Nope. On the radio after the game Hokie reported the only injury was Jo Lonn Dunbar.

Yeah I didn't hear that. I heard Jo Lon Dunbar.

He didn't play much of the second half if at all. The grass and the small, quick WR's were not a good match for him today. Or Jenkins for that matter.

Guess we bring in Derrick Brooks now?

Should get Greer back for sure this week. That will help immensely.

SCOUTING REPORT: Mike McKenzie came out of the game late in the third quarter. Chris McAlister replaced him at left corner. Saints officials did not give a reason for his absence but some players said McKenzie's knee was bothering him. He was clearly struggling in the game. For all the optimism the Saints had after his spectacular debut there must be concerns after the way he performed on Sunday. He struggled to keep up with the Redskins' speedy receivers and tackled poorly in space. McKenzie has a bad habit of lowering his head and diving at ball carriers in open space and the Redskins took advantage of his poor form several times by throwing quick screens to receivers in the flat and forcing McKenzie to make a tackle. The veteran corner struggled mightily and will continue to see these plays from opponents until he proves he can handle them.

I noticed his dive tackling approach myself. He spent more time swallowing mud, than tackling receivers. Now I definately believe home field advantage is essential. Inside, no weather, AT ALL.
