I would disagree with the statement that Greenbay is a bad match-up for LBs. Did you guys see Lance Briggs on Sunday Night? He had 16 tackles, Urlacher had 6 tackles plus a pick. You are correct that without a runnig game, GB is a bad match-up for LBs, but as shown Sunday, if they run the ball, LBs have a decent match-up.

Fletcher is a stud, and you always start your studs, but temper your expectations.

Yeah, that's not likely to be a good call. The Packers are second-to-last in rushing attempts, the Redskins have been a top ten rush defense so far (though they've not faced great matchups). But, you're right, linebackers have been productive against GB. It may be a similar situation to the Dolphins (I think) a few seasons ago when the matchup looked great but the production never lived up to what it appeared on paper.Thanks for listening.

Bloom said not to forget Sabby Piscitelli, but didn't he go on IR?

Or was he talking dynasty?

Great show. Thanks.

The Packers have been a great matchup for some LBs every other week, and bad for others. That is frustrating. Gaither and Fletcher did very little, while Briggs and Pierce lit them up.
