Lyerla still does not know the full extent of his injury. He is scheduled for more tests on Friday, but there's a chance he might not be cleared before the preseason ends. "If I had to guess, I'd say no," he said.



Stick a fork in him for this year.

If they were good, it wouldn't be a problem.

The Packers had a positive TOP every year McCarthy has been here.

TOP also does not correlate to points or wins. You don't score more points the longer you have the ball. Like Total Passing Yards, it is one of those stats that look important but really has no impact whats so ever on winning percentage.

The Falscons and Texans had a positive TOP and the 49ers and Broncos had negative. You are pimping a meaningless stat.

Since they don't, it is a BS stat.

Fundamentals win games. Get points, don't allow points. The rest is BS. Yards, TOP all of that crap is BS. Score fast, score slow, it doesn't matter. Get quick stops or bend but don't break, it doesn't matter. If you score and you don't allow the other team to score, you win.

Besides, the Packers are winning TOP. You are complaining about a useless stat that we win anyway.
