There was some kind of complication that the MRI revealed. Possibly career ending neck damage.

LS Brett Goode placed on IR. Signed some rookie to replace him. Dunno how the hell a long snapper gets hurt bad enough for IR, but w/e.

Apparently, he was playing with a torn ACL through the last game. Not that he was on the field much, but still, pretty tough dude.

I'd be willing to wager this injury comes back to kick us in the ass come playoff time

Doesn't it just make sense though? With all the other struggles and issues this team has had over the season, it seems right that a back-up LS would be what does it.

I'm sure you had Brandon Bostick's hands atop your list of reasons green bay would botch a playoff game :rolleyes:

Don't try and patronize me when you know that's exactly the type of thing to flare up and bite us in the ass

It would be an exclamation mark on a season that has become an anomaly in terms of recent patterns and successes.

I understand what he's saying - that with all the other issues this team has, it's unlikely that a playoff caliber team comes down to one play against us. The offense is in shambles and the defense looks like they'd let TRich go for 12 ypc.

It really is a huge issue though if they can't find somebody competent to fill in. I think it was the Chargers a few years ago who couldn't replace their LS and ended up losing a few games on ST plays because of it.

In spite of the uncommon issues, we keep winning. Less flash and more grit. Defense and special teams (aside from roflcrosby) are actually performing to acceptable levels and keeping us in games. Imagine not being spotted two touchdowns last Sunday. Or if Janis doesn't make all the tackles on special teams right after the returner catches the ball.

It's a very different look for GB and it's better for the playoffs. Still, the fact that Rodgers and the WR corps can't keep it together for longer than a drive at a time is absolutely mortifying and likely won't cut it against AZ let alone in the postseason
