Sounds like Banjo is getting reps with the possibility of playing. Need to look at all options. Hopefully McMillan bounces back.

I'd just as soon throw Banjo out there instead of McMillan. He would surely make mistakes, but he wouldn't be timid and might make some plays like he did in the preseason.
You know what perfect pitch is?
That's when you throw the banjo in the dumpster without hitting the sides!
Old banjo joke out of many that your phrase "throw Banjo out there" brought to mind.
Realizing the positions aren't as interchangeable as some fans think, I'd love for GB to transition Hyde to S.
We've seen games where McMillian has played extremely well (@ Seattle las year) and also games where he's been pretty bad (@ Colts last year and @ SF this year). I don't think we should write him off just yet, as he is still young and playing a challenging position.
That Kendall Hunter run towards the end of the game that put the Niners in position to take the lead was a very, very poor play for McMillian. He runs down to fill the hole and for whatever reason, instead of attacking the ball carrier, he runs up to Vernon Davis and essentially plays patty-cake with him while Hunter runs right past him. Looked Walden-esque
Don't think anyone's giving up on McMillian yet but the fact the coaches want to get Banjo on the field speaks for itself.
Now Bush has apparently tweaked his hamstring.
More tackling in practice will limit ACL and other contact injuries and stretching your own groin will decrease the frequency of hamstring injuries (as well as put hair on your palms - the Sisters told me so).
Here we go again - another "hamstring!" Will MM EVER see the handwriting on the wall and realize that his head strength and conditioning coach of the last four years is losing ball games and players for him?
Afraid not. MM must go.

WTF is going on with Belicheck and his S&C coach(es)?
all those teams should all fire the S&C coach and/or the HC immediately. that would obviously heal all hamstrings and another one would never happen again. why can't GM's understand this?
Look. I realize that hamstrings happen in football. It just seems to me that when a team has significant hamstring problems with its players year after year, it is a situation that needs to be dealt with. Maybe the answer ISN'T to fire Lovat. Maybe it's to tell Lovat that he needs to modify training protocols to place greater emphasis on hamstring -pull prevention. But hearing about new guys with "a hamstring" day after day is getting extremely old.
Has anyone noticed that one thing those guys have in common is that they're all football players? Someone should look into that.
Edit: Stevie, I see you beat me to it in making that observation.

Hard to argue with this statement.
I hear the Bears players all get titanium hamstrings.
WTF is going on with Belicheck and his S&C coach(es)?
Vereen broke his wrist, obviously not enough strength built up from "groin stretching".
Screw S&C coaches, Belicheck needs to hire some S&M coaches.
Looks like Belicheck has been secretly videotaping the Packers S & C regimen
Maybe if you know how to prevent hamstring injuries, you should apply for a job with the Packers.
Now Bush has apparently tweaked his hamstring.
not a bad thing.
everyone should have mandatory hamstring removal. you don't pull 100 % of the hamstrings you don't have.
The Falcons need to remove knees it seems.
Julio Jones - Knee
Jonathan Babineaux - Knee
Thomas DeCoud - Knee
Peria Jerry - Knee
Cliff Matthews - Neck
Asante Samuel - Thigh
Sean Weatherspoon - Knee
Roddy White - Ankle
Julio Jones - Right Knee
Jonathan Babineaux - Left Knee
Jim Harbaugh - Wienie
, Satori!
Too many PEDs getting muscles too large and bulky, therefore they get strained easily.
Sounds like Banjo is getting reps with the possibility of playing. Need to look at all options. Hopefully McMillan bounces back.
A guy in the first game of his second year and you think it's time for the scrapheap? He's a physical player with a solid skillset yet you think he's done? Get back to me when he's going on year 4 and still looks the same.
Banjo isn't going to be some huge upgrade but he's worth having in the conversation considering the options. Talk about baby and bathwater.
WTF is going on with Belicheck and his S&C coach(es)?
No ****. I demand a full and in depth inquiring into this!!!
MM: Morgan's further ahead then last week. Practiced more then medical report indicates. How he does tomorrow will determine whether he plays.
MM: Sitton "looked good" today. Will see how he does. Feels better.
MM: Banjo is ready to play. Had good week of preparation.
Finley also listed as probable. Sounds like he'll play as well.
Finley and Perry are probable
Burnett, Bush and Sitton are questionable
Hayward is out
That's the injury report
We have very little chance at a W if Bush can't go.
" Redskins placekicker Kai Forbath is questionable for Sunday’s game at Green Bay with a groin injury"
I bet they bring in Tavecchio and pick his brains for top secret info on the Packers.
Questionable Bush.
If you ain't payin for it, it can't be good.
We have very little chance at a W if Bush can't go.
Devastating. Dom's gonna have to restructure the entire defense and change the schemes to compensate for the loss.
Shaved, waxed or plucked?
since it is redskins week, who fills in if, gawd forbid, Sitton can't go Sunday?
I believe MM said Barclay would move to G and Newhouse would be RT. I could be wrong about that.
that was all I could figure too. please be healthy Sitton!
