Trap game win. Not pretty, but wasn’t as bad as last week. Does that mean we are trending in the right direction?

True, last week they had to hit a last second FG to avoid losing. This week it was to win the game. Leaps and bounds. :lol:

[Bretsky]

any win is a good win in the NFL; Detroit seems to be peaking right now and there is a good chance they beat us next week.

We just need to be peaking at the end of season

[beveaux1]

Hard fought game that we found a way to win. Any road win is a good win. We limped out of the game with at least two injuries to starters - Love and Williams.
We might have more If Alexander had more than cramps and If Jacobs has an injury.

I trust that MLF will have a good game plan against the Lions, but that's a talented team we're playing next week without important starters.

[MadtownPacker]

Alexander was probably just his feeling hurt for blowing it on that last TD. Jacobs looked like cramping with the grimacing faces he was making but kept churning.

[George Cumby]

How bad is Love's injury?

[Teamcheez1]

Alexander was probably just his feeling hurt for blowing it on that last TD. Jacobs looked like cramping with the grimacing faces he was making but kept churning.

Three defenders around the WR and no one makes a play on the ball.

[beveaux1]

How bad is Love's injury?

Probably won't know until Tuesday.

[red]

when the hell did love hurt his groin? was it on the first drive when he started limping? at no point did it look like he did anything to pull a groin

[red]

How bad is Love's injury?

i think if it was minor he wouldn't have left the game

[Joemailman]

Wednesday. Usually learn nothing on Tuesday. Players day off, and MLF doesn't do PC.

when the hell did love hurt his groin? was it on the first drive when he started limping? at no point did it look like he did anything to pull a groin

He actually hurt his groin the week before when his fiancé asked him to do some freaky tantric shit.

[MadtownPacker]

He did a little jump when he was throwing on the run and came down awkward. Pretty much untouched.

so in the first quarter when we thought he tweaked his knee?

how the hell do you pull a groin doing that?

fritzy's theory makes way more sense

[MadScientist]

Could be a sports hernia frorm the jiggly motion when he landed. Or just a smoke screen, and he did tweak his knee.

Right after he was rubbing his inner upper thigh area so I don’t think it was the knee. He kept walking with his leg straight also like it was a peg.

the last time he hurst it when he went down on the field, he was walking like he just dropped a load in his pants.

so i would guess he did hurt his groin.

i'm just worried that he also tweaked his knee. or did he hurt his groin early, kept playing, and made it worse

that injury he had in the first quarter, i don't know how you hurt your groin doing that, and it sure looked like he was limping like it was his knee.

when you hurt your groin, you look something like this


https://youtu.be/P1F5D4oIAMc?si=hw7WRjuMfxdGqpdQ

which is what love looked more like when he came out in the third

[call_me_ishmael]

When are the Cowboys going to realize that Dak isn't the guy? My goodness. He's just not him.

[MadtownPacker]

This thread is about the Packers game you puto.

[Teamcheez1]

Jaire also scheduled to get an MRI on his knee.

[MadtownPacker]

Pepe’s arrogant ass didn’t want to mess up his hair with a hat and got all sunburned in theFlorida sunshine. :lol:

Hafley doesn’t seem to like the loaded questions about Saleh. He did say they are good friends but seems annoyed and I think rightfully so. This might be one of those times Tex is right, they are being media pukes with him.

Top 5 offense

1. TE Tucker Kraft: 82.5
2. QB Malik Willis: 78.6
3. RB Josh Jacobs: 76.1
4. QB Jordan Love: 74.6
5. OL Jordan Morgan: 71.7

Kraft caught all three of his targets for 78 yards, including a 67-yarder setting up a score and a 3-yard touchdown. He was also solid as a run blocker. Willis had an adjusted completion percentage of 100.0, and he produced both a 20-yard scramble and a 51-yard completion. Jacobs created 98 yards after first contact, forced eight missed tackles and produced two runs over 10 yards. Love hit three completions over 20 yards downfield but did throw a red-zone interception. Morgan was the team’s highest graded pass-blocker after not allowing a pressure over 12 pass-blocking snaps.

Top 5 defense

1. LB Eric Wilson: 81.1
2. LB Edgerrin Cooper: 74.3
3. CB Jaire Alexander: 72.1
4. DE Preston Smith: 70.4
5. DL Karl Brooks: 67.9

Wilson delivered five tackles, six assisted tackles and two stops while not giving up a single catch in coverage over 57 total snaps. Cooper missed two tackles but also delivered a game-changing strip-sack, three total stops and a pass breakup. Alexander broke up a pass and allowed just one catch for two yards into his coverage. Smith had a quarterback hit and earned a solid run defense grade. Brooks had two hurries, including one forcing an incompletion on third down, and a run stop.

Bottom 5 offense

1. C Josh Myers: 44.0
2. TE Ben Sims: 45.5
3. LT Rasheed Walker: 52.6
4. LG Elgton Jenkins: 53.9
5. WR Jayden Reed: 54.3

Myers allowed a pressure and earned the team’s worst run-blocking grade (38.1) by a significant margin. Sims was poor as a run-blocker over 14 run-blocking snaps. Walker allowed a hurry and committed a holding penalty. Jenkins gave up a team-high two pressures. Reed had a drop on third down, ending a drive.

Bottom 5 defense

1. DL TJ Slaton: 37.3
2. DB Javon Bullard: 44.5
3. CB Keisean Nixon: 46.0
4. CB Eric Stokes: 46.7
5. DL Devonte Wyatt: 55.2

Slaton missed a tackle and struggling against the run across 16 snaps. Bullard missed two tackles and gave up four catches for 63 yards and a touchdown in coverage. Nixon gave up a touchdown catch and missed two tackles. Stokes allowed two catches for 43 yards on just 16 coverage snaps. Wyatt rushed the passer 15 times but produced just one hurry.

