    Supposedly he has bruised ribs. Which may put him out for a week or two, depending on how bruised they are.

    Not so fast, Nick Wright is reporting that Cassel has a cracked rib. This has not been confirmed by the team, but Nick has some insider info within KC (he was the first to report the Thomas Jones/Jon Baldwin fight).

    Never liked the idea to play the starters a bunch in the 4th preseason game, and kept asking myself why they were still in.

    Do you think they would have been less likely to get injured if they played into the 3rd quarter of the 3rd preseason game against the starters (like they usually do) instead of the 4th game against 2nd and 3rd stringers? Sometimes a player will get hurt in practice. Maybe they shouldn't practice either.

    FINALLY someone with some common sense on here! LOL

    Players can get hurt at ANY GIVEN time or game. It HAPPENS!

    Maybe Brady should've never played that 1st game against the Chiefs a couple years back and he would've never gotten hurt.............

    Or maybe starters should ONLY play if they are starting to lose and they need to come in to win the game........

    Common sense tells me that if you're playing an exhibition game that is typically reserved to evaluate who will/will not get cut, you probably shouldn't put your most valuable players out there knowing they can get hurt at anytime.

    Common sense tells me that players are more likely to get hurt playing against first string players who tend to be bigger, faster, stronger and better football players than the 2nd and 3rd string players. That's why they are starters. But in a regular preseason the starters typically play about two thirds of the 3rd game, anyway. With the shortened preseason, Haley felt that an extra week of conditioning and practice, plus the advantage of playing against weaker less skilled 2nd and 3rd string players, would reduce the chance of injury. That makes sense to me, but the key word is reduce - not eliminate. Unfortunately, it didn't work out that way.

    Any player can get hurt on any play. That's football/
