Will He Or Won’t He: Week 2

Steven Jackson is in his second week of being very questionable for Sunday's game. A Coach Haslett called him "a question mark" for Sunday's game. A He was "limited in practice" on Wednesday and split carries with Antonio Pittman and Travis Minor. A That looks like bad news as far as Jackson is concerned. But, when pressed for comment, Jackson said that he is "practicing to play". A So, on the other hand, that looks like good news for Jackson. Could Haslett be playing possum by holding Jackson out of practice a bit and getting him on the injury report? A A That would force the Arizona defense to prepare for much more than Jackson. A Haslett could be holding Jackson out to limit his reps in practice so that he is fresh on Sunday. A It pays to be conservative with the Rams best offensive player so that he does not risk further injury. A However, needless to say, the Rams need Jackson this week against the Arizona Cardinals.
