Pass protection 'excellent' for Rodgers· Page 2

I was surprised that someone would say the offensive line is providing excellent protection for Aaron Rodgers.

I think getting the ball out quickly helps keep the sack/pressure numbers down.

This by no means verifies that thought, but I thought it was somewhat interesting to note.

On passes that traveled 10+ yards in the air, Rodgers completed (66%) 18 of 27.
On passes that traveled 9 yards or less in the air, Rodgers completed (85%) 49 of 58.

These Ts need all the help they can get.

Barclay had a rough day. That's why he's a back up. We had to expect the sacks would come. My hope is that Bulaga is ready to go and plays well after the bye.

Wasn't it a 4-6 week estimate from the team?

I don't get why our coaches don't keep a tight end over there to help Barclay? It's just poor coaching.

Wow, who would have thought that the OL is the weakest link on the team. How much longer is Rodgers not going to get up after being sacked so many times?

Why they would expect that, I have no idea. Also it seemed the Niners were prepared for the free plays thing.

A win is a win is a win ........ but sheeesh! the pass blocking was poor and the run blocking was inconsistent at best.

With Aaron Rodgers' escapability, I think I'd rather have the TE be a safety valve or in some other pass pattern.

The Niners played like shit last week, but they were on their game today defensibly anyway. It would be nice to have better O Line blocking, but the fact is, we can win pretty much anytime against pretty much anybody with what we have.

Mucky Tundra (11h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (13h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (13h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (13h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
