Strength-The Packers strength in this game will be are Pass Rush no Clay Matthews or not(Pretty Confident he could play but im no expert 😛 )
More Players than Clay Matthews got pressure on the QB last game.Cullen Jenkins is so consistent at least 1 sack in each game so exciting to watch him and he got so much pressure as well.Mike Neal is also a good pass rusher he emerged last game with a sack and getting some pressure.And many more players that can pass rush BJ Raji,Zombo,Bisop,Woodson.We should give a young struggling QB in Chad Henne trouble and force maybe turnovers.

Weakness-It's hard to choose there is a couple of options...I could say are run game but it is improving each week.Are Offensive line could be the weakness especially with a good pass rusher in Cameran Wake watched him last week against the Pats hes like another Clay Matthews a moter that never stops.Bulaga could start again he did i guess a nice job on orakpo but we gave up a season high 4 sacks last game.This could be are weakness for the game.

How we will win the game-we need to be more balanced on offense believe it or not passing the whole game won't cut it.Jackson is improving each week lets get him the ball more.

Lets get back to the west coast offense and not a sort of spread offense Ik we want all are playmakers out but we need a rhythm in are offense.We should throw more screens it was a part of are offense that was a success last year.I saw 2 screens last game both plays worked out well 1 pass to jackson that got a good amount of yards,a staple that used to be in are offense were it was a run/pass bubble screen that got good yards.

So to win we need to be balanced on offense and get into a rhythm we dont need to spread it out all the time to get into a rhythm.

Jackson is better, but anyone can improve from zero!

I agree we need to get the screen back in our game plan. We don't have the greatest o-line and the screen is a play designed to cover that weakness.

Bjack can catch, but not well enough to run screens. For that we need Starks or Porter.
As far as Clay, I would hold him out in preparation for the Queens game the following week. Make sure you have him for that game. MM's career will be over if he gets de-pantsed by Favre again this year.
So let Clay rest that hammy, and run a 4-3 for this week. It's our Dlinemen who will be getting penetration. Neal, Raji, Jenkins mainly. I wouldn't be relying on Brad Jones or Poppinga. Zombo might get a little pressure, but I wouldn't count on it being consistent.
And put Bishop in the middle. Let Hawk be second string. If Bishop is capable of calling the defensive signals.
In fact, I'd even line Zombo up as a down lineman at defensive end. That's the position he played in college. He might be more effective in that position than as a 3-4 OLB.

Strength should still be the D.

Weakness is Special Teams.

To win, use Jackson better. Run and catch. and get out of the shotgun once in a while. Shotgun is an advantage for Dline over Oline(except C)

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Switching schemes is not a good idea in which i dont think we would ever do that for one game.We will play 3-4 the whole season even thoe we use 2-4-5 package a lot.To sum it up that will prob. never happen,just because matthews is hurt doesn't mean we switch schemes.

If we want a pass rush, I would say 3-3-5. Shift Jenks outside, with Raji and Neal and Zombo/Jones. I think that would still get good pressure without blitzing

I disagree. If anyone is willing to taylor his formations to his players, it's Capers. Hell, he's gone with ONE Dlinemen at times. LOL.
I'll tell you something else. We might be BETTER OFF if Flynn starts in place of Rodgers this week. I said that about Brad Jones last year when Kampy went down. I say it again.

Well you sounded like we should change the scheme completely i got misleaded a little bit.But basicly the phyco package is a sub package and not a scheme idk if capers will use a 4-3 defense just because matthews cant go or not.But if we use a 3-4 i say still use it what will a 4-3 defense do better than a 3-4?I mean we dont got the personal anymore that can rush like that.4-3 is a bad D imo i hate it i love the 3-4 its unpredictable plus we barley used the 3-4 this year we play alot of 2-4-5.I dont like the idea is what im trying to say.

"taylor his formations to his players" is what you said,Well are personal this time won't fit a 4-3 better than a 3-4 ik he does taylor his formations to the personal lets see what he does is we have athletic LB's and a big guy in jenkins thats a pass rusher so we took that and made it the phyco.Now lets look at if we went for some 4-3 packages jenkins,raji,?,neal not gonna work.Don't like it..Even if we put zombo as a Defensive end it would leave less depth at OLB.I think it would make it confusing and it would not work out well.I mean Ik what your trying to say but i dont think that will happen when matthews may play or he misses a week he is not the defense and if he's out we dont need a 4-3 more so than a 3-4.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
