For the 20+ years, the Packers have had a passing game that has been reliable. The wide recievers may not have been the best ever, but they were good. We now are in a situation that none of our Wide Recievers can distance themselves the way they need to to be open.

You blame MM or Tom, but they are limited towards their possibilities

What I saw today was tight coverage, with no one beating their one-on-ones. I saw players DROP balls that were pin-point accurate. We have always drafted low on wide recievers.... and for awhile, it worked. But now it has caught up to us.

It's time to contemplate the FA route. I'm not talking about superstar WRs. An older guy, someone who can atleast just get open. Because right now, no one is open.

Disagree. Even PERILLO was getting open.

I saw plenty of drops by Cobb and Adams, but I also saw the usual complete lack of emotion and Aaron mis-firing and stat whoring.

Adams dropped like 10 passes, pathetic.

We saw two horribly missed Def PI/Holding calls, I wonder how much the refs let go today and how that affected our receivers (not that that is an excuse). Overall, with the stoppages and delays, this was a horribly officiated game.

When refs play loose, and let the DBs get physical... the Packers WRs seem to turn into struggling babies for some reason and don't toughen up...

One problem I've had is that their are tricks one can use when allowed to play more physical and the Packers WRs seem to either not use them or not known them... I think that they should be taught and used when the refs are allowing for more physical plays.

One of the ones I love/hate is when a WR can't get to the ball cleanly, they can throw themselves into the DB and make the DB run into/over them which normally gets a flag thrown... is that legal? I don't know but it happens... I know TE Greg Olsen basically did just that against the Packers when the ball looked over thrown, and he just threw himself into the DB and get the flag thrown for a LONG 1st down non-catch.

Todays issue was not just the passing game. How about that running game? They were playing not to lose the entire game. There is zero emotion on the team, well there was a little last week on the sidelines with Raji and Dix? The Lions had nothing to lose and they came to play. MM once again did not get the team ready to play. How does anyone get outcoached by Caldwell? Unless you are a dumbass HC.

Agreed, I will note that Starks had only 15 carries. That is not enough for a team to really get a consistent running game in gear.

The Packers managed to put up 40+ point in 2011 in the regular season against average defenses without a run game.

The Packers should be able to easily do that against the Lions in 2015.

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.

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
