    How long do you guys think Ben will play ? How long will Grad play ? Will Landry Jones get the whole 2nd. half ?

    I just can't get a feel for it today , need some educated guesses .

    My guess would be that given that Grad is just coming off the PUP list he will see some work but limited so he doesn't re-injure himself. Depending on how the first series goes Ben might see a second. I think they continue to have Landry getting a majority of work in just to see if he is progressing and see what they have on tape. I'm hoping for a bit more in the run game and to see LJ working the ball to his check downs and TE's maybe a screen pass or two. GB is the one that scares me as they let Rodgers play the entire first half last week so with the inexperience on the defense it could get out of control quickly.

    Tough call. It depends on how Bruce's arm is. I'd say if everything is normal, they'll run Ben for the first quarter plus a drive, Bruce into the third, and Landry to finish the game.

    Usually the starters play a half in the 3rd game of pre season, but since we have 5 games I expect our next game 4 will be the dress rehearsal for the season opener and sit out game 5, Ben one series today, if he even plays, BG 1 quarter and jones plays the rest of the game......

    Personally I hope today is the dress rehearsal just because it is a home game. Also I don't think GB front 4 is as scary as Buffalo's. I would rather see Ben get a lot of snaps today vs. against the Bills just because of the Bills defense. Want everyone to come out healthy today and if they get the win that much better. Looking forward to seeing if Landry makes more strides and seeing the defense, especially the secondary against a top end QB.
