More Banjo: Week 11 @ San Fran

[pbmax]

Defense was put in bad situations in the first half but resisted and kept it close. Dr. Z was a monster.

Got a stop to open the 3rd period. Offense gave them nothing. Defense then yields big plays and game is over.

Bulaga hurt. Pass offense is a mess. Run offense doesn't work well with Williams and he doesn't make up for it in the pass game. No big plays. Jones needs to play more but someone is insisting he doesn't. Took him out of best drive of night to put Williams in while in SF territory.

Lets never play in California again.

Whatever Matt Nagy would do to get over playing badly in Cali, do the opposite.

Off topic, but they had an 18 year old state police officer giving tips about how to be safe on holiday travels this year on the local news.

He doesn't even shave yet, but tell me all about safe driving young man.

[pbmax]

This team has resisted being figured out.

But I think these last 2 California losses make the point that the defense can be tough but be had.

And the offense is eminently stoppable.

Feels like a 10-6 team regardless of what the record will end up being.

This is a good bounce back season. Probably shouldn't expect it to be more than that.

[Joemailman]

Flower not happy. Not freaking out, but not mincing words either. Short PC.

[call_me_ishmael]

Reminds me of the 2015 Broncos game that broke the Packers. Can they recover?

This is a good bounce back season. Probably shouldn't expect it to be more than that.

Keeping it positive; yes.

[woodbuck27]

Realistically this 2019 Packer Roster has weakness all over.

We should be most concerned with:

The OL

Weakness in the Passing Game.

Speed and talent in the Secondary ( CB AND SAFETY )

I don't see much reason for hope and a turn around and no legitimate NO. 2 WR. Goot had to bring in help there by the Trading Deadline.

The 'Have Teams' made the necessary moves and our Teams GM sat pat. That was an error.

The Packer Receivers have to improve their Route Running dramatically..

Aaron Rodgers has to stay on his feet and stop those silly dink passes.

That's asking a lot !

Vikings remaining schedule:

13 Mon December 2 8:15PM ET @ Seattle Seahawks
14 Sun December 8 1:00PM ET Detroit Lions
15 Sun December 15 8:20PM ET @ Los Angeles Chargers
16 Mon December 23 8:15PM ET Green Bay Packers
17 Sun December 29 1:00PM ET Chicago Bears

If they win at Seattle next week, they probably become the favorite to win the division.

The answer to guess that take from Bill Huber:

The lack of a #2 WR is a strength because it’s different guy each week so defense don’t know how to plan.

[Sparkey]

I thought Adams would make the offense really good when he returned, but it looks disjointed with him on the field.

[Sparkey]

Question ? Why is Allison playing. He literally can not outrun anyone.

[Teamcheez1]

I have to put this season in perspective.
We haven't made the playoffs in two years, and looks it like we will be returning this year.
There is still work to do with this roster to reach the top echelon of playoff teams.

All of you have mentioned areas that need improvement from OL, WR, ILB, etc.. Can AR hold it together for a few more years to have at least one more shot at the superbowl?
8-3 is a far cry from where we stood when the season started.

Question ? Why is Allison playing. He literally can not outrun anyone.

Speed has never been his strong point. But he's dropped a lot of passes this year. He's been terrible. He'll be gone after this year.

[Sparkey]

The 49ers were smart to target Martinez on play action crossing patterns over the middle.
