Keep It Together

Everyone seems to be reacting to Manny's injury the same way Kit Ramsey did to everything.



I agree that Lawson's injury is horrible, especially for a guy that was just coming into his own. But I'm not sure the situation's as gloomy as everyone is making it out to be. Clearly there will be a drop-off but I can think of at least a dozen other starters that would have been much more devastating to lose for the season. You can probably name the dozen guys I'm thinking of yourself so I'm not going to - also I'm superstitious as hell. But the reaction yesterday was "That sucks!", not "Oh God. We're completely f**ked!"

The fact is LB is probably our deepest position. Whoever comes in to replace Manny is going to be tested, but should also be up to the challenge. Either that or we DHL one of Patrick Willis' hairs to Korea to get him cloned.
