Do you guys think our game vs Seattle film will be critical for Packers

The Seahawks will not play the same defense. Against Cam they used some spy/zone concepts to keep him in the pocket and force throws. That won't be the case with Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay doesn't run the zone read either. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention Green Bay doesn't throw on 1st and 10 from the jumbo package to Brenton Bersin.

This is probably the only board where this doesn't sound funny.. but the Panthers as of this weekend were a more difficult matchup for the Seahawks than the Packers are.  Pass oriented teams do not fare well against this defense.  And then you throw in Rodgers having next to no mobility?  That's huge.  

 

I respect the hell out of Rodgers, but I think Green Bay is walking into a buzzsaw.  The only way I can see an upset take place is if Eddie Lacy runs wild and we turn the ball over. 

 

The Packers are also a significantly different team away from Lambeau.

Yea I just can't see Seattle losing to anyone that's left.  I think Carolina had the best shot at beating them.  Besides Seattle, Carolina had the best defense of all the playoff teams and Russell Wilson still gouged us going 8 for 8 on third down with 2 TDs.  Green Bay's defense won't be able to stop Wilson and neither can the Patriots or the Colts defense.  Factor in their opportunistic defense and they're going to coast to another Superbowl.  

 

My feelings on Seattle:

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
