Per the Indianapolis Star, Saturday will miss even more time if he decides to have surgery to repair the torn MCL. His agent, Ralph Cindrich, told the Star that Saturday will miss six or seven weeks without surgery, and 11 with the procedure. Rookie Steve Justice likely will replace Saturday, who’s entering the final year of his contract Report

August 28, 200817 yr comment_45190 Tommy and Dusty are licking their chops. Dusty is going to be healthy?!!! In all seriousness, this is big news. Sanders and Freeney, to avoid to PUP list, will probably play but they'll more then likely be 80-90 percent. Perhaps, we could pull an upset at LOS on September 7. Report
August 28, 200817 yr comment_45213 Wasn't it last year or two years ago we faced these guys with two rookie OG and we still couldn't get any pressure up the middle. I'm not going to be optimistic this time around. Part of that is the fact Manning is so good at reading pressure and getting rid of the ball very quickly. Report
August 28, 200817 yr comment_45214 Not that I wa-ish bad things to happen to players but this is some what good news, added to that that Sanders, Freeney and Manning ares back but not 100% either makes it look llike we can win this first game against the Colts Report
August 28, 200817 yr Author comment_45227 True enough... But it's better than a 100% healthy line and Manning. We need every possible advantage we can get.
