The Green Bay Packers escaped the Factory of Sadness with a win, but their defense absorbed another blow when starting cornerback Davon House departed with a back injury. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, House suffered a transverse process fracture and could miss multiple weeks as a result.

While a transverse process fracture sounds debilitating, it generally keeps players out only a week or two. That timeframe would allow House to return before the end of the regular season.

Bad news, House is gonna miss a week or two, meaning the Packers will be forced to start their 5th CB.

Good news, House might be back before the season is over, and Panthers are 28th in passing yards (but 5th in running yards), and their 2nd and 3rd best receivers are a RB (Christian McCaffrey) and TE (Ed Dickson). Their 4th best receiver (and 2nd best WR) has just over 200 yards on the season.

So game plan is probably going to be fairly simple, Randall on their best WR, Burnett on their TE, Martinez and/or Jones to follow McCaffrey, Haha deep and 7 others getting getting after the people in the backfield.

The running defense is going to be extra important in this one, come on Clark and Daniels... and hopefully get a healthy Perry back.

I don't see how GB can go man to man any longer. Their 5th-7th CBs are no match for anyone.

And I hate zone because everyone bails on coverage too soon and expects someone else to be there to pick them up.

Pipkin & Donatello !

Time for them to grow up and shine!

Zero is right, a little more pressure up front would help out a lot!

But to your point, agreed its a good week for House to be out.

They were playing alot of man under/2 deep v. Clev. But wont be able to do that against Carolina if Olsen is healthy.

Whitehead has looked sick on a few plays [EG He lost TE in TB for TD]; but most plays has been pretty good, especially covering the slot WR.

Hawkins can play outside and Pipkins can play slot; so were fine. We just need the same damn 5 to 6 guys practicing together during the week and playing in the game.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)
