The bottom line is Woodson is not the same player we've been accustomed to over these past seven years. He has 1 pick, 1 FF (not recovered b/c we somehow, inexplicably, have yet to recover a fumble), and 1.5 sacks. Even still, he hasn't passed the eye test much during the games. He's been called for more holdings and pass intereferences than ever before. I think much of that has to do with his slowing down game.  With the quartet of Tramon, Shields, Hayward, and House, I don't think the Packers could be in better position to weather the next six weeks. Frankly, it's fitting Hayward will get Woody's playing time given Haywards playmaking ways so far. And McMillian and Jennings have already gotten plenty of experience manning the safety spot in sub-packages. See here for more on the fill-ins: <a href="http://wp.me/p29VCs-ca" target="_blank">http://wp.me/p29VCs-ca</a> The biggest unknown will be how his loss will affect pre-snap alignment. It will be incumbent upon Tramon, Burnett, and probably even Hawk to make sure the pre-snap adjustments are made. And as others have stated, Woodson should still be on the sideline coaching up the youngsters during games.  It sucks we'll be without Woodson. But, I'm not overly worried... yet. Just cautiously optimistic in my belief the youngsters are ready.</blockquote>
