Packers holding their breath after Randall Cobb's shoulder injury

A few thoughts on the Green Bay Packers' 39-26 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday at Lambeau Field:

What it means: If the shoulder injury that receiver Randall Cobb sustained on the game's opening drive keeps the receiver out for any significant length of the time, then this preseason should officially be deemed a disaster for the Packers. Six days earlier, they lost fellow starting receiver Jordy Nelson to a season-ending knee injury. Cobb fell hard on his right shoulder while trying to haul in a pass from Brett Hundley, who started after the Packers held out starter Aaron Rodgers and did not play backup Scott Tolzien, who was available only in an emergency situation after getting cleared the day before the game to return from a concussion. There was no immediate word on the severity of Cobb's injury, although he returned to the sideline in the second half in street clothes.

I strongly believe he'll be ok, but these injuries disgust the shit out of me.

Micah Hyde had a neck spasm.

Bryan Bulaga has an ankle sprain, or maybe a bruise.

I think it was foolish for him and any starters to be in the game today, on offense at least. Meaningless.

As we endure injuries to GB's top 2 WR's, let us remember that the Packers are deep with WR,s and with the Best QB in the NFL, they will be fine.

The Packer Defense remains the main concern for 2015. Special Teams are running a close second to the Defense. Both need to greatly improve .
