I suppose <a title=\"betting\" href=\"http:\/\/www.offshoreinsiders.com\/\">betting<\/a> sharps could argue that Rodgers was gutting out extra yardage on his 18-yard scramble because no one else in the Packer running game was stepping up. He said he had a headache but a clear head after the game, meaning he at least has a shot to play against the Patriots next week. Without him, this <a title=\"sports betting blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.joeduffy.net\/\">sports betting blog<\/a> will recommend you avoid the Packer line at all costs, as the Pats are demolishing everyone right now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chris Ivory, Saints: HAMSTRING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fantasy football players who found this waiver-wire gem are probably pretty irked about this one. Ivory was running with purpose again, tallying 47 yards on seven carries, but left with a hamstring injury. No word yet on the severity but, with Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush both back from injury, the Saints won\u2019t need to rush Ivory back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gerald McCoy and Quincy Black, Buccaneers: BICEPS, FOREARM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And we thought the Packer defense had it bad earlier this season. The Buccaneers have been absolutely devastated by season-ending injuries to their defense over the last few weeks. The latest casualties, out until 2011, are McCoy and Black. The Bucs ground out a win yesterday but will be hard-pressed to make the playoffs now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damien Woody, Jets: KNEE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t know how serious it is but we do know that Woody, a key part of New York\u2019s offensive line, aggravated a knee injury in Sunday\u2019s loss to Miami. His loss would be a painful blow to the Jets\u2019 rushing attack. Strong safety Eric Smith also may be out next week, as he may have suffered a concussion on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stewart Bradley, Eagles: ELBOW<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Linebacker Stewart Bradley is done for the regular season at least. He dislocated his elbow in the Sunday nighter.
