Packers-Falcons Inactives: Both Bakhtiari and Bulaga are out for Sunday Night...

RED ALERT. The Packers enter Sunday’s game with a pair of starting tackles that have a combined one start between them. The worst-case scenario for the Green Bay Packers has arrived.
The Packers will be without three offensive tackles tonight when they take on the Atlanta Falcons . That group of inactive players unfortunately includes both starters: left tackle David Bakhtiari and right tackle Bryan Bulaga . Also inactive is reserve Jason Spriggs , who was ruled out on Friday.
The Packers will rely on a pair of young tackles to bookend the offensive line tonight in their place. Kyle Murphy , who started last week’s game in place of Bulaga, will suit up at one of the tackle spots — the team did not announce which one — and presumably undrafted rookie Adam Pankey will get the start on the opposite side. Pankey was called up to the 53-man roster this week.
Should one of those two players go down during the game, it is unknown who would step in for them. None of the other offensive linemen on the 53-man roster have played a snap in an NFL regular-season game at the tackle position.
The Falcons’ pass-rushers will presumably be licking their chops. Vic Beasley led the NFL with 15.5 sacks last season and will likely line up all over the field.
Joining the Packers’ tackles on the inactive report are linebacker Ahmad Brooks , who continues to work back from a concussion.

How many weeks will this continue?

No thanks, Mike.

But with both starting OTs out, Mike McCarthy is going to need to be creative on offense and Rodgers is going to need to get rid of it quickly.

You have shorter reads in each route, you chip a little more, maybe double a few times more; but that doubler has to be ready to be a threat.

You don't run to run; you only run when it can be successful. If they stack the line every play, you pass EVERY play. Rodgers needs to be patient! Hit those short routes and when they come up make 'em pay.

On 😨 Let Julio get his 125; Ya gotta stop Hooper #1, Sanu #2 and those backs #3 coming out of backfield.

Remember when I said, "How many games will our players miss, just from hamstrings alone?" Get these guys the number of that yoga instructor. Hammies typically last what, 4-6 weeks?

The D and the Ts are holding up.

The offense is letting is down, in particular Martellus Bennett. And Mike. How about some traps, screens, misdirection? SLow down that pass rush.

I thought the defense did it's part. As did Murphy and McRae.

Take away that pick call against martellus and it's a whole different game. That allowed Atlanta to double up against us. Also, take away the offense's shit suckage, we could have had this game.

You simply can't run that offense if you lose all your best OTs... at least not if you want to keep the QB healthy.

Zero2Cool (26m) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (2h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (4h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (20h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (22h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE
