3 running plays in the 2nd half

[PackerTimer]

theres been some of us screaming for a good o-line for years. the problem seems obvious

but we just keep trying the same rejects over and over again, and hope that they wake up one day and have a clue

I can say this. Rodgers at times holds the ball a bit long, and when he isn't, he is getting hit in 3 seconds or less. One week Babre is a turnstile, the next week cliffy goes down and its college. You gotta run the ball though and let college abuse that guy a bit so he is at least honest on pass plays.

I agree. The running game is where you tire the D-Line out. Grant actually had some good runs in the first quarter and then they completely abandoned.

You can't take advantage of a week secondary if you can't protect your quarterback. The D-Line knew all they had to do was rush the QB, they weren't even worried about the run.

here is the play by play. I have to say, this is a lot on MM. when Cliffy goes down our run game should actually get BETTER, but instead of deciding to run and rest the D and keep the Bengals D off balance we pass every single play except for 3 in the second half. WTF!!!

Its hard enough to pass block in the NFL, but we don't run any screens, we don't run the ball, just straight drop and pass....the bengals DLine was teeing off.

I'm extremely disappointed. This team might not have the talent we thought, but if you don't mix up the play calling you won't find out for sure either. I am starting to get on board with posters that say TT hasn't fixed the OL, but we aren't giving the guys a fair fight either.

Maybe we can give college a chance this week and run a screen or a draw his way at least once huh??
