I was roundly ridiculed for that, but I don't mind it.I'll buck the trend and say they should sit Matthews IF the medical staff thinks his groin isn't back to 100%. We are talking about our best defensive player who just sparked a major defensive turnaround, who has a history of lowever body injuries, specifically to his hamstring and now groin. He's also got a history of re-injuring himself (hamstring and thumb). If this injury has been nagging him since Week 3 and it's now worsened to the point where he is missing practice, it leads me to a prescription of rest.Depending on what the medical staff says, my inclination as coach would be to dress him and use him only if needed for that defensive spark. There's no reason to believe that our defense can't shut down Minnesota even without Matthews.</blockquote>
