Great news on Doubs.
After further review...
Romeo Doubs is practicing for the first time since before the preseason finale.

Still no sign of Christian Watson.

Saw this morning that Cooper Kupp may be headed to the IR with a hammy.
I had a medical appointment this morning. My provider informed me that she was a Bears fan. Should I get a referral to someone else? I’m kinda questioning her judgment now.
How are your hamstrings?
Dontayvion Wicks (hamstring) upgraded to a full participant in practice.
— Matt Schneidman (@mattschneidman) September 7, 2023
Romeo Doubs (hamstring) and Rashan Gary (knee) were limited.
Christian Watson (hamstring) and David Bakhtiari (vet rest) didn’t practice.
LaFleur said that WR Romeo Doubs took some reps and looked good in the better part of the practice.

And FWIW, and no I am not joking, Christian Watson's Mom said on MKE radio that her son "tweaked" his hamstring. Did not sound serious.
I mean, Greg Jenning's sister isn't giving those hot takes anymore. Someone has to fill this type of role.

I have worse news…this is my Kiel-ette and her husband last Monday. Will was changed Tuesday.

@MichiganPacker posted:So, if Watson, Doubs, and Wicks are all out Sunday, it leaves Reed, Toure, and Heath as the only WRs on the roster. You would have to assume Melton and/or DeBose would get called up from the practice squad.
The Packers would be looking at going into the game with their entire WR core having a total of 5 career NFL catches for 82 yards and a TD (Toure).
Their TEs have a cumulative total of 39 catches for 371 yards and 2 TDs (DeGuara).
Even with Watson and Doubs the total catches were 127 amongst all 13 WRs and TEs on the roster and the practice squad.
I wonder if this is an NFL record for lowest previous number of NFL catches on a roster? It would have to be very likely if Watson and Doubs don't play - then we are looking at 44 total catches amongst all the active players
It would be like half the offense was the college all star team.
#Packers LT David Bakhtiari said the plan is for him to play Sunday against the #Bears.

David Bakhtiari: “Practice is important, but not everybody needs practice. That’s about as clean as I can give it. Still probably gonna get fined for that.”

the bears still suck!
so did those refs that day, Majik was a full yard behind the LOS. Sheesh!
Longtime listener, first time caller here.
It's Bears week, what a time to be alive and watch this years rookie offensive player of the year Luke Musgrave slice and dice the Bears in his first game.
Go Pack!

Not exactly a ringing endorsement, ooof. Keep in mind Steno was the OL coach so if anyone would know...
Packers OC Adam Stenavich on Yosh Nijman: "Right now, he's a backup tackle for us. That's where he's at and football is a very competitive sport and some guys rise to that competition and some guys don't, so that's basically what I have to say about that."

Kenny Clark, Gary and co. can paste this right on the locker room:

Perfect opportunity to harass the scrap out of her. Every Bare or Queenie fan I come across gets the treatment!

Just remember, dig the grave deeper than normal so that you can also plant a dead dog/animal above them in the grave. Then plan endangered plants above the grave site.
I think I'm afraid of Phx Pack Fan. He "knows" too much.

You didn't teach her about the dangers of doing the duck face in selfies? Parenting fail of epic proportions.

If she's your PCP and does your annual physical, don't tell her you're a Packer fan or she might use an extra finger just for spite.

Ditka put an asterisk on a reversal that was clearly correct. What a big baby. I believe that was the year he got fired.
Edit: Wrong. Fired in 92.

Okay, boomer.

That team '89 Packers was one of my favorite Packer teams. Just so much fun and they won 10 games including beating the Niners in SF

Thanks for the reminder. I don't want to be part of something like Good Fellas when they had to go back and dig back up.
Friday updates from #Packers practice…
Romeo Doubs participating again. Same for Rashan Gary.
Christian Watson stretching on the side, not with the group.
David Bakhtiari at practice but not participating. He’s playing Sunday, but perhaps with no practice reps since August 30.
MLF presser:
@BillHuberNFL: Watson is out. Doubs is questionable.
Everyone else (Bakhtiari included) is good to go, LaFleur says.
@ByRyanWood: Matt LaFleur says he expects Christian Watson's hamstring injury to be "a week to week" thing, but the #Packers will not have their top receiver against Bears for Week 1.
Matt LaFleur on preparing for Bears without Christian Watson: "We had a whole week to prepare for this. So I wouldn't say that alters the plan too drastically. Anytime you're missing one of your better players, that throws a curveball a little bit. But it happens all the time."
Really concerned about Watson's injury tendencies...
Especially when the injuries come out of nowhere. I think the Packers are developing enough depth that if Watson can't stay on the field there are guy that can take advantage and win a more prominent role no matter how healthy Watson is. Watson really hasn't established himself in the NFL, he's just what we think is the best we have.
@YATittle posted:Really concerned about Watson's injury tendencies...
Watson was fine the entire OTAs, training camp and preseason. The Packers are overly cautious and everyone knows that. Davante Adams (ankle) , Jordy Nelson (knee) and James Jones all dealt with injuries early in their careers and some fans freaked out over it. Then they ended up being fine.
The NFL don’t and won’t stop for anyone. If it’s an issue long term, the Packers will move on. But it’s simply waayyy too early to be concerned with #9. Especially in a year where the expectations of this team are hardly lofty
@packerboi posted:Especially in a year where the expectations of this team are hardly lofty
Except by me 😉😁
They have a chance to shock the world and win 10 games or more.
I agree with you they are being cautious with #9 because it's a marathon not a sprint.
Maybe his hamstrings need to be wound up like a clock spring at the beginning of the season. He can then release the stored energy later on in the year. That's the secret to his speed.
Watson greatly effects this offense. They can win without him but they can win easier with him. Different margin of error.
The difference with Watson is he poses a threat that changes the defense.
