No Walker, maybe no Champ and Henry

Bottom line, we have to win this game. Denver has their best players banged up while we are relatively healthy. Bly banged up his shoulder a couple times yesterday, but he did remain in the game.

Looking at Denver last night, they can't pass block worth a damn. Our DL should be able to get constant pressure on Cutler. And Cutler is one of the worst QB's in the league at adjusting to pressure as he forces errant throws and can't hold onto the ball. Denver's WR's did have a decent day against the Steelers corners, but the week off should do wonders for Harris and Woodson.

If we can hold their rushing attack, I see no reason why we don't win this game by 10+.

I know Henry may be and should be suspended, but is Champ hurt?

ok - Bailey did miss the game last night, but it said he was a game time decision. To me that means that he will probably play against us - IMO he will be ready to go, he is a gamer - only 3 missed starts since he has come into the NFL including the Steelers game last night.

Henry will be suspended, but that won't happen until the week after our game (I think). He did hurt his ribs last night and did not return.

Concerning Champ, the reason I said he might not play is because I know it takes a lot for him to miss a game. He must be hurt pretty bad if he had to miss a game against the Steelers coming off a bye.

Henry better play for the sake of my fantasy team lol. I only need him to do average, not even get a touchdown and I'm fine. Just around 60 yards on 15 carries will get me around 25 points. Willie Parker can take care of the rest.

But anyway, this is a great chance for us to go 6-1. They are banged up and we need to take advantage of that. Brandon Marshall, their WR, also got arrested yesterday night for DUI suspicion. So, who knows about him.

everyone talks about the loss of Javon Walker but the injury that I think is really underrated is Tom Nalen w/ the torn bicepts out for the season. He was a staple of that ZBS in Denver for so many years and Center is certainly not the easiest position to replace. Like people say, the Center is the quarterback of the line. Lets just hope that Wells is back - haven't heard anything yet.

just read it on packersnews.com - Wells cleared to play

Big Bubba still is not expected to play - I guess we will see what this Krause is made of - although IMO he won't get too many snaps

If walker, Bailey, and Henry are ruled out for Sunday's game, the Pack will beat down Denver like we did in 1996 when Elway was out.

I keep getting flashbacks of Olandis Gary running all over the place. The guy was unheard of at the time. This would be Selvin Young's role.

And Brad Hoover making magic on Monday night vs. the Pack...

great news of wells being cleared to play. Franks is a big loss though, even mm said krause does not offer as much as franks does because franks is a better all around te who can catch and block. krause will have a few catches but i don't think he'll do anything special. either way lee is our main tight end.
