Player Expectations for 2012

[Deputy Nutz]

I am starting this thread for each and everyone of you to predict the stats and play of individual players.

Clay Mathews OLB
I am predicting a comeback type season from Mathews. He is going to see an improved defense in front of him with added protection and a pass rush on the opposite side of him. The Packers might ask him to do more in coverage, although I believe that is an over blown opinion simply because Mathews is the Packers most proven pass rusher. The Packers front needs to do a better job at holding the point of attack, and cleaning up their blitz packages for Mathews to succeed. The bottom line is that Mathews is a great player, but all outside linebackers' stats are a product of what is happening in front of them.

16 game season
93 tackles, 11 sacks, 21 tackles for a loss, 3 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries, and 1 interception.

[smuggler]

DPOY worthy? Probably not in my opinion, but it's still a pretty darn good stat line.

[Smidgeon]

AJ Hawk 85 tackles 0 sacks 0 TFL 0 INTs 0 FF

Sounds about right. :D

[MadtownPacker]

Unknown RB not on the team yet - 1050 yards rushing, 420 yds receiving, 10 total tds, 2 fumbles.

Oh and one small run in with the cops.

[pbmax]

AJ Hawk 85 tackles 0 sacks 0 TFL 0 INTs 0 FF

C'mon! It'll be at least 115 tackles!

[pbmax]

Total tackles? Solo as well as helpers?

Matthews has been evolving as a pass defender as much as a pass rusher. He will be in coverage more this year.
60 total tackles, 10.5 sacks, 3 INTs, 14 PDs, 2 FF , 1 TD

Jermichael Finley, healthy and de-hypnotized about catching the ball
65 rec, 927 yds, 12 TDs (Driver is gone, Finley will run the Bubba Franks play at goal line to fall down, get up, be open by default, catch TD)

[woodbuck27]

AJ Hawk 85 tackles 0 sacks 0 TFL 0 INTs 0 FF

BIG Year !

[Cheesehead Craig]

Desmond Bishop 115 tackles, 7.5 sacks, 3 FF and 2 dropped INTs.

With the added pass rushers drafted onto the team and creating more havoc, Bishop comes in on his delayed blitzes and incredible closing speed to vulture in some bone crushing sacks, which he'll be flagged twice for b.s. personal fouls.

[pittstang5]

Jarrett Bush making one good play, followed by a ton of bonehead plays and always trailing behind his receiver.

[KYPack]

Bush will get 3 penalties on the same punt.

Glad to see you didn't retire after the draft.

Bush will make the Pro Bowl as Special-Teamer.

Jarrett Bush--stop sucking.

Fixed. :)

[woodbuck27]

Old moss remains ......grows greener.

THE GREEN BAY PACKERS !

[Pugger]

Bush might not be all that wonderful in the secondary but he IS a top ST gunner.

[Deputy Nutz]

Glad to see you didn't retire after the draft.

I thought better of it, see I realized how much you all needed me, and I am a giver, besides Skinbasket came back.

[Deputy Nutz]

Aaron Rodgers

I would enjoy it if he was crippled during the first preseason game, but I am not that kind of person. Unless defense is allowed to play defense again Rodgers is going to have a very similar year compared to last year. The Packers just have too many weapons and athletes on offense, and Rodgers runs the offense like he invented it.

68% completions, 4800 yards passing, 36 TDs, 7 picks, 160 yards rushing, 3 rushing TDs.

[Tony Oday]

AJ Hawk 115 Tackles, 5 sacks, 3 picks, 3 fumble recoveries, 2 TDs and 9.843 million servings of crow for his detractors.

Can you hook me up with your weed guy?

[RashanGary]

Newhouse rocks
Burnett plays FS and is good at it
Cobb has a big year as at WR, passing Jones (and Driver if he's here) as the #3 WR
Woodson plays SS in our nickle defense
Hayward beats out Peprah as our 5th DB in nickle by seasons end
Perry is a situational pass rusher. Zombo plays quite a few snaps.

[Tony Oday]

Can you hook me up with your weed guy?

Not that far off of what he did in 2010. I think he will have more sacks this year because the Olines will have more to think about. Hawk for breakout player of the year on Defense!

[mmmdk]

I'm looking for the next Anthony Dilweg!

[Tony Oday]

There will never be another Wizard! SHUT YOU MOUTH!!! :)

Oh one more prediction, one of the two WR on the PS will have 57 catches and 6 TDs.

