Collins and Williams injury report???

How many people are sad to see Rouse play? Show of hands.

I'd rather have Collins in there, and Wynn is a wuss.

I'm glad to see Rouse out there this week, because we'll have two in the box safeties against the best running team in the league, who could ask for more? The only thing I'm worried about is biting on the play-action fake, but I'm sure McCarthy will grill that hard this weekend.

I'm glad Collins is not seriously hurt. And I'm glad Rouse is getting some playing time.

We'll miss Collins in coverage, more than his detractors thing IMO

No Hand from me

RB Ryan Grant did suffer a concussion.

What a wuss. Guy has no heart.

Truth be told, every running back gets the snot knocked out of them. Those guys are hurt all the time.

I get ticked at the people who smugly say Wynn had no heart based on his injuries. Jackson, Grant and Morency have been just as injury prone. Its the nature of the position. In many cases where fans jump on the "so and so is a pussy" bandwagon, the player ends up having a decent career.

HH is a Wynn whino

Wynn is a wuss

If Jackson starts I wouldn't worry about it for at least this week.

Is that because it doesn't matter who we run against the Viking front 7?

Since Collins is going to miss some time, this is a good two week stretch for it to happen in. Both the Vikings and Panthers have terrible passing attacks. However, Collins was able to run down A. Peterson from behind a couple of times in the first game and we will miss his speed if (when) AP gets into the secondary. Rouse isnt going to catch AP. But let's see what he can do.

I'd agree. It might even be beneficial. Jackson and Morency have shown better hands than Grant (although he hasn't had many opportunities) and Wynn before that. I'm a little worried about Jackson's pass blocking though.

Too many Jacksons. I meant if Tarvaris Jackson starts at QB. He just can't seem to hit guys deep with any sort of consistency. He did hit Williamson once on a 60 yarder but he's missed about 5 wide open guys deep. Bollinger looked better so we'll see. The Vikings do have a bit of speed, Shiancoe is pretty fast for a TE and Williamson is very fast. He (Williamson) seems to have trouble tracking the ball though. Rice isn't real fast but is great at adjusting to the ball which could cause GB some problems.

I started a thread about a week ago on Rouse...now he's getting his shot. SWEET!!!! Collins is good...but he is injured in every game. It's time Rouse steps up and proves he can be our starting safety.

Is he even a possibility? I thought he was definitely out and Bollinger in. Would much prefer Jackson though.

[Bossman641]

I don't know why people are so high on Rouse. Yea, Collins misses some INT's but he doesn't make too many errors and has been pretty solid this season. IMO the drop from Collins to Rouse is huge.

Not sure Hoosier. The dude was knocked unconcious for 2 minutes after a double knee to the head. I sure wouldn't play him, and for two reasons.

1) I'd hate to see the kid have a serious injury.
2) He isn't getting it done.

In light of all the attention to concussions this year I would think sitting him for a long while would be a no brainer, so to speak. But then again, Kitna sure didn't let all the post-concussion syndrome talk get in his way.

Seriously, if Childress has any sense at all he'll use this injury as a chance to let Jackson sit, decompress and learn. Who knows, maybe Bollinger can manage the Vikes to a wild card.

Unlikely after the hole they have dug themselves. Honestly, I really don't understand why he's hitched his wagon to the guy. I don't mind they drafted Jackson but I would have thought they'd grab him in round three. I've heard other teams would have grabbed him before that but I'm not convinced. Bollinger looked bad in preseason and looked decent in his regular season games. I'd start him over either of the other guys, even if they were healthy at this point.

As a side note, what a brutal two weeks of QB injuries. Holcomb is lucky he didn't get his friggen neck broken. That was a nasty hit. Jackson was knocked cold and when he did come to he was hyperventilating. That had to be some scary stuff for both the player and the guys trying to treat him.
