Pack have won two road games in a row. need to keep that going. the o has really righted it'self from earlier in the season. the d has improved a lot two. the turnover ratio has got to be off the charts. i think the Pack win this by at least 10.

I just hope the Packers make some adjustments with their silent snap count so we don't see a repeat of the Miami game where the Dolphins seemed able to anticipate the snap.

Agree.
Was this happening in the Lions game too? Maybe it was just more obvious in Miami.

The Saints are a lot better than their record, the 2nd ranked offense in football technically. Its a good matchup for us though IMO and it looks like NO is going to have a pretty long injury report too.

I was more worried about the Miami game than I am this one. They really have no talent on defense and running game really isn't a threat.
Get some pressure on Brees and it's no problem.

The New Orleans Saints haven't lost at home, under Sean Payton, since January 2, 2011.

I think their record on Sunday night is even more impressive.

4 games this week have over-unders of 50+. (That's a lot):
GB @ NO 54.5
SD @ DEN 51.5
CHI @ NE 50
WAS @ DAL 50
Surprised PHI @ ARZ only 48

Tom Crabtree was resigned by the Aints yesterday.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Wow I didn't realize they had released him. Not going to lie, I would have appreciated stealing him back. He's definitely a Jag in most aspects of his game but he's worlds better than anything we've got as a blocker.

Apropos of that, Rodgers is getting mega coverage about his blocking being the reason he saw more snaps Sunday.

#Packers Notes: Richard Rodgers' blocking gets him on the field ... http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packe...279864752.html …

Also, #Packers TE Richard Rodgers makes strides in his blocking, Mulumba update and 2013 7th-rounders get their shot http://pck.rs/1tH2m8s
This despite his error (McGinn dinged his for partial responsibility) getting Rodgers sacked and two bad run blocks. Actually Bob said the most promising block throw by a TE was by Bostick in limited action.

Man, I feel like I could cut up a couple minutes worth of evidence saying just the opposite from the Miami game. He wasn't the only one who was horrendous but he probably was the worst runblocker on the field.

I mentioned in another post, it doesn't seem to be inline blocking he excels at, it's the open field stuff, springing WR's for big gains.

But go back and watch that play where Starks picked up the 3rd and 10 on the last drive. Rodgers wiped out the DE...turned up-field and shielded off a LB from Starks when he first caught the ball...then got in the way of another LB or DB to give Starks a chance to pick up the 10 yards. Without Rodgers, that play doesn't get the 1st down.
TE is a far different position in the NFL than it is in college. Rodgers has the smarts to be an effective blocker...but it will take some time for him to get there. To me, he's looking better each week...but he's still below average at this point.
It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
We are jinxed down there.
Gris gris for all players.
Pierre Thomas has been ruled out.

Pierre Thomas out is a big plus for us.
Bostick didn't help himself Sunday with a dropped pass.

If you go to Twitter, Ty Dunne from JSO has some cutups on Vine of good Rodgers and bad Rodgers blocking in the Panthers game. Let's just say if he is better than Q, its a race to mediocre. But he seems very willing and likely will get much better.
He gets Kuechly in one of them.

Thing is, the good blocks are very good blocks. The kid barely has his feet wet as a pro, and he has some very good blocks on tape. That puts him light years ahead of Finley, Quarless and every other TE the Packers have had as rookies recently. He appears to have made huge strides from what he looked like most of the preseason. Inconsistency is to be expected from a rookie at any position, especially in blocking by a TE who apparently did little blocking in college.
