Courtesy of the Chicago Bears team site, here is the official injury report for tomorrow's game between the Bears and Bills in Toronto:

BUFFALO BILLS VS CHICAGO BEARS
Chicago Bears			Wednesday (11/3/2010)	Thursday (11/4/2010)	Friday (11/5/2010)
Player	Pos.	Injury	Status	Status	Status
Zackary Bowman	CB	Foot	Did not participate	Did not participate	Out (DNP)
Lance Briggs	LB	Ankle	Limited participation	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Edwin Williams	G/C	Back	Limited participation	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Roberto Garza	G/C	Knee	Full participation	Full Participation	Full Participation
Desmond Clark	TE	Neck			Questionable (DNP)

Apparently, Dez Clark suffered a neck stinger in practice on Thursday, but is expected to be able to play tomorrow. That is, if the coaching staff decides to play Clark, who has been inactive three of the last four games. Zack Bowman was expected to be ready to go this week, considering he had the entire Bye week to rest, but apparently his progress has been delayed.

Buffalo Bills			Wednesday (11/3/2010)	Thursday (11/4/2010)	Friday (11/5/2010)
Player	Pos.	Injury	Status	Status	Status
Cornell Green	T	Knee	Did not participate	Did not participate	Out (DNP)
Eric Wood	G	Knee	Did not participate	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Cordaro Howard	G	Shoulder	Did not participate	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Andra Davis	LB	Shoulder	Did not participate	Did not participate	Out (DNP)
Demetrius Bell	T	Knee	Did not participate	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Donald Jones	WR	Knee	Limited participation	Full participation	Probable (FP)
Terrence McGee	CB	Back	Full participation	Full participation	Probable (FP)

The biggest news for the Bills is the torn labrum of LB Andra Davis... they are already not in very good shape defensively, and having a starting LB out will only make things more challenging. Davis was injured in week 1, but had been playing through the pain until this week.

With the Bears potentially running the ball more tomorrow, do you think we'll see Dez Clark finally get on the field?

Desmond Clark Is Questionable With A Neck Injury

And he hasn’t played for at least two games. Did he get whiplash after crashing his car into Lovie Dovie’s swimming pool or something?

That’s after he took a dump in Lovie’s hottub. At least, that’s what I’d like to think. It would explain his absence.

only logical way to explain it..

Otherwise I have no clue why he isn’t played more..Olsen can’t catch and Manublahblah can’t pick up a block apparently..yet Clark has done both very effectively for years.

Either way, my gut says Dez isn't playing...

And that’s gonna piss me off, cuz he’s the best TE on this team.

That's what makes me so angry at Lovie...

the Bears have playmakers and he always seems to keep those guys on the bench to prove some point. When he’s looking for work next season, perhaps he’ll wonder why.

the trouble is we don't know how these guys ended up in the dog house

Lovie has the #5 defense some team will pick him up as DC he won’t be out of work long.

Yes...

but JA already has a job, and he too will likely be looking for a job as well.

Also...

Hopefully that team is in our division so we can beat them more often!

But they crapped in his Hot Tub

If you don't ask, you don't get. So get on with it already.

Dez and DA are in the coaches dog house.

Dez probably doesn’t care figuring this is his last year anyway. DA better do something to get back in the good graces of the coaches, how many more chances is he going to get if he gets cut by the Bears?

by 62bearsthe best on Nov 6, 2010 6:27 PM CDT reply actions

Plenty. He's got TALENT

And people saw that at the end of last year. Some team with a halfway decent QB (Jets?) is going to sign him for the vet’s minimum, and he’s gonna tear the league to pieces.

“The accumulated filth of all their rage and incompetence will foam up about their waists and all the fans and media will look up and shout “Save us!”… and I’ll whisper “no.”" — misquoted Roarschach, essentially what the Bears will do at the end of this year.
