    I have a brand new concern. In the last 2 weeks Gates, Merriman, Castillo, Cooper, Pinnock, and Turner have all been taking time off practice "as a precaution." And sure enough they all show up 100% the next day.

    Do you think this is a good idea? That we're protecting out best assets early in the season?
    Or do you think this is a classic Norv Turner move that will backfire and make the players soft and whiny?


    Maybe this is a stupid question, but I dont care.

        it's not a dumb question


        imo - we are embarking on a journey that transcends the regular season. Our goals are lofty and there is a plan in place.

        I don't think there should be much concern with the players listed in your post.

        If it was someone that needed the reps then I say suck it up rookie.


        That being said

                        If they miss one practice out of the week I don't mind, its multiple that is the point you should worry

                          I only care if they miss games, not practices.

                                            I'm a bit nervous about Castillo and Merriman. Those two weren't at 100% when we last played New England. And with New England's MUCH improved array of receiving weapons, that could be a problem. IMO, we need those guys getting into Brady's face all game long.

                                                It's been wrongly diagnosed .. it has been since diagnosed as a sore vagina. :lol:

                                                Poor prognosis if any one cares ..

                                                                I think we're pretty healthy, after playing a physical Bears team.

                                                                That said, the one player I'm worried about is Merriman. There's no such thing as an Achilles' heel injury. If it is the tendon, it could be a chronic thing.

                                                                Shawne is overdue for a monster game, we need it tonight.
