Vikings4ever 499 Posted October 10, 2011 Clifton doubtful to return. If he's gone for a significant period of time, you'd have to think Finley's numbers are going to take a little bit of a hit, as they may need to keep him in to block more, or at least he'll be called on to chip block, which means less chances deep down the middle.

bjsteel 34 Posted October 10, 2011 Starting Jordy is kind of useless week to week, you never know if he's the 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc...option. One week he had one catch, good thing it went for 86 yds and a TD. Hopefully GB goes down big and stop running Starks!!! I also need Finley and Jennings to start getting some action...

Agreed, and seeing a lineman being carted to the locker room is never a sign of a small injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted October 10, 2011 Where is Cullen Jenkins? Where is Nick Collins? The Packers thought they could just walk through this season without strenthening their defense.

I mostly agree. I'm still kicking myself for dropping Nelson the first week of the season but it seems tough to project any packers besides Rodgers, Jennings and sometimes Finley. Too many options.

GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted October 10, 2011 Um...Nick Collins has a neck injury. Exactly. And no sufficeint replacements. Last year the injuries were to offensive players which the Packers really don't need as long as they have Rodgers. This year, is a different situation though. The Packers defense is paper thin.

bjsteel 34 Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) I mostly agree. I'm still kicking myself for dropping Nelson the first week of the season but it seems tough to project any packers besides Rodgers, Jennings and sometimes Finley. Too many options. Apparenty the Packers are going against what got them to 4-0, 10-different receivers have a reception? So much for Finley being uncoverable... OK, so Finley is uncoverable, but can't catch the FRIGGIN' BALL!!! Edited October 10, 2011 by bjsteel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Blue 06 195 Posted October 10, 2011 Well, the Packers are duds thus far and Atlana has had success running the ball. Therefore, it makes perfect sense for Atlanta to get the ball on their own 20 and throw 4 times (1 from penalty) and punt. Why would they run? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted October 10, 2011 He's no Jimmie Graham, that's for sure. Waited on TE and have Graham/Olsen(flex) in two leagues Graham is becoming 'Gates' like at the te position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 6,013 Posted October 10, 2011 Waited on TE and have Graham/Olsen(flex) in two leagues Graham is becoming 'Gates' like at the te position. 9th round of my 14-teamer. Almost makes up for all my bad picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted October 10, 2011 Tiny parlay on Packers -7 & over 27.5 in the 2nd half. I think alot more points should be scored. Only 20 so far? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swamp dog 0 Posted October 10, 2011 Tiny parlay on Packers -7 & over 27.5 in the 2nd half. I think alot more points should be scored. Only 20 so far? look at all the games this season where there have been second-half point explosions. this could still end up being a shootout. the red flag so far against that is that losing clifton has really seemed to throw rodgers and the offense for a loop. let's see if that is overcome.

Rodgers makes this team, not the other way around. The statement would be more accurate if it said, the Packers "Fell right into a great situation....".
