Honest time...these injuries SCREW the Packers big time, whether they are out for the week of practice, a game, or a few weeks.

I believe a team runs off of rhythm which is obtained in practicing and playing multiple games together. These injuries will screw with the rhythm of this team.

In order of importance (imo):
1. If Rodgers is out next week, is there ONE person here who honestly thinks the Packers can beat the Dolphins?

2. Clay Matthews IS the Green Bay Packers defense, as shown yesterday.

3. I'm going to group this one. Finley AND Lee out is going to hurt our offensive production. We run our offense around the tight end. Our back ups are young and inexperienced. It will be easier for defenses to cover our WRs.

4. There isn't much going on in the secondary after Burnett's injury. Peprah has done 'okay' at best. He blew a few coverages yesterday, to be expected by a 3rd stringer.

5. Pickett is a hit-or-miss injury. Problem with his injury is 1. he could stuff the run pretty well and 2. we are already shallow on the d-line.

6. I put Nick Barnett last. Why? Dez Bishop can play ball and after watching him yesterday, I'd rather him start over Barnett anyways. Shoot me.

I didn't bother to put Grant in here because that has been overly discusses, focusing more on the 'now' injuries.

I"m not sure Matthews is quite as important as people think, but count me among those who really hopes we don't have to find out.

As for Rodgers, the team can probably afford to lose him for a game. But more than that, and they're hosed.

Which is why I keep spending every offseason yammering about the GODDAMN OFFENSIVE LINE AND HOW A "SERVICEABLE" LINE ISN"T FUCKING GOOD ENOUGH.

:horse: :horse: :horse: :horse: :horse: :horse:

Rodgers is IMO the quarterback I want above all as the GB leader right now. But I don't care how tough he is, if he's going to keep getting hammered he's going to miss time. A concussion here, a banged up shoulder there, an ankle over there.

Book it.

Sorry, my knees jerked again. It's been another fucking pissy day.

It's going to be a tough year. You don't just replace starters, especially Pro Bowl caliber players like Finley and Mathews. No team can stand the looses we've had. Making the playoffs will be quite and accomplishment.

I saw a QB go from the verge of not wanting to the snap the ball because he couldn't find Clay, to a QB who couldn't wait to snap the ball to throw it deep because he had all day.

One quarter, where the coaching staff hasn't had any chance to gameplan around his absence, is not enough evidence for me.

Losing Matthews would be a big loss, no doubt about that. But its a lesser loss than Rodgers would be. It might be survivable.

If we lose Aaron Rodgers, CM3, or Charles Woodson, season is done. (note that I'm knocking on wood as I'm typing this).

I'm wondering what's wrong with the Green Bay medical staff. Can't they just shoot our players up with the same drugs that keep Favre on the field?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
