According to the Contra Costa Times, Charlie Garner has sore ribs as the result of a collision on Monday night. "He ran a choice route in the flat and got exposed to an overthrow," Raiders coach Bill Callahan said Tuesday. "Deltha O'Neal came off the edge and pounded him pretty good in the ribs. He took a pretty good shot, but did come back in the game. I haven't gotten the medical report yet, but I'm pretty certain that he's a little bit sore."

Actually, maybe that wasn't such a choice route after all. It was a good sign to see Garner come back into the game, which gives up hope that he will play this week. We'll keep you posted as the week goes along, but you should pick up Justin Fargas in the meantime. Tyrone Wheatley and Zack Crockett will also be involved if Garner cannot play, but Fargas probably would play the Garner role in this offense. Lastly, what is the deal with running backs and rib injuries this year?link (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=fanball-raidersgarnerhassore&prov=fanball&type=lgns)
