MCCARTHY

• Jordy Nelson looked good returning to practice. I would think there's always adjustments. Have to be smart with him.
  
• Woodson decision based on doctors report. Targeted Minnesota, but not ready. I know he's disappointed.
  
• Sitton is going through protocol and hoping he'll be cleared through tomorrow.
  
• Winfield one of my favorite players on the team. Had great respect for his game. Outstanding tackler. Plays with anticipation.
  
• I think we'll put some players on the inactive list gameday who aren't injured, Haven't had to make those decisions.
  
• Practice has been altered. Cut practice today. Tomorrow have a full-padded practice.
  
• C.J. Wilson will be a big day for him on Thursday. Needs to go through pads tomorrow. Done everything he can to get back.
  
• Cobb will be limited today and tomorrow and then Friday will test to see how he's doing. In addition to ankle injury, his knee is hurt, too.
  
• Crosby has flu-like symptoms. Anytime we have that, we send them home.
  
• Impressed with the Vikings. Ponder will do well in play-action. Going to be tough in that environment indoors.
  
• We'll utilize all three backs because when game-planning didn't know whether Green's able to play.
  
• Grant definitely is in the coach's minds when game-planning. Anytime you have a hot player you're aware of it and you take advantage of it.
  
• Pro Bowl, they have to do something about that. Had a chance to coach in it. Definitely an issue. Don't know what the options are. No comparison between coaching it last year and coaching it in '08 after the '07 season.
