That's why you are 7thFloorRA and not on the sidelines with a headset for a professional football team. IMO
It still ****** me off to see Lance Briggs walking away from the Bears game a week and a half ago in a walking boot for his ankle and then being good enough to go the following Sunday without missing a game. Tillman and Forte both had ankle injuries as well during the same game, did not finish the game and played the following Sunday. When I saw they were injured and off the field I figured they would be back the next week as they were......and when I saw Lang chilling on the bench with his shoe off I knew he would be out the following week.
IMO a good player at 85-90 percent everry week is better than a backup at 100 percent for a few weeks just so the starter can be back to 100 percent for "more important or playoff" games. I think last season showed how poor of a strategy it is to sit on your hands and wait for the playoffs. Keep the momentum...keep the ball rolling with everyone.
That's quite possible. And as we saw with Jordy, sometimes when you come back a bit too soon, you can break down and be worse off.Maybe our guy's are just babied panzy's. I mean that in all seriousness to because Shields got kicked in the ankle and missed like 5 games....i've had a bone bruise several times and may have missed 1 game at the most. I do beleive the strategy is to let these guy's heal 100% before bringing them back... which is dumb because if you play football you'll never be 100% the entire season. If you are 85-90% you should be playing. I honestly believe Matthews is healthy enough to play but they are over protecting him.

I think they want to make sure Clay is good to go for when it's do-or-die, meaning playoffs.
ohhh...good one...
That's only because we don't have a decent backupAll of this means nothing. Nobody remembers the injuries if you win, or if you lose. As pointed out by others, Rogers is the key. Game over if he goes down.
