 Let Glennon start so that MT can pace (pun) how the game is headed if he is needed.

I think Floyd spent a lot of time covering today.  Well at least that is the only time I saw him.

Against the Packers our DB's have to contest every throw and our Dline has to get a ton of pressure on Rodgers.  His O-line is almost as in bad shape as ours so he needs to be hit early and often.

   

I'll repeat what I said at the time about Glennon.   I believe Pace truly believed that Glennon was a good care taker for a team looking to bridge from Cutler.  With the Browns choosing at the top of the draft, he had no guarantee to get Trubiskey, and the day before the draft the rumor out there was that Trubiskey would go number 1 overall.  When the Browns selected Garrett, the Bears had their opening and new their was buzz about their pick at 3, they could only imagine there was buzz about number 2...the 49ers said as much.  When they traded and selected Trubiskey, the 49ers did not get interest in their now owned 3rd pick and made their selection.

If Trubiskey had gone number 1 to Cleveland, it would have been interesting in hindsight to see what the Bears did at 3... we'll never know.

Whether Sitton comes back or not, Long should stay at right guard going forward.

Not sure what the reason was for the Long/Sitton swap.  I thought the LG was your puller and the RG was your mauler.  Not sure Long qualifies as a puller with the bad ankle but I'm sure the coaches will patch together what works best.  Offensive line has player pretty well this season even with the substitutions. 

Did Grasu really break his hand?

I thought I read somewhere they were switching Long because of his shoulder injury, which he never got fixed.

They just need to always run Howard to the right to not expose the bad shoulder to contact.  And run Cohen to the left where Long can block with his good shoulder.
