This could have major implications on the Giants ability to hold on to the NFC East lead going forward. According to reports, Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw has a cracked bone in his foot and could undergo surgery to fix it.
Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw suffered a cracked bone in his foot during Sunday's game against the Dolphins and is out indefinitely, according to someone informed of Bradshaw's health status. The person, who requested anonymity because the Giants haven't provided full details on Bradshaw's injury, said the fifth-year veteran is mulling whether to have corrective surgery. Bradshaw has had similar issues with both feet and ankles in recent years and has undergone surgery to insert screws into his feet.
Outside of Eli Manning, you'd probably have to say Bradshaw is the Giants most valuable offensive player. Losing him would be a major blow.
[Update by JasonB, 11/03/11 2:12 PM EDT ] Adam Schefter is now citing a source who says that the injury is "not serious"
Person familar with Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw's injury texted this: "Not serious injury - should play Sunday. No surgery (needed)."
So does that mean the report was wrong altogether or that they don't see a cracked bone in the foot as a serious injury? I suppose we'll see.

They couldn’t run the ball before this injury…. and they still can’t. I don’t think this loos is as big as it would have been in years past. That said Eli has very little room for error now, but I think their passing game will be able to keep them plenty competitive.

Having Brandon Jacobs in there will hurt the running game and the passing game. He’s not a good runner any more, never could catch passes, and I believe he’s also a lousy blocker, IIRC.
You'd be surprised...
He is still a good runner, has better hands than Bradshaw and is by far the most consistent blocker in the Giants running back crew.
Jacobs with more than a few touches per game MIGHT be the very thing that wakes up the Giants run game.
AB is the Giants best pass blocking OLmen and though the run game has sucked ass
he avg 4.0 per.

When I saw it on rotoworld..
I went over to BBV to check it out. They didn’t have anything on it. I was not suprised that BGN beat them to it. This is like the 5th Giant’s breaking news story I’ve seen here.

I am an Eagles fan true and true. I am not sure if you are implying I am a Giants fan. I do like the implication if that is a case.

not surprised
i come here for my Giant news . I sometimes think BGN is more tapped into the Giants then the Eagles.

WTF is going on in the Meadowlands? Not taking their vitamins or something? That sucks because I like Bradshaw, and now I have to watch that pud Brandon Jacobs dancing around in the backfield before falling over.
Oh boy, is this great!

What makes our 1-4 start all the more ridiculous
is that we’ve been quite fortunate this year injury-wise, especially compared to other teams, and to the Eagles from the last two years.
We’ve had none of those dreadful ACL tears and other season-enders like a lot of other teams have.
*at least to key players.
Yea we lost Dixon, but he’s not a key player considering who else we have on the D-line. And as for Rehabiamiri… we knew that bum would never contribute squat anyway.
I'd consider Dixon a key player
he is a big guy that could really help against the run and he can also get some penetration on passing plays as well. Matching him with Jenkins on 3rd and long would be a nightmare for opposing QBs. Also having him with Patterson on running plays would be huge as well.
are you TRYING to jinx it???
Sheesh! Everyone knows, if they haven’t happened, DON’T TALK ABOUT THEM!!!
Why do people always think I'm playing the Race Card???
Is it because I'm black???
Well this is typically bout the time of the year where Giants have their Meltdown
Get out the gates fast each year, then they fizzle out and have a losing streak…unfortunate for them, guess they have to put up with that Whiner Brandon Jacobs
as if i needed anymore bad luck in fantasy football
now bradshaw is down….. i just hope andre can come back this week

“I got a screw in my right fifth metatarsal two Februarys ago and I think the head of it is just aggravated right now,” Bradshaw said after Sunday’s game. “I think it will be fine.”
He’s a tough SOB.
I hate when the screwheads in my bones start acting up.

Which means he’s still better than Shady, he’s just injured.

Honestly this doesn't surprise me.
He’s always having foot/ankle problems right about the halfway mark til the end of the season… This is better for us because Jacobs is now gonna get more carries and that walking pussy can’t do shit.

I honestly never saw Bradshaw as that good of a running back to begin with. The giants really havent had a stud running back in sometime now. Its weird to think that the Eagles have had the best running backs in the division over the past decade. Seems like they are just starting to realize now what a stud running back can finally do for a team.
"Good game. Let's go eat."
Brandon Jacobs was one a few years ago, heck in 2008 that trio was borderline unstoppable. Unless it was 4th and 1 in the playoffs….

Do you mean since Tiki?
Because I don’t think they’ve had a true stud RB but they’ve gotten good seasons from Bradshaw, Jacobs, and Derrick Ward.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
The Giants had a season a few years back when they had 2 RBs gain 1000+ yards.
