Official Packers v Ravens Preseason Finale

[red]

holy hell, is welsh crosseyed, or does he have some minor retardation going on?

[MadScientist]

What in the fuck is an Arron Mosby?

Barnabus Fuckdoggle of the day?

In the second half of the last preseason game, everyone playing is a fuckdoggle.

[Jaire]

Carlson with the 32-yard miss to the right...

He didn't miss from inside of 40 last season on FGs.

He missed a lot of point afters. IMO, he was the biggest reason we lost the San Fran game. Gotta do better. If the others don't do better, I suspect they will try to do a trade in season.

edit: oh yeah. I remember now. I hated that they went for it on 4th down by the goal, early. Not the way to play it against San Fran on the road in the playoffs.

He looks like he might be part Native, Inuit, or Asian.

This picture definitely looks Asian to me.

Thank you Captain Obvious

[Bretsky]

we have way too many talented WR's

need to try and trade some tonight, get something for them at least

How about a starting kicker ? lol

Welch has made the team.

I said similar in the 53 man roster thread, but he also is a vested veteran meaning if they keep him, the salary is guaranteed. But his fate will tell us a lot about how serious they are on special teams.

His name came up a lot in camp as well. Cox may find himself on the PS if no one in the league is interested in him.

Had the shower thought this morning that..

Our backups did worse to the Ravens' backups than the Broncos' starters did to our backups. Whatever that's worth.

The thing I noticed is that how well the Packers practiced in the scrimmage seemed to carry over to the game.

Amazing how well people perform when $$$/job is on the line...

Best/worst grades according to PFF.

Top 5 offense

1. WR Malik Heath: 82.4
2. RB Nate McCrary: 81.7
3. OT Caleb Jones: 78.8
4. OT Travis Glover: 76.5
5. TE Henry Pearson: 75.9

Heath caught four of his five targets, including a contested catch for a touchdown, and all four of his catches resulted in first downs or scores. McCrary gained 43 yards after contact, forced three missed tackles and created two runs over 15 yards. Jones was solid in the run game and didn’t allow a pressure over nine pass-blocking snaps. Telfort didn’t give up a pressure over 18 pass-blocking snaps at left tackle. Pearson caught one pass for four yards and earned the team’s highest run-blocking grade overall.

Top 5 defense

1. LB Kristian Welch: 94.3
2. DE Arron Mosby: 92.0
3. LB Chris Russell Jr.: 90.3
4. CB Gemon Green: 81.1
5. CB Kalen King: 80.8

Welch produced three stops and defended two passes, including an interception, earning an elite pass coverage grade. Mosby had a strip sack and an interception over 17 snaps. Russell had two tackles without a miss and was solid in coverage, giving up only two catches for 10 yards. Green had two stops and gave up just one catch for nine yards over 25 coverage snaps. King forced a fumble, produced three total stops and allowed only 13 receiving yards on five passes thrown into his coverage.

Bottom 5 offense

1. QB Michael Pratt: 42.0
2. QB Sean Clifford: 42.7
3. WR Grant DuBose: 45.8
4. TE Joel Wilson: 46.4
5. TE Messiah Swinson: 50.9

Pratt had a big-time throw but also threw an interception during a disappointing second half. He completed just one passes thrown over 10 yards — the touchdown to Bo Melton. Clifford didn’t have a completion under pressure and also had a turnover-worthy play. DuBose didn’t have a catch on one target while running 17 routes and earned the team’s lowest run-blocking grade. Wilson dropped a pass. Swinson earned poor run-blocking grades.

Bottom 5 defense

1. LB Ralen Goforth: 41.4
2. CB LJ Davis: 41.8
3. S Benny Sapp III: 43.5
4. S Kitan Oladapo: 48.0
5. DL Keonte Schad: 50.3

Goforth missed a tackle and earned a low run defense grade before leaving with an injury. Davis earned the defense’s lowest pass coverage. Sapp missed two tackles. Oladapo was below average against the run. Schad had one stop but struggled against the run.

Special teams

Henry Pearson had a pair of special teams tackles but also missed one. Emanuel Wilson, Gemon Green and Kristian Welch also had tackles. The Packers missed five special teams tackles, including one from Pearson, Kalen King and Benny Sapp III. Daniel Whelan put one punt inside the 20-yard line, and Anders Carlson missed a field goal from 32 yards.

Quarterback play

Sean Clifford: 42.7
Michael Pratt: 42.0

Both quarterbacks had a turnover-worthy play, and they combined to complete 53.8 percent of their passes and average 5.1 yards per attempt. Clifford really struggled against pressure, completing 0-for-5 passes and scrambling once on six pressured dropbacks. The lone big-time throw was Pratt’s touchdown pass to Bo Melton.

Stat to know

Packers running backs gained 125 yards after first contract, forced seven missed tackles and averaged 3.21 yards after contact. Nate McCrary, Ellis Merriweather and Emanuel Wilson combined for six runs over 10 yards and 10 runs gaining first downs.

The performance of those three RBs plus Pearson should spell doom for Dillon.

Where did we pick up Lecitus Smith. I kept seeing this big #61 make blocks and open holes all game. He looked damn good.

Heath seems clearly better than Dubose.

Hopefully we find a way to keep a couple of those FA LBs on the PS.

Hopper again looked damn good. I wouldn't be surprised if McDuffie is gone at some point in the season.

Oladapo didn't look as good as a couple of the UDFA Safetys.

Great to finally hear the Packer broadcasting feed on NFL Network.
