I'm not worried at all about about Bak or Daniels and their toughness.  Those guys give or take a pounding every play and if their lower body isn't right it saps their strength and explosion.  

It's a long season and I'd rather they be overly cautious and miss 1 game than risk a longer term injury.  

Vic Beasley is out for at least a month with a hammy. 

After two home games, the Cincinnati Bengals are 27th in the NFL in offensive yards per game (pending the Giants-Lions game tonight). 

If the Giants score a touchdown and convert the extra point, that is score 7 points this evening, the Bengals will come into Lambeau as the lowest scoring NFL team through the first two weeks of the season (4.5 points per game).

The Bengals offensive coordinator got fired three days ago.

Cincy's offensive line is a mess after long-time starting G Kevin Zeitler and LT Andrew Whitworth departed in free agency.

There is chatter that starting QB Andy Dalton might bet replaced by backup AJ McCarron.

Former Bengal WR TJ Houshmanzadheh is publicly calling out Dalton as the source of the offensive woes, while some current Bengal players are lobbying for the team to sign Kaepernick.

If the Pack can't shut down this sinking ship of an offense, then Green Bay has a problem.

For a couple seconds there it looked like MM and one of the refs might go nose to nose like Lou Pinella and Joe West. It's been a while since I've seen an NFL coach and ref have to be separated by another ref. 

I considered it a positive from the game.  I was happy to see him do it.  At the time, I would have cheered if he would have slugged the ref in the face.

It's like this: When you're falling flat on your face, the last thing you need is for the refs to come along and **** you up the ass for good measure.  

And no, it is not the reason we lost. [EDIT to clarify: I mean I'm not saying with this post that it is the reason we lost. I know no one else is either.]

Although it was a truly horrific call. It really had no bearing on the game or the outcome. Bad calls happen. 

It's just been a long time since I've seen a ref and a coach actually jaw at each other to the point someone had to intervene. Looked like MM may have crossed a line and one of the refs took a step toward him and fired back. That was fun to watch. 

On to week 3!!!

If the Pack was healthy, I'll be honest, I'd say the Bengals would have zero chance.  If Daniels, Bulaga, Bahktiari, Nelson, and Cobb are out, that would even the playing field significantly.  I'd still expect a Packers' win, but it won't be pretty.

We go from playing Julio Jones to A.J. Green.  While Green is not the physical marvel Jones is, he can be a difficult matchup because even if you've got great coverage on him, he still can go up and grab that ball out of the air even if he's got guys all over him. 

Andy Dalton has looked awful so far this year, let's hope he continues to look that way.  Keep the pressure on him and I think you can keep him in his slump.

Early guess is Jordy is back and so is Bulaga and Brooks. 

I wonder if the Daniels injury that surfaced last week (hip) is related to last night. 

Cobb and Bak might need a little more time. 

Hope is that GB makes quick work of Cincy and gets the starters a little rest by the 4th. Short week ahead of Bears Thursday nighter.

I was actually glad to see it.

One question is why can't they review that? If you can review an offsides call based on where the line of scrimmage is, why can't you review that to see if it's within a yard of the LOS?
