Looks like Neal might be able to practice next week. He's the wild card to our pass rush. Well, him and So'Oto. But I ain't banking on So'Oto. If Neal comes back, our road to the Superbowl gets alot easier.

I can't bank on anything with this guy until he stays healthy. So far he is just another injury prone player with some bad luck. I've been trying to follow his injury status closely on Twitter and it just seems like his injury is one big mess. He says he feels 10x better every week and we never really received the exact news of what was wrong with him.

I hope he adds something to the pass rush. I sided with playing Mike Neal and releasing Cullen Jenkins...so far eating my words.

At this point, take your damn time with him. Don't rush him. If he can't come back for another month, so be it. Do what it takes to get him healthy and (hopefully) able to contribute. Outside of a catastrophic injury, we will be in the playoffs. This is where we will need Neal the most. Do whatever it takes to make sure he's healthy by then. Anything beyond that is a complete bonus, in my opinion. Same for Clifton, really. Save him as valuable depth/potential starter for the playoffs. We can get by without them for now. It's not ideal, but would likely be worth it in the end, especially if their practicing a few weeks before the playoffs.

Zombo at least is given a shot when he played.
If So'oto was so good then why isn't coach Greene putting him in?

In some other news Zombo thinks he's going to be able to play in the Chargers game and Shileds has been cleared to play again after his concussion.

Team needs to make sure they get to the playoffs...And he is healthy at that time. However that needs to happen..

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot
