ran into a lineman on his only carry.

    At least he didn't fumble. When I saw that, I immediatly flashed back to the Chris Brown fumble against the Chargers last year. The missed FG did the same thing.

    They was never any indication on tv when the injury occured. Just seemed kind of odd to me.

    Add me to the list of people who are very curious about exactly when the injury occurred and why he didn't at least attempt to re-enter the game.
