"Yes, we have plenty of tutus for ol’ Jay. And yes, they come in camo … something that he will need to wear in hopes that he blends into the old, tired dirt that lays within Soldier Field. He will have to do plenty of hiding from his former teammate, Julius Peppers. Speaking of old and tired, did I mention Jared Allen? If you look back, the bulk of those 15 sacks of Rodgers came several years ago when he was young and Rodgers inexperienced. Allen was stonewalled by then-rookie left tackle David Bakhtiari for not even a mention last year. I expect the same this week. But given the fact that the Packers’ offensive line has indeed had plenty of holes so far this season, they better come up with a plan this week to keep the Bears at bay. And speaking of holes … if only they would open some for Eddie Lacy and co. It’s time the Packers’ run game gets going … it couldn’t come at a better time than this week. And why is the Packers offensive line still an issue? It’s an annual event in Wisconsin – kinda like deer hunting, Christmas and New Year’s Day. We wouldn’t feel normal if the Packers’ offensive line didn’t suck. But of course they don’t suck as much as Da Bears …"

I don’t know how much the Bears actually suck considering they just beat the 49ers last week, something that the Packers couldn’t do in the Playoffs for the last two years. As long as we are discussing things that suck, let’s get back to the Packers run game. Over three games, Eddie Lacy is only averaging 3.1 yards per attempt. Aaron Rodgers has a better average at 4.7 yards per attempt then your stud running back. What is going on in Green Bay? Lacy was breaking arms and heads last year, gaining a 4.1 yards per attempt. Is it play calling, offensive line, or Lacy himself? What do you see?
