You should expect Carolina to run a lot. They have two very good RB’s. Hopefully GB gets up big very quickly and they have to pass more.

And now Tramon is questionable for Sunday. After 8 days of no proigress, I question the bruise diagnosis. If he can’t play against the Bears, the Packer injury report has been relegated to the level of bird cage liner.

I think I read recently that Capers used only 2 dl’s for 65% of snaps last year. They play 2-4-5 more then any other sub-package. just maybe one reason being light at DE isn’t a huge concern especially when Raji takes so many snaps and you also have Pickett, Green, and Wynn all playing effectively.

I’m worried about the lack of depth. We’re one injury away from having a real problem at the D-line.

If Neal has a legitimate shot to play after Thanksgiving, I don’t have a problem with keeping him on the roster for now. There’s still plenty of time to monitor his rehab and, if it’s not going well, put him in IR and free up a roster spot mid-season. After all, we did beat [arguably] the NFC’s 2nd-best team last week, with fewer than 53 guys.

56,

Packer Drs. expect up to a two month recovery. We all know how he did last year and with his “A OK” injury this year. Worse, Packers anounced he will remain on the roster and tie up a spot that could be used for let’s say an Olineman and some badly needed depth.

I am having real difficulty with this issue. Everyone seems to be concerned about Clifton, me too. What if it’s somone else?
