After slipping behind the Seahawks in the third quarter, the Packers rallied in the final 15 minutes of Sunday night's game to pull out a 27-17 win that improved their record to 2-0 this season. They were able to accomplish that task without running back Eddie Lacy, who left the game in the first half...

Tempted to trust Ian Rappoprt.

Kind of makes you wonder though. The same guy who recommended career ending surgery for Nick Collins and who even knows what the deal was with Franklin, just took Lacy out of the game and put him on a cart, for a "minor" injury.

There's no reason to not believe Rapoport, but hey. Jonas Gray is available. Not that it'll happen.

I have a hard time seeing Lacy leaving a game for a "minor injury" ... though I could be wrong... and I guess it depends on how you define "minor" ... as some of the former football players have said coaches/media people using the phrase "minor surgery" as "surgery that's not happening to you", meaning that's it's not minor when it's happening to you.

But I wouldn't be surprised if Lacy missed a game...

A lot probably also depends in how they feel about RB Harris and if they feel like they can smartly activate all 3 RBs (also how they feel about Kuhn playing RB if needed).

Let him sit, blessing in disguise. 2 fewer weeks of pounding, maybe fresher for late in the season.

Lets see, which side of the fence do I jump off of on this one.

Sit him for a week. It's stupid to risk further injury. We Don't need him. Its only the Chiefs.

OR

What are we playing out there? Hopscotch? (Although hopscotch on a bum ankle could be painful) Man up. Use him as a decoy.

How about I just stay on the fence and say if he can play, play him, if not sit him. I just kinda wish they would let me know by noon on Sunday. Time to hit the waiver wire and grab James Starks.

Last year when Lacy injured his ankle or foot I jumped on the sit him band wagon.
They didn't and he came out and played a helluva game.
I'm sitting this one out.
