Seriously!! Out of the top 10 running backs last year, only CJ2K and rayray rice did not miss time. What is happening to our nfl rb’s so that they are becoming an extinct species? The 70′s, 80′s and 90′s were not like this. Guys always got hurt, but not at the rate these dudes do.

We all know players are bigger, stronger, and most of all, faster than ever, but dudes are going down without receiving vicious hits. It’s not only running backs,because of injuries the redskins started 3 non-starters across the O-line, then Trent wiliams got hurt! Insane!

The NFL is really turning into Survival of the Fittest. Between the behavior and drug suspensions, and injuries, the leauge will probably lose 25- 35 percent of it’s players.

Hey if a team sucks and plays lousy I can understand the sarcasm. I have no love for the ‘Bolts, but the guy broke a bone. Give him a break! (no pun).

Not a Charger fan but really, the guy broke a bone. Could have happened to anyone. Its the aches and pains that some guys dont play through that makes a player soft. Still, I was wary of his durability even though the fantasy shows had him going pretty high.

LMAO @ Dumbolt !!! It’s okay like your team slogan says “San Diego Chargers just wait till next year”. Yeah McFadden is definitly injury prone but at least he produces when he is healthy Ryan Matrhews does about the same when he is on the field or on the bench. So you shouldn’t see much drop off at that position.

It’s the same Charger fan posting under different names, over and over.

I’m stunned and surprised by a few things here.

First, it’s a broken collarbone. That doesn’t happen from a lack of conditioning or lack of effort. Maybe he wasn’t drinking enough milk, but other than that, it’s just a string of bad luck.

Second, who knew there were this many Chargers fans?

this dude is made out of glass..sucks because he is very talented but Dolphins definitely won that trade. Matthews for Odrick/Misi

At least this injury likely saves us the trouble of any talking heads on the various sports networks picking the Chargers to go deep in the playoffs.

It’s rather pathetic watching the faid fans dog this guy when they own the original marshmallow man at RB.

That said, it’s tough losing your starter so early, but the hype was unrealistic.

Everyone knows the class in this division, and in most of the league as a whole is Jamaal Charles. And it aint even close.

Just so people are informed Tolbert was never low balled by San Diego he actually took $1M to go play for Carolina.

I’ve been saying the O-line is going to be horrible, and now they don’t even have their #1 back.

Yeah, you can cancel the Chargers Superbowl Express guys. The Silver & Black is ready and waiting for September 10th.

OH no!!! And finally succumbing to the annual hype about the Bolts – I was finishing up the paperwork for a 2nd mortgage to go place on their winning the Super Bowl.

Geesh – talk about disappointing – and now it’s back to Hapless Bolts.

He probably broke it in the car wreck he was in and covered it up to make it look like it happened in a game.

Just another great draft pick from AJ Smith. As a Raider fan im LMFAO…

By: joetoronto

joetoronto — Fri, 10 Aug 2012 10:22:55 +0000

Thank God Mr Spanos is so cheap that AJ and Norval will be there for the remainder of their contracts.

A Raider fan couldn’t ask for more.

MJD is probably available at an alltime low value for 2 1st round and a 2nd round draft pick. Mjd is from LA area and it would workout in their favor as well.
