You messed up….Clinton-Dix should have gotten an F-
Nate palmer and burnette were g-
What happened to Total View game summaries? They were very well written and didn’t require watching a video…please bring that back
The Total View involved an equal amount of time spent on film review and then about another 3 hours to write the summary.
I appreciate it that people liked the Total View enough to miss it, but I have no immediate plans to bring it back. Sorry.
If it helps, I am hoping to make these videos shorter. They are not supposed to be this long.
Please don’t shorten, love the analysis and would hate to lose any of it.
Agree! Size does matter, and longer is better. I’ve learned a bunch from you about the Packers and about football in general. Thanks for that. Keep it coming or else I’ll be like ^that guy^ (somewhere up there) complaining about Total View.
A “C” is average right? Julius Peppers had 2 assisted tackles, 0 sacks, 0 run stuffs. Not quite average for a player of his stature being paid blue chip money. Although i’d agree, that was about an average “C” game for Raji. He had 0 tackles, 0 sacks, 0 everything. I understand homerism, but holy shit.
I understand being an outspoken asshole who should start his own blog, but holy shit man. Take a day off.
Game stats don’t always tell the whole story, or PFF wouldn’t exist nor spend hours watching game film to grade players.
I can give specific examples of good and bad plays for Peppers if you want the grade justified. Based off the film, he deserves a C.
And homerism is why I gave HaHa and Eddie, two of my favorite players on the team, F’s. Good call, judge.
Ha ha OWNED!! Great job on the video Shawn and great job on shutting down the haters!
PS What the fuck was Ha Ha doing out there? I mean it was crazy bad safety play. Also by the look of the tape it would seem that Raji was mostly single blocked. Thats a problem.
The main problem is the offensive play calling. You an offensive minded head coach in McCarthy who doesn’t call plays, another person in Clements who calls the plays but is NOT THE OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR, and another coach in Edgar Bennett who is offensive coordinator but doesn’t call plays.
This is really an odd arrangment and is basically offensive scheme by committee. I think therein lies the problem.
I blame that on Rodgers. He wanted more control and I think they gave it to him. From what I have read, Clements and Rodgers meet every week to go over the game plan. Rodgers is a QB, he should just shut his mouth and execute what he is told to execute. His opportunity to game plan is at the line of scrimmage, NOT in a meeting room on Wednesday afternoons.
This is a great point.
Deepsky,
This is execution. It doesn’t matter the play, if you violently and perfectly execute it.
I really think this is the best thing on the web or anywhere else about the Packers. I always learn so much…just really valuable. Thanks for doing this Shawn.
I agree with all the others. Please don’t shorten this! The longer the better. I look forward to watching this every week.
In fact, it’s probably what keeps me coming back to this site. Keep up the good work bro!
