Green Bay Packers right tackle Bryan Bulaga went out of last Thursday night's game with an injured knee — the same surgically repaired knee that kept him out of all of last season — but if he has his way, it won't keep him out of the Packers home opener next Sunday against the New

Over/under is Wednesday after practice.

Maybe he should put on knee braces for support. The replay of his "injury" didn't look too gruesome.

If I remember correctly Bulaga said something about if it were up to him he wouldn't of been IR for the whole season last year ("short term" IR?) ... anyways my point is it's not up to him at this point (I don't think).

It seems like he wanted to play and thought he could play last season too, but the damn medical staff overruled him - that seems to be the way it is in the modern NFL. I wonder how many guys in the past played the whole season with stuff like this or last year a decade or two or three.

It makes me wonder how many kids out there say high school level and below get injuries and don't know about them and/or fight thought and they go untreated for years... and how they might effect the body.

Also kind of wonder if I might of gotten one as some point... because it seems like my knees don't act the same as each other... maybe not from football but from another sport, work or maybe stupid activities I've done...

I think I tore my MCL and pulled a Hammy just watching the Packers play. We seem cursed with these injuries to key positions.

I believe it was Marco Rivera who played a week after suffering a similar injury and then the entire rest of a season. Bulaga is cut from the same cloth, a road grading tough guy. Would not be surprised to see him out there on Sunday.

If he needs a little more time, let him sit this one out. Game plan with Sherrod and give him help. The Packers can still pull this one off, and they will need Bulaga for the rest of the season. Gut Bulaga reasonably healthy before putting him back out there.

Mucky Tundra (11h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (11h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

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.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
