More Banjo - Packers vs Lions

Strange stat from Sunday: Packers scored only 9 points but punted only once.

These offenses have little left with respect to Shanahan. I remember Terrell Davis touching the ball 20-25 times a game with impunity in Shanahan Srs offense. Neither the Rams or Packers show any desire to truly embrace the run game, or their RBs.

The run fits and the route concepts are all the same even if the play calling doesn't always resemble it.

Strange how fat mike looked like the guy who was old and stale. Then the MiLF offense wasn't quite up to snuff...until we drafted Love and put a giant chip on someones shoulder. Then it was historic for 2 years....now MiLF is stale and old. Somehow I think this offense would look better with the Love machine running it. Not like the last 2 years to be sure, but better than it looks now.

How many RPOs has rodgers thrown that stupic fucking WR screen on that didn't work? There is a place for it, but I highly doubt its nearly as often as we do it.

I gots to agree with you here. Hundo P, as the kids said two years ago.

Kurt Warner analyzes the clusterfuck Detroit game

In summary, Rodgers did miss several opportunities for big plays down the middle.
A lot of the problems were receivers running the wrong routes, or running them poorly (wrong leverage, bad angles, etc.)
Watkins was absolutely terrible, not just on the goal line.

Either the Packers have the dumbest receivers in the league, or the coach is failing. It's the same coach as the previous two years, but he was promoted to WR coach / passing game coordinator. So he may be overwhelmed by the new duties, or he always sucked, but Adams covered for his flaws.
