    Chester Taylor Carted Off Field

    Vikings RB Chester Taylor left Blakeslee Stadium on a cart this morning with a right shoulder or right arm injury. He was hit after catching a pass and, after a short period of time, appeared to be in a lot of pain.

    If this injury is serious, the stock of rookie RB Adrian Peterson will go through the roof. Peterson is already highly regarded in fantasy football, but the starting job would move him up into the top 15 running backs. Taylor rushed for 1,216 yards last season with six TDs and will still have some fantasy value if this injury is not serious. Stay tuned for more details on the injury.

    The smiley face was a bit much for the thread title. Though it did make me chuckle a bit.

    I personally prefer the Eagles to be healthy as well as their opponents. It makes victories mean more and you don't have to listen to excuses from opposing fans.

    NEVER a good sign when you're carted off the field. Atleast nine times out of ten it isn't.
