IF Wagner can’t go I would like Jenkins at left and Turner at right tackles. Patrick and Runyan at guard. Linsley snapping of course. Quick to provide help if needed anywhere. Even more focus on running the ball which lessens the loss. Linsley more likely yet to be given a contract now with Bak PUP’d going into next year. Continuity so important with this O-Line. Wagner more likely to return as well. More interest yet in an OT early in the draft. This loss puts a lot of wheels in motion short and longer term.

Now your just being ridiculous....Next thing you know the league is using cyborgs in place of human beings...Not sure the teams would allow for this in their Collective Bargaining Agreements....

The Bak injury is another example of the dangers of giving huge 3rd contracts. For me, you only do this for the absolute corner stones of the teams. Centre is a position that you should be able to promote within without a risky big 3rd contract. Not saying Linsley will get an ACL but he has been picking up injuries. This isn't a contract I would consider unless we were absolutely swimming with cap space. I liked the multiple late picks on the line and I would keep doing that sort of thing. It gives you a very good chance of a very strong interior over multiple years whilst being able to swerve the 3rd contracts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have to deal with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite LTs are more valuable than centers, even if your center is one of the best like Linsley is. 🙁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incognito_man Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 At least we were able to look back at 3 games w/o Bakh this season to help prepare. Houston, Minnesota, SF. Went 2-1. Averaged 30.3 ppg over those three games. Gave up 2 sacks total in those 3 games. Rodgers had 11 TDs, 0 picks, passer ratings of 132, 111 and 147. Not as good in the run game (105 ypg - but we also didn't have Aaron Jones for 2 of those games). Won't be as easy to win, but think we can weather this if Rodgers is as on point as he has been throughout the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tperk Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Wonder if this will mean less AJD because his pass protection isn't quite as good as Jones or Williams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were already discussing OT options, but this may have just intensified that discussion both on this forum, and in the Packer FO. I'm not sure more focus will be running the ball this week with Hicks back in the line-up for Chicago and multiple rookies starting at DB for the Bears. This could be one of those games where you see a lot of bunch formations in passing situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be more AJD. I'm expecting an even more run heavy offense with Bak out. If we're not down big I expect they just pound the ball. That would bold well against high powered offensive teams like Tampa and KC. Can't win a shootout with those two teams.
