He twisted it in the Falcons game, didn't practice all week, hurt it again in a great performance against the Cowboys, and then sprained it yet again against the Steelers and did not return to the game. Heavily-tapped up he admitted to struggling to push off in the final two games.That's not toughing it out, it's making it worse IMO. Especially for an injury-plagued team like the Packers, it still seems foolish to potentially risk losing him for an entire off-season.For reference, Lacy averaged 3.1 yards/attempt versus the Bears while Starks averaged 8.0 yards/attempt. In the playoff game, Lacy averaged 3.8 yards/attempt while Starks averaged 5.8 yards/attempt. I'm not sure what we gained out of featuring a gimpy Lacy versus a healthy Starks. I know what we gambled though.</blockquote>
