Packers holding their breath after Randall Cobb's shoulder injury

A few thoughts on the Green Bay Packers' 39-26 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday at Lambeau Field:

What it means: If the shoulder injury that receiver Randall Cobb sustained on the game's opening drive keeps the receiver out for any significant length of the time, then this preseason should officially be deemed a disaster for the Packers. Six days earlier, they lost fellow starting receiver Jordy Nelson to a season-ending knee injury. Cobb fell hard on his right shoulder while trying to haul in a pass from Brett Hundley, who started after the Packers held out starter Aaron Rodgers and did not play backup Scott Tolzien, who was available only in an emergency situation after getting cleared the day before the game to return from a concussion. There was no immediate word on the severity of Cobb's injury, although he returned to the sideline in the second half in street clothes.

I strongly believe he'll be ok, but these injuries disgust the shit out of me.

Micah Hyde had a neck spasm.

Bryan Bulaga has an ankle sprain, or maybe a bruise.

I think it was foolish for him and any starters to be in the game today, on offense at least. Meaningless.

As we endure injuries to GB's top 2 WR's, let us remember that the Packers are deep with WR,s and with the Best QB in the NFL, they will be fine.

The Packer Defense remains the main concern for 2015. Special Teams are running a close second to the Defense. Both need to greatly improve .

Zero2Cool (4h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (7h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (10h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (12h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (13h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (28-Apr) : T.O. son signs with the 49ers

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : UDFA Vikings sign TE – Trey Knox, South Carolina

beast (27-Apr) : Kitchen was all high from Miami, he was more lucky than talented in 2022 and it showed in 2023

beast (27-Apr) : Reportedly Packers have UDFAs Jennings and Jones

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it

Martha Careful (26-Apr) : Re: 'Kool-Aid' McKinstry. Other than Icky Woods, has there ever been a good NFLer with a childish nickname?

Nonstopdrivel (25-Apr) : Huh. I guess the F-word is censored in this fan shout.

Nonstopdrivel (25-Apr) : Anyone who doesn't hang out in the chat probably smokes pole.

TheKanataThrilla (25-Apr) : Anyone hanging out in the chat tonight?
