I can't believe some are whining about this still. Stop it already. These games are immensely meaningful. If our guys are so damn fragile to go out in the first series of an exhibition game, better to get them out now so we're prepared for the regular season. What if the Packers activated only four WR opening game and these two china dolls went down? The Packers have plenty of time to make a move or at least prepare offense for live without the two china dolls.
If you want to whine (and I do) about any player being in the line up. Eddie Lacy. I whine about that because he had only two starters playing so why have him playing? He plays a brutal position and you're adding extra hits behind an OL he'll never run behind during the next 19 games.
