This has been a nightmare season for the Green Bay Packers. Despite high expectations for the team, Aaron Rodgers and co. have started the season 3-3. These include back-to-back losses to the New York Giants and Jets, the latter of which was a surprising blow-out. It's not a good look for Green Bay as we approach the middle of the season.
The nightmare could continue on if the Packers drop their Week 7 game against the Washington Commanders. What was supposed to be a routine win for them on the schedule is now making more than a few fans nervous. The latest injury news on All-Pro OL David Bakhtiari will only worsen the anxiety fans have about this game.

The Packers' offensive line is one of the reasons why the Packers have struggled this year. The group has come under scrutiny after back-to-back sub-par performances in Week 4 and 5. They have done a bad job protecting Aaron Rodgers, especially against the Jets. Losing Bakhtiari will certainly not help the team, especially when they made his health a point of emphasis before the season.
Early this season, Matt LaFleur said David Bakhtiari would not practice 3 days in row this fall, even when he returned as full-time player.
Bakhtiari practiced 3 days in a row each of past 2 weeks. His last off day was Oct. 7. Have to wonder if #Packers overdid it with their LT.

This Week 7 game is perhaps the most important game of the Packers so far. The Commanders are not a good football team this season, but their defense has a couple of studs on their front four. If Green Bay is not careful, Jonathan Allen's group will definitely wreck havoc on Aaron Rodgers. A loss to the Commanders will be devastating to the team in more ways than one.
