Packers guard Josh Sitton thinks left tackle Bryan Bulaga would be stupid to play on a torn ACL.  Dr. James Andrews agrees, with presumably more tactful verbiage. Per a league source, Dr. Andrews has recommended surgery to repair the ACL tear suffered early in Saturday night's intra-squad scrimmage.  The surgery will happen when the swelling...

Agreed. This sucks for the Packers this year, but it's a no-brainer move, and clearly what is best for him and the remainder of his career.

They said on ESPN that he has an outside chance of being available for the post-season. Question: if somebody is IRed, are they eligible for post-season?

Since this was apparently not quite as bad an ACL tear as some people get, it's a damn shame if it's true they need to do the full reconstruction thing automatically. The speculation about being available for the playoffs seems to indicate the year long recovery full reconstruction thing may NOT be automatic. Anybody know?

It's possible. Rod Woodson did it years ago. He only came back for the Super Bowl, though (I think). I'm sure there are others. I wouldn't think it was likely at all. Plus, if a team made it to the NFC Championship game or the Super Bowl, would they really want someone to play that hasn't played all season? I mean, something must have been going right if they made it that far. The only thing that could force the issue I suppose is recent injuries.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty
wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.
