Here are some INTELLIGENT conversations on todays game

[Gunakor]

Ok Rodgers takes no blame I guess for playing like crap for a few weeks now. He isn't playing well. I commend him for plyaing throuhg pain. But the rush is bad but not crazy. I still stand by it that he is making the pass rush look better than it is against us for weeks. He scrambles right into the rush sometimes instead of staying in the pocket. NOt only this game but for awhile now.

He's had 2 bad games in a row, against 2 of the better defenses in the NFL, both games being played on the road. Keep in mind he beat the Vikings at home earlier this season. Rodgers is fine. That is the least of this teams concerns right now.

One thing I've been frustrated with our lack of WOW guys on offense. Tennessee had Chris Johnson, Minnesota has AP...and that's just the past 2 weeks. We don't have "that guy" on offense. Jennings is probably our closest guy, but you gotta be able to get him the ball.

We traded our wow guy for a 4th round conditional pick. You don't trade 'Wow' guys!!

What else were they suppose to do with him? He didn't want to play here even after given the opportunity to do so. Please stop blaming the Packers for Brett wanting out.

maybe cuz he was treated like trash?... hes done more for us than TT/MM will do combined and treated like trash? I'd wanna play elsewhere too...

Goes both ways Paco, Favre is no saint.

ur right.. but ill give him the benefit of the doubt

Gunokar, Don't. Paco has been acting like a troll since the game ended.

#7 - I like Bishop...but wouldn't Chillar be a better choice as our #4 LB?

Chillar would be the next guy in if Hawk or Poppinga got hurt. Bishop is next in line in the middle. And Bishop is usually pretty solid, though he was more down than up today.

#10 - More on the use of our RB's & TE's. When do we throw to RB's? Answer: 3rd and long, dump off to Brandon Jackson...and that's it.

Grant does some things well, but he is not a receiver and therefore, not a complete back. The only passes to the RB's are on 3rd and long because that's the time Jackson is most likely to be on the field. It would really open up the offense if Jackson could get to be more reliable as an everydown runner.

I heard Chillar was inactive today because of injury.


He would have played for Barnett if he was available.

I didn't realize how much Hawk's groin injury is bothering him. Early in the fourth quarter he Peterson came at him in space and hawk turned to the outside and when Peterson cut back to the inside Hawk couldn't even swivel his hips back to the inside.

Say what you want about him, but he just isn't as explosive as he was the first three weeks of the season.

I wouldn't mind seeing Chillar move to the outside an see Hawk play the middle if Barnett is out for any serious length of time.

Hawk did look a bit slow. It seemed that the LBs bit hard on any moves the RBs made both in run support and pass coverage.

[Harlan Huckleby]

what I saw was a lack of gang tackling.

Peterson was able to cut back, or somehow make the primary tackler miss, and the rest of the Packers looked like they were just standing around, assuming the player or two closest to Peterson would make the tackle. They weren't hustling to fence-in Peterson.

A WOW RB knocks guys backward when he hits them.

Very true. Man I used to love the way AG finished runs -- he would definitely bring the pain.

ya he was a very good runner... but not great

Ahman Green isn't wow. He's a great back, but he won't be remembered like Barry Sanders, etc. Adrian Peterson will be.

[Partial]

What I don't understand, is that in the first couple of games, he'd run for the first down if nothing was available and he had the room. The last couple of weeks, he's done no north and south running. No sneaks either.

two words: game tapes.

Teams are finding him out. Thus, he had success against Dallas, Minne and Detroit.. He's been only OK at best them. Looking at the past 7 games, 4 of them were awful, awful games.

There is not a doubt in my mind that he is really banged up. It's night and day. He's not even close to the same player. I expected pro bowl from him. Hopefully he gets healthy soon!!

[MateoInMex]

I'm thinking Cliff needs to sit (you have no idea how I hate to say that).

You're right. Minny planned and executed well.

Collins and Woodson deserve defensive kudos for the picks--they force Woodson off his receiver and they still get the pick. Priceless.

Nah, there were a few times I expected them to air it out, but they didn't. Wonder how much Rodgers' shoulder is hurting.

Did Barnett ever come back in the game after he went out with that knee?

Rogers shoulder is the $64,000 question. According to Aikman, Rodgers said it still bothers him.

More like the 20 million dollar and some change question. Protecting an investment like that is crucial. Jesus Christ, if Ted Thompson refuses to find quality O-Linemen, can't someone override his fucking decisions?

LOL

Maybe TT should have spent a "dime" or two.

Exactly Sassy. What a cheap a$$, but I do like a lot of what Ted Thompson has done. But the good thing is next week, and I would expect Mike McCarthy and his coaches to shore this stuff up, especially against Chicago.

true, he's a jet and they're 6-3
