from Adam Shefter    I  dont  think this has been posted 
 

Packers LB Micah Parsons has been dealing with an L4/L5 facet joint sprain in his back and he may take an epidural injection prior to Sunday’s game vs. the Lions if needed to help him play, per sources.

Before trading Parsons last week, the Cowboys prescribed him a five-day plan of an anti-Inflammatory corticosteroid, a prednisone to help him recover from back tightness. They also had him on a physical therapy program.
 
Parsons has been practicing this week and he is trying to play in Sunday’s opener vs. the Lions, though one source said it still is uncertain if he will.

And now you know the rest of the story. Lol.

Sorry. Maybe im unrealistic. But I dont make guys with injuries my luxury people. Too high risk. All players deal with some injuries, but for top dollar at a position? On anything other than a 1-2 year deal? No way. Im more cautious than most though, as evidenced by my continued (and annoying i know) griping about our 2nd round RB thats injured.

That’s a good decision. I think Brown will have a bigger impact than Parsons. Without Brown, Parsons would have been a JAG, and an injured one at that. Backs don’t usually get better in this game. He may go to Green Bay and be great, or he could fade into injury obscurity.

Playing home games in the cold of green bay vs Dallas in a dome may not be the best for back issue either

For multiple 1st and a player it's not unrealistic at all. The talking heads love this because it's something to talk about before the season starts, Dallas had to move him because of Jones and I have no idea how GB justifies this if/when his health worsens. It's a gamble for sure but it's also not guaranteed on a 4th year guy and his injury history that it'sa lock to be a huge issue mov8ng forwar. I get that in the NFL injuries are just a matter of time but even not being as easy as a knee injury on a 300+ pounder it's still risky IMO. Whoever signed off on this is absolutely playing risk vs reward and it should be fun to watch play out since it won't really affect the Panthers.

I would have been pissed if they used that ammo to bring in a hurt/tweaked Parsons...especially with our D situation.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
