Capers on HHCD: He's had a lot more on his plate. You get used to playing with Morgan... HaHa has picked up his responsibilities

Getting healthy will help consistency for Kevin King. (Played so well vs. Atlanta but poorly yesterday.)

Capers: Played more man than zone because of all the screens. Ran three screens on us first series. We didn't play with good enough leverage

Michael CohenVerified account @Michael_Cohen13 17m17 minutes ago
Capers said the loss of Jake Ryan in the third quarter left them with just one linebacker — Blake Martinez — plus safety Josh Jones.

#Packers DC Dom Capers said the inability to get off the field on third and long was evident early in the game. Bit them later, too.

Michael CohenVerified account @Michael_Cohen13 11m11 minutes ago
Capers said the defense had far more missed tackles against Minnesota than New Orleans. But against NO there were leverage issues instead.

PACKER REPORT AGREES, HAD DOUBLE DIGIT MISSES VERSUS MN, 5 OR 6 VS NO

"Exactly" Zook says of it being right call against GB on the muffed punt yesterday vs. wrong call on Davis' muffed punt at Titans last year.

DEAR ROD, EXACTLY WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON ANYWAY?

more pad levels?

[mraynrand]

leverage does not equal pad level, but they both belong to the broad category of murky coach-speak excuse-making code language that most often means 'we cocked it up but we don't really want to explain it to you morons'

[pbmax]

Leverage is actually a concept very important in both run and pass defense. Like anything else, it can be used to obscure or hide things.

Pad level was used so often it was funny AND it seems very dependent on the height of the player. Its no coincidence that the best pad level in a decade belongs to 5' 9" Aaron Jones.

Regards time, place and amounts of padded practices, AKA live fire.

Don't know for sure, but seems to fit.

McCarthy on practicing this week: With CBA it's not possible to practice this week to help Hundley out. Can start next Tuesday.

THAT DOESN'T SOUND RIGHT, DON'T RECALL BYE WEEK RULES IN CBA, THOUGH IN SEASON IS LIMITED FOR PADS

On the broadcast of the late game last night, one of the announcers said that most teams don't practice (in pads?) on Fridays, but New England does. I think he said that works out to many, many hours of practice more for New England over the whole season. It's why they are so well prepared.

You know I was thinking that maybe the owners and players shot themselves in the foot by negotiating all these practice rules in the CBA. It's probably affecting the quality of product that's put on the field Sundays and might also have something to do with all the injuries. Ultimately, both wind up diminishing interest in the games and NFL attendance/profits suffer.

So this is the Maxie-pads argument?

Job #1 is keeping Rodgers upright.

Just have him lay off the Everclear.

LOL I guess that makes me a real douche bag! hahaha

Many teams have substituted Saturday for Friday. Total number of padded practices are the same for all teams. So its not a net gain. Supposed to allow for peak performance on Sunday.

That's it, mandated four days off, Thursday through Sunday.

Article 24
Section 2.
Bye Weeks: During any regular season bye week period occurring during the term of this Agreement, players will be given a minimum of four consecutive days off. Such four-day period must include a Saturday and a Sunday unless the Club is scheduled to play a game on the Thursday following the bye week, in which case players may be required to report to the Club on the Sunday preceding the Thursday game. In such an event, the four-day period shall be Wednesday through Saturday. Any injured player may be required to undergo medical or rehabilitation treatment during such four-day period provided that such treatment is deemed reasonably necessary by the Club’s medical staff.

#Packers 20+ runs...

Weeks 1-6: 1 run, 0 TDs
Week 7 vs NOR: 3 runs, 1 TD

You take Thursday through Sunday off, or you're effing out of football!!

So the announcer was wrong. It was probably Collingsworth.

Anyway, my point's still valid, isn't it? These millionaire players are featherbedding!
