Deandre Hopkins not practicing (ankle)

If he can't play, our chance of winning just doubled.

From like 15% to 30%? Still not great odds even with Hopkins out... Pulling for a win but worried about the D against Murray, with or without their top wideout.

I'm currently recovering from an ankle sprain, it can be a b*tch, honestly worse than a break.

On week 3 with a boot/RICE method.  Good news is the swelling is gone but it still herrrrts. 

I quit playing bball 15 years ago for this exact reason.  Ankles sprains are the devil.

Damn, we have gotten very lucky this year if Hopkins doesn’t play. Reminds me of NO last year or the year before when they played GB without Rodgers and a few other games like that. TB didn’t have Godwin, LAC didn’t have Ingram and now Hopkins? That’s 3 stud players at positions that go against very big weaknesses on our side. I don’t recall the Raiders having any key injuries like those 3. Looks like we got the rabbit’s foot on opponents injuries. Makes up for CMC at least for 2 weeks.

I had a grade 3 high ankle sprain a few years ago, never again will I think "oh its just a sprain, why don't they just play through it"...that was a mother fuger of pain.

Raiders didn't have reported injuries, but seemed like Riggins went out of the game quickly when we played them.

Yep, you are correct. He got hurt in the 2nd quarter. He did come back for the second half but wasn’t targeted. He was 3-55 in the first half and had nothing after he returned. They did have a lead so he might not have played much at all in the second half.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
