Last year I think the reason we dominated so much was cause you guys had such a physical tough game with the Bengals the week before that ended in a tie. I think you were flat from that. I honestly love beating up on Dallas, Seattle, New York and everyone from our division that way. Carolina is a classy team but still want to win as much as you guys do.

Ugh.  I'd forgotten our game against the Packers last year came after our OT tie with Cincinnati.  And now you guys get us again following a really grueling OT game.  Sigh.

I'm definitely concerned that our guys are somewhat beat up.  If we can pull out the win... this is the stuff champions are made of.  Surely this is going to be TOUGH.   I'm not ready to call it either way yet.  I won't be ashamed if we lose, but wow, if we win....  words fail.

This is one of the two games I predicted we lose. I think we get humbled a bit. Our offense learns that not taking advantage of opportunities will bite us. I just don't feel as good about this game as I would like. Certainly possible we win, if we can execute at all three phases of the game and minimize their big plays. If we get to the QB and control field position, I like our chances. Short of that, we could be in for a frustrating day.

Take away Aaron Rodgers and the Packers are an extremely average team. Good thing we have lockdown corners. Have to get pressure from the line though

JNo needs to get better fast. I'm not really that concerned about our subs along the o line. I'm sure the staff was game planning for this starting early tuesday morning.

We really need Norwell and Kalil back. Having one would be better than none. But these 3-4 defenses put a ton of stress on the offensive line's ability to pick up blitzes and stuns. Amini Silatolu was benched because he couldn't figure out the blitz and work in tandem with the line.

I think that was Chris Scott that was benched, Silatolu played most of the snaps last week

I just don't think with the amount of injuries to key starters we have that we'll be able to pull this one out.  Our offensive line is banged up.  Our Defensive line is banged up also.  We are getting thin in the trenches and its going to effect our ability to sustain drives on o and get the defense off the field.  I hope we can hang with them but it could get ugly.

Said it yesterday, being able to have long drives, with lots of 1st downs is going to be very important to winning this one. 

I don't like playing teams that can score in bunches, and the Pack can certainly do that.  We are just a very methodical team, and a few big plays allowed by our D, and we can get in a bad spot quickly.

The Packers are going to have to pick their poison and either way it won't be pretty. Eagles keyed in on Kuechly & Norman, determined to take them out of the game. Up steps Short & Davis Sr. Colts key on Short & Davis & Norman, up steps Kuechly & Coleman & Harper. Fourth quarter & they give up their keys (we were "gassed" by that point lol) & finally max protect (asshats in the booth forgot to mention that). Which had Norman & Coleman making plays because our secondary wasn't gassed, leading to Harper's tip & Kuechly's INT.

So which will it be this Sunday? What poison will the Packers pick?

We likely could only be missing Remmers and a rotational DT.  That isn't that banged up be week 8 standards.  Yeah, some guys likely could be playing through some things but that is life in the NFL.  Heck, I'm sure despite the look of things Stewart, Cam, Davis, and a bunch of dudes have been playing though some injuries to date. 

I don't think injuries will be justification if we lose.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
