I think we will struggle holding back their running attack...we have struggled all year doing so and I don't see it getting better vs the Raiders.

The question is what this guy's understanding of an additional pass rusher is. In a 3-4 at least one of the olbs rushes the passer on common downs, so I don't expect him to think, that 4 guys is one more than usual.

They're out of McFadden and Taiwan Jones, plus they miss a couple of WRs. If Aaron puts us aheaed +14 in the first quarter, their running attack will be slowed down by their gameplan. They'll have to pass all day long.

I've Bush in my fantasy team and he's IMO no option for this week.

Packers 42, Raiders 13

But hopefully our offense will jump out fast and eliminate the option of running from the Raiders' gameplan. If they have Carson Palmer throw it 30 or 40 times, you can almost guarantee 2+ interceptions.

Here are some milestones that could be accomplished today:

[list]
  • With a win OR with a loss AND a New Orleans loss, the Packers clinch the No. 2 seed and a first-round bye
  • With a win AND a San Francisco loss AND a New Orleans loss, the Packers clinch the No. 1 seed and home field advantage throughout the playoffs
  • With a win, the Packers solidify their hold on sole possession of the second-longest winning streak in NFL history (19)
  • With a win, the Packers extend their NFL-record of consecutive games in which they never trailed in the 4th quarter (19)
  • With a win, the Packers become the first Packers squad and only the 8th team in league history to a season 13-0-0
  • With 2 touchdown passes, Aaron Rodgers ties the league record for most consecutive games with 2 touchdown passes (14)
  • With 2 touchdown passes, Aaron Rodgers ties the team record for touchdown passes in a season (39)
  • With 1 interception return for a touchdown, Charles Woodson ties the league record for most career interception returns for touchdown (12)[/list]

  • These are just the first ones off the top of my head. I am sure there are more.

    Tightening up the Packers' defense: Despite the Packers' perfect record, Mike McCarthy expressed to his team that its quality of play needs to improve. For example, he was concerned about having too many dropped passes in last week's win over the Giants. There is no question defensive coordinator Dom Capers has to stop the leakage on the Packers' defense. The Packers are allowing 397.8 yards per game and are next to last in the NFL. No team has ever reached the Super Bowl allowing more than 360 yards per game. The 2009 Saints beat the Colts in the Super Bowl despite allowing 357.8 yards a game. Enter the Oakland Raiders. No one can figure out what happened to them last week. Hue Jackson took his team to Miami, and the Raiders ended up as though they were in the Bermuda Triangle. They fell behind 34-0 and never competed. The Packers and the Raiders have met only 10 times, but the Packers have won the past five and will try to bring the number to six at Lambeau Field.

      beast (17h) : 6 days
      wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
      Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
      dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
      Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
      Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
      Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
      Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
      dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
      dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
      Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
      dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
      dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
      Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
      dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
      Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
      Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
      Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
      Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
      dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
      Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
      Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
      Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
      Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
      Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
      wpr (9-Apr) : yay
      Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
      Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
      Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
      Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
      Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
      Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
      Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
