How good is Cobb?

Hard to tell from the TV broadcast what type of separation our receivers are getting and what type of coverage they are seeing.

Lot of Cover 2 especially after they lost another CB. JSO said it was Cover 2 Man outside with LBs taking very deep drops.

Same story as its been for the last 2.5 years. When they need to take short chunk yardage for a multi-play drive they find a way to self destruct. That pass to Jordy on the last drive was a perfect example. He had a likely first down to Adams on the other side.

3rd and 2...guaranteed pass 20+ yards downfield. It is infuriating. Go get a damn RB that can catch a ball out of the backfield who is at least slightly faster than my grandmother.

I don't mind it normally. They have the talents (Nelson now, maybe Adams and Janis) to pull it off. But just like holding onto the ball, there are certain times its not advised. Fourth down is not the time for a contested shot at the end zone if someone else was open for a first.

Take what their giving you, don't get too locked onto one or two guys.

For Cover 2, it would help to have a pass catching TE to work the middle of the field.

Do the Packers in general have the talent at receiver they need? Over the last few years they have lost Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, James Jones and Jermichael Finley. They have been replaced by Randall Cobb, Jarrett Boykin, Davante Adams and Richard Rodgers. At the least, there may be some growing pains before we see the kind of offense we're used to.

They definitely don't have what they did. How fast they develop is an open question.
