EQ is back after the bye, so if GB can manage vs ATL- they should be able to weather this storm

With the way Lazard has played they probably won’t play him.

Edit: nvm just landed and saw he got hurt. Big opportunity for ESB if Lazard is out long term.

Just for perspective, in the two games that Adams and MVS both played in, Lazard had 3 and 4 catches. As much as Rodgers and the fans love him, he's our #3 WR who stepped up bigtime without Adams when the Saints treated MVS as the big threat, successfully shutting him down.

We'll miss his blocking the most, I'd imagine.

We are probably looking at 4 to 8 weeks for Lazard if it's a sport hernia.
This is the MD he's working with, Dr. William Meyers
The guy went to a couple of 2nd rate schools like Harvard, Duke and Columbia - hopefully he knows his stuff

Schefter now saying he had surgery and is out indefinitely.

Not gonna lie. This game appears to have gotten a bit harder if this turns to be a shootout if we have both our #1 and #2 WR not playing.

I think Taco Wallace would have success against that Falcons secondary. I'm not worried about our offense.

Now the defense...?

Let's just say the over was set high... and I took it anyway

Easy to say that when the injury report was released after my comment. ;)

Happy to see he was on the field in the padded session today. Likely means he will be a go Monday unless he flares up tomorrow.

To quote McCarthy, "we'll see how he is in the morning."

Sounds like Adams and Clark are gonna be good to go. Deguara started practicing again which is great.

Seems like Julio and Jarrett will be good for them as well. Keanu Neals looking like he will be out.

Not sure what he’s provide in the run game there, but I’d like him in some of those coverage snaps from Preston.

It'd be pretty cool if we can revive his career somewhat at that spot.

And agreed. Preston Smith is so bad in coverage that Burks taking that role would be great for this defense.

When I read "Oren Burks has been cross-training" my mind auto-completed with "at safety" hehe.

That's what I thought too. WTF, OLB?

Frankly, I don't give a flying racoons left testicle if the Smiths are good in coverage or not. As long as they are great at pass rush, good at run defense, and maybe, once in a while, drop to a zone, I just don't care about their coverage ability.

I don't mean any disrespect, but that's pretty funny:
