Bakh Out For Season

[mmmdk]

This sucks! Bakhtiari is the 2nd most important Packer as the # 1 Packer is MVP Aaron Rodgers. Last time injuries hit Packers hard we won the Super Bowl - long shot I know but I need to stay optimistic as this season took me by surprise and I want more.

[The Shadow]

Veldheer, I think, has just been signed by the Colts.

[RashanGary]

Rodgers
Alexander
Adams
Clark
Bakh


In that order for this team. We have a shot. Everyone else has been dinged up. Why not us too. Won games against weaker fronts without him. Have a real shot to win a couple still. Fingers crossed, but we just went from NFC favs to right with the crowd.

The bright side is we get to find out right out of the gate against the worst matchup if we’ll be alright. Sunday gonna be interesting for sure.

[RashanGary]

Khalil Mack. Ugh. Painful first matchup. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.

[RashanGary]

Boy, I didn’t like that Billy Turner signing much last year or the first part of this year. But he’s sure looking worth every penny of that 8 now, with our super bowl hopes still alive because of him.

[Tony Oday]

Eh AR knows how to play with a porous oLine.

Clark isn't even top 3 on defense. He is trash for his cap hit.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Khalil Mack. Ugh. Painful first matchup. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.

Fear not. Mack usually combat RTs, not LTs.

[Freak Out]

Bakh going on IR sucks balls for sure and makes the prize more difficult to attain...but they can still do this.

[RashanGary]

Eh AR knows how to play with a porous oLine.

I don’t agree with that. But I stayed steady with MVS through his tribulations so I’m a bit stubborn with my views I suppose.

Less capable at that than he used to be due to reduced mobility. See Tampa Bay game. That said, if the top 6 they have can stay healthy, they have a chance.

[KYPack]

Did anybody hear how the injury happened?

I don't imagine they want to publicize who screwed the pooch, but you'd know somebody did.

I think I read it was a non-contact drill.

[Bossman641]

Yes, non-contact. ACLs are a freak injury a lot of the time.

Wagner is off the injury list, so he'll probably go at RT. Hopefully he stays healthy. They'll trot out Turner at LT, Jenkins, Linsley, Patrick, and Wagner to start. If Wagner goes down they likely move Jenkins to RT and put Runyan in.

Patrick isn't bad; he's more technique and finesse than power so Derrick Brown was a bad matchup for him. Derrick Brown is a bad matchup for a LOT of IOL though - some scouts thought he was Top 3 player in the draft and he's gonna be a beast. That said, Patrick will have his struggles, but you obviously can win with him.

Turner's flexibility has been invaluable this year. Also, overall he's playing better this year than last. Hated the signing last year but he's proven me wrong.

Jenkins' ability to play basically anywhere on the OL is also super valuable. Some teams lose a player and their whole OL falls apart because they have to change their blocking/protection calls and it impacts the game plan.

Losing Bahk is a BIG loss, no doubt about that, especially in the passing game. I think with some luck, planning and good execution they can overcome it.
