Everybody should remember that it's not just QB's who get hurt. The Rams lost Safety Kim Herring Saturday (after that pansy Sehorn is already hurt) and the Bills lost an offensive lineman. The Niners lost a tight end. The Packers lost at least one offensive lineman.Just go down the list of teams and you will find that they all have at least a couple of guys who get hurt in the preseason. Football is a rough game, people get hurt. I think most people have a problem with players getting hurt in games that mean nothing, and then these players are hurt for when the games DO matter. Also, I think that many of the veteran players can get themselves ready for the season just fine. Not everyone in the league is in favor of a long preseason. Obviously, players need contact, but is it really necessary to have 4 preseason games where players can get hurt in freak accidents or get taken out on dirty plays? If you get hurt in a game that helps your team get to the playoffs, that is one thing, but in a game that counts for nothing? What a waste.
