Official Green Bay Packers discussion thread Part VI

Arizona loses tonight and we would be playing for the 2 seed next week.

LET'S GOOOOO PHILLLLLLLYY!

Cardinals offense is to explosive beating in pass and run game.

[iRelentless]

What's weird is, these next 2 games, will most likely be our first 2 games in the playoffs, in opposite order, assuming we beat Minnesota.

I don't know how we will beat Arizona, mainly because our offense hasn't shown it can put up points, but I still believe we have the talent to do so.

Hopefully our defense doesn't get exposed.

[AMeyer9]

Who do the pack have next week...Vikes should beat the Giants but they never play well in Lambeau

Depends greatly which NYG team shows up. I think it'll be a close game with the Giants coming out ahead tbh

In which case we better beat Arizona as that would clinch the division.... Though it's gonna be a long shot for both things to happen IMO

I can definitely see Minny losing, but us winning on top of that... I will hope for it as anything is possible

[-=Zeus=-!]

we played like garbage yesterday.

[raytripp86]

vikings might win this one, odell beckham jr is suspended this week vs vikings.

[fatboystick]

Even with Matthieu out, dont see us winning this game. We havent played a game offensively since week 3-4 to instill any kind of confidence. Our defense has its hands full as well.
That being said...I still think we are better than we've played.....not saying its gonna happen, but it wouldnt shock me to see our offense put it together just in time for a playoff run.

Nice for the vikes that OBJ is out, now.

agreed. Offense was terrible in red zone blew so many opportunities. Better offense they would lost that game

[Curl Master]

Palmer sure likes throwing it deep rare with today's dink and dunk passing game. Randall better do better

Woodson retiring after season

just noticed that. Injuries must have to him this season.

I disagree with having the talent.

Number 12 definitely has the talent no doubt about that but the rest of the offense is super suspect.

Adams is supposed to be a burner, but he never burns anyone and has hands of stone.

Rodgers has had one good game otherwise he's pretty much been trash. He has been a good target in the red zone but most of those TD catches came earlier in the year.

Abbredaris/Janis are athletic freaks who can't seem to learn the offense

Cobb has developed drop-itis as well

The O-line has regressed

Starks has some really great runs but seems to fumble once per game

Lacy is a wrecking ball in the open field but is not a short yard back at all.

The packers are terrible at converting on 2-1 or 3-1 runs. They have to rely on Rodgers getting defenses to jump offsides or get them with 12 man on the field penalties.

Redzone offense is fuc.king potato as ****

Rodgers hasn't thrown for over for over 220 yards in his past 5 games. Granted a lot of it has to do with dropped passes

MIN 212 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs
CHI 202 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT
DET 273 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT (65 of those yards came on the hail mary play otherwise another sub 220yd performance)
DAL 218 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTS
OAK 204 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT

Mike McCarthy is a potato and will always be Tony Dungy 2.0 in my book. It's a shame really since the defense has been playing really great for the vast majority of the season its definitely a bend but don't break defense but has managed to keep games close enough to give this offense a chance to win games. With that said the Packers do have 10 wins so they find ways to win, unfortunately it's always against poverty teams and the way in which they win games will not be effective against the top tier teams in the league.

Honey Badger being out helps us alot. if we can get a few turnovers on the big down field throws from Palmer (i watched the game vs PHI, he is not throwing super accurate deep balls but his slants across the middle are on point) we will be able to stay in the fight. Then it's a matter of our HC understanding he needs to change the pecking order....WR1 and deep threat needs to be Janis atm, #2 and possession is Jones, slot has to be cobb, Adams goes back to his role as WR4 where he will be facing a nickle back or safety. also think more 2 TE sets with Quarless back is going to happen. Maybe establish the power run, deep play action off that over the 2 role player safeties they are using.....thoughts?

Aaron Rodgers would like to see Jared Abbrederis get more playing time.

I would assume that means he would like to see Adams get less?

Abbrederis had a couple catches in that game. Adams caught the ball but does not get open consistenly and overall stinker of season.

Packers finally put WR Ty Montgomery on injured reserve. He is going to have ankle surgery to "clean up cartilage damage".

I think the expectations of Adams were not realistic though.

He seems to be the only one catching a majority of the balls thrown his way. Adams turned out to be Boykin Jr. One solid season where you show promise and fall of the face of the earth after that.

not good was hoping he would come back

[papi93]

Packers long snapper Brett Goode just went on IR. He torn his ACL.

[HotCheetos]

Glad I wore my Woodson packers jersey Sunday. Respect for such an awesome career.

No Montgomery back this season is going to be an issue in the playoffs, especially if Adams continues to get so many snaps. New long snapper is also a recipe for disaster in key situations. I still have hope with the defense playing well enough and offense could break out at any time with Rodgers, but it isn't looking too likely

[mp83]

I wonder if Seattle will rest starters week 17. If so, Arizona will likely get the bye even if GB wins this weekend.

is the medical staff incompetent?

Makes one wonder if Lacy will have offseason surgery on his ankle.

need to fire conditioning coach way to many injuries.

if we can get a few turnovers on the big down field throws from Palmer (i watched the game vs PHI, he is not throwing super accurate deep balls but his slants across the middle are on point)

What game were you watching? He only had ~5 deep passes.

- 1st was the 1st play of the game, where he put the ball on a dime 50 yards downfield and John Brown dropped it. Was a TD otherwise.

- 2nd was another dime to John Brown, dropped.

- 3rd was double coverage to JB, incomplete

- 4th was triple coverage to JJ Nelson, incomplete

- 5th was completed 1 hand catch by Mike Floyd at the 2.

If not for drops, he was 3/5 on deeps, 1 TD. CP is also #2 in the league in 20+ yard throws, and #2 in 40+ yard throws.

I expect a really good game. Huge game for both teams.

[Clockwork123]

its always good seeing arod being a human....

Sam Shields still hasn't been cleared from his concussion.
