OH NO, O-LINE!

It was a frustrating day for Packers head coach Mike McCarthy as he is now potentially down two starters on the offensive line. Guard Daryn Colledge sat out all of Friday's practice with a knee injury he sustained on Thursday. Tackle Chad Clifton did return to practice, freeing up rookie Bryan Bulaga to move from tackle to guard. One thing is for sure though -- Clifton and Colledge are both tentative-at-best for Monday's prime-time battle with the Bears, and Bulaga can't play both positions at the same time. Although the timing of injuries is never convenient, you have to think it's just terrible luck forcing both linemen out of action just in time to face elite pass-rusher, Julius Peppers. I'm not prepared to alter my game prediction just yet, but this development certainly could hobble offensive efforts. Let's hope for the best.
