More Banjo - Packers vs Rams

[GB-Brandon]

It’s not that the Packers are so good that they can drop balls and get away with it. It’s that Aaron Rodgers is so damn good that they can get away with it. I’ve never seen anything like it!!!

They really need to build a statue of him in front of Lambeau!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Maybe Mike Pettine should take a page out of Rodgers playbook and be a little more “Aggressive” and trust his talent and defense and quit being such a Fucken pussy. That’s the biggest problem I see. Mahommes, Allen or Brady will light that stupid shit he is running at times up!!!

Well, I get that. I even agree, to an extent. But you do run the risk of allowing the other team to score in one or two big plays, and then all the work your offense has done is unraveled. There was a coordinator - was it Greg Williams? - who called an all-out blitz on the last play of the game in order to be "aggressive" and got burned - and then fired.

So I see both sides. I do think, ultimately, this defense is better when it is more aggressive. They stand back and play loose, and it's not like it's taking the other side seven or eight minutes to score. They're still scoring pretty quickly.

I never said anything about “All Out Blitzes” but going into a total prevent and playing way off the ball with rushing three isn’t “Playoff Football” with the game in balance as far as I’m concerned!

Why spend all those 1st round draft picks on the secondary and overall defense and spend all that $ on the free agents to just sit back & play some soft zone and rush 3 guys?

We really didn’t need to go through all the expense!!!!

So taking into account the score of the game, how much time is left, and other parts of the context, should not be taken into account when devising a defensive strategy because you spent a bunch of money on some players?

Glad you're not the coordinator.

Early in the game the Rams went right down the field the with virtually the same defensive looks. They jumped offsides which pretty much kept them out of the endzone. We got lucky holding them to 3.

This has been going on with Pettine all year.

BS. Don’t even start this bullshit. Those balls should have been caught. No QB will be entirely perfect. Rodgers was the biggest difference in this game. He’s going to win us a Superb Owl. Guy is phenomenal—even against the best defense in the NFL. Nobody is going to be perfect.

You start with saying bullshit, then move on to nobody’s perfect. Conflicting viewpoints.

I said to my friend yesterday that I am spoiled as fuck when Rodgers hits a guy on his back shoulder on a drag route and I’m pissed about it. He was off a bit yesterday, and his off is better then basically anyone else.

He did fuck that throw to MVS at the goal line where they settled for a FG. 7-0 after deferring the opening kickoff would be demoralizing and 3-0 is a moral victory. Other than that, he was missing throws by a foot or two that he’s made for 15 years. We are spoiled.

[Bossman641]

Nah, he still gets a solid B+. Its only because we are spoiled with A to A+ that we think this game was anything else. Did you watch the other game? Jackson and Allen weren't even close to Rodgers.

Agreed. I'm judging him on his own scale. His B have is an A for others.

[GB-Brandon]

Whatever!! MVS has to make that Fucken Catch and help out his QB!! It’s like if Rodgers doesn’t put the ball in the guys face mask it’s on Rodgers. I call bullshit!!

Not only can some of these receivers consistently not catch “routine balls” but asking them to make any difficult or contested catch is like asking for a miracle!!!

It’s been the only thing really slowing the offense down all season.

[GB-Brandon]

How about this scale?

GOAT!!!!!

Statue in front of Lambeau!!!

Rodgers is running this offense with a piece missing from the engine. The scheme is in place. We have best receiver in the NFL IMO. We have an all-star RB and nice complimentary backs. We have a decent TE and some other complimentary receivers. We have a competent and effective OL.

So while the Offense is no.1 and everything and putting up numbers there is that piece missing. This is the piece that would put us at true “Greatness” that Lombardi talked about. That is what I thought the target was.

Rodgers is the one overcompensating for that missing piece so to blame for anything is ridiculous!!!!
