Cincy Jungle is reporting that Burfict looked good at Marvin's golf tournament Sunday, crushing his drives off the tee.

Read something in an article about how he may start the season on the PUP. Not sure our defense would be able to sustain that so early in the season.

My thoughts exactly.

I'm much more concerned about his concussions than his knee.

I keep saying the same thing: Prepare for the postseason. Have the rotation in place on the defensive line, even if Hunt or Clarke struggle early, to have everyone fresh and ready for the postseason. Have a rotation in the RB corps...give Burkhead some targets to keep Gio fresh. Use all of the TEs and WRs. Get the entire team ready for the postseason.
If Burfict isn't 100%, he needs to be rested and prepped for (say it with me) the postseason.

I'm actually more concerned about AJ Green's turf toe. I've seen stats that say 50% of all athletes are still experiencing it 5 years after the first flare up. I know you have to play through the play, but I think it represents a hit to his value (instead of being the #2 NFL WR, he's merely top 10).

I have no idea. Not much being said about it.
All i know is i hope he does not come back too soon. This guy could be
the best in the league if he learned not to lead with his head so much.
With him and Paul Dawson our Linebacking core goes from one of the
worst to one of the best. That is how good these two could be.

I don't have any idea when he'll start to practice but I will be shocked if he doesn't start game 1.

Honestly I hope they hold him out as long as possible to ensure that he can come back strong and he is 100%. There is no reason to rush him back, we have peeps that can cover his spot (not his skill level) until he can come back and rock this shit. (testing the profanity filter)
