Rumors of a package of plays for Malik Willis.

I think that would be a mistake against this defense
Maybe. But if Willis does have a package you think it’s more likely to be run outside of let’s say the 10 yard line?

Of course, for the really really paranoid, the reports are that he will be active. Not starting, but active. Maybe he's been Wally Pipped.

He's going to win this one for Brett's father.

Also wearing Wrangler's with the extra room for his junk? This is important.

#Packers QB Jordan Love is expected to wear a brace on his left knee today against the #Vikings — his first start since suffering an MCL sprain in the Sept. 8 opener.Sources say Love took the majority of practice reps and looked better and better as the week went on. Go time.

Guesses to make a case only. NFL isn't usually trickery although we crave it for discussion and fan thoughts-
It looked like Kraft and Willis synced up and became BFFs overnight. A lot of talking in game including obvious nice catch and I don't care that you dropped it. Kraft nailed a ton of great blocks- so many OMG look at him blocks.
Idk the Minnesota D well enough but your answer is probably can Kraft win his block to free Malik running outside and I'd put my money on them at least trying inside the ten. Kraft was just sooo good at it.
The different blocking scheme is a huge wrinkle to have. They don't need Malik to use this but it's also worth a try.
Malik's presence probably helps the run game most. They'll surely talk of holding the edge and containing him rather than letting him run free and runs up the gut are just easier. Naturally then the D adjusts and a deep shot can be taken and the up n down Watson seems to have a spark to him so they probably want to feed that a bit. They don't need Love to hand off or chuck it deep and could easily do a series w Malik
*******
They practiced with Malik and Love in the same backfield.
This is probably more likely to happen. I'd say 2-3 plays and Malik does almost nothing.
Why?
Because OMG is that a bang head against wall third thing (two offenses) for DCs to worry about. Maybe a penalty or pass gives them 2nd and 1; they can waste a play being in DCs nightmares.
This is all I guess happens.
I've always been wrong when I predicted trickery/cleverness. Love's back is probably Love is back.

Packers got smoked. I’m not sure how they even got the ball as much as they did. Love kept scoring on them though. Made some good plays but the defense let the packers down. Overall love looks like a qb1

Comeback time points. There were a few things that set up that huge 2nd half for Love. 1st half was just awful, missing FGs, defense making mistakes, Love a bit rusty, some huge drops too. 2nd half defense was ballin' big time to give Love more opportunities.

Footballguy
No, not garbage time points. Packers got smoked in the 1st half. Made it a close game in the second half. Minnesota never went in to a prevent defense. Was a fight right up until the end. In the second half Love looked more like the QB we saw the second half of last year.

I ended up playing Fields. Made me nervous for a half, but he finished huge. Same with Love. Hope Geno goes off so I can trade him - maybe to the Mahomes owner

I made the same exact move. Now I may be into the shopping Fields transactor.

Sounds like it's a groin strain and nothing too serious.

Groin is a tough one though. Huge game against the Lions at home this weekend, then the bye. Tough decision for the team I'd think.

Could be a similar situation that Washington was in with Daniels. In most cases they'd rest him but it was such a big game that they needed that W.
Big division game against Detroit. At home. I know GB is usually conservative with injuries but this is a biggie.

I'm resigned to not seeing Love play during the only game I'm likely to attend this year.

Sure hope he can play. It's a huge divisional game which could have playoff implications. I'd imagine GB will do whatever they can to make sure he plays and can rest on the BYE.

Not sure I can take the chance of him not finishing the game, and there are "palatable" options out there as free agents. He's already cost me a win this year.

Same ... Picked up/Starting the venerable University of Delaware QB Joe Flacco at Minn (Dome) compared to the likely bad weather

If the game was in Detroit, you wouldn't need to worry about the bad weather.

What would be a serious injury to you?
How would you feel walking around with a damaged groin all week and reading folks that say "nothing serious"
A groin is very serious

Sure sounds like football weather

That’s the question. Debating between iffy Love and Murray vs the Bears. Fortunately they are both late games.For how long?

Even if he starts the game, I have too many concerns that he might exit early. A groin injury just doesn't seem like something that a quarterback can sustain for a full 60 minutes without compromising his form, motion, efficiency, etc.That’s the question.
