Picture quality is by far the best and they provide multiple links per game so if one dies, just flip to another. Be sure u are running a malware detector though, I use malwarebytes which stops all the malware before it can be installed. I am not being paid by either vipbox nor malwarebytes.

    I would sit Montgomery for another week.
    It will be interesting to see if Bakh or Burnett plays.

    I would sit Montgomery for the next 14 games.

    No, we should use Ty as our change of pace back and let him give Jones a breather.

    Ya, but question is when do they bring him back? Wait till he is fully healed? Broken ribs take a couple months.

    I think Montgomery's injury is a bigger loss than is appreciated. You really need to healthy backs who can produce every game.

    He can't block...I would rather have Rip back there.

    Packers CB Kevin King has made progress through the concussion protocol, coach Mike McCarthy said. But no word on whether he's advanced enough to do some work on the practice field.

    McCarthy on Ty Montgomery: "The plan is to practice today and see how he progresses."

    David Bakhtiari is feeling better and looked good and practiced well yesterday, coach Mike McCarthy said. Could he play Sunday at Minnesota for the first time since his Week 1 hamstring injury? "We'll see what he's able to do today," McCarthy said.

    Listen, I honestly think they should rest Monty and his ribs. Those need to be healed up good for the stretch run. Even if he is RB #2 or third down guy, they will need him down the road.

    And my advice is not because I just picked up Aaron Jones in FF.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Ty Montgomery said he took some hits on his ribs in practice and "felt fine." He said it made him "feel comfortable" that he was able to absorb some hits while playing with a protective flack jacket seen here under his jersey at today's practice.

    McCarthy on Rollins: He's battling through some things. He's been in and out of games medically. I know gave up TD, but actually played well

    ITS NOT THE GOOD PLAYS WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT

    LOL. That reminds me of Corey Kluber. "I only threw two bad pitches."

    The JSO article on Rollins today was interesting. I always assumed that what he lacks in straight line speed he makes up for in quickness or agility. The JSO writer suggests he is deficient in both speed and quickness. If that is the case, what was he drafted on???

    This is the question that Thompson must be asking himself.
