If we lose Baker, thats a BIG loss. More then many may realize. We have a lot of secondary players, not sure how much quality. Hopefully someone will step up in a big way.

May have lost... I read the article and am more confused about there status than before. Unless there is some additional info about the injury not in the article that is a big leap.

I think we already had a couple of injuries in the secondary...

Dang....

Boo.

Well at least we aren't moving Ganus to safety yet...

Or a running back.

Bobby Baker Jr. has been playing lights out. That is a HUGE loss. Kalen Jackosn was looking good too, before the injury at $tate :(

Slaughter has been playing major minutes since game one. Farmer at Safety sounds good to me. This is why the coaches have been playing so many players. We'll just have to establish a new rotation. A week off gives us time to find the next man up.

The week off does come at a great time!

Damn, that's a terribly written article. Imjustafatkid could have wrote a better article than that crap.

Big loss. Both of them, especially Baker, were playing well.

Luckily, Jay Davis has been playing well too......maybe Desman Carter will step up also.

Possibly more McCullum, Milligan, and Maclin is how I look at it. Jackson was playin lights out, Baker was doing okay. What happened to Weston not even one punt return?

Milligan is now Slaughter's backup at at SAM. McCollum is at LB too. Not sure about Weston.

So we're basically a three man base front on D, more like a 3-3-5 or 3-2-6 defense?

This is probably true, but what on earth led you to bring me into this thread?

You aren't really asking much though. Al.com isn't really the pinnacle of news organizations.

If either of them have to go under the knife, this is the week. 5 week average recovery and we get them back for half a season.
