Anyone worried about starting Rodgers tonight?

I know I am. Missing both tackles and a Thursday night game. The Saints were down 2 tackles last week on the road and Brees was fine against Carolina. Rodgers is at home. But it's Thursday night. Grrr! If you too are a bit/lot worried about starting him tonight would you play Wentz vs LAC Sunday instead? I know I'll stick with Rodgers but I have a bad feeling in my gut. I hate Thursday nights.

Montgomery is more a receiver anyway, it may be a HUGE game for him for fast dump offs. I would bet TE also gets big numbers here

UGH!

You guys are confusing me now.

Prior to this thread I was content to start Cobb and happy to bench Bennett.

Now you got me thinking I should bench Cobb and Start Bennett :confused:

I fell for that "both tackles are injured" trick last week with Carolina vs Saints. Carolina got ONE sack (they got 7 sacks against teams that HAD Tackles) and Brees had no trouble passing for 220yds and 3 TDs. (Teams WITH Tackles scored ZERO TDs.)

Apparently, Tackles aren't important.

Why would they be important? It's not like they actually need to live up to their name and tackle anyone.
