Bakhtiari's injury makes getting the One Seed a bit more important. Lambeau slows down rushers.

It'll be more incumbent on Rodgers not to hold the ball forever without Bakh protecting his blind side. He's done a good job of that this year, so hopefully that'll keep him upright.

That NFC Championship game made me never get that emotionally invested in sports ever again. It broke a little part of me permanently. Lol

So much so that I've taken to betting against my teams to cash in on the disappointment. :lol:


I did that in the Bucks-Magic series. Bucks looked bad in the bubble and in Game 1. I was sad at the thought of a first round exit and put down an emotional hedge bet on the Magic. What is wrong with us.

I’m a little embarrassed to say it out loud, but I’m curious what Yosh Nijman can do at tackle. He’s looked good in preseason, he’s huge, he’s made the roster (not just practice squad) two seasons now. Especially in Lambeau in January, he’d be a mauler on runs, he’s so big.

Haha same - the payout was insane. Did it for Miami too, which unfortunately ended up being realized. I could never do this in the past, but if Morgan Burnett is dumb enough to slide (sorry for bringing it up), then I can take a completely clinical approach to this.

He certainly has all the physical tools you'd want from a T but from reports coming into the league he was super duper raw. If this was week 3 and you knew Bak was done for the year I'd be ok with this experiment but not week 17 in what amounts to a playoff game.

But you're not crazy to be intrigued by him and if the pack coaches got him to refine things these past 2 years he could be battling for a starting spot next camp.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.
