More Banjo: Week 14 @ Cleveland

[Guiness]

I've been defending Randall, but I don't think he should have made the comment referring to Gordon's past drug problems.

Agreed, but I'm not surprised he flipped him off considering the jock strap comment.

Its a cheap shot. Especially in light of Gordon's pretty well crafted response.

But he's a pretty emotional player, would rather have him riding high, so to speak.

[pbmax]

Of the three possible choices, it as the kick in the back of the player tripping over him.

@RapSheet
#Packers DB Davon House suffered a transverse process fracture in his back, source said. This season, players have come back in a week or 2.

Meh. I see your point but Gordon opened the door, he could have just not tweeted

I get what you're saying. I would just like to see Randall show a little more class than the most unreliable player on the worst franchise in recent NFL history.

Larry McCarren does a nice breakdown of Davis' punt return. http://www.packers.com/media-center/...0-dfa589bf656b

That puke Gordon had no business putting Randall down like that. Randall was very justified in putting the arrogant damn druggie in his place.

[pbmax]

Let's remember one thing, Randall started this with some public bragging.

“He had one catch,” Randall said, via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “Any more questions?”

[denverYooper]

I like my cornerbacks, like my quarterbacks, just a little bit cocky.

Absolutely. The one catch comment, which was an answer to a question, was fine. It would have been best in my opinion for Randall to keep his comments about what happened on the field. After all, he won the battle.

That post is horse manure.

Kizer had already broken the pocket once, that always causes the backfield to recalibrate.

He then tried to throw which is why those DBs in the GIF are breaking on the shorter routes. He couldn't get the pass off and had to retreat.

At this point one guy was open deep with no one around but it would be a huge throw to get it to him because Kizer is 15 yards behind the LOS and others are chasing him.

This backfield looks no different than Rodgers running his extended offense, except the QB is Kizer and not Rodgers.

pb, How come in the cluster at the top of the screen there are three Packer defenders on two Browns receivers? It seems like when Crowell breaks down the sideline no Packer goes with him.

Its not the teaching film you want for extended play coverage, but its pretty typical. Both Wilde and Huber are using it as evidence that the Defense might not even be able to be saved by Rodgers. Which is funny for Wilde who doesn't like to write X and O stuff because he knows he is out of his depth. That is not a slam, he has talked out it before. Its a tough beat to write because you are doing two jobs and you need to consult people outside the org to get answers.

The early portion of the video backs up to the earliest part of the clip (7 seconds in maybe). Three receivers up there, three DBs. Kizer has already half rolled out to his right/Defense left. That drew players up. Which put that RB even with the Packer outside DB.

He wanted to go to Gordon, but Randall was doing a veteran hold/blanket. But he could not setup to throw to another receiver as he had two Packers on him, so he retreats.

Packer CB forgets all about the RB at this point. Its not good coverage, but in an extended play with the QB running, DBs are trying to read the QB because the play has broken down and whatever patterns were being run are now being adjusted.

Kizer might have been trying to get to that side of the field, I did not get that sense from the TV angles but it looks like that is where his head was aiming at as he retreats. I don't think he is going down the middle deep as that coverage isn't terrible even if the WR has a step and a half. It would be a better than 40 yard throw while going backward.

The play was all Matthews and a nice jump ball catch from Jones. Prior to the QB retreat, it was some nice zone with good closing on their matchups. But the extended play coverage I bet is pretty typical not an indicator of the ruination of the Packer D.
