RR: Brandon Wegher will be back there to return kickoffs and Robert McClain will return punts. Bersin may also go back there.

I understand HIPPA, if you google his Ted Ginn Sr health since that is public knowledge then that perhaps can help put things in perspective as to why he is likely missing practice now. I respect Ginn and hope he and his family are well and will leave it at that

So why was he downgraded to doubtful and why did Rivera say his knee didn't come around? Is this a smokescreen?

Rivera befuddled by all the doubt and despair surrounding 14-1 Panthers from the outside. "I do like that chip," Rivera admitted.

REMINDER: Bersin didn’t ask to return punts last year. He was put back there & did what he could in a new spot.

Rivera: "The energy level that had been missing seemed to be back this week."

oh yeah...you want excitement?! Bersin on punt duty!  Will he catch it? Who knows!!!

like I said last year, asking Cotchery to fair catch seems like a much smarter option.  Really unfair to Bersin too.  He isn't a bad 4 or 5 WR option whose image gets tainted asked to do something he can't

you think norwood will be active?

Damn, 2 seed it is. Talk about peaking at the worst possible time.. Maybe next year we will be smart like the Seahawks and just start out crappy for the first few games of the season and get hot at the right time going into the SB..

Damn, this sucks

Its not even the end of Friday and you already conceded that the team lost...

Tre Boston talking like he's starting Sunday, which isn't surprising considering Coleman's doubtful status.

Bersin on fair catch duties means our st coach doesn't learn

Well, teams have been perfectly timing our FG snaps since last season....so, I think it is a given he doesn't learn from glaring things
