Why does Richard Rodgers play so much?

[Harlan Huckleby]

On Homer's show, they refer to Drod as "a poor man's Bubba Franks." That's about right.

[red]

I. Couldn't agree more. I have no clue why they use dickrod so much, he's horrible

You can't tell me he's better the Abby or janis

[hoosier]

The answer is clear: this one comes from on high. We know how TT feels about his draft picks, and this one was a reach to boot.

I want to know what happened to the crazy, creative game planning against New England last year?

And if you're no-huddling but not hurrying up, I don't understand the point since you lock yourself into staid personnel groupings.

Maybe the team needs to huddle up to get some cohesion back and to allow for personnel changes. Right now, without a huddle, none of them seem to be on the same page.

I had hopes for Richard Rodgers, but he is slower than my dead pet turtle, and he doesn't block furschitzen.

It hurt me to read that Quarless is their fastest tight end.

The other odd this about the limited route concepts is the problem with the play clock. If you are only calling 20 pass plays, how can a play call and then 2 audibles take so long?

Its always a cat and mouse game, but I think, given the limitations of talent (or its effectiveness), the Packers are on the losing end of the adjustment/audible game. Many times in the last few games we have seen a D back out of a blitz after an audible, then be immediately ready for whatever hot route the Packers are running.

They really need Monty back and healthy. Same with Adams getting back up to speed.

[George Cumby]

It seems that it's a necessity thing. Nelson gone for the season, Adams and Monty dinged up, Lacey a fat, injured pig. I think their hands are tied so they are playing what they got......

They may be trying to eat clock to shorten the game knowing that they can't compete with the best teams right now.

I can't see anybody on offense believing that, admitting it and then adjusting to it this fast. If everyone was injured preseason like Jordy, then maybe.

I just think they are stuck with audibles versus pressure that have been identified (in no huddle) and by continuously making adjustments throughout the play clock, they are ceding the last adjustment to the defense.

Maybe not as extreme as what I wrote, but it wasn't long ago that MM would talk about trying to X number of snaps at a minimum. I do not think that is as high of a priority right now.

This is why I love Packerrats so much. A guy who, in his first two seasons, seemed on course to be possibly one of the best Packer running backs ever, is, after eight games this year, a fat, injured, pig.

We brook no nonsense around here. I love it.

We are equal opportunity. Once he rips off a couple 100 yard games, the label will be changed accordingly.

[George Cumby]

I like Lacey. However, my impression is he lacks a certain fire, a spark, passion for the game, if you will.

I have little to base this on, his gestalt just makes me uneasy.

[Rutnstrut]

IMO a better question would be. Why do the all knowing stubby and TT think the guy is a worthy starting TE?

An even better question is: how does the all knowing Rutnstrut know that they think that?

That's pretty fucking simple, he's on the roster as the starting TE.
