    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 (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.
    beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..
    dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.
    dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.
