    The GOAT has pulled into the lead. But the real story is that half the team is on somebody's shit list.

    Actually, on offense the OL and RBs have been solid. Only pbmax finds a chink in the armor.

      You think the O Line has been "solid"? Sheeeeesh! How low are your expectations anyway?
      What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

        I'll give you RBs, but the OL has been hit and miss. They looked like dog shit against the Bears, but halfway decent against the Lions.

        Of the list, King's biggest disappointment is that he's been injured. The rest have under-preformed badly. If this team doesn't radically improve it will be time to blow everything up.

          Weren't they halfway decent against the Bears - decent in the second half only?

              As a sophisticated football analyst, I know that even a very good OL is going to lose some battles. A hack like yourself only remembers the mistakes.

              I think the O-line has mostly given good protection, and even opened up some running lanes. Ya, they had trouble against bears with Bulaga returning from injury. OVerall, I give them a B, maybe B+

              I have some hopes for the passing offense. They have some pass catching talent at WR, TE and RB. Things just aren't gelling yet. Right now, I say the receivers and Rodgers are the holdup. Maybe play calling is part of it - need more action to the backs.

                He's been more hurt than bad.

                  That in itself is reason for disappointment. Last week, though, King was supposedly healthy, and he was getting beat consistently - not to even mention a blunder or two along the way.

                    Does Mercedes Lewis still play for the Packers?

                      Depends on your definition of 'play'

                        Josh Jones - huge disappointment. Even Nick Collins, in year two, displayed some ability and, I think, was playing. Jonesy can barely get onto the field for special teams, much less as a safety. I'm afraid he's likely to be a bust.

                        And I think at this point it's safe to call Montravius Adams a total bust. TT did not do well drafting defensive linemen in the third round - Khyri Thornton, and now this.

                        Mike Daniels - huge disappointment.

                        Nick Perry - very "meh" for his contract.

                        Clay Matthews - over the hill, apparently.

                        HHCD - Making lots of mistakes for a vet; apparently turning down tackles now, too?

                        Jimmy Graham - woulda been better to pony up for Jared Cook a couple years ago.

                          Mt. Adams should be a beast. I wonder what his weight room looks like, because he was pretty low reps on the bench for a 300 lb. DT.

                          I agree on Jones too. I had this idea that he'd take over for Burnett or something.

                          J'xander is disappointing only because he contracted Packer Disease as well.

                            Toss up between Mike Daniels, Josh Jones, and Montravious Adams.

                            Clay is over the hill, so he's out. Rodgers has played hot and cold, but he carries the team.
                            Perry would be the winner but at this point I know what to expect from him (3 great games, 6 games playing hurt and ineffective, 7 games of invisibility) so it's more like playing to expectations vs. dashed hopes.

                            Daniels has played solid but that's about it. I thought Pettine would unleash him and Clark.
                            Josh Jones and Adams can't even get on the field, at positions where injuries and incompetence have hit. When UDFA's are playing ahead of you, and you're a Day 2 pick that's a disappointment.

                            With Jimmie Graham the biggest disappointment is they aren't calling his number in the red zone more. I'd think a 6-7 former b-ball player would be able to win a lot of jump balls (assuming he's not double covered).

                              i voted Rodgers but immediately regretted it. being hurt and rusty isn't his fault. so...i think it goes to Crosby who could have won the min game and was horrible in the det game. there's also an "other" i could have used on MM but the topic said "player."
