Packers game predictions

Again, we are playing a real football team like the Pats and Bills. I have a feeling this will be over by halftime. Bryce or no Bryce 

I like our chance to at least look respectable with Bryce, but we will still be overmatched. They have better X’s and O’s and the Jimmies and Joes.

Sadly I was right about the blowout loss to the Bills but it was worse than I expected especially on defense. 
 

Packers opened as 11.5 favorites and it’s hard not to expect them to cover. I think the defense will play better but will still get demolished by Jordan Love who is playing at a high level after that performance against the Steelers. This is the type of game we have to actually play keep-away by running the ball but not sure if our offensive line with injuries can do that or keep Bryce from getting pressured to consistently move the football on third downs.  
 

I expect us to keep it close in the first half but Packers pull away in the second and easily cover.  

The Bills got back a few players, were coming off a bye and had things to fix on offense which they clearly did, religiously, for at least a week. 
 

I don’t think the same thing is repeated and I think this ends up being a 3 point game, one way or the other. The Packers aren’t coming off of a Bye, they don’t have to “fix” their run game so the offense we will see will be what they’ve been running all season. 
 

I’ve watched most Bills games and much of the success they had running were on blocking schemes they haven’t used all year long. 
 

Panthers - 27 Packers - 24

I hope you are right, it just looks like they are better than both bills and pats, but this is what I wanted to see, how Bryce does playing against real competition. I hope he proves me wrong

Really? I thought that toss play was the staple of Joe Brady's offense? Or at least it sure as hell was for us

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
