Those next men are pretty far down the roster. The defensive depth on this team is not good. Ozzie got a little too cute thinking some of the cheaper players like Kemo and McClain would be able to be effective. Bet he's regretting it.

Ravens RapidReports ‏@CBSRavens Marshal Yanda on crutches with right ankle taped.

and the league wants to go 18 games. fans don't want to see hird stringers and practice squad players.

Yanda is putting weight on his ankle which is good according to Aaron Wilson.

He is tough and I dont see him missing more than 2 games if he is already putting weight on the ankle and the x rays were negative.

I would Put McKinnie at LT/Harewood at LG/Birk/KO/Oher. That would be a solid line

Is a Hip pointer serious for Rice?

Aaron Wilson ‏@RavensInsider Although the X-rays were negative on Jameel McClain's neck injury, he was in serious pain and dealing with swelling.

Aaron Wilson ‏@RavensInsider Marshal Yanda was fitted for a walking boot afterward. He was in no mood for interviews and didn't comment on his status.

If Yanda is out for any period of time ......oh boy

Do you think Harbaugh is starting to understand how the captain of Titanic felt?

**arnie_uk** · 12-09-2012, 04:38 PM

One good thing could come of this. McKinnie lt oher and ko RG and rt, either way. Then when yandas back move whoever plays RG to lg and keep McKinnie at lt

**Benny8444** · 12-09-2012, 04:45 PM

Per WNST Twitter

Marshal Yanda left the locker room on crutches but was putting weight on the right ankle. Better scene than before, but still concerning.

Jameel McClain ‏@JameelMcClain Thanks for the prayers everybody I will be good #fightingthegoodfight

It's already been said, but when he went down the first sentence that popped into my mind was: "He shouldn't have even been on the field for OT"

Hey, no problem! We have Ramon Harewood.

Any word on Rice and Leach? When it rains ...

Not heard anything which is good i guess as anything possibly serious to rice or causing him to miss games would be leaked so I am guessing its just a bruise to his hip which is what a hip pointer is. Leach probably has an ankle bruise as he did not even have an x ray.

He actually played well and the only reason he was taken out was because he got hurt. He is a good run blocker but needs to work on communication. I would move KO inside and put oher at RT and Big Mac back at LT. He has to be in shape or the team would have cut him to free up cap space. He has looked good in the jumbo package and is bigger and has better footwork that oher.

Fullback Vonta Leach sustained a sprained ankle, but was walking around without issues following the game.

And Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice has a slight hip pointer, according to Harbaugh.

Rice rushed for 121 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries and didn't appear to be in major discomfort afterward in the locker room.
