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, MM 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.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (18h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (19h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (19h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (19h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (23h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (23h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
