Packers pass rush was solid, but quick throws nullified it. Should have adjusted.

A young defensive backfield was put to the test today, but stepped up when it mattered most. Congratulations to Randall for making the play of the game on defense.

In this case, I think it had more to do with the lack of a pass rush and the repeated blitzing that wasn't helping. Not sure why all of a sudden a rag tag O-Line from SD that had been through injuries and reshuffling was so effective today, but it was pissing me off that we kept short-changing our coverage to blitz when they picked it up time after time after time. How about we make some in game adjustments????

+1. You have no push from the D-line, your secondary is young and you go blitz happy against Rivers. This was a recipe for disaster. And what really annoys me is the lack of adjustment, you can't go for 500+ yards records if you adjust. You just make it stop.

I repeat, the NFL has made the rules such that a QB like Phillip Rivers is going to put up A LOT of yards. It's good for viewership. If a defense were devised that could hold him to 200 yards passing, the league would change the rules again.

Packers defense allowed 2 touchdowns today. Not a perfect performance but good enough to win.

Thank Capers that it wasn't worse than what it was - and the fact that lack of style points aside, WE WON THE GAME! The Chargers "rag tag" O Line outplayed our O Line by about a factor of ten.

Yeah, blitzing against top level QBs is generally a bad idea. Repeated blitzing against a top level qb when it's not really working is... well I don't really know the word for it. That being said yeah Rivers went over 500 yards but it took him 65 pass attempts so whatever.

I think they had two choices,

1) Play Conservative (which fans would blame Capers for doing) with a cover 2 over the top with tight physical man coverage underneath which I honestly don't think plays to the Packers strengths as they're missing Burnett (deep coverage is not Hyde's strength) and the Packers CBs aren't the more physical while the Chargers WRs can be fairly physical (lose that match-up) and they've got veteran targets while the Packers have fairly young CBs and LBers that aren't the coverage type (again probably lose that match-up)... so unless they waited almost all of their DBs on the field (which they had anyways due to injuries, only Goodson and Gunter didn't play defense) this might not of been the best way to go.

2) Play aggressive, attack Rivers and the OL, force Rivers to get the ball out quickly which he was forced to do in this game, just him and his targets kept making it work, even in some very tight coverage and with Rivers getting hits right after he let the ball go, the Packers were beating the OL, but weren't beating Rivers quickness and his targets skills that they were just better than our DBs, but the defense was forcing them to make quick moves and not letting them attack down field too often.


It really was a lose-lose for the defense, as Rivers showed he's CLEARLY the best QB that no one talks about and might be in the elite QBs of the NFL with Rodgers, Brady, Brees and Peyton (grandfathered in), just that Rivers hasn't had the team around him to make huge post season runs like the rest of these guys.
