From the moment Gutey and the boys drafted three wide receivers in successive rounds of the 2018 draft, I knew it was going to be trouble. The Packers had accumulated too many players at the same position. Worse yet, as...More
28I don’t think it’s even arguable: over the past few years the Packers have not prioritized drafting players who might fill its most urgent needs. It’s a particularly grave mistake if the hole to be filled is on defense. If...More
35Okay, I’m a bit of a statistics worshiper. When assessing a team’s offense, one of the most telling stats is third down success rate. The Packers’ declining rate for this benchmark mirrors their declining win-loss percentage. From 2010 through...More
4For better or worse, Randall Cobb has been almost exclusively the team’s predominant slot receiver for the past eight seasons. For better was 2014, when Cobb put up these numbers: 91 catches, 1,287 yards, 12 TDs. He also had good...More
16My previous premise was that the Packers need more talent in the WR2 slot if they are to return to being a playoff team. Of seven WRs on the current roster – Geronimo Allison, Marquez Valdes-Scantling (MVS), J’mon Moore, Equanimeous...More
7What’s the first you saw of new head coach Matt LaFleur? Probably a still photo. It revealed to me a lean, lanky, raw-boned, short-haired, no-frills youthful guy – by god, a millennial who looks like a 25-year-old marine. I liked...More
7Adams and Jones TD celebration, apparently titled “Crank That”, has made it into the final four of NFL.com’s Touchdown Celebration of the Year. They each scored the only two touchdowns for the Packers during the November game in Minnesota...More
0Did you read my take on how the common thread of the remaining four NFL playoff teams is they are all passing powerhouses? That’s a pretty obvious fact, but now let’s merge it with how the Packers have been allotting...More
10While many scoff at the idea of even watching the Pro Bowl, it was nice to see Davante Adams get some more play time before next season. Adams was the only player from the Green Bay Packers to decide to...More
6One of the finer details of the offense that Matt LaFleur is about to install in Green Bay is that receivers are used on occasion as rushers. Though it’s a tactic used sparingly, the best NFL teams leave no valuable...More
4Sorry for the lack of posts lately, I am currently traveling for the holiday. Luckily, I was on an airplane and missed the 31 – 0 shellacking the Detroit Lions gave to the Packers at our home field. Also disappointing...More
14After a dismal season, the Packers last week still seemed to be focused on winning against the Jets in New York. I would imagine they are going to take the same approach with this upcoming game being a divisional rival...More
22Packers avoided a season with no road wins by defeating the Jets this past weekend. The defense took a break but it looked like Aaron Rodgers was firing on all cylinders. The 44-38 shootout was actually a lot of fun...More
14This is the second time for Adams and the seventh for Rodgers. Packer’s banged up line should be taken into consideration when reflecting on Rodgers’ performance this year. At the core, he is still a damn good QB so this...More
17The Arizona game ended the season and here it is. The obituary for the Green Bay Packers in 2018 and Mike McCarthy to go with it. ...More
23Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams feels he's among the best in the league. Is he? He's close, but we're going to go with no....More
