Huge news for Ravens. Yanda is most likely the toughest guy on the offense maybe the team. I feel like if this guy is breathing he is playing.

Re: Yanda is back at practice
And that's the rub--with a deep rib contusion it hurts every time you breathe. Clobbers your stamina & could distract you at any time with a bolt of pain.
(NB Years ago I had an active case of arthritis in my torso, specifically including the small joints in the rib cage that allow it to expand. I would go months without sneezing, because every time the reflex was triggered I'd take a deep breath & get such a shot of pain in my chest I couldn't finish the sneeze. That's what I mean by distraction--& that was a reflex.)

Re: Yanda is back at practice
We are getting conflicting info.
Yanda says he feels better and was able to "do some things" at practice yet he is listed as doubtful.
I guess it must have been one hell of a bruise for him to be listed as doubtful a week later, with very little chance to play.

Re: Yanda is back at practice
Mind games from Harbaugh?
I remember Favre in his last season was ruled out all during the week and then started on gameday
Actually I'm not sure if you are allowed to jump from out to the gameday roster but anyway nobody expected him to play
Yanda is listed doubtful but I think we'll see him on Sunday
Any bit of deception to throw Mike Zimmer off would be welcome

Re: Yanda is back at practice
No way he plays this week. All of the between the lines propaganda looks pretty clear to me. He says he can breath better", he can "do some things", blah blah blah. He'll be in the shelf until the playoffs, and with any luck at all that'll be a couple of weeks.

Re: Yanda is back at practice
I think he's going to play, or try to. He IS the toughest guy on the team, unless something is broken then I can't picture him on the sideline.

You guys talking about deep muscle contusions like they're the same bruises you get playing basketball at the Y are really misunderstanding just how debilitating those things can be.
