Tonight, it’s all about that Green Bay run defense. Carolina’s commitment to the running game is impressive. This week, it should serve as a useful tool in a cold, windy, hostile environment. 

Here’s a look at the Packers against the run, and what Carolina should do to attack it.

This part of the game should be absolutely dominated by Carolina. There are no excuses.

Bottom line: Carolina’s defense is built for teams that pass the ball over 40 times in a game. They built it that way, in part, to counter the NFC South’s offensive firepower. Well, that didn’t exactly pan out in the division this year, but this is the type a game where Ron’s defensive structure and schematics could prove highly valuable. 
 

That’s why I’m putting so much emphasis on the running game. It will loosen up the entire offense, and will force these guys down into the box. When you are averaging 5.1 yards per carry, and your opponent is giving up almost that much per rush, you don’t screw around and get cute. Pound it, get an early lead, and play your brand of defense. The less I have to hear Kyle Allen’s name called on Sunday, probably the better. The conditions don’t seem conducive for a 35 pass type of game.

You'd think Green Bay is thoroughly aware their run defense is bad and they will do everything in their power to shut down McCaffrey and make Kyle Allen beat them. I hope Norv has drawn up some misdirection plays to fool the defense. I'm hoping for a big game from Olsen.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
