Thanks for letting us know Bill.!


I think we will be just fine for personel in this game. I just hope both TJ & Cam are doing better along with any other players with ailments this time of year.


Salute the nation
 
I still want to hear something about Haden. Nobody knows anything. This makes zero sense. As I said in another thread earlier today, I am starting to believe those that think he is just shutting it down and looking forward to free agency. I always thought he was a good dude but something smells here. Going from possibly being able to play the next week to not practicing at all and missing 4 weeks with no word, no surgery, no nothing from anyone. It's just like Tuitt who showed back up to the facility over a month ago and was apparently looking like he was ready to start practicing and now, no one has seen him at the facility in weeks and he is never with the team. I'm definitely thinking both Haden and Tuitt are gone after this season.
 
Cook questionable? Everything I’m reading that there’s no way he can possibly play
 
Mattison is pretty good for a backup but definitely not Cook. Theilen should help us double Jefferson. KJ Osborne who I really liked in the draft has stepped up when called on. The trick is to get pressure on Cousins. He takes what the defense gives so if you make him hurry it’ll keep it dump passes and nothing deep.

on the NFL network tonight (i watched the replay of the game and left it on) they said he aggressively rehabbed and is begging coaches to play. I bet they let him try at least... but a dislocated shoulder is a bad thing to rush back from

Tomlin plays things weird when it comes to injuries like Belicheat does... eventually we are going to lose a pick over it... we arent always telling the whole story and thats why guys are suddenly out a long time with little word about it... how many times do you here that a guy that went on the IR was playing through something from the guys covering the team, but was never on the injury report?
 
We need to pressure Cousins but that has been hard to do this year. He's only been sacked 18 times. If we can get pressure on him, it will help tremendously. Hopefully, we will play 3 DL throughout the game and not drop down to 2.
