KB missing practice today with a knee injury, Kuechly back with helmet

[Sam Mills Fan]

Both are pretty big pieces of news. If KB doesn't go, are we really going to roll with just Funchess/Shepard/Samuel active?

[Burnout189]

Was there ever any news on what exactly he did to his knee? Did he just tweak it or what?

[LinvilleGorge]

It moved. 

[PantherNation123]

From what I can tell, it seems both will play.  I'm sure we are just being precautionary with KB.

 

[Hoenheim]

Start Samuel on the outside

Hopefully KB is precautionary after a scare yesteday

Am i the only one that would be somewhat okay with it if Benji had to rest a game? Not that he isnt stellar and making clutch catches, but Cam is completely missing Shepard play after play and the guy IS getting open. the Saints game stands out most to me. Shepard was open on key plays that would have made that game much more winnable and Cam completely ignored him in favor of dialing in on Funch and Benji. 

Please dont flame or poo on me. i know Benji is great and our offense may suffer some without him. But im also confident in Cam's ability to spread it around when a playmaker cant go (2015 with Benji). Just throwing something out there for discussion purposes

Yeah I get what you're saying, but you don't sit your #1 receiver just to try to get better chemistry with your 3rd or 4th receiver.  Cam will watch film and see when and where he misses Shepard... don't need to sit KB to do that.

KB out? 

 

Here comes superb owl!

He didn't have a Concussion, Schefter exposed this Coaching Staff for sure.  They probably put him in the Protocol to be EXTRA cautious.

Aside from pressers, where we hardly ever get much of anything, with a skeptical eye, watch social media, etc. for FACTS on exactly what Luke did today. The helmet itself isn't dispositive. Non contact position drills would point to stage four. Anything involving contact with other players or dummies (unfortunately, in a few cases those mean the same thing), means stage five, and that the team physician thinks he's good for full practice. However, he has to show no symptoms afterwards, and then still has to be cleared by the independent neurological consultant. As is, definitely a good sign.

Look....Im just messing with you but you went from getting on people's cases for commenting without being a doctor to doing exactly the same thing each and every time Luke's situation is mentioned.

Exposed the coaching staff? I think being extra cautious with him was definitely the right decision
