Packers defense plays musical chairs again against Cowboys

A pretty good article talking about some of the different things Capers has done.

The adjustment against the Bengals was to insert rookie Josh Jones in the lineup for Burnett in the Packers nickel package (Nitro) and move Burnett into the slot as the nickel corner.

Capers never got the credit he deserved for that change as Burnett shined inside, keeping the too-slow Rollins off the field and allowing Green Bay to save House and King for outside duty only.

=======================
=======================

To run this against such a talented offensive line means Capers believed Nick Perry could win 1-on-1 vs. Tyron Smith, something he did a number of times in this game. And they trust Ahmad Brooks to do his job on the other side, something that wasn’t consistently the case with Datone Jones and even Julius Peppers last season for the Packers.

This allowed Blake Martinez, the league leader in run stops according to Pro Football Focus, to play with more strength around him and flow more freely to the ball. He led the team with 12 tackles and made plays behind the line of scrimmage all day.

Sounds like Capers has a defense with better players and as a result, is making good things happen. I'm excited to see what this unit can do later in the season. Another shot at the Falcons would be great.

Amazing Bacon Delivery Service! Never be without good bacon again.

And why not moan and groan about old man Capers? Were FANatics dammit. We will complain about someone or something no matter what.

At east we are usually limited to words. Look at all the riots, injuries and deaths attributed to the hooligan followers of international football clubs over the years. English fans being some of the worst thugs.

Martha Careful (3h) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (21h) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (21h) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (22h) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (22h) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (22h) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (22h) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (22h) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (23h) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\

Zero2Cool (23h) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?

Zero2Cool (23h) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.

Martha Careful (23h) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Shough is the guy who missed guys at combine isn't he?

beast (27-Apr) : It's not official until I'm dead! I have a chance still! (Not really)

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : I could feel my body decomposing in real time when I read that

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : @MIKEYSAINRISTIL Tyler Shough will officially be the last person drafted to the NFL born in the 1900’s

Mucky Tundra (26-Apr) : saw the tweet, he meant the city

Mucky Tundra (26-Apr) : Was that for the team or the city?

Zero2Cool (26-Apr) : Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter · 3m Draft grade is in: Green Bay gets an A. The people, the city, the venue were all superb. NFL Draft’s next

Zero2Cool (26-Apr) : Matt LaFleur says Jaire Alexander is participating in #Packers offseason program, which has been conducted virtually during this first week

TheKanataThrilla (26-Apr) : Sam Howell to Vikings...guess no Aaron

Martha Careful (26-Apr) : 1 round 7 min, with one extra minute if there is a trade. 2nd round 4 minutes, 3rd -3, 2 thereafter IMO

Martha Careful (26-Apr) : Agree

dfosterf (26-Apr) : Great idea imo

dfosterf (26-Apr) : 1st round to 7 minutes with one extension

dfosterf (26-Apr) : NFL comissioner wants to shorten the 2st

Mucky Tundra (26-Apr) : @jalenreagors They’re discussing if Sheduer can go back to college on NFL Network LMFAOOOOO

beast (26-Apr) : Great point Martha

beast (26-Apr) : Buddy Ryan used to say if a candy bar goes missing, there are two to blame, Rex and Rob 🤪 jk 😁

Martha Careful (26-Apr) : Bum Phillips used to say there are two ways to get better. Get better players or get players to play better. We have a new DL coach

Zero2Cool (26-Apr) : Yes. Look at the losses last year. They can win.

beast (26-Apr) : Can Packers win with their current DL?

bboystyle (26-Apr) : waiting for a pass rusher.

dfosterf (25-Apr) : 5 minutes between picks in the 3rd

dfosterf (25-Apr) : 3rd. Hate this phone

dfosterf (25-Apr) : 4rd

dfosterf (25-Apr) : 5 minutes in the 4

dfosterf (25-Apr) : 7 minutes between picks in the 2nd round

Martha Careful (25-Apr) : Sorry to bitch, but the headline writers in that section absolutely mislead, or don't know how to read. It is maddening

Martha Careful (25-Apr) : No thanks. Not a dependable guy to be in the right place and run the right route. Dumb as a box of rocks.

Zero2Cool (25-Apr) : Losing 2nd round pick for a one year rental, not ideal. Especially a headcase.

TheKanataThrilla (25-Apr) : Pickens for Jaire may be interesting. Definitely not sure we want Pickens long term.

dfosterf (25-Apr) : No.Absolutely not

Zero2Cool (25-Apr) : NO NO NO NO NO NO!!1 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
