First thing my husband said when Spence went down. I doubt that that is the sentiment on this board, however.

No Way. I'd rather have McFadden or Johnson. Farrior has been done for the last three years.

Like I said watch the waiver wires this weekend, plenty of good players getting cut..

Terrible news for Spence. All the best to the kid for a quick recovery.

Looking for a replacement? I just saw on the waiver wire Orie Lemon just got waived. Might be better then the Mcfaddens and the Hicks we have.

I don't think he was done three years ago. Last year, yes, but not 3 years ago. He was sure as heck a lot more durable than some of these guys currently playing linebacker.

That ugly knee injury suffered by Steelers rookie linebacker Sean Spence has generated an understandably serious initial diagnosis.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Spence is believed to have a torn ACL, torn LCL, and dislocated kneecap.

Spence, a third-round pick from Miami, undoubtedly is headed to injured reserve.* Hopefully, it’s an injury from which he’ll be able to recover in time for the 2013 season.