Special teams

Zayne Anderson had a tackle and the team’s highest special teams grade. Javon Bullard, Edgerrin Cooper and Bo Melton also made tackles covering kickoffs or punts. Arron Mosby was charged with the lone missed tackle. Brandon McManus made all six kicks, including three field goals under 40 yards. Daniel Whelan had a net average of 44.8 yards.

Quarterback play

Malik Wills: 78.6
Jordan Love: 74.6

Willis completed 4-of-5 passes for 56 yards and a touchdown, and he scrambled twice under pressure, including one run for 20 yards. His lone incompletion was a dropped pass, so his adjusted completion percentage was 100.0. Love, who played through a groin injury for roughly two quarters, had one big time throw and one interception. He completed 3-of-5 passes thrown over 20 yards in the air and was 5-for-5 for 56 yards off play-action. Eight of Love’s 14 completions produced first downs.

Stat to know

The Packers defense missed 15 tackles, a season high. Five different defenders missed two or more tackles. Tackling Tank Bigsby — who forced seven misses — was a challenge. The Jaguars actually forced nine missed tackles after the catch in the passing game.

[Joemailman]

Packers need more of this - guys taking leadership roles.

Tucker Kraft: "We need to start taking accountability for what’s going on with our offense early in the half. That’s just not us ... we’ve got to start holding each other more accountable. I haven’t looked at the film yet, but there’s errors by everybody on the field."

[sharpe1027]

Not too often you have two QBs in your top 5 rated players.

[run pMc]

Just want to put this out there:

On Kraft's long reception, the YAC was gained thanks to a broken tackle attempt by Darnell Savage. (Go back and watch)

Defenders that don't miss tackles are valuable.

Only if they get themselves into position to make the tackle frequently. I'll take a guy that disrupts plays and misses a few more tackles over one that doesn't make plays but misses less tackles.

[bobblehead]

I want to go back and quote Tex defending Myers, but I'm too lazy and everyone knows he is just digging in on a losing position.

A player who is too slow or gets out of position to make the play on a regular basis is easy to spot and get rid of at the earliest opportunity without a second thought. A player who is right there but fails to make the tackle is more frustrating, because you think he's going to learn that last bit and be a good to great player. So, you hang on to that guy longer, but many times he never gets that last bit, and you are left with a guy who misses plays for a longer time.

We're saying the same thing. They keep the best players they can. Frustrating as it is to watch missed tackles as a fan, those players are still deemed better than the alternative. Whether or not those alternatives are more sure tacklers.

He's nothing if not consistent.

I didn't notice that, but is anyone really shocked that Savage blew a tackle that changed an outcome? Savage also was about 4 yards behind in a coverage I noticed early in the game on a big play.

Well, a 20% accuracy rating earns one some credibility around here.

Rats, I went to this game. I don't know if I will take a family of four ever again to an NFL game. Not just because of the cost. I just can't sit there and watch every TV time out for every possession, turnover, 2 minute warning. All they do is sit there on the line waiting for the TV timeout to end. There is so little action in an NFL game anymore. It's not football, it's a marketing production. I use to watch the NFL Direct ticket on DirectTV and after games were finished, they'd cut it all together of every play, score, punt. It was 28 minutes of action for a 3 hour production I haven't been to a college game in a while, I'm sure it's the same way. At least in baseball it's more seamless with innings being the commercials breaks but the live game seems to flow. Maybe I'm just older and don't want to put up with the $hit anymore.

[bobblehead]

Agree Gordo, baseball is meant to be watched live and football is meant to be watched drunk in my living room.

I haven’t been to a game since 2019. Have had the opposite experience at games. I don’t even notice the commercial breaks. Has something changed since that time? I haven’t noticed when teams run the ball a lot and burned the clock out seems like they’re in more breaks at the end of games.

I like to attend high school games on Friday nights here. (no, I'm not Cliff Christl incognito), and if you go from a high school game Friday to an NFL game Sunday its really noticeable.

College games seem a lot worse than NFL games. Not sure why but it does and college games take about 20 minutes longer than NFL games.

Are these broadcasted games?

At high school games I’ve been to the only thing that seems to take forever is the snack bar.

[bobblehead]

You may have misread. I meant going from HS to pros makes the commercial breaks noticeable. So no, not broadcast HS games.

I thought it was in this thread, but I couldn't find it where I praised Favre's current mental state. This was deemed as breaking the rules, to the extent that it was, I apologize to Madtown for that.

[MadtownPacker]

I thought it was in this thread, but I couldn't find it where I praised Favre's current mental state. This was deemed as breaking the rules, to the extent that it was, I apologize to Madtown for that.Wow, you don’t get it do you?

You wrote in FYI - “As for Favre, I alluded to that in the football part of the forum, but of course, I couldn't come right out and say it there, just that he was exhibiting mental sharpness these days.”.

So you think you can just skirt around the rules by implying political stuff in the Packers area???? Maybe you just think Im too stupid to notice but I have and you have done it far too long. You have not fulfilled the request in FYI so it looks like it is adios.

I think we should have the forum vote on it. Give you the politics you so badly crave that you can be like EVERY other poster who has no problem not being political and dragging that here.

[texaspackerbacker]

I thought this was complying with the demand. i HEREBY APOLOGIZE. Is that good enough? If I went into detail here about why that previous post was against the rules, I figured that would be a worse breaking of the rules.

[MadtownPacker]

Oh now you care? We are just going to have everyone vote on it. Poll pending. You may want to start campaigning for yourself. You got a lot of cleaning up to do with the voting posters.
