I'm sure he cringes a little when he watches tape of Carson getting mangled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zackattack 0 Posted July 17, 2006 What ever he will be ready by week 2 or 3 then. Why face the steelers the first week if you are 90-95%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmartassBoiler 0 Posted July 17, 2006 I personally feel that Culpepper will miss at least the first 3-4 games. I think the reason Harrington wanted to come to Miami so badly was because he knew he'd get some starting time at the beginning of the season, hoping to use that so he can showcase himself outside of the Detroit mess.

Swagger 0 Posted July 19, 2006 -- Culpepper Could Start Opening Day -- Tue Jul 18, 2006 --from FFMastermind.com Miami Dolphins QB Daunte Culpepper has a legitimate chance of starting the team's regular season opener against the Steelers according to PSX. Culpepper looked sharp and relatively smooth with his drop-backs and forward running during the team's June minicamp. Culpepper's arm already was in mid-season form at the minicamp, as he is clearly the best pure passer the team has fielded since QB Dan Marino. Culpepper already has wowed WR Chris Chambers, who is expected to build upon his 82-catch, 1,118-yard campaign in 2005. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lguero1 4 Posted July 19, 2006 What ever he will be ready by week 2 or 3 then. Why face the steelers the first week if you are 90-95%. or even just 99% healthy. if he is 90-95%, he is a warrior and he'll play. effectively? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
