Cullen Jenkins. Out for the season. This is killing the Packers right now. I never knew how important this guy is. I'm learning the hard way. KGB could never stop the run, he still can't. He's a pass rush specialist, and even sketchy at that. Until the Packers can get a legitimate replacement for Cullen Jenkins being out, this defense is going to be thrown around and run over.
GB's secondary is really banged up. Al Harris is out. Rouse, his replacement is out. Atari Bigby is out. I have "some" confidence in the depth GB has at secondary, but losing 3 of their top players certainly shows a dropoff. Even Woodson is playing with injuries including a broken toe. God forbid there should be more injuries. A.J. Hawk is also playing hurt. I am happy with 3rd string corner Trammond Williams stepping in for Harris & Rouse, considering that he's the 3rd guy to go into that spot.
Rodgers is playing ok, but his arm is definitely hurting him. I think he's only about 80% effective with his strained shoulder. You see him hanging his throwing arm like it's made out of lead between plays. GB goes to Seattle then has Indy, then a bye week. Hopefully Rodgers can get to the bye and recover. If this thing lingers all season, the Packers are really in trouble.
I'm a Packers homer and watch every game, sometimes twice on tape. I follow all of the news, watch all preseason games and everything else I can learn about my team. Maybe some of my info will help you guys 'cap the games. I'm laying off the Pack @ Seattle game because both teams are injury riddled, and those are the toughest games to evaluate because often you're evaluating players that typically don't get as much playing time. They could be hidden gems or absolute duds. Only a true scounting expert will really know for sure.
