Packers CB Charles Woodson (toe) will be a game-time decision in Week 2.

"At this point, he's 50-50," a source told MLive.com's Tom Kowalski. Roy Williams could benefit from Woodson being out of the lineup. Tramon Williams would draw the start if Woodson sits out against Detroit.

Pat Lee was inactive against the Vikes right?


Maybe he will get a chance this week.

I've heard almost nothing about him during pre-season.

I almost forgot we did spend a 2d round pick on him

[Pacopete4]

its weird cuz I thought he looked pretty good when I saw him in the preseason games.. Pat Lee that is

M3 said in his press conference that Wood was still trying to get some swelling down. They aren't worried about him missing practice, though, and if he feels up to it an hour before game time, then he'll play.

Also, Blackmon would be the nickle if Wood is out. M3 said that he had a good week and practice. Bush will probably perform dime if necessary. The guy's still too raw. He's got the speed and talent but has a lot to learn before he is ready for this level.

woodson better be careful, he may be the nickel back when he gets healthy

not that big of a drop off from him to t-will, but the nickel spot will be weak

I hope your being sarcastic... Woodson is 10x better than T-Will...

In my opinion Woodson is better than Harris...

i think harris making the pro bowl last year rather than woodson was ridiculous.

I disagree. The difference is that last year, opposing offenses had to scheme around Harris. He'd line up against the opposing team's number one receiver no matter where they were on the field, and he consistently took that receiver out of the game.

According to Football Outsiders, the Packers were 3rd in the league against other teams #1 receivers last year. That was ALL Harris. He was on an island with those guys and consistently made his presence felt.

Woodson had flashier numbers though because opposing offenses sent more his way to avoid Harris. He also spends more time in the slot out of preference and had better opportunities to interrupt short passes. So, his more opportunities for interceptions led to more interceptions. Also, Al has a bad reputation for being dirty, so the refs pick on him a bit (1st PI call on monday.) If he hadn't been robbed on that "forward progress" call last year in Dallas, we'd have had a shot at winning that game and his detractors would be many fewer.

C-Wood's great and all, but Al is the better bump and run corner.

...this is the time for me to go toe to toe with Woody... Shoot, I hope Woodson returns sooner rather than later.

Sit him. Need him for Dallas.

[Tony Oday]

Sit him against a Team that has two of the best WR in the game? Ah please no. Harris can take TO and they dont have a good 3rd WR in Dallas.

Do you not remember TO racking up what, a buck 150 against us last time we played them without Chuck? Please MM rest Chuck and Grant!

Harris is going to need help with T.O. 7 catches for 156 yards and a TD indicates that Harris will need more help this time.

And somebody's gonna have to cover Patrick Crayton.

[Tarlam!]

Harris can take TO and they dont have a good 3rd WR in Dallas.

Yeah, just like Harris took TO last year.

@ Boiga - good point about Harris being roibbed in the championship game.

I respectfully disagree that Al followed the #1 all the time. Not as much as the year before.

Also, you can't bump TO. He's way too big. He'll burn you.
