Official 2020 Packers vs New Orleans Saints Week 3

[GB-Brandon]

I'd rather go get a run stuffing tackle or an elite ILB. Just sayin' all those 1's in our offensive ranking don't make anyone but you think we are short weapons.

Also the defense is more then a DL or a ILB away from being elite and dominate.

Our no.1 Asset right now is Aaron Rodgers and the offense. We are very thin at playmakers right now. For me you put everything you can in place to keep this offense going and safeguard it from injury and better competition . It’s our best chance.

I think on a neutral field MIN beats Jets, Bengals, Jags and loses to Falcons. I'll throw the Giants and Redskins in there too -- I think MIN would beat them. Maybe Carolina. I think they'd beat DET head to head. Not sure about CHI. They look like they are going to struggle this year but I could see them getting hot if the young guys figure it out and gel. Zimmer's got a lot of work to do. Kubiak too. They look like a 7-9 team at best, which suits me fine because I don't root for the Vikes unless they play the Bears.

I think Detroit has a problem keeping leads. They have a decent offense - they played GB with 2 backup OL, and their backups < GB's backups. I'd think they beat NYJ, CIN, NYG, lose to CAR, WAS, ATL, JAX, MIN. They look like they're headed for 4 or 5 wins and Bob Quinn firing Patricia to keep his job.

DET and MIN might not be playoff teams, but they are division foes and so I tend to throw a lot of things out the window. The teams know each other well and have rivalries. Last year GB almost lost to David Blough and Bo Scarborough in week 17 with a bye on the line. Patricia has done well against the Packers historically, and winning at US Bank has been a rarity for the Packers...I refuse to consider wins against them gimmes. They would have to play historically bad for me to think otherwise.

I don’t think anybody has discredited a win but simply pointing out that we might want to pump the breaks a little on all these so called “Great Weapons” that aren’t even grading out particularly well right now until we get to see them against better competition.

Thomas is also seeing the Packers’ hotshot foot specialist this week, so that’s a good sign he ain’t gonna play. I know, ethics call for MDs to keep medical stuff secret, but ethics didn’t stop the foot doc from revealing the cause of Cam Newton’s foot injury to Pettine prior to the Pack-Panthers game last season.

Yeah. packers team doc ftw

Listening to MLF last week, it sounded like Clark wanted to play. They didn't put him on IR so they must be thinking 2 games at worst for the injury.

There is a chance 97 is a no go, but I expect him to play. We’ll get a better judge of the Packers full potential on defense once Clark plays a game.

[RashanGary]

Gary is leading the team with 7 pressures
He's leading the team with 4 qb hits
He's second on the team with 1.5 sacks

Once Clark comes back, the addition of Gary in year 2 plus keke in year 2.... The Packers should show improvement up front.

I haven't watched the games, but the fantasy analysts are all saying his arm looks dead.

I'm sure it will come back to life next week.

He can throw a 10-12 yard dig route and a shallow out route and that’s about it from what I’ve seen of him so far. We shall see.

Packers DB’s should be licking their chops ready to feast.

Agree. I thought he looked done last year. Week 1 and 2 his legs are as under him as they're gonna get and he's still noodle arming it around. It'll only get worse as the season progresses. He's done for

[RashanGary]

Brady looks good though. Live arm. He’ll be fine

Except that teams don't win Owls with dominant offenses and suspect defenses. We need more D. We are scoring plenty. End of story.

I hope you are right. I would rather he looks old this sunday night than vintage drew.

Fuck more D. I don’t trust Pettine with anymore pieces or with a game on the line for that matter. I surely wouldn’t put our season in the hands of Mike Pettine. That would be a mistake!!! The D can “Play with the Lead” and is built that way so we have to be able to get leads and score points. We haven’t proven we can score at that rate against better defenses. We’re also very thin at WR right now. We have to be able to keep it going!!! I trust Rodgers and want to get him everything he needs to keep it going. IMO this is our best chance. Score 50 and let the D get a sack here and a pick there and win games!!!

He need to retire!!!

While I am totally in the boat that the Packers screwed the pooch on WR in the draft the last couple of years, I'm not sure I'm in the boat on a mid season trade. All reports are it takes a good while for AR and his WR's, regardless of WHO they are, to get on the same page, route running, and confidence level. Would a trade for a guy who knows nothing of the playbook and AR's expectations be better than the guys AR has been working with the last couple of years? Not sure about that.
