Always enjoyed Kirwan's analysis

Yeah, he's one of my favorite NFL media guys because he loves to go straight to the X's and O's and all his opinions of teams are derived strictly from that. He may be wrong on some things, but he always bases it upon what he sees on the field.

Rodgers is the only QB in the league that could have avoided that amount of quality pressure we sent at him. Bodes well for us going forward 

It's seriously crazy how good his movement is in the pocket. He's a magician. Nothing but respect for him after his performance Sunday nad the amount of times he avoided the rush to make big plays during their 4th quarter comeback.

You don't want him to be comfortable in the pocket, but his best pass completions against us were when he was on the run. I'm glad we only play the Packers once in a while.

That's a great breakdown... Allen lost contain, but Star stepped to the outside and cut Rodgers off.

Lacy held Luke, but of course that wasn't called...  the coverage there was what really set up the sack.  Rodgers was a little frantic, but if someone had popped open, he may have hit them.

 

This week Mariota is probably a little more mobile than Rodgers so we really got to keep contain on him.

Rodgers footwork in the pocket to avoid our rushers was an absolute thing of beauty.  He is the only player on Cams level in regard to that....dude is just maddening to try and get to the ground.  I know it must piss off his opponents.  If it were anyone but Rodgers at QB for them on Sunday we would have had like 10 sacks....

    • The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman. 
    • And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!
    • If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
