Cleveland Browns starter Brian Hoyer is out for the season with a torn ACL. Buffalo Bills rookie EJ Manuel was knocked out with a knee injury. Injuries are inevitable in the NFL, but Bills center Eric Wood upset with how the Browns responded to Manuel's injury. "The hit was fine, what ticked me off was the way they acted afterwards," said Bills center Eric Wood to the team's official website. "I hope our defense never acts like that when they injure an opposing quarterback. You've got to show some class in that situation. There's a few guys over there that obviously didn't." "You've got (Browns safety T.J. Ward yelling at Kiko (Alonso), a former college teammate, 'I told you to warn him that we were going to get him.' That's classless," Wood said. "Every team has probably got them. I'm not going to say that nobody on our team has ever done that, but it ticks you off when someone on the other team does it for sure." Watch the replay, you can make a case that Browns safety Tashaun Gipson should have been flagged for taunting. The Browns players celebrated after the hit, which was odd considering Manuel had just picked up a first down. The "Around The League Podcast" is now available on iTunes!

YoloinOhio Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Considering we were hearing speculation it was a season ending injury, I am relieved.
Gene Frenkle Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 welllllllllll, CRAP! Could have been a LOT worse.

zow2 Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Thats typically how ligament problems work. I tore my mcl once. Hurt like a mofo for about 5 minutes. After that I felt fine. Next morning was a different story though. I get it, however, I am in a state of denial. I can't accept that EJ will be out for the year. Even if we aren't destined for the playoffs i was hoping 2013 was his "get comfortable" season and in 2014 he'd have enough in-game experience that he'd be twice as good as he is now.
JPS Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I'm sacrificing a goat later in the north burbs of Chicago. It might work. Christ!

bobobonators Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 when the F is the BYE!!!...thank the lord.
5 Wide Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Marrone also said its conceivable that whoever they sign could start against the Bengals. Hope Russ has the Taurus warmed up.
K D Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I thought it was just a sprain. So I'm bummed. I fully expected him to play next Sunday with a brace. Now what do we do? If Tuel starts I'm not even going to watch the game
YoloinOhio Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I just breathed a huge sigh of relief. He said he is bringing in a QB which means they aren't satisfied with Tuel or Lewis. Plus, our running game is very good, we MAY be OK. Don't forget Tuel will have a full week of practice with the 1's, a little different than the situation he was in last night.
Kirby Jackson Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Doesn't sound too bad, could've been much worse. I wonder who they bring in VY maybe?
Braedenstearns Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 EJ Manuel sprained LCL could miss a few weeks. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000255463/article/marrone-ej-manuel-has-lcl-sprain-out-a-few-weeks?akmobile=kindle-fire&akcarrier=other
nucci Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Don't we have a QB on practice squad? Guy from Detroit.
