8 sacks in one half of a game that we beat them in. 3 in the other game. First was for no loss, 2nd was on your boy Sherry on 4th down, 3rd was on your boy Sherry which led to a fumble and a safety.Originally posted by Bretsky View Post

Not only that, but the Seattle line has not been a strength this year. It's probably the weakest part of the defense.Originally posted by 3irty1 View Post
And the Packers o-line has been pretty damn solid the last 9 games, surrendering only 10 sacks (and you could probably fault Rodgers for a decent number of those as well).Comment

A day before the big game musings:
I hate this matchup when I really really ... really want my team to win and go to the Super Bowl. We have this positive. Better that we suffer the dilemma that is the Seattle Seahawks than that we had no chance if Dallas had won in Green Bay.
Aaron Rodgers looks better (seems to be moving better) than he did Vs Dallas. He must be able to move around and out of the pocket to see his best game. This game will help to define our QB. This game will help define our Packer team. How close is the Green Bay Packers to the defending Super bowl Champion? In September the Packers were a long ways away from any real hope of defeating Seattle. That was a defining defeat for the Seahawks and the quality of it's supremecy over the Green Bay Packers.
This time they face a stronger Packer team. A seasons worth of experience and improvement. Then it gets to this puzzeling question. Why do the Packers play so poorly on the road? This is 'ugly worse' or a game in Seattle.
When member Bretsky is posting 'his solid reason' against the Packers. That's more than a little disturbing. This member is a solid Green Bay Packer fan. When push comes to shove he's not like many members here or 'a homer'. You can TRUST his football knowledge.
Ohh it's easy to post all and a Green Bay Packer win.
It goes way back in my youth. "Put your money where your mouth is." If you had a $100.00 to bet; would you lay it on the Green Bay Packers with the points? Would you place that $100.00 bet on the Packers straight up?
What's the impressive defensive stat for the Seattle defense? Giving up an average of about 8 points per game over the last 7 games. Yikes !
Like all of 2 chipmunks and one half of the other that pick Seattle and then add the baby. What chance do the Packers have? I believe we have a good chance. MM should have a good game plan. How will Dom Capers call the defense?Aaron Rodgers and the Packers are on a mission.
53% of bettors are going Packers and the 7.5 points. Is that a hunch bet for the most part? 53% doesn't help me with Packers and confidence in a 'W'.
Back to this:
How good can the Packers defense be? Therein lies the TRUTH. I believe the Packers offense can generate 20 points.
Can the Packers defense hold Seattle under 20?

If I see these things tomorrow, chances are we win:
- Crosby kicking off over the end zone every time.
- Wilson and company starting inside their own 10 yard line after a Packer punt.
- Lacy making one cut at the LOS and running over people 10 yards downfield.
- Our pass rush smothering Lynch for a loss or pressuring Wilson to throw early.
- Peppers and company with hands up batting down passes.
- Rodgers throwing the ball short to Lacy, Starks, Cobb, Adams, Richard Rodgers and Quarless in space.
- Cobb in the backfield.
- Rodgers engineering 7 and 8 minute drives.
- Jordy burning Sherman on a stop and go route for a TD.
If I see these things tomorrow, I slit my wrists:
- Crosby kicking off by looping the ball high and short, or directional kicking it out of bounds.
- Masthay shanking a punt.
- Stubby trying any field goal over 50 yards (unless it's in the last few minutes for a win).
- Stubby ordering an onside kick in the 1st quarter.
- Lacy dancing around at the LOS or running wide and trying to turn the corner.
- Wilson having all the time in the world to pass because Capers is rushing only 4 men.
- Our secondary playing zone.
- Rodgers taking a deep shot on 3rd and/or 4th and two.
- Rodgers lobbing the ball on a timing play to a WR in the corner of the end zone on 4th and one or on a two point try after a TD.
- Rodgers, surrounded by Seahags, trying to extend the play after being clean in the pocket for thirty seconds.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

I heard one analyst on Sirius XM NFL radio say forget running it through the tackles, Green Bay should run it between the guards.
Power can negate speed in a phone booth. Giving them a heavy dose of run would certainly help A-Rod and MM pick their spots for shot plays.

I don't mind rushing 4 against this team, the key is keeping Wilson in the pocket.Originally posted by Maxie the Taxi View Post
Their receivers are nothing special - where the Seahawks make plays are when Wilson escapes the pocket and either beats you with his feet, or it allows the ordinary receivers that extra time to get open.
I would not play a lot of man against them b/c I want everyones eyes facing the LOS as much as possible; and I would not crash the corners at all, like dunderdummy did in the opener. Play a lot of single high safety, bring the other safety up to help deal with the run, and play a lot of matchup zone underneath.
What are the odds dunderdummy does any of that?? He brewed up a mess against the Cowboys, but the Cowboys bailed him out with their own mistakes and playcalling... I don't expect the Seahawks will be bailing dunderdummy out.wistComment

I don't know the technicalities of it, but even in the pocket Wilson can find seems in a zone defense. Our secondary is really good in man coverage. Trust them and rush more than four. The key to me is our LB's. They have to quickly decide whether to rush the passer or pickup RB or TE dragging short across the middle.Originally posted by wist43 View Post
Capers has to get creative with his blitzes, especially up the middle and the outside rushers can't overplay and run past Wilson.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics.

Agree with Wist here. If you play man all day against Seattle, Wilson might run for 150. Have to have your eyes on him as much as possible.I can't run no more

We'll see. My feeling is that you can't cover anybody by constantly peeking into the backfield. If Wilson is running free to the extent where Tramon or Shields or Hayward have to make a saving tackle on him, we've got serious problems up front.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostOne time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics.