Wasnt he the back up QB on Super Tecmo?

I'm drawing a blank here; just googled Super Tecmo. Looks super cool'n'corny!

[Tony Oday]

OML I loved Tecmo that was the best game EVER!!! EVER!!!!

[Brandon494]

He had 0.5 sacks 1 FR 0 TDs and 3 INTs in 2010, yea thats pretty far off.

[KYPack]

Ah, Finely will be cut from the squad as we resign Donald Lee.

how can Matthews come back after his best season as a pro?

[Fritz]

DJ Smith bustin' out on the D!

[Deputy Nutz]

So many of you are predicting AJ Hawk's statistics for 2012. If any player is going to see his stats and play dramatically improve this season it should be AJ Hawk. As long as Nick Perry is the real deal, and Worth and Daniels can offer more protection than Wynn and Wilson then Hawk should be able to improve his play from last season. Hawk does need to do a better job of tackling and reacting.

Hawk
105 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, 1 INT

GO PACK GO !

[Upnorth]

Count me in on Hawk improving. Really after last year it should be easy. I think TWill and Shields both take a big leap again this year. TWill will be completly healed and Shields will get rid of his sophmore slump. I don't think their ints will improve, but their ypa and pass breakups will improve.

[3irty1]

In 2010 the team had 47. This season there is more pass-rushing talent and will be facing many more offenses looking to pass. Major upgrades like Perry and Daniels will have a synergistic effect across the line and could be a real shot in the arm for sacks.

[woodbuck27]

I believe that Tony Oday is 'a Gal' not 'a Guy'.

[woodbuck27]

Ah, Finely will be cut from the squad as we resign Donald Lee.

How may I lay money down on that becoming reality?

[Tony Oday]

I believe that Tony Oday is 'a Gal' not 'a Guy'.

As per usual you are wrong but you are used to that.

Hawk will have a better year or he will be gone pretty simple. CMIII will have an amazing year but my guess is he starts off slow.

[Smidgeon]

I will agree with this in part: that the sacks will start off slow. I think he'll still be getting his pressures and knockdowns from day 1. He was actually better last year in those combined stats than he was the year before...the sack stats just didn't follow.

[swede]

LEWCA is the guy with the girly rose avatar. He posts like a guy.

Pugger is the girl that posts like a guy, and I mean that in a good way. She's all football.

I just think that offenses will scheme his way again until anyone else can show that they can preasure the QB. Then CMIII will start getting only double sometimes single blocked and he will then kick up his stats.

No shit! If Hawk's numbers don't improve it means the newly draft "replacements" at DL and OLB have failed and the D is in a lot of trouble again in 2012.

Thanks for the nice compliment. Is there anything in this post by you Tony Oday that might have led to my confusion?:

"100% true. I have a friend that was married to Ross Verba and when he met Ross Favre was there trying to "meet" another good friend of mine. " Tony Oday

I came to that conclusion because of the post (above) that you submitted...somehow!?? ... that post confused me as to your sexual orintation.

Prior to that post to which I refer **... I thought you were male.

I mean 'no insult'.

MAN !

[3irty1]

I mean 'no insult'.

MAN !

You have become the worst.

[woodbuck27]

You have become the worst.

Ohh ! Dear.

[Tony Oday]

Oh I get it you didn't know guys can have friends that are girls. No worries it happens all the time. No I am a male girls are my friends.

[woodbuck27]

Oh I get it you didn't know guys can have friends that are girls. No worries it happens all the time. No I am a male girls are my friends.

no I'm a GUY that has many friends that are female.

I recall reading that post a few times and saying to myself. Holy shit! All this time i imagined that tony Oday waqs a male. That post threw me for some reason.

In actualy referred to that fact today in a post to the favre 'the LEGEND' thread Tony.

I was confused man. Simple as that. There was nothing in your posting style, that ever hinted that you were anything but a male.

[Tony Oday]

Doesn't bother me what you think and or thought it is a message board so no worries.

However Favre is still a fraud and I hope AR wins the trophy, again, this year so Favre cries.

Do I get a vote here?

This is the internet, so you have to know that a girl that posts like that is, of course, an FBI agent. No, wait, if she was pretending to be a 16 year old girl, then she's be an FBI agent. All other women are hairy middle aged guys wearing a wife beaters. Or transvestites. Something tells me Iron Mike might have an opinion on this?

There are no women on the internet.
