Jets vs. Raiders Injury Report: Both Teams Will be Close to Full Strength

by Rich Langford on Sep 23, 2011 3:22 PM PDT

There aren't any surprises on the injury for the Jets and Raiders. The Raiders have ruled out Jacoby Ford, Luis Murphy and Mike Mitchell. The Jets said C Nick Mangold, WR Logan Payne and G Robert Turner are out.

The closest thing to a surprise is that DE Muhammad Wilkerson is questionable. Earlier in the week Wilkerson was part of a large group of players that were limited in practice that Rex Ryan said he expected would play. This means he will likely play, but his shoulder is obviously bugging him enough that it could effect his performance.

Demarcus Van Dyke is the only player on the Raiders listed as questionable. This likely means he won't see the field on Sunday. DVD has had his struggles when 100 percent healthy. I don't see the Raiders throwing him out there if he is not. Joe Porter will likely slide above DVD on the depth chart for Sunday's game.

Murphy may want to get his butt on the field

as I see he falling down the depth chart with the emergence of Moore & Hagen. I think Ford will be safe, because he’s a playmaker who needs to get the ball. Murphy though will need to reestablish his spot in the lineup, especially if DHB can somehow put together another decent game or 2.

Was thinking the same thing

I like Murph, but he had injury problems last year, and is getting off to a rough start this year. Meanwhile, we got a new rookie who plays like a pro.

The only injury i remember for Murphy was the bruised lung

after a collision with Reece.If that was his only injury, i would say that he has an injury problem.

*Wouldnt say he has an injury problem

by RyanTheRaider on Sep 23, 2011 4:41 PM PDT up reply actions

id say he has a problem of

“not being better than the players he’s competing with for playing time”

murph is a gritty, tough guy, he is overvalued for his success as the best of an awful group in the past. better players have been and will be passing him by. I like the guy but if he is one of your top 2 wrs, your team ain’t very good

It just feels like

it’s been forever since I’ve seen the guy make in impact in a game, and that injuries are a big reason for that.

Fortunately for Murphy

we have those two guys. Otherwise, he probably would have to return too soon.

So glad Boss if ready to go and I hope DVD is too ... Porter would be disastrous a' la walterMcFadden

We need a lot of Bush and DMC this Sunday. Also, field goals won’t be an option.

I just thought of joe porter singled up in the slot on mason

and threw up in my mouth, a lot

by lchristmas on Sep 23, 2011 6:53 PM PDT via mobile up reply actions

I hope is not Porter.

Do not know why we kept him, jave not seen him do anything excitng. If it was for ST play, I have seen him out there either.

Anyone can be a fan of a winning team, supporting your team when its down is what makes you a true honest fan.

Why dont we sign a Vet like Sharper already?

Preach it brother

I been saying that all week … we need another veteran corner desperately.

Still don’t understand why we don’t grab Sheppard back. Even at his (apparently) diminished capacity he’d still be the 3rd or even 2nd best if Stan or CJ was ever hurt or even not at full strength due to injury. And he’d have to be dirt cheap. And Miller’s roster spot is wasted anyway …

We’ve known since the moment Nnamdi left that we’re very thin at the position, and the answer was … Joe Porter? Please …

I hope we try someone else beside Miller at PR this week, and I’d have to think that if someone else steps up at that job this week, we’d finally say buh-bye to little Nicky and grab us another vet corner.

Doesnt Matter

This is all irrelevent until Al Davis makes amends with the NFL. They will continue to scrutinize every play for a penalty, especially when it counts. Ive never seen so many flags this year taken back because of a mistake. Thats proof theyre trigger happy for a REASON. For 26 raider years i was never a conspiracy guy, but im tired of kidding myself. Cbs cut last weeks raider game in LA on Buffalo’s last drive with 24 seconds left in the game. NFL announced that this had to happen because SD OWNS THE LA MARKET. Thats a direct spit in AL’s face. What would you expect the NFL would do to an owner who has slapped a handful of lawsuits on them and won?
Ill guarantee you a game changing penalty on third down late in the fourth that will allow the Jets a game winning score. Same ole tuck story.
Dare I say it.

CBS has always been clueless about sports - no sense of drama, discriminating judgment or understanding of significance

just crass bureaucratic commercialism.

To me, these sequence of events leading to Boss injured looked like the same hit laid on Berry.

They both flew up and fell. Berry is weak/injury prone and we should go for his thighs. Tip.

gotta agree with ya there sob...

Havin Boss in finally gives us more options for short passing yards….and yeah, DVD is a much safer bet to at least keep Plax in check than porter. Our secondary is the only area that makes me cringe…Bills toasted us with dink and dunk bullshit last week, and thats about all Sanchez is good for.
