by Tony Dejak - AP View full size photo » It's a long list for each team this week. The Green Bay Packers have 17 players listed, and the 49ers 13. But most of the injuries are not serious, and nearly everyone is expected to play. For the Packers, it's been a rough week of practice. Both RT Allen Barbre and OL Evan Dietrich-Smith were injured during practice , and I'm not expecting either of...

We're two days away from a monstrous game for the 49ers and we've got our final injury report of the week. A whole lot of probable players, but not much beyond that. Barrows thinks we'll see Matt Wilhelm starting at the Ted linebacker spot over Takeo Spikes , who remains "day-to-day." Wilhelm was solid last Thursday as a mid-game replacement for Spikes, so let's hope it carries over to Sunday....

Thursday Night Football returns tonight with another riveting matchup: MIami Dolphins @ Carolina Panthers . One has to wonder if we'll get a better performance this week than we saw with the 49ers and Bears last week. Either way, it's a big game since the Carolina Panthers are involved. The Panthers are 3 point favorites, and a loss would be huge for draft pick purposes. It's going to be an interesting...

by Jim Prisching - AP View full size photo » From Blogging the Boys : The Cowboys offense was terrible, the defense hung tough for as long as they could, but eventually buckled late in the game. This was all on the offense, though. So that's a Cowboys fan's perspective. Looking back at the play-by-play, it took the Cowboys the first 3 quarters to figure it out on offense. They were shut out for...

Dallas Cowboys coach Wade Phillips says officials told him that they made a mistake trying to review a fourth-quarter fumble that appeared to be recovered by Felix Jones before being scooped up by the Packers. Phillips said referee Jeff Triplette acknowledged that he shouldn't have allowed the play to be challenged. "They said because they ruled it a fumble all the way through, that I couldn't...

Head coach Wade Phillips said Colombo is expected to have surgery on Monday. Colombo was injured on the first play of the drive blocking for running back Marion Barber when Packers defensive tackle Johnny Jolly rolled up on the back of Colombo's leg....

Well, La Dee Da Brandon went after the NFL's policy of fining players for penalties during games, and he made some excellent points. However, in the case of Johnny Jolly's moronic headbutt, he got lucky to lose just $5k. Shoot, part of me thinks he should be docked double that for "conduct detrimental to the team."

Well, it doesn't look like Brett Favre owes Ted Thompson an apology after all. Favre, who allegedly slipped a homosexual slur about Thompson, owned the team he spent 16 years with as the Vikings sliced the Packers 38-26 on Sunday.And Favre being Favre, remained vigilant and refused to apologize. Which ultimately forced Thompson to burn the bridge on one of the franchise's most beloved sons. Even after...

Clearly as frustrated as the fans were by the two recent embarrassing losses to the Vikings and He Who Shall Not Be Named, Cullen Jenkins became the second Packers defenseman to tell the media he's not so happy with what has long been the vaunted change to the 3-4 defense under new coordinator Dom Capers. Jenkins said he and others felt "handcuffed" by the new scheme. These comments come...
