Doubs practiced yesterday. That's a pretty good sign. Watson probably needs a different strength and flexibility regiment.

Watson out. Doubs questionable.

I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
Little known fact about Christine Watson: Before she landed at North Dakota State, Watson was cut by the Wisconsin - Stevens Point D3 football program. Apparently, UWSP’s head football coach, Dick Bennett Jr., cut Watson for having a vag.
Whatever over/under Vegas has for the number of games Watson will play this year, sign me up for the under.
I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel.
Christina Glass Watson is under what Vegas picks.

Packers not elevating a WR from practice squad so they must be very confident Doubs will play.Aaron Wilson

#Packers elevate Innis Gaines, Patrick Taylor

Four backs against the Bears gives you a clue into their plans.
Wilson might not be active, and Taylor is up for special teams.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
Things to watch for today:
Love and his poise, command of the offense and ability to extend drives
WR - Doubs is not a deep threat - will one of the rooks step up?
DL - we’ve been terrible at run defense under lafleur and face a mostly ground attack today
ST - a whole new group of specialists - could win or lose it for us.
I don’t know enough about this team to make a prediction. But road division games are always hard. And our last two opening games were duds.
I didn’t get that memo

Going with my previous prediction, win, 20-17. Carlson either makes 2 FG or misses an XP.
Defense will have to hold up and get the final stop for the win.
Lambs vs. Seachickens out here on the left coast, so I will just catch the highlights.
Myers was better in pass pro than in the run game. I don't think the fumbled snap was on him, I think that was on Love. Andrew Billings gave him some trouble. Overall I'd say Myers was a mixed bag, you could do worse. They'll look to get him better competition next offseason. If he doesn't improve maybe they put Tom at C, but I think they'll keep Myers in the game. He's a R2 pick and you gotta play him until you can't.
Tom looks like a bonafide tackle. Honestly, so does Rasheed Walker. Walker makes it look easy. We have our two tackles of the future. You can’t waste either of them at center or guard.
Meyers is a decent pass protector and a bad run blocker. He’s serviceable for now. But you look to replace him through the draft ASAP

Bears Twitter is a really fun place the last three days. They really thought fields was it. And they’re still not admitting reality, but they’re starting to consider that maybe he’s not. They’re not in a good place. Check in on your Bears fan friends.

JT O’Sullivan has a qb school YouTube channel. He broke down Justin fields. He had all sorts of options down the field that O’Sullivan insists have to be thrown and fields keeps taking checkdowns.
Man, we’re lucky that our guy seems to get it. If this works out, we’ve got to be the luckiest fan base ever to get three in a row.

Yet the huge majority of the Packers run success the past couple of years has been through the Guard/Center hole. It wasn't like that before Myers came along, not even with Linsley who got almost as much praise as the Sacred Cow. There's a group of dumbasses in here who seem to be be in denial of that. RG, ya'all should open your eyes - and maybe believe what you see.

I saw a breakdown of the Packers offense by a football guy on Twitter (don’t remember who) but he said Lafleur on week 1 had the most diversity in run plays in the league. Said he ran everything. Maybe they decided with all 2nd year players or better that they would make the run game more complex rather than making the pass game complex. In that case, Meyer isn’t doing the same runs over and over that he’s used to and has to make different kinds of blocks that he’s not used to?

Or maybe he had hemorrhoids.
Or maybe he'd gotten into a fight with his girlfriend and was distracted.
Or maybe it's his rookie year and he's still on a steep learning curve.
Or maybe he's just not playing well. Period.

That's believable. In the past, I have disparaged a run first offense, and I really don't want the Packers to sell out completely that way even now. But that number and variety of run plays maybe was part of what made Love so effective. I said before the roster cut down I was hoping for a rotation of runners. As great as Aaron Jones is, he's probably not sturdy enough to carry too big a load. and A.J. Dillon just seems to fall down too easy as well as not being very shifty. Even if Jones can play, I'm hoping to see a lot of Patrick Taylor and Emanuel Wilson against the Falcons and going forward.
I'm thinking LaFleur was trying out a lot of things against the Bears, trying to see what in the playbook worked the best. Ultimately, I think he makes both the run game and passing game complex. That seems to be his thing.
Regarding Myers, you're probably right about different blocking schemes - him and the rest of them. Some of what the detractors perceived as weakness or not much push forward may have been pulling, as I saw him do several times. Whatever the "ya'all" crowd may think of Myers, I (and I think the Packers staff) aren't gonna move Tom to Center because he's doing too good a job at Tackle.
As I have said, continuity of personnel is a key to good O Line play.
