I can accept it. Put aside high hopes of that top 3 pick. Maybe they still lose every game 40-28, but we may just squeak out a win or 2 or spoil that top 3 pick.

 

Somehow getting to 6 wins would likely be where it hurts. Looking at likely outcomes, 5 wins to 6 is where it probably goes from like 5th/6th pick to falling outside the top 10 altogether.

 

Heading into that last Minny game, Poles can't be too prideful to seal what may be left of the tank in what's certain to be meaningless for both teams. It could be an exact replica of the Eagles situation a few years ago.

 

Will be interesting to see if the playbook is modified at all. I'm more than okay cutting Fields designed runs in half. Lean heavy on RB and play action and screens and get out of this season with some development and health intact.

 

Green Bay is still bad against the run and particularly against the QB run. Honestly, the Bears should have the similar approach that they did last game (GB should as well, TBF). I'm actually mostly fine with Fields running, as long as he doesn't get hit. Most of the scrambles, he doesn't take hits. It's the designed off tackle QB runs that are the most dangerous. I'd love to see them drop back as well, but that also scares me. Go to Claypool deep early and often.

 

I want to see them drop the zone read. Atlanta just went for Fields every time, which is kind of the book on that play. Hit the QB every time even if they hand off and deal with the RB getting what they get.

I LOVE the way this game is going so far. If Rodgers can’t get a td there than….man he may be cooked

 

 

Score a td and exert your dominance over this team. Send Rodgers into retirement with a humiliation. Please do this for all of us

Tanking while rooting for elite QB play is fun. 56 yard TD run? Fun. Fumbling the ball away after a great passing play to put them in range to score? Fine by me.

 

Claypool being hurt is not ideal but this is easy watching. Plus at least for now the Packers look every bit as pathetic

Wow. I guess I shouldn't have said anything.

 

We aren't allowed to have anything nice huh? First of all - that's not a fumble. But also, the guy we trade our 2nd round pick for....sucks and may be dead.

 

Terrible.

I'll give the refs this : They aren't being annoying and stupid with pass interference calls - they're letting them play and they aren't giving Rodgers whatever he whines about

 

Rodgers looks flummoxed and they aren't even getting to him in pass rush
