Certainly changes the dynamics of the season in the NFC North. 

don't we play the Packers in the first few weeks?

 

EDIT: GB schedule:

Wk2 INDY at GB
Wk3 GB at TENN
Wk4 MINN at GB
Wk5 GB at LARams
Wk6 AZ at GB
Wk7 HOU at GB

Wk9 DET at GB
Wk11 GB at CHI

so we get the first chance to get one game up on them, head to head wise.

I wonder if there is a reason they couldn't just have both teams in the same hotel?  Are they afraid of fights or coaches sneaking into opposing team's rooms to steal playbooks?

running up bar tabs and room service tips at the opposing team's expense, no doubt.

now it just comes down to the degree of the strain or tear.

Grade 1: Possibly misses Colts & Titans games
Grade 2: Misses Colts & Titans games, possibly misses Vikings & Rams games.
Grade 3: Misses Colts, Titans, Vikings, and Rams games, possibly misses Cardinals, Texans, Jaguars, Lions games.
Bye week is Week 10.
Would think worst case is back Week 11 @ Chicago after the Bye.

There have been various reports about Love’s timeline for return.

  • Tom Pelissero of NFL Media notes it could take three-to-six weeks for Love to come back.
  • Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports it’s between a Grade 1 and Grade 2 MCL sprain, which will sideline Love for “a few weeks.”
  • Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports the Packers hope it’s a three-to-four-week injury.

Tannehill szn?

Ian Rappoport:

The 36-year-old remains the highest-profile QB not under contract, a free agent since his four-year, $118 million deal with the Titans expired after last season. He has, sources say, been the subject of calls from interested teams over the course of the offseason.

Yet nothing has made the veteran leap at an opportunity. What would it take for him to leave his family and go play one more season? Essentially, the perfect opportunity.

Sources say it would take a playoff contender in need of a quarterback, a team with a strong offensive line and offensive weapons. The money also would have to be right.

i don't know if subbing for Love for a few weeks and then hitting the bench qualifies for Tannehill's need package. i don't know what kind of money GB has on hand either, to pay him, as he'll want 25-30 mil a year, right?

probably not a good match.

Head coach Matt LaFleur said at a Monday press conference that Love will not go on injured reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games before he’d be eligible to return to action, and that he’s not closing the door on Love playing this week. LaFleur said that he “couldn’t give you a percentage” on how likely it is that Love could be cleared to play against the Colts this week.

LaFleur: “He’s doing everything in his power. He’s spending a lot of time trying to get back as soon as possible, but certainly we’re not going to put him in a position if he can’t protect himself that he’d go out there.”
