HOUSE Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) Shawne Merriman........ wait a minute, let me check again. INJURY REPORT: Receiver David Nelson, out the past week with a strained knee, was back in full action. ... Starting right tackle Erik Pears (hernia-groin) was back working in 11-on-11 drills and took part in 15 to 20 snaps. ... Center Eric Wood upped his workload, taking 15 to 20 snaps in team work. Gailey said Wood is expected to sit out the second preseason game (Friday in Minnesota) but is targeted to play in the third game (Aug. 25 vs. Pittsburgh). ... Defensive tackle Torell Troup (back) was limited. Linebacker Kelvin Sheppard was very limited. Sitting out were Josh Nesbitt, Justin Rogers and Mike Caussin. Nope, No Merriman. Wait a minute, we have an Update, I just knew it! Merriman a spectator Freakin Chris Brown! http://blogs.buffalo...set-button.html Edited August 13, 2012 by HOUSE
Matt in KC Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Excellent to see that with Merriman. Also really good news: Terrence McGee looked to be moving around better in practice Saturday. For the first time he got some team reps in the slot and ran with receivers as well as he has all camp. Whether he’ll be close enough to get some snaps in the Minnesota game this Friday remains to be seen. The reports of McGee's death appear to be exaggerated.

jimmy10 Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 We all know Merriman made it through last preseason and 5-6 games of the regular season before going out on IR. But did he look as "good" or "explosive" last year as people say he does this year? I'm just looking and hoping for any sign that he's actually healthy enough to be effective for a whole season, even in a limited role.

ko12010 Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Unfortunately, knee problems are for life. He didn't have a knee problem though, I don't think. Achilles/heel/foot. Those can last too I'm sure.

Then he got "nicked"...
3rdand12 Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 He was explosive in the practice game against washington. i replayed some of his rushes because i was not sure he didnt get off the ball Before the snap. I was impressed.
jimmy10 Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Thanks. Yeah, I'm just looking for something that indicates he's ACTUALLY feeling his best in 3 years, beyond the usual coach/player speak.
Optometric Insight Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 You use that flirt emoticon a lot. Anything you need to tell us, HOUSE?
FleaMoulds80 Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 You've just jinxed it HOUSE. I will bet that Merriman gets hurt next preseason game. Way to go
Optometric Insight Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 I will bet that Merriman gets hurt next preseason game. With a little editing, he didn't do anything compared to what you just did.
