I didn't realize this until I read a Packersnews summary, but this is two straight games and Clay doesn't have a tackle. I get tackles don't necessarily indicate everything about performance, but at a time when this team needs their top leaders and playmakers to step up, a goose egg in tackles isn't really helping.

Clay's never really been a "vocal leader" kind of guy, but usually he's one that will step up in a situation and make a play.

Clay's last tackle came early in 4th quarter against the Cowboys. That's just crazy. No tackles vs Raiders. No tackles vs Cardinals. No tackles in 133 minutes of football for a guy earning almost $13 million this season.

I can't recall the series but at times he was blowing up the left tackle on consecutive pass plays, so much so that he flushed Carson out and back tracked and caused an errant throw near the end zone.

He still CAN make an impact, tackles don't necessarily define performance, but clearly no appearance on a stat sheet for 1/8th of the season is concerning

If he was playing 100% on the outside, the lack of tackles wouldn't concern me nearly as much. However, playing inside linebacker and zero tackles back to back games is somewhat alarming. I remember many people discrediting A.J. Hawk and Nick Barnett tackle totals on the fact that the position they played (ILB and MLB) puts them directly in favor of acquiring large tackle numbers.

I didn't keep track of snaps. But he was edge rushing far more last night than he had been most of the season. I think Ryan is getting more and more snaps inside lately. Ryan snap count has gotten significant since the Lions game.

Ryan got totally burned yesterday in pass protection. Some year we will fix that problem. Not sure if there are many ILBs next year, but I sure hope we draft somebody talented at that position one of these years.

Yesterday was a major let down from both sides of the ball. I'm not as much as worried with the defense as much as I'm worried from the offense. We've got no play makers on offense.
Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

Our defense is solid but isn't one that will simply dominate you. As a result, they can't hold up a whole 60 minutes if the offense isn't doing anything. It seems petty to me to complain about the defense or special teams - If we had a consistent, top 15 offense we'd be in solid shape.

If you punt from your 20 yard line or worse - you are not only sending the D right back out with little rest, but often a short field to defend. One phase of the game playing well can aid the other 2, but you aren't going to win championships without all 3 doing their jobs.

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Kanata, seek help! lol
beast (21h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status
Zero2Cool (21h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha
TheKanataThrilla (21h) : That was terrible.
TheKanataThrilla (21h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.
beast (22h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent
beast (22h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime
beast (22h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing
Zero2Cool (22h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is
Zero2Cool (23h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true
beast (23h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management
wpr (27-Dec) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.
Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago
beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years
Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.
packerfanoutwest (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it
beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done
Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
