Falcons: Weiner sore
The News
Falcons offensive tackle Todd Weiner is nursing a sore right elbow and arm, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The injury worsened during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, causing Weiner to miss the majority of the second half. His status for Thursday's game against the Lions has not been determined.
Our View
Barry Stokes has been splitting time with Weiner in recent weeks. If Weiner can't play, Stokes would presumably start and take the bulk of the snaps at tackle. This should not have a major impact on Michael Vick's pass protection or the running game.

One of those things that made me chuckle.
