Week 9 Monday Night Game, Packers vs Lions


Hoenheim

Recommended Posts

NFC North matchup tonight. Somewhat relevant for us since we play their whole division this season, we beat the Lions and lost to the Bears. and we're playing the Packers and Vikings later in the season.

Looks like the Vikings have a decent grip on 1st place in the division but otherwise, the other 3 teams are all a jumble and could all by vying for a wildcard.

What may fug us over if we lose a few more games is that all of our losses are against the NFC (Saints, Eagles, Bears) , and almost one team from each division in the conference too lol.  Dont have to worry about the NFC West though, as the only team of that division that we've played this year will have been the 49ers, which obviously was our first win of the season.  Our next 2 games are against the AFC but then our remaining 5 games are against NFC opponents. That final stretch of the season will be absolutely huge!  And the Packers are one of the teams we play in that stretch..

Damn I just realized that we haven't gone on more than a 2 game winning streak all season long. Hopefully we break that against the Dolphins next Monday Night.. 

We really should win the next two. Miami for sure. Jets could be a scrappy game, especially seeing what they just did to Buffalo and it's defense.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
