Cornerback DeAngelo Hall -- the Atlanta Falcons top draft pick -- will miss six to ten weeks because of a small fracture on the left side of his hip. If he's out six weeks, Hall can return for the October 24th game at Kansas City. A ten-week absence would sideline him until the Falcons face the Giants on November 21st in New York. Coach Jim Mora and his staff had high hopes for Hall, who earned a starting job on the left side after the first mini-camp. Kevin Mathis -- an eighth-year veteran entering his third season with the Falcons -- will replace Hall Friday night when Atlanta (2-1 preseason) visits the Washington Redskins (2-2) for another preseason game. Hall was injured Saturday night in a preseason win over Cincinnati.
Vick will have even more pressure on him than expected with the Defense taking a blow like this.

Yepper, a whole lot of trouble. They have so many wholes in their roster as it is. And it doesn't help matters any with Vick being a marked man in a new system.
