In looking at the 2016 schedule for the Green Bay Packers, one thing that sticks out like a sore thumb is the way-too-early bye week in week four. The Packers dealt with that back in 2013 and, as a team that have consistently dealt with more injuries that most teams, they weren't happy about it. Head coach Mike McCarthy loathes the early bye and the players surely had to be disappointed, knowing what they'll have to endure over the final 13 weeks of the season.
Last season, the Packers ironically suffered their worst injury of the entire year before the real games even started when receiver Jordy Nelson was lost to an ACL injury in the preseason.
