    How many other teams let their players sit on the sideline for a month before giving them surgery? How many other teams have players who need to get second opinions in order to force the surgery they need?

    Rams, Patriots, Bengals, Raiders, Falcons, Eagles, Broncos and Titans are the only teams with FEWER players on injured reserve. That's crazy. To be as injured as the Packers are and there are 23 teams with more players on injured reserve is just bonkers.

    Too bad there aren't easy numbers to find about how many players missed games due to injury that were not placed on injured reserve.

    1) The injured reserve doesn't carry all the injured players... clearly TE Cook, RB Starks, CB Randall and many more have been injured for the Packers and have not had anything to do with the injured reserve list. But this method of counting injury doesn't count them.

    2) This method also doesn't factor in the value or depth of the player(s). The Packers have had a number of starters injured... Shields, Randall, Cook, Matthews, Ryan, Martinez, Lang, Lacy and probably more... all starters... are the injures on other teams a lot of their starters?

    3) I believe the Packers have released most of the players they have put on the injury reserve this season. Does this method count those players that were placed on the injury reserve and then released?

    The Packers currently only have 5 players on the IR: CB Shields, RB Lacy, RB Crockett, RB Jackson and CB Dorleant (rumor has it the Packers are going to be taking someone off the IR as well).

    But what about all the other players who were released after being put on the IR? Such as Banjo and Abby?

    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
    beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
