Seahawks TE Zach Miller (ankle) headed for IR

The Seahawks have fought through injuries on both sides of the ball. Carroll's next-man-up philosophy is being put the test on a squad that still has a pair of games left against both the 49ers and division-leading Cardinals.

Wait...what?!

Doesn't every team have a next man up philosophy?

How could you not? Of course if you're a Cowboy fan you still are going to blame your loss on the fact that the next man up sucks.

Gambo quoted a report today that Nfc west has $100 million in 2014 cap dollars on IR right now. More than any other division.


Go Cards!!!

Zach Miller has 6 catches for 76 yards all season. Not sure how tough a loss this really is/

He got injured in week 3. He was always the safety blanket and one of their better blockers .... Has been a big loss, but one they have been dealing with for the past 6 weeks

There is also a trickle effect down the rest of the lineup with other backups getting banged up

Such is life in the NFL though
