No, but when you're down 3-17 you can at least show some interest in the game and attempt to rally your troops. That's a leadership quality Rodgers has never had. It's when I miss Bart and Brett the most.
I'm not 100% sure (yet) that he's intentionally playing badly, but the bottom line is he's playing badly. He has always taken care of the ball and on that second interception he the just threw it up with abandon. And his reaction afterwards was, "Meh."
Yeah, that'll be enough of that!I don't get accused of that too often. Glad I got it out of the way early this year
It is really difficult to see the field on TV. But I had the feeling our guys were not getting open. I think LaFleur (or Hackett) needs to recognize that we do not respond well to tight coverage. And we need to get out of the **** and dunk or bomb to MVS mode and start looking for the 10 to 15 yard plays. We also probably need to give our other receivers more chances. Our starters really don't look that special imho.
Dillon did not go very far either. Maybe NO is better than we thought. Both lines looked very good.
Packers Snap Counts Versus The Saints
The snap counts for the Packers versus New Orleans were for the most part predictable.cheeseheadtv.com
15 pressures on 36 drop backs ~ AR faced pressure on 42% of his attempts. While not horrible that's not great, either. Not as bad as the Bear's OL getting blown back 10 yards (Cody Whitehair) but they've got to give him a cleaner pocket. I get it, they're young & inexperienced (OC & RG) but being stout in pass protection is the #1 objective of this line. #2 is moving people on run plays, which they didn't do well (at least for Jones).
yes, but on the 1 INT, there was big pressure right in his face almost immediately. right up the middle as fast as he could get there. There weren't too many plays I thought pressure was able to get to him because of holding it too long. Yes, there coverages were good, seemed like they knew what we were running when we lined up half the time. But they also beat the line pretty good too.
If #12 is thinking the way you describe PFIC, then he should quit now! I can't believe that you would even consider the thought that it would be okay to basically throw games. Time to quit defending this guy on the basis that he deserves better. Why the hell does he deserve better? He's a superstar right? Play like it in ANY situation! For the umteenth time, that's why he gets paid the big bucks! Yeah the d sucks and has for a lonnnnnnnnng time but c'mon thats not all thats going on here. The guy is a disease.
They outplayed us period. Even Jones, could have had a first down there early in the game, New set of downs, build momentum and he stopped trying to get more yards and was stopped short. Just get to the sticks, get 1st downs. Good things happen with 1st downs. We just had zero consistency for all sorts of reasons.
only if you don't put quotes around it apparently.
unfortunately, the ol is dramatically worse. not just unimproved. not just a little worse. two all-pro linemen are either gone or out for half the season. and two completely untested rookies are starting. that's 40% of the o-line. and the guys who are still here from last season are playing different positions than last season. and on top of that, there was no effort made in preseason to have the starting five play together so they could settle in a little. it makes a huge difference in the offense.
it's the same situation as the o-line. you can have a stud player like elgton jenkins, but if you surround him with guys that would not be starters on any other nfl team, he can't possibly make up for the difference. but i do think he's a little overpaid. not a lot, but a little. sometimes you have to overpay for a player when he's the only good player you have in that group.
