Sherrod was awful tonight. Frankly, he did not play well at LT either. Maybe if he had minicamps and OTAs, he would've been ready, but right now, they need to take it slow with him.

I personally didn't see Lang take the job from Sherrod. Sherrod gave it to Lang, which is not a good thing in my view, but Lang wasn't awful. He wasn't as good as Daryn College, though.

The QB play was outstanding. Graham Harrell looked comfortable for the first time in this offense. Matt Flynn continues to look like a future starter down the road. I understand he's up against poor competition, but his New England game last year speaks for itself. This guy is really impressive.

Alex Green had a great run on a screen pass. I think that is something we'll see much of in the regular season.

Overall, the team was sluggish out of the gate. I'm worried about the first team offense's tempo. Rodgers took too many hits, but Darnell Dockett does that to everybody. Defensively, Dom Capers is holding back obviously, so I don’t think there is anything to be concerned with unless the officials’ definition of pass interference is what Tramon Williams did to Larry Fitzgerald. That was an awful call.

It was a typical preseason victory. Personally, I thought Ryan Williams’ injury was a bigger story than anything the Packers accomplished. That is a huge blow for the Cardinals.

His footwork.. especially his width and first step are slow and narrow right now.. like he is stuck inside.. this allows the corner to be pressed and then to compensate he is turning his shoulders and it is over. I think if he cleans up the depth of his first step outside.. is able to center on the pass rush and then work on his shuffle.. he will be okay.. I think he shows he has the strength on the run.. so to me.. it really comes down to cleaning up his footwork and technique. Moving him inside isn't helping.. IMO.

I think Lang has regressed during his time in Green Bay.. his footwork was better coming out of college than now.. a theme I have noted under Campen for a number of years. IMO.. Campen is the weak link of the coaching staff.. by a mile.

Overall.. I thought the starting line save the left guard played very well.. that is the problem spot.

If Lang gets enough reps at guard and guard alone.. I think he will be ok.

I wonder if Flynn can fetch a starting G from another team. :-"

Lang didn't look bad. Sitton got beat pretty bad for a sack so I wouldn't just single out Lang as having a weak night for the starters.

1) It was preseason game 2. It is an evaluation game of which guys are stepping up. Few have gotten ready enough to take a step.

2) Sherrod gave up 3 sacks and Green gave up one. As rookies they are behind. In another 3 weeks they will be looking better; but they are rookies.

3) At this point I expect Kuhn to be the 3rd down back.

4) Hope Wilson is back soon.

5) CB depth is scary.

6) Perhaps Ted can trade West for a back up D-lineman or back up CB. He has made those type trades before.

7) I hoped Elsmore would show something but I'm disappointed I haven't seen anything good yet.

8) Some TE talent is going to be playing elsewhere. See #6.

9) With no offseason it is a real tough year to be a rookie.

Game two in the Pre-Season set up for the 2011 season. It was a "Thing Of Beauty." behind center.

The combined QB Rating for Aaron, Flynn, and Harrell today was Ghoulish, indeed.

Aaron, Flynn, and Harrell combine for 19 of 28, Three Touchdowns, ZERO Interceptions and 329 yards.

Let me see.. That is a QB rating of 143.30

I beg any doubters to find that number racked up with any NFL team in this pre-season.

Who is the biggest, "Big Dog" in the NFL as far as developing the greatest Quarterbacks?

I enjoyed the game. Good atmosphere in stadium. Wore my Nitschke jersey. I was amazed at how many of them I saw. Use to be just one or two. I must have seen 10 or 12. We sat in front of a young man who served overseas. When they did a video tribute to the current and former servicemen/women my wife turned around and asked him if he had been over there. he was a bit stunned and said yes. Asked how she could tell. Mothers have there ways. They left just after the last score. I stood up and thanked him and shook his hand. He was very respectful in receiving my thanks.

West had a great game. He is certainly gone. I can't imagine Johnson making the team at this time. On the radio they said Taylor is playing on most of the first team speacial team squads. He haas to get the nod ahead of Johnson.

I can see GB using a o huddle from time to time in order to get everyone in sync.

I watched this game at times tonight at the rock club. Let me tell you this, this was one of the most inspiring preseason games that I have seen out of these guys. The depth of this team really showed their worth tonight.

Other sacks were (I believe)..

Lang getting beat at tackle.. Sherrod getting beat at tackle.. and a stunt by Schofield that Green got overpowered but Lang may have released/missed the read (won't know without knowing the protection call just by appearance as he dove inside towards Schofield after is was by him).

For the most part, I don't think Lang played a bad game.. but I think he needs exclusive work there to get ready.. no more rotation.. let him get the snaps. I think the rest of the starters played well.. better in pass than run.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
