Personally, I’d start Willis and have Love dress.
I know that’s “not how teams do it,” but I think it would make perfect sense in this situation.
I also hope that we see ZERO attempts to run inside in this game.
The odds of our poor interior blocking having success against their DTs are incredibly low. Hopefully, our motion game will work.
I think Watson, Reed, and Melton need to have a good game.

Actually, it's time to see what Willis can do.
For him; It should be about Revenge.
But with Morgan and Carpenter out.
And with the nursing taking time off this week.
Keep Love out of it.
It's time to trust MLF.
And believe this Team is more than
just 1 guy at Qb.

I don’t really know what Willis can do. On the evidence of last week, a little more than he was asked. Perhaps a little more than Richardson and thus any QB in that offense is asked to do?

With an MCL, it’s ready when it’s ready. Love will either be essentially fine or not. It’s just a question of regaining the resiliency and one can tell. If it’s close then only another impact or twist can set that back and potentially make the problem much bigger. If the excess movement is fully gone then he plays.

If it’s not, brace or not, give it a week and make sure it’s the last we hear of it. Practice isn’t a game. You can do pretty much anything at 2/3 speed and no contact before the MCL is completely right. Giving it a week means not dressing him in this one. He’s either ready to start or not and it’s not worth risking a longer outage to increase the chance of a win here. The Titans have artificial turf now, which may be a consideration as well.

The Titans run defense isn't the Colts run defense, and if you expect Willis to move the offense via the passing game, you're asking for trouble. It is imperative the Packers find success on the ground, which may prove to be a challenge. We'll see.

That being said.. Every win is important in an NFL season, but an AFC matchup is one of the least important games of the season, and Love's long term health for the duration is more important than any one win.

Play Malik Willis. Suit up Clifford. Love stays inactive. IMO.

I expect MLF will attempt to sneak in some deep PA passes. The table has been set for it with last week's run heavy performance, and we have some burners who could get over the top. I'm looking squarely at Bo Melton who was running the ball out of the backfield last week. If the Packers can find occasional clean chunk plays that don't require much processing for Willis to connect to get down field and then work into scoring position on the strength of the ground game and quick, short 1st read plays, they may have a chance to keep it manageable. If they end up having to rely on Willis attempting to coordinate long drives with his arm, it's going to be very tough to win... at the end of the day, just don't rush Love back to the field. If the Packers think he's 95% ready to go, give him another week to recoup, stretch, and strengthen.

Let's see if we can eek out another win.

Packers should win this one with Willis. He had a full week to prepare better for the passing game. I agree with other posters that Tennessee will/should initially defend the run and dare Willis to move the ball through the air, and try to defend short quick throws. The Oline has to sustain just long enough for receivers to lengthen the field for defense....so start with a number of 2 TE sets to chip block, then one of them slip out. No way Tennessee can defend layered passing attack with WRs alternating deep route penetration. Only when Tennessee defense starts to soften up their box-heavy sets, then start running. This will be a fun game to watch what Willis can do with advance preparation and game plan around his skills.....hopefully a few designed runs to befuddle the defense further.

An MCL strain can easily be re-injured. If Love requires a brace, it is not healed. The Titans are a mediocre team and let La Fleur do the heavy lifting. GB tends to over-rely on their QB 1's.

The Packers need a healthy Love down the stretch when the stakes are higher, the weather colder, and wear and tear inevitable.
There are very few teams who haven't already sustained a loss-it's not the end of the world if they lose, though I don't think they will.

Dr. Cory is of the opinion Love is not ready to play, but will be ready in a week, for the Vikings.

QB Love is saying he's feeling good, moving well, good to be practicing. If the Ultra Cautious Medical Team gives clearance, he is confident he will play.

Coach Matt is wisely being coy, so the Titans will continue to have to game plan for 3 QBs. He will probably wait to announce the starter tomorrow so the Ultra Cautious Medical Team can give one last assessment of the MCL's response to exercise, practice, rest, lack of swelling, etc...in the AM. Good news the MCL was probably less than a grade 1 strain, explaining why he bounced back so quickly. (I had the same minor MCL strain that was a 10 on the initial pain scale...three days later the pain was barely noticeable)

The Ultra Cautious Medical Team has cleared Love for practice. If they clear him to play tomorrow, he will be active. If they do not clear him it may indicate some soreness, swelling, pain in movement yet.

If he is active, whether he starts or not, IDK. Matt may have a tag team behind center...he's crafty.

Whether or not Love plays or Willis starts, the key to me, based on Tennessee's rushing defense is LAF's ability to make 'in game' adjustments. We just can't continue to beat our heads against the wall but adjust, adjust and adjust as necessary.

LaFleur laughing deviously.
Love is likely close.
Expect the unexpected.
Like playing your older brother in the backyard.
This isn’t about revenge for Willis.
Giving it to Josh Jacobs 32 times will not produce a win.
Err on the side of caution.
I think Willis can do it.

Only fools rush in where the injured should fear to tread.

Nothing will be entirely lost by waiting another week, or two, if another win is achieved against Tenn.

This is a medical DOCTOR/Player decision. If he’s cleared to play he plays. If they say he is not healed and would benefit from another week he should sit. The only ones who have access to ALL the information are the DOCTORS. They are paid to make these decisions. The player also has a role, only he knows how he feels. However, sometimes Doctors have to protect players from themselves. None of us know a thing.

I'm with you. I did read that one analyst from a respectable sports page said love would miss three weeks. So if that guy was right, this is week two but I think he will be coming back next week. I hate to see him come back early and damage it more. Let it heal.

I saw JL jumping up and down and twisting his upper and lower body doing so. AR would start ...Favre would DEFINITELY start...therefore JL will start. JL is of now the best chance of winning with much longer in the system. Willis may start if management is worried enough to force it. It would be good to know snap counts of both QB's mid week on. Regardless...GPG
