They should just cut the dude.
They should just cut the dude.
That last tweet isn't inspiring.
It gives me hope that they are considering going with the best 5 instead of going with a guy was adequate 2 years ago but stinks this year.
Lang at RT with Walker or Tretter at RG is our best chance, IMO.
Makes sense, but that means we weaken two spots instead of one. We shall see.
That's exactly what they don't want to start doing Goalline. You know it. I also have doubts we will see that happening.
If Don doesn't work, which I do believe he will, there is Walker, and plenty of help to throw that way if need be.
BTW, Football Outsiders came out with their rankings. Packers #6 Overall, #1 Offense, #19 Defense, #9 STs. Seattle is ranked #24 Overall, #25, #23 and #15 respectively.
****. Not good. Not good at all.
From @RapSheet and I -- In addition his sprained MCL, Packers OT Bryan Bulaga also needs meniscus repair. Could be out a while.

Well, I guess it is time for Ted to bring in a veteran OT either through FA or trade. Personally, I have no problem with trading away picks. We need to bring this home.
He'll be out at least a month if not longer. Ugh
IR/Designated to return makes the most sense
Re: Trophies' comment just above: ain't gonna happen unless Barclay totally craters.
NFCCG continues to linger with each key injury the team suffers this season. Had such good fortune last season with regards to overall team health. Not going to be the case this season
Yeah, I know it is not in Ted's wheelhouse. Would love to see it though, because we have little depth after that. Plus, keeping Aaron clean is worth it.
I'd be surprised if there isn't a DL or OL in the NFL who doesn't have a meniscus tear of some sort. Extremely common.
They'll go with what they have for now but if the options put in some disastrous performances I could see TT trying to find help via trade
Risk with extending Bulaga was always his inability to stay on the field. Guy just can't seem to stay healthy for an extended period. Hopefully Barclay can return to his pre-injury serviceable form.
Tackle was already an area they needed to address in next year's draft, even moreso now. Bulaga is compiling a lot of surgeries on his body/knee over the past few years. Who knows how much longer he can hold up and be effective
Hip surgery + torn ACL, 2 MCL Sprains and meniscus surgery all in his left knee
they'll be alright. I remember when it seemed like every injury was season ending. Six weeks isn't bad. This team expects to play in January and he'll be there for that.
If Rodgers is healthy, this team has the advantage over any team they line up against.
#BryanBulaga @Packers MCL & meniscus "repair" If actually stitched/sewed, then 3 months recover if trim to fix, then 4-6 wk @RobDemovsky

IIRC Jermichael Finley needed a MCL/meniscus fix when he was injured in 2010. Sent him to season-ending IR taking him out of the Super Bowl run and was compounded immensely by post surgery infection which kept him down for an extended period.
So depending on the severity of the injuries Bulaga could be out for the rest of the season.
EDIT: depending on how you read this it might not be that bad but we'll see.
Can confirm timeline of 4-6 weeks for Bryan Bulaga's return. @RapSheet & @AlbertBreer 1st to report Packers tackle had torn meniscus surgery

I remember Finley chose the longer recovery option regarding his surgery since it was better for the long-term. Sounds like, from most reports, Bulaga chose the quicker method to help get him back on the field this season. Good thing the team has their BYE week during the period where Bulaga will be recovering
I wonder if Bulaga should just call it a career. That left knee has to look like spaghetti squash by now.
After he gets his second ring, then he'll start thinking about it.
Great point.
@PackersNotes: We're all worrying about how Barclay will replace Bulaga, but now what happens if, God forbid, something happens to Bakhtiari? Yikes.
Throw one of these on Bulaga and send him back out there:
Ted loves his draft picks, and Derick Sherrod is still available.
Sherrod is subtraction by addition.
I hope you guys are right about Barclay. I have zero faith in him. Hope to be proven wrong.
You're a freaking idot, Bubbleboy. Barclay played his ass off and made you look like a total fool.
The voices are back bubbleboy. Excellent!
Well duh.
Next thing we know, it's a fundraising rally for x4!
