Bulaga a "Long Shot" to Play

From NFL.com...

Packers tackle Bryan Bulaga (ankle) is also a longshot to play against the Seahawks, according to Rapoport.

If this was preseason Rodgers would ride the pine. Expect 10-13 points from our O today. If D is bad, we'll be routed.

Defense always ahead of offense this time of year which is why we almost always start slow and I picked Seattle.

Hoping Rodgers doesn't get hurt. This is football version of Irma with LT situation.

Sucks. I can't bring myself to get worked up about it though. It'll be what it is. Let's see what we get out of our running game first.

That sucks, though I expect we me might have the TE lined up next to the RT to help against speed rushes.

I believe Bennett and Kendricks were both ranked top 3 in pass protection for TEs last year.

I like that our new TEs can block but it's hard vs. Seattle in the pass game as it is without being able to utilize Marty B. That is a huge loss for us.

Gonna be a very bad matchup for us today. Don't get too down if we get buried.

If we win this one, it's incredibly encouraging going forward. Our DL may give their crappy OL fits like there's will ours. I'm very excited to see how dominant our DL is today.

Take the under on this one. Slug fest.

He plays. Even at 70% he will suck it up, tape it up and trot out to his position. If the Seattle defense lines up wide and he can't get outside to cut them off GB may make a change but to start the game Bulaga will be there.

Where is that info coming from? Bulaga on a bad wheel might be as bad as the alternative.

Curious to see the gameday inactive list 90 minutes before the gane. If Bulaga is active I believe he's going but not until.

Lied to again by the crack(ed) medical staff. Or maybe they were just wrong. 🤣

Sprained MCL. I wonder if it just happened. I'm not sure he should have been practicing, if he had an MCL.

Could be a few weeks.

No biggy.

Next man up! Might do some some chipping; but we need 5 guys in pattern and a QB makes those around him greater and executing the offense.

If a guy gets open early or we run the ball well, none of this is an issue. Execute.
