Demens, Okafor & Clemons.

Okafor's injury did not look good at all. That could be a huge blow to an already weak unit.

Ib Kenny Demens likely has torn left acl. Tough loss. Smart backup. Good special teamer

@Cardschatter 5m5 minutes ago
Demens said his knee injury likely ACL. Caught in turf. Non-contact.

Is Bucannon ok? I same him come off the field near the end of the game which looked like a shoulder injury.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Ugh not good news.

Never like to get our guys injured

Demens is a key ST player and Okafor is our one guy who can bring pressure

I thought he went back in later - looked like a shoulder sting

Yes he is okay, he entered the game on the next series.
The real concern has to be Okafor at this point. Hopefully it's something that just looked worse than it is.

We wont know more until Tuesday most likely. Could be a calf strain, and if thats the case it could even be a grade 1 strain where he might just miss next week. A grade 3 can take over 8 weeks. And grade two is 2-8 weeks.

First thing I thought when Okafor tried to walk was ACL.

 

[Timm Rosenbach]

Good thing that we have depth at Offensive Tackle with first rounder DJ Humphries.

It's Dwight Freeney time

I thought Achilles

@mikejurecki: Calf injury https://t.co/f6WD5gvxZs

 

[RINGLESS]

I thought Achilles

Either one would be a season ender.

Have to hope its a calf strain as those are very painful. Tha'ts what Im hoping for. Even if it's a grade 3 he could be back around week 14

 

[BullheadCardFan]

It's Dwight Freeney time

At the right price I would take a look

 

[Jetstream Green]

It's Dwight Freeney time

This, this and this

 

[RINGLESS]

Seems like the Freeney train is gaining momentum.

But is he even in football shape? Having Woodley and Freeney as our OLB's leading the geriatric LB's and a slow Minter. We could have the slowest LB's in the league.

Russ will feast

man, they gotta try and do SOMETHING to generate some kind of pass rush. that's pretty much the ONLY thing that is glaringly bad on this team and could be the difference between a playoff one and done and a Super Bowl run. I don't think he'd give us that single-handedly, but what can it hurt to kick the tires on him?

 

[MrYeahBut]

Anyone have a clue as to what Freeney is really doing? Is he just on the couch (like Testaverde.. ouch painful memory), has his agent been actively talking to any teams, what kind of shape is he in? etc

Jurecki already bringing up freeney

I don't know what he's been doing other than asking for $8 million. (That's the rumored asking price)

How much can SK sign him for?

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Something always has to doom this team...we are already screwed at the position as it were.

Yet we're still a pretty damn good team!!!

IMO Freeney is gonna take this D to a new level, plus at some point Alex will be back. Woodley has been the invisible man & never as good as Dwight.

This, hopefully it will force the Cardinals' hand to sign Freeney because he should have enough to generate a pass rush on passing downs if kept fresh

I've only been saying we needed to sign him for 3wks now!!! Maybe Keim is secretly a ASFN member & finally listening to me
