He will be back Week 6 if I am not mistaken.
I think he'll improve the defense with his presence on the field,yes he will be shaky with his play since he hasn't played football since the 49ers game last year.But his rehab IMO has looked very good so I think it will improve the packers D more some then what we got now.Plus this will put Tramon Williams in his natural nickel position.

As we know he's out for the first 6 games because he's on the PUP. But I'm hoping he'll be in playing shape by Week 7 so he can piuck Favre a couple times to start his season with a bang. But, I will say he plays in Week 9 against the Cowgirls. Green Bay hasn't rushed Harris at all, and I don't think they will especially if we get off to a fast start.

How effective? I have no clue. I will say he'll be better in coverage than the guys we'll have out there Sunday. But if he's lost a step I have no clue what he'll be able to do this year. With an injury like that I don't know how you don't lose a step.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

He's on the PUP, so 6 weeks minimum.

He'll be rusty, but this is a guy that played in the same season that he had his spleen destroyed. Granted, this injury is different, but given his workout regime and commitment to coming back, I'm cautiously optimistic. Al's a warrior.

The getting off to a fast start part will be more than ideal, in many ways. If we have been shredded multiple times during the first six games, I fear they will rush him back. However, if we hold up decently and win the majority of our games, I could see them giving Al a few weeks of live practice before phasing him back into the games.

I like that idea!

If Al is physically ready to go, they won't keep him off the field for that long. Maybe one week at the most of practice, then they will most likely work him in at nickel and hope he is sharp enough to win back his starting spot soon afterwards.

I do not think he will be as rusty as you would expect.

Unlike Atari Bigby, Al Harris could step onto the field and play right now, but if it goes wrong consequences will be dire. I'd rather have Al for 10 games than 1.

He has been doing light training with gradual intensity, so I think he will be ready for Gameday.

I think we did the right thing by not rushing him back.

It was a good idea to put him out for the first six weeks during the softer part of our schedule. We'll need him for the second half of the season when we get to the tougher part of our schedule. His injury time and recovery will probably be similar to what Mark Tauscher went through a year ago.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (8h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (8h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (8h) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (12h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (12h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (15h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (15h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (15h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (15h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (15h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (15h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (15h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (15h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (16h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (16h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (16h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (16h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (17h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (17h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (17h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (17h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (17h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (18h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (18h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (19h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (20h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (20h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (21h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (21h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (21h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (21h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (21h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (21h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (21h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (21h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (21h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (21h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (21h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (21h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (21h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
