More Banjo: Week 4 vs. New Orleans

[Cheesehead Craig]

Monty was over 5 yards a carry last year. There is a reason you never would have known about Jones if Monty doesn't take a shot in the ribs.

Jones is a more natural back, especially running between the tackles. But the idea that Monty is now worthless is an over-reaction.

Job #1 is keeping Rodgers upright. Jones needed work.

Jones did a great job blocking yesterday from what I saw.

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

Dammit, hate when facts get in the way of an interesting and intelligent conversation.

He knocked his guy down once even while falling himself.

He's willing and that is half the battle.

Over on Footballs Future there is a great thread in the Packers' subforum of a poster breaking down Hundley's plays in Sunday's game. There were some nice plays called by Stubby that Hundley missed on.

Saw this quote from MM yesterday:

McCarthy added: "You know, Madden Football screwed this whole thing up. It was a much better gig before. Everybody knows football so well now.

We know where the game plan and halftime adjustments come from now.

sounds like sarcasm to me! Stubby gettin' testy. I'm betting that Golden Corral buffet didn't go down so well Sunday night...

Nice clips they have.

I forgot that Nelson went in motion on that Cobb/Jones Read Option and that Adams 8 yard catch on 3rd and 18 was a crossing route.

There is always hope.

You're linking to another forum??? You're in trouble now. Mad's gonna ban you....

I listened to the game on Sunday, just watched the end of it this morning. As inconsistent as Hundley and the offense were, they still lead 17-16 with 14:46 to go in the game. Following a kickoff, NO had the ball at their own 14. The game was there to be won.

The defense did nothing to win the game.
The offense did nothing to win the game.
STs negated a decent kickoff return with a penalty to put the offense at their own 10 yard line, and had a penalty on a punt.

Embarassing 4th quarter for the entire team.

I don't understand what happened with the solid players on 'O'? Where was the play calling and these guys?

Why weren't there more plays to WR's Jordy Nelson, Devanta Adams, Randall Cobb and even Martellus Bennett?

Where are the 10-20 yards crossing routes and shallow Hook Patterns? What happened to the Screen Pass?

It's pretty obvious now that Aaron Jones is the REAL RB and that he has good hands and can even attempt and complete Blocks. Clearly Aaron Jones is our NO. 1 RB. Still MM has to somehow use TY Montgomery in passing plays when the opposing teams Safety is drawn to the LOS and get the ball to him over the top of the LBers.

Why not use an Offensive set splitting Aaron Jones and Ty Montgomery to draw the opposing teams 'D' to the outside and then use Aaron Ripkowski to run through the middle?

Where's Mike McCarthy's imagination and any real hope of winning a football game?

I get the part and Brett Hundley and Conservative to protect the ball (Picks).I get not showing us much of an arm and the deep pass. All the same Brett Hundley has to pass for more than 150 yards in the NFL to have any decent chance of winning and < 100 Yards = ridiculous play calling.

because he will fumble.

To be honest, I am more frustrated with the D and STs. The O lost it's leader, yet they put together an effective running game. At times Hundley did some good things. I didn't expect much more. They had a lead to start the 4th quarter, and NO was at their own 14. A stop by the D could have given GB some control. it took them 60 yards to make the "stop", holding the saints to a FG. The possession was only 8 plays, yet Matthews and Perry apparently had to be rested for a couple of the big ones. If these guys are worth their salaries, where were they?

I hear ya. But I did see Khalil Mack on the sideline for a critical play the other night too.

75 plays on Defense versus 50 on offense and missing Brooks has costs.
