Packers pregame thread

So I thought this too, but were we physically manhandled or could we just not deal with the stunts? For me, I would imagine a lot of this is on Roullier and his communication at the snap. I mean obviously the Colts defensive line is a bunch of nobodies and I can't imagine them wrecking shop with a couple of Pro Bowlers on there.

The Cardinals had a damn good defensive line and we seemed to roll over it. Wondering if it was a blocking scheme issue more than a personnel issue.I have been wondering the same thing.

This is why Cooley was so valuable.

This is going to be a tough one. Green Bay should have won last week and Minny got bailed out by a questionable roughing the passer call.

I just hope that game took a lot out of GB and we can take advantage of that.

My biggest gripe with the team is that they went away from running the ball and trying to control the clock. We don't need quick scores on this game, we need long drives that end with a TD. The best way to beat GB is to keep Rodgers on the bench.

What do you mean questionable? The NFL office said it was going to use the hit as an example of what not to do! ;)

It's seriously pathetic that they thought that Arie, who they already cut and Lauvao would be a suitable solution at LG. Now they're in a big mess and it'ss only the 3rd week of the season.

I don't understand why they just don't experiment w/ Trent at LG. Try it out for a few series.

Honestly this probably generates the best starting line. Nsekhe at LT and Trent at LG.

Sorry but I’m not putting my best lineman at left fucking guard

Seriously, I can't believe this even needs to be said.

In what universe is moving your all pro tackle to left guard the best solution?

Our LG situation has been such dogshit for so long, I don't blame people for looking for outside the box solutions, even if I don't happen to agree with this one. Simple solution would be for the team to fix it.

Over the past 20 years I feel the Oline has had the biggest swings from good to bad off any unit. Like, our d line for example has never been better than good. Our oline has at times been top and at other bottom 5.

Anyways, I say this because the during times they've been good, I've always noticed that if they had an injury it didn't drastically effect the play of the unit as a whole. Guys like Tony Bergstrom have come in and looked like competant backups and had good games. Sometimes this is when we'd find our future starters. I think everyone needs to chill. Last year the whole line was injured, that hasn't happened yet, and hopefully won't, and maybe the line will be ok.

Last week looked bad and there's no excuse, but honestly, if any unit on this team is likely to fix their problems and get right I think it's the oline.

I do agree, I am very confused about their plan at LG. It did seem they should have been able to find better competition, but I have a hard time believing that 1 weak player in the oline makes this team unable to function.

I want this week to be our Defensive front seven coming out party. There is too much talent for it to still look pedestrian. Sooner or later they will look very good, or they better, there's been too much investment there for this team to be successful unless they are.

If that happens, the secondary is good enough if they stay healthy that this is a top 10 D.

This week Josh Norman needs to get his head out of his ass. He was terrible last week. He whiffed on 3 tackles and got beat multiple times too. I'm passed thinking he's an elite corner, but he's a good one, and last week may have been his worst as a Redskin.

Defense gets 5 sacks, multiple tips, and 2 turnovers against a shaky Aaron Rodgers.

re: the bolded, I'm concerned that preparedness has something to do with that. I don't think Jay's the best tactician in the game. My patience with him is extremely thin; he either needs to post a winning season or hit the road. Nobody should be allowed to stay mediocre for this long in the NFL.

I don't see many sacks this week, Rodgers is great at quick releases.. RK and PS have been awful so far, especially Kerrigan. He looks injured or something on tape, has no fire off the ball at all.
