Packers Barnett out the rest of the season * Finley too

Pack loses another starter to season ending injury. These are starting to pile up at some key positions.

Looks like our Defense will thwart our Super Bowl hopes for the second year in a row (minus Charles Woodson, he is a beast)

How long is Al Harris out?

 

[jtd9046]

Hopefully Bigby and Harris can come back and be effective when they're eligible.

But as of right now, this is the 3rd starter lost this year. RB, LB, and safety.

How long is Al Harris out?

He's eligible to come off the PUP list after Week 6. Who knows if he'll be ready to come in and play right away. You're not allowed to practice on the PUP list.

Bishop is finally going to get the playing time that half the fans think he needs based on preseason

 

[MrGreg]

Bummer. I'm no Packers fan, but I don't like seeing players go down like that.

 

[Cyznutz]

I think they said that Barnetts injury is the same one that keep Urlacher out last year.

:sad:

Not good.

Big shift in the NFC North in most people's minds this week.

Vikings: + Moss

Packers: - Grant - Burnett - Barnett

Don't forget the Vikings have been down Rice, Griffin, and the Cook (the starter going into the season with griffin out)

For sure... Rice and Moss on the outside stretching the field will really open things up for Peterson, Harvin, and Shiancoe. Only thing that will hold them down is Brent.

Re: Packers Barnett out the rest of the season * Finley too

Add Finley to the season enders. Turns out there was more damage than thought and now he is likely done for the season. Things are not looking good for the Pack.

 

[jtd9046]

Check that. Move Derrick Martin from multiple weeks to season ender as well. He was just placed on the IR.

Here's an injury list from a Packers fan page (starters in parenthesis):

Al Harris (s)
Atari Bigby (s)
Morgan Burnett
Justin Harrell
Nick Barnett (s)
Brandon Chillar
Johnny Jolly (s)
Mark Taushcer (s)
Will Blackmon
Ryan Grant (s)
Jermichael Finley (s)
Donald Lee
Quinn Johnson
Clay Mathews (s)
Derrick Martin
Ryan Picket (s)

This Packers team reminds me the 2007 Bears team! It was like a sniper was in the press box picking off Bears players all year long!

 

[jtd9046]

Add the injuries to their knack for going flat in the 2nd half, this team has a long way to go. After the Dolphins this weeekend they have:

Vikings
Jets
Cowboys
Bye
Vikings
Falcons

Not exactly a schedule setup to get healthy and find replacements for the starters lost for the season.
