Initial Diagnosis on Jordy Nelson is Torn ACL

Dammit! I seriously hope not. I like Nelson a lot. The NFL is going to be so watered down from so many season ending injuries to stars.

I still think the reason for so many injuries is the new stupid practice rules. Teams can't practice how they want to anymore, causing half ass practices. Then when they play a legit game, they aren't ready and more injuries occur.

Anyway, I wish Jordy a speedy and healthy recovery.

I was going to make a similar thread to reassure Huddlers that we aren't the only ones suffering injuries...  In this one game, Nelson tore his ACL, and the Steelers lost Pounced and Tuitt.  Not sure how serious those Steelers injuries are, but if I'm not mistaken, both were eventually carted off.

Damn... that is awful... didn't a Packers fan just post his condolences on KB too??

And I do not mean that in any kind of snarky manner- just irony.  The number of non-contact injuries is unreal.  It didn't look that bad to me on first glance, especially compared to KB's which looked like a torn ligament from the start.

On a Panthers note, though, it just shows that the Panthers aren't the only team that will suffer a devastating loss.  Nelson was their unquestioned #1 WR just like KB.

The truth is the NFL is an apathetic place to injuries.  Still got to play games.

The injuries around the league this year seems way higher and more hurtful than ever. What the fug is going on!

There's a new version of Gatorade that makes you weak in the knees.

Wow! Everyone is getting injured. This is crazy.

In order to even things up, every team on our schedule needs to have a star player out of action, at least for our game.

In all seriousness though, I hate to see any player get a season ending injury. Most NFL careers are short enough as it is.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
