we got a lot of work to do
Whenever a major injury occurs, I hearken back to the infamous Morgan Burnett "fuck" thread.
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
Well shit, just heard the news. This is a big blow. Who else went down today. Lang - concussion? Jones? Seems a lot of big players got hurt this weekend for other teams as well.
Really sucks losing Jordy. Damn! Just sucks
Tolzien evaluated for concussion along with Lang.
Randall and Hubbard needed IVs.
Rodgers banged up on sack for safety. Could have continued to play.
M3 is not commenting on preliminary diagnosis. Wants to wait for MRI. Maybe the team gets one back for missing Charles Johnson?
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Sounds like nobody made the team today but a lot of players went backward.

Outside of the Nelson injury it was a typical preseason game. Some good. Some bad. Barclay was brutal. Bakh might be more important to this team than Jordy. Some young guys stepped up. First team offenses went back and forth. Pack took the lead because Tolzien is better than Gradkowski. Pittsburgh won because Landry Jones at this point is better than Hundley and Blanchard.

Thanks Harv. We need you on this board.

Most times when initial diagnosis is Acl, it's that or worse. This is pretty depressing
Gunter is a lock. No way does he make PS.
Walker looked feasible at both Tackle spots. But he played strictly against backups.
Randall looked the part. Rollins too, though he did have two bad moments.
There is pass rush depth on this team (Vaughters, Elliot, Palmer from A gap, Jones had a couple of good ones, Gaston)
They ran for two short yardage scores. If Harris could catch, he would be a one man red zone band.
Ripkowski can play ST coverage. A sorely needed trait. Janis can do it too.

Always appreciate Tim Masthay's honesty. Said he's struggling to punt to right side of field right now. "I gotta figure it out quick."
Well that won't make anything predictable at all.

I just watched the 1st quarter on the DVR. I'm a little depressed/irritated because of the Nelson injury. I don't like reading articles entitled, "Holding out hope for good news tomorrow with MRI." Peeps - someone says ACL, it's the f'n ACL. He's done for the year, let's face it.
Observations from the 1st quarter
- Didn't know Nelson simply landed awkward and got hurt, I figured he was tackled awkwardly or something. Now, I'm pissed even more that the "turf" caused the injury.
- I'm sick of seeing Clinton-Dix fire through a gap and not make a tackle. It looks cool, but I'm sick of the whiffs.
- The Barclay experiment has to end. I don't know if it's mental or physical, but that man is not right and he should be third string, especially the way he played today. Time for Tretter, Walker or Vujnovich...I don't care, just not Barlcay. I've like what I've seen from Vujnovich in the past.

I'm not sure when the Pack gets back to practice, but I'd bet that Barclay is not backing up the LT spot.
The way he played, I'm not sure he makes the 53. He was beyond brutal and I've only watched the 1st half so far, trying my best to key in on his play. Somethings not right with him.
I think they still trust him at RT unless they are grading his summer more harshly than reporters.
But I would be stunned if someone (Walker) doesn't get LT reps versus at least the 2s through the next preseason game. It was pretty ugly. Though Walker himself was the 9th OL that went into the game (Barclay at LT for Bach, Taylor for Sitton, Gerhart for Lang).
