Tretter out, Linsley in

[Harlan Huckleby]

according to his agent Alan Herman, "Knowing J.C. it's not something that's going to keep him out long, if at all."

"If at all." Gee, I wonder what the diagnosis is from Corey Linsley's agent. This is a huge problem - Linsley and Tretter both have so much at stake financially; whoever plays this Sunday may ver well end up getting starter status out of this season.

I think Tretter's agent donated his MCL and some blood platelets too.

Graham's misfit in Seattle's offense. They like to run the rock first.

J-Mike's been gone for how long? (Goddamn, I miss J-Mike!) People still talk 'bout J-Mike. How come? The fruitless Dick Rodgers isn't making anyone forget J-Mike.

Graham would be a pimp in the Pack's offense. Make '12' look like the REAL '12', Tom Brady. Like Tom and Gronk.

You can't help but live in the past. It's really something to watch.

Just don't remind him that the contract year actually drove Jermichael clinically insane.

maybe Tretter can become the fifth lineman and Donnie can, mercifully, watch from the sidelines.

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.

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.
