I hope he's back for Week 5 against the Cowboys. If not, Patriots for sure.

Just a tidbit for those who wanted Eifert on IR, once on IR could not have practiced until minimum of week 6 I believe (since he had no practice in 2016).
Hopefully this means we get him back for week 5 after the 10 day break against the Cowboys and he will have 3 weeks to be ready to go much like training camp for him next few weeks.

He'll reaggrivate it and be gone for the year by this time next week. Because **** all of us.

Really need him back. Red zone offense is not doing well

Eifert could definately help it, but I am not convinced some of that isn't on Kenny Z. 1st and Goal from the 1 and you can't get a TD? It doesn't take Eifert to throw Peko in the backfield as a lead blocker, Fisher as an eligible 6th lineman, and just run it 3 times in a row in the rain.
RE: Eifert Practicing For The First Time Since Playoffs - SunsetBengal - 09-21-2016
Pop the corks! Championship, here we come!
Seriously, no need to get overly excited just yet. Will still likely be several weeks before Eiftert is in full-go condition, and a week or two after that to be in "football shape".
RE: Eifert Practicing For The First Time Since Playoffs - yellowxdiscipline - 09-21-2016
My guess is that we see him back for the New England game.

Yeah I was really scratching my head on that one. We ran it once on first and goal with Hill and then turned away from it when it didn't look pretty. It felt that way the whole game were if the run game didn't look pretty we just said screw it and passed all day. On the other hand though our o-line looks like crap in run blocking but it takes patience and you wanna ware that defense down. I think it just became really predictable.

If you have a "power" back and still cannot go big across the line to get a yard, you have problems. Bring in Peko, quarterback sneak, fade to Green... I felt like there were many possibilities left unexplored.

Nope, not listening to any hope nor hype until he's on the field.
RE: Eifert Practicing For The First Time Since Playoffs - BFritz21 - 09-21-2016
I just saw this headline on Facebook and assumed it meant that he was ready to go........ should have known better
It is good news, though, and at least he's on his way to full recovery
With our luck, I wouldn't have been surprised with "original diagnosis on Eifert was wrong, so they treated him incorrectly, and now he'll never walk again."

A long way out....but good news nonetheless.
RE: Eifert Practicing For The First Time Since Playoffs - Essex Johnson - 09-22-2016
Great news.. im thinking Dallas game he will be playing
RE: Eifert Practicing For The First Time Since Playoffs - Brownshoe - 09-22-2016
I'm hoping for him to come back in week 4, but I'm expecting him to be back week 6.

How do you know? I understand he may not be at full strength or football shape, but he could be available for 10 to 15 plays a game fairly quickly. I would take him on the field for 3rd down only or in the redzone until he is 100%.
