    Per the Green Milwaukee Bay Journal Gazette Sentinel:

    Linsley will be activated this week and start Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts because starting center JC Tretter has a knee injury that will sideline him several weeks, according to a source familiar with the injury.

    Now that the team is running this pass-first O Skoo West Coast offense, it seems to me the more nimble Tretter would've been better suited to this kind of blocking.

    If you watch films of the old school WCO on youtube, you rarely ever see the QB line up in the shutgun, especially the Packers under Holmgren.

    With Rodgers penchant for holding the ball forever, I say that Pack are a modified "run-and-shoot" offense.

    Except for the TE out there. And the fullback.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Have you read Daugherty's recent column about the offense? Cook's pretty much a glorified WR. Dick Rodgers and his fat ass belong on the bench. Rip had some success against Atlanta, but I doubt it'll last now that opponents have seen the tape.

    Wait til Monty gets back. Run and shoot all day, baby!

    It will be interesting today to see how Linsley fares. Sounds like, with the Colts defensive line, he'll get a chance to knock the rust off against a very pedestrian line.
