"What the hell is going on out here?!"

i hate our fucking team

[Pugger]

I wonder if he'll be invited back in 2013...?

A (roughly) 30 year old running back wih a lot of wear on the tires, beginning to break down physically? No thanks. Unless he's got an Ottis Anderson/Corey Dillon season left in him.

i don't think you just let him walk. at least offer him something and see if he still has anything left next training camp. if he does, keep him. if he doesn't, release him

theres no doubt he was head and shoulders better then any of the other running back on the team. for the brief time he played this year, he added a dimension that this team hasn't had in a long time

Johnny White had a concussion Sunday, so it's the Stark Plug and Notahman Green for Sunday, and maybe for the rest of the season it would seem.

Benson should have had the surgery as soon as possible. I suppose he did, but we didn't get the swelling report from the orthopod.

not if the Packers draft a HOF running back in the first round.

This is becoming a trend in the long line of "the injury didn't heal like we thought it would." Well, just who the hell is doing the thinking in Packerland, and why are they still employed?

i've been saying this for weeks. the training staff and team doctors need to go imo

every single injury on this team is taking longer then expected

[HarveyWallbangers]

I'm mostly serious when I say this, but we need a new trainer. How many times are our guys out longer than expected? Or some other symptom comes up well after the fact. I think Jennings and Finley (a couple of years ago) both had secondary injuries that were missed that ended up keeping them out longer than an initial injury. It seems to happen far too often for our guys.

Packer medical staff is injury prone!
