Well this isn't very encouraging. I suppose the week is early and maybe they are being cautious. If some of these guys can't get back on the field soon - this could be another rough week.

It would be nice to get positive news about injuries for a change. I cringe every time I see an update anymore.

The other guys, I'd like to see back.

Getting concerned about Hayward.

What is with all these "hamstring" injuries???
You don't see this many on other NFL teams.
Is the conditioning they go through lacking something?

I'm pretty sure Finley will be back, and if he does play, there shouldn't be any lingering effects like with a leg injury.

Matthews IMO doesn't need to practice anyway. They should treat him like Burrus or whoever it was - that receiver who never practiced at all, just came out on Sunday and played. Let his hamstring rest. I would do the same with Jordy Nelson and Burnett and any of these other hammy guys coming back.

Hayward we will get back when we get him back, nothing to do but wait; Same with Starks. Kuhn and Bush are not that big losses anyway.

Finely will not be the same. You can bet to see some alligator arms over the middle. You heard what his son said. Don't think for a second that he's dismissing those words especially in a contract year.

I'll take the special teams hit with having Davon House so I can have the better CB go in on defense if necessary over Jarrett Bush.

Im getting pissed! -

I mean come on - hamstring injuries - they need to hire some peeps that know anything about the body and gets these guys to stretch and warm up appropriately.

Geez.

They pay all these fancy doctors all this money to 'diagnosis' and do surgery but dont take the necessary precautions.
