Mike McCarthy said Murphy was having “a heckuva camp,” before practice... and Bulaga injured his ankle during practice (THANKS 🇲🇲 ! [assho] )... no word on how bad Bulaga's ankle might be (yet).

Murphy has been practicing as #2 RT and Sprigg as #2 LT, but they split the role of #1 RT after Bulaga got injured with Murphy going first every time.

GREEN BAY – No sooner had Head Coach Mike McCarthy tossed some praise Kyle Murphy’s way than the second-year offensive lineman’s practice duty unexpectedly ramped up.

Starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga limped off Ray Nitschke Field on Wednesday with an ankle injury during 9-on-7 work, elevating Murphy to the No. 1 line for the rest of the workout.

Before practice, McCarthy said Murphy was having “a heckuva camp,” coming off a solid performance in the second preseason game at Washington last Saturday. Now this weekend, he may have quite the spotlight on him.

Nothing has been announced regarding Bulaga’s ankle. But given the Packers’ conservative nature with injuries, particularly during the preseason, there’s a reasonable chance Murphy will be starting at right tackle in Denver on Saturday night, when Green Bay’s top units are expected to get their most extensive in-game work.

Murphy promises to be ready. It’s the nature of the job.

Now missing on Spriggs in that trade up looks really really bad. He was Bakhtiari insurance when he was traded up for. The extension rendered his addition pointless and now when you need him to play RT there isn't a soul out there who believes he could get it done. Time for an UDFA to step in and do better than what our former 1st rounder was doing.

Not sure about you, but I have no faith in Kyle Murphy or Jason Spriggs. It is really sad a 2nd round trade up is an afterthought for RT due to his complete ineptness.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Murphy's gonna be ok. Can probably back up at RG and RT.

Gonna be real harrowing if Denver decides to line up Von Miller over our RT for the fun of it.

I liked Murphy as a G. He was bad at RT against PHI but good last week. Id like to see more of what he can do there but not with Rodgers playing at QB. At least it's not his blind side.

Not all players will be ready after a single year... hopefully they keep learning...

It's fine for Murphy to play RT for Hundley, Callahan or Hill...but I will have concern when Murphy is out there with 12.

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
