The Packers have lost four of their last five games and will try to get back in gear Thursday against the Lions with a decimated offensive line.

Bulaga missed practice all week with an injured ankle, Lang was limited all week with a bad shoulder and Linsley was also limited all week with an ankle injury.
Aaron Rodgers has to be shaking his head as he realizes how different his offensive huddle might look against the streaking Lions, who have won three straight after starting the season 1-7.
Rodgers has struggled in recent weeks, completing no more than 57.4 percent of his passes in a game starting with a Week 9 loss at Carolina. And a makeshift offensive line won’t help matters moving forward.
