CB Chad Scott
CB Mike Logan
QB Tommy Maddox
OL Kendall Simmons

And although they played:
Plaxico Burress (Shoulder)
Duce Staley (Knee)

"More importantly, there were no injuries on the DL/LB"
So, the most important guy in our run stop defense (Hampton) is on the IR without having an injury? And is Linebacker Kendrell Bell on vacation?

The Patsies didn't lose due to injuries, the lost because their "complicated" defensive schemes were picked apart by eventual rookie-of-the-year Ben Roethlisberger. As the Eagles will learn next Sunday, you can't stop BBR.
