RONNIE BROWN OUT FOR SEASON by Michael David Smith

It keeps getting worse for the Dolphins. Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald is reporting that running back Ronnie Brown is out for the season with a knee injury suffered in yesterday's loss to the Patriots.

The extent of Brown's injury is not known, but Darlington cites two sources saying an MRI revealed enough damage to confirm that Brown won't be back this year.

Brown sustained the injury during an interception return by Patriots cornerback Randall Gay. Brown had 17 carries for 76 yards before leaving Sunday's game. He entered the day on a streak of four straight 100-yard games.

With Brown out, the Dolphins will start Jesse Chatman at running back Sunday against the Giants in London. Patrick Cobbs will back up Chatman, and rookie third-round pick Lorenzo Booker could see action for the first time.

Brown has been the Dolphins' best player -- some would say their only good player -- this season, and losing him will lead to a renewed round of questions about whether this team really could go 0-16.

Damn...I was rooting for him.

tough break Dophins.

he was the only bright spot of their entire season.

he was averaging like 5.1 a carry behind that terrible o-line.

I guess its down to St. Louis and Miami for that race for the #1 Pick.

Will Miami pass on a potential starting Qb in next years draft? They should have either the 1st or 2nd pick.

Dude, WTF? I have a $500 money league and I drafted Addai, Brown, Maroney, Lewis, and Ahman Green. ALL HAVE BEEN HURT THIS YEAR.

I can't believe this crap. Brown has been the only one outside of Addai that has been consistent at all!

Broncos123 · 10-22-2007, 02:49 PM

You think they bring Ricky Williams back, now?

Jens1893 · 10-22-2007, 02:51 PM

Brown has been the best RB and one of the top 5 performers overall in my league so far.

Injury on an interception?

Hopefully it doesn't turn out to be like Terrell Davis.

They might want another top tier kick returner, you can never have enough of those you know...

Jesse Chatman was actually pretty good when he backed up LT in San Diego. I picked him up in my fantasy league as soon as I saw that Brown was hurt.

He had been my most consistent fantasy football option...back to the waiver wire.
