Anyone know the severity of AJ's injury? Going to this game and hope he plays. If he doesn't; my hopes of winning this game are SLIM.

So, what you're saying is, the entire success of the Packer's defense rests on one player's shoulders?
Heck of a statement. -
This is the latest statement that I've heard on the matter. The local news is basically saying the same thing.
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Linebacker A.J. Hawk missed Saturday's game with a chest sprain and didn't practice yesterday. Coach Mike generally refers to injured players as "day-to-day," but he describes Hawk's injury as "week-to-week."
Hawk says he doesn't know how long he'll be out. He says all he can do is listen to the team, and so far he hasn't been given any timelines. He says all he's worried about now is getting healed up.
While I don't think we're doomed if he doesn't play, I certainly agree that we're better off with him starting, that's for sure.Comment

Minnesota is a run-first team. Hawk is very important to week 1. I really could care less about these preseason games. Let him rest until September 8th.Originally posted by 3irty1Comment

Sorry guys... I left out Week 1... I don't give a shit if he plays in the Preseason "Games"... I just hope he's there week 1.
I don't think that's a "heck of a statement"--- I'd say it's obvious. I think the teams are rather close to each other, and missing AJ on D would be something the Queens would take advantage of. They do have the best rushing offense in the game; and LB's are somewhat important at stopping the run.Originally posted by Tarlam!
I'm a little nervous about this game... our injuries are what is making me nervous. Pickett & Hawk need to play if we want a competitive battle.Comment

I stand by my comment. You've made a "heck of a statement" I disagree with it. I think AJ has been just OK since we've had him. I definitely do not think he has carried the Packer's defense.Comment

How? He was absolutely terrible against SF. I haven't been impressed with Chillar. Or maybe you were using sarcasm?Originally posted by Harlan HucklebyComment

no sarcasm, I thought he looked good.
I haven't read any of the analysis of the game, and maybe I should not be mixing alchohol and prescription drugs during games.Comment

In my experience, mixing the two enhances my ability to report on the game. It helps even more during post game chats, when fans want the coach fired following a loss.Originally posted by Harlan HucklebyComment

I dont know, the 49ers where having their way running the ball last week. Seemed like they got 5 yd a carry at will. Have to beleive Hawk would have made a difference. Cant have that element missing against AP in week 1 or will are all gonna pissed off fans early in the season.Originally posted by Tarlam!Comment

Call me stupid, Mad, but I don't know if you're agreeing with Polish or me.Comment

When do I ever agree with you? Polish has got it right. Without Hawk it will be difficult to stop Peterson.Originally posted by Tarlam!Comment

It will be difficult to stop him no matter who is on the field.Originally posted by MadtownPacker

Well, he hasn't done much at all in preseason, but he looked solid in camp.
As always, it's hard to read into the preseason on most things.
I disagree that losing Hawk dooms Green Bay, They might lose some but it's not like Chillar is a complete dud.Comment
