Someone earlier in the week, before news of Kittle's injury came out, said they had an inside source that told them he's missing the game this week, but had a chance to play next week.

If Kittle is legit in that rough of a condition, I say we let him heal up. I don't want to lose him for any longer.

This
But, IMO, he'll play this week.

Ya know I really hate hearing shanny/lynch every week talking about all our injuries so freely. There's zero advantage to being so bluntly open about it IMO.

Just say Kittle is day-to-day and leave it at that.

Why does this bother you? All coaches are vague, or err on the side of whatever they think will benefit them next game. I never believe a word any of them say on status, unless it is out for sure.
Kittle might need to rest up and power up for his epic Budda Baker rematch

Didn't mean to sound like I was ripping on you, I wasn't. Just when you said you were more concerned about Gould than Kittle...I mean Gould is a kicker, Kittle is an elite badass that never leaves the field.

No problem. Ripping was probably a bad choice of words. No question Kittle is a more important part of the team in the overall scheme of things. I just feel Kyle has more options to work around Kittle's absence than he does with Gould. Your kicker is your kicker. The only option is bringing in a guy off the street and hope the timing meshes in less than a week. As I said I don't think it will come down to a field goal but.........
He's playing but if he's out it's not like we're going up against the '85 Bears on Monday. We've got more than enough in the run game and pass game to put up points. Their Defense won't be able to stop us and that why we'll win this game by 10+
What time do they usually practice? They're practicing right now right? I have Kittle in fantasy i need to kno exactly what's going on with him.

perfect. a good ball control offense keeping wilson off the field while wearing down their defense is perfect to me


Plus Saunders is there with some nice safe hands and the ability to make great plays almost at will.

Kittle will play as it is only a pain thing. He might not be out there on every snap. We will be inserted from time to time just to play with their heads. He doesn't need to do more then that so while they are distracted Saunders or someone else gets the ball and makes yards.

Yep. We will be fine with Kittle because he will miss this game. We are good our team. We have plenty time for 8-0 records and no worries!

kittle is a difference maker. i think we are fine without gould. but no kittle is a cause for some concern


Kittle is very worth for healthy his knee first. We have plenty for 8 straight won. Next Cardinals when we will get win game. Not worry about it. Cheers bro.

I'm not sure about that. I think his long term health is more important--win or lose. I know everyone will be screaming divisional game, but having a healthy kittle provides a significant weapon for the stretch run. I say you rest him if it is physically inhibiting and you try to run the ball

Even if Saunders?

As long as he's good to go on Monday, don't need no practice

it just sounds like the team will set him monday. i am fine with that. we should be able to win anyway, but someone needs to help out sanders... long term picture here

All depends on what the actual injury is. If it's just a pain thing I think he goes. If it's something that can get worse then he sits.

I'd be fine with having him in on certain packages, 3rd downs, or RZ stuff.
