Thread: No more excuses for Aaron.

    If everyone keeps saying Cleveland Browns, its going to happen.

    You really want Mark Murphy hiring a GM? Mr. Ribbon Cutter?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Yup. We should have picked up a free agent to help us out. A couple are available. At the very least we should have activated Don Jackson. I think one reason Monty fumbled is he's not used to the contact RB's attract on a regular basis.
    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.

    Browns are 0-6. Packers have lost to 2 teams that are a combined 10-1.

    Nice perspective joe. This could be a good thing. AR is playing like shit. He can't make excuses any more. This could be the low he needs to reapply himself to doing the simple things well!

    i'm not talking about today. i'm talking for the season. lacy was hurt today so he gets a pass. the Packers o passing system has been figured out. it's components have been nullified by defensive technique, injury, and ineptitude. i called for us to draft a wr but no. the system needs scrapped in the off season. i think a regime change is probably in the offing too.

    I wanted to draft a big, fast WR as well. The interesting thing is we did. The frustrating part is that Davis is seldom utilized and he's the fastest guy on the offense, with maybe the exception of Janis.

    Be grateful for the one title we have. That is all we will achieve with this regime.

    So nothing else that smacked him in the face like a 2x4 in the preceding 12 months was enough to convince him to "reapply" himself?

    Sorry, Rodgers has become the diva that Favre was from 1998 until McCarthy showed up and hadn't gone fully pussy yet. This loss won't change a thing.
    It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

    In 2015, Hundley played better as the preseason progressed. Overall he was 45-65 for 630 yards with 7 TD's and 1 INT. Passer rating of 129.6. Better than Callahan IMO. He didn't play enough this year to render a judgment.

    It seems pretty clear that things are broken at a deeper level than that. This isn't just the result of hardheadedness at QB, it's a combination of factors that arise when you are running a scheme that has been around for a while and can no longer adapt or generate new looks that force defenses to do things they don't want to do. The opposing defense is dictating the terms now, and if the Packers had an easy fix for that they would have implemented it by now. Their best bet was that the defensive improvement would offset the limitations of this offense. Judging from yesterday, that doesn't seem to be the case.

    I read that the WR's all run individual routes instead of going into bunch formations, running rub routes/legal pick routes and the likes that many other NFL O's run these days.

    This is true, but he has been incorporating new plays into the last few games. When Lacy got hurt versus the Giants, the no huddle returned full force with Starks after that and back came the ISO routes.

    There was more variety again versus the Cowboys, I think that was directly related to his improved completion percentage. A lot of that was Monty and Cobb.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    It's alarming to me that he can get 5-6 seconds which is an ETERNITY in the NFL to throw and he cant find an open guy. Either he isnt seeing the field well or the guys just aren't getting open. Most QB's would destroy defenses with that much time to throw.
