Third game normally has the most time with starters correct?

Offense:
- Saw some issues with the O-line with holding calls and lack of pass protection. Maybe my expectations were too high after the Rams game.
- Rodgers looked a bit out of synch.
- Lacy played great for the 1 minute I saw him.
- Thought Harris played better than Starks although I loved the 2 point conversion by Starks.


Defense:
- Thought the secondary could have played better in the first half. Missed opportunities and penalties.
- 1st TD by the raiders made me nervous of past year mistakes, lots of bodies flying around near the RB but no one made the tackle.

Currently watching the second half . . .

My initial thoughts watching the game was that the coaching staff seemed more playful with plays than I was expecting. It was still vanilla but there were a lot more calls that left me confused after the first drive like they were just doing the "seeing what happens" thing. I was curious how that fit into the "hitting of targets" coach keeps talking about.

In any case Lacy was great and was taken out after the first drive. The number 1 offense still looks good, but not as good as they did in St. Louis. Boyd and Elliot stood out on defense. Datone Jones was active and seemed to be around the ball a lot in run defense. That's a good sign. Tolzien closed the gap in the QB race. House was more up than down finally. Are things finally clicking for him? Raji looked a little rough early on and then got injured which turned out to be season ending. A tough 24 hours for him for sure.

EDIT! I forgot about Peppers. He was awesome =d>

My quick thoughts:

-We didn't draft enough dynamic playmakers with elite top-end speed. Guns don't kill people. Bullets don't kill people. Speed kills people.

-Ted Thompson has ruined this team with his first-round misses on defensive players. Just look at our last five drafts -- you'll see we drafted guys like Nick Perry and Datone Jones and Ha Ha Clinton Dix. No Pro Bowls from any of those guys. First round is where you get Hall of Famers. None of those guys are in the Hall of Fame. Thanks a lot, Ted Thompson, you goddamn Holocaust denying sonuvabitch.

-Ted Thompson has ruined this team by drafting Bryan Bulaga and Derek Sherrod. Those guys don't even play defense. And neither one is an elite, mother-beating talent like Dez Bryant. Why do you hate America, uncle Ted?

-Just my opinion, but I just think we are wasting the prime years of Aaron Rodgers. I mean, we go out and get Eddie Lacy and that fat fuck doesn't have top-end, playmaking speed. We should have drafted Dez Bryant or something. Or Giovanni Bernard -- that dude is fast as shit.

-I'm glad to see Jeff Janis out there. Think of everything he's overcome as a white receiver? I'm going to have him autograph my copy of Mein Kampf. His eyes are dreamy, his thighs are creamy.

-That reminds me -- have I told you guys how pedestrian a player Davante Adams is? He's not even fast. I hate that bastard almost as much as I hate Jarrett Boykin.

That's all I have to say for now. I'm going to go hammer some more nails into my scrotum and work on my Ted Thompson voodoo doll.

*edit: Left out a word
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I rewatched the first couple series and had two additional notes.

Randall Cobb did not have his best game. I wonder what was going on? He also made a poor decision fielding a punt which cost the team field position.

Raji to Boyd was seemless. Boyd played as well if not a little better than Raji in the snaps I watched. The MJD run Raji allowed himself to get turned around. His back was to the play when MJD raced by. Not saying he could have stopped it as there were other guys on that side out of position but it didn't help. Boyd looked like he was physically matching up well each play.

Hawk was being held on the play. But yes there were multiple people out of position as I mentioned so I agree.

Fan Shout
packerfanoutwest (1h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

wpr (1h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
wpr (1h) : now 3
Zero2Cool (2h) : Who? What?
beast (11h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (15h) : meh
Zero2Cool (19h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (20h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (20h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (23h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (23h) : Only 4
wpr (23h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 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
