Packers-Falcons Inactives: Both Bakhtiari and Bulaga are out for Sunday Night...

RED ALERT. The Packers enter Sunday’s game with a pair of starting tackles that have a combined one start between them. The worst-case scenario for the Green Bay Packers has arrived.
The Packers will be without three offensive tackles tonight when they take on the Atlanta Falcons . That group of inactive players unfortunately includes both starters: left tackle David Bakhtiari and right tackle Bryan Bulaga . Also inactive is reserve Jason Spriggs , who was ruled out on Friday.
The Packers will rely on a pair of young tackles to bookend the offensive line tonight in their place. Kyle Murphy , who started last week’s game in place of Bulaga, will suit up at one of the tackle spots — the team did not announce which one — and presumably undrafted rookie Adam Pankey will get the start on the opposite side. Pankey was called up to the 53-man roster this week.
Should one of those two players go down during the game, it is unknown who would step in for them. None of the other offensive linemen on the 53-man roster have played a snap in an NFL regular-season game at the tackle position.
The Falcons’ pass-rushers will presumably be licking their chops. Vic Beasley led the NFL with 15.5 sacks last season and will likely line up all over the field.
Joining the Packers’ tackles on the inactive report are linebacker Ahmad Brooks , who continues to work back from a concussion.

How many weeks will this continue?

No thanks, Mike.

But with both starting OTs out, Mike McCarthy is going to need to be creative on offense and Rodgers is going to need to get rid of it quickly.

You have shorter reads in each route, you chip a little more, maybe double a few times more; but that doubler has to be ready to be a threat.

You don't run to run; you only run when it can be successful. If they stack the line every play, you pass EVERY play. Rodgers needs to be patient! Hit those short routes and when they come up make 'em pay.

On 😨 Let Julio get his 125; Ya gotta stop Hooper #1, Sanu #2 and those backs #3 coming out of backfield.

Remember when I said, "How many games will our players miss, just from hamstrings alone?" Get these guys the number of that yoga instructor. Hammies typically last what, 4-6 weeks?

The D and the Ts are holding up.

The offense is letting is down, in particular Martellus Bennett. And Mike. How about some traps, screens, misdirection? SLow down that pass rush.

I thought the defense did it's part. As did Murphy and McRae.

Take away that pick call against martellus and it's a whole different game. That allowed Atlanta to double up against us. Also, take away the offense's shit suckage, we could have had this game.

You simply can't run that offense if you lose all your best OTs... at least not if you want to keep the QB healthy.

Zero2Cool (7h) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (10h) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
