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..
