I know a good deal of Packers fans would rather say the Browns gave the Packers the game instead of the Packers did some good things. You're a pile of shit, just my opinion. 🙂

Damarious Randall has played some really good football lately, that should be recognized.

Clay Matthews has played some really good football lately, why don't we talk about that? We'd rather make excuses as to why he's successful instead of acknowledge that he has been.

Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix ... sucks, you got me on that one.

Brett Hundley I still don't understand this guy. On the Jamaal Williams TD, he actually looked to have Davante Adams open for 10-15 yards right off the bat. But, I gotta give it to him because when the chips were down, he pulled another win out of his ass.

Mike McCarthy -- I really am starting to think this guy is a damn genius. I know we want to bash him for not taking the FG and going for it on 4th down, but if the QB tosses the ball like he should (look at the LT, he blocked as if the toss was happening) that's probably a touchdown, and at worst it's a first down. Then you see him pull these crazy good drives out of his ass at the end of the game. Why can't we do this crap right out of the gate? It's almost like he knows he's playing Chess vs Checkers, but decides to blindfold himself for 3 quarters by over thinking shit.

No, McCarthy is NOT a genius. Just listening to him talk about how Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams are doing really well he goes "love the production, but we really need to get Davante Mays in there too". Why? Why the hell do you need Mays in there if you got two RB's doing a damn good job? Stop worrying about the numbers and focus on points on the board!

We have some good players on this team. We do not have a chance for the playoffs, stop complaining about it. Let's enjoy these next three games to the fullest before we start focusing on who we're gonna complain about being selected by the Packers in April/May, whenever the hell the NFL draft is.

Edit, I wanted to mention that all season long, Blake Martinez has played pretty damn well too. We have some good players on this team, even on defense.

The last two games have had playoff level intensity as a fan I can't ask for much more. Also I don't subscribe to the notion the Packers are out, as long as they keep winning and Rodgers comes back strong they got a chance. The Seahawks will lose one more game and either the Falcons or Panthers will lose two.

Enjoy them while you can.

Playing with the Playoff Machine over at ESPN. Looks like Packers can get in, even with a loss to Vikings. If Eagles lose out, there's a chance we would face Eagles in Wild Card. I'm not sure we wanna play Nick Foles again though. I think he tore up the defense last time.

So . . . what is Ha Ha Clinton-Dix's grade? 😕

---

Looks like Adams wasn't the first option on that play and Hundley only spots him open after going through his progressions and by that time he had a defender breathing down his neck.

---

On the Jamal TD, it looked like they had the CB split. If he had followed Williams, the play goes to Adams shorter, if the CB goes after Adams, the throw goes long.

I like that McCarthy has switched and is running the ball inside with more power blocking, appears to have finally scrapped the outside zone crap that hasn't worked.

Wasn't not happy with the drive down to the 10 in the 3rd qtr. He outsmarted himself and got too cute. 3rd and 1 and he is trying to pull guards. Just run the damn a straight dive play. On the 4th down looked like the RB went the wrong way. But even then 4th and <1 and they are running a toss? Hell at that distance a QB sneak should get the 1st on almost every attempt..

---

Devonte Mays looked like the best out of the three rookie RBs in training camp, iirc.

---

I've must of missed something, because I haven't seen anyone bash Mike McCarthy for that play... it was the QB who didn't run the correct play (I assume), after he called the play (I assume), who I've seen people bash for that play.


There is only one (good) answer for that... is that Mays is looking good in practice and is showing something in practice that the other two aren't... like maybe speed AND power, where Jones and Williams only seem to have one or the other.

Of course, as you implied, there is a number of bad reasons for it... like so far he hasn't been able to hang onto the dang ball in a live NFL game.


And I want to mention that when asked about Martinez, Mike McCarthy turns credit to Clark and Daniels as he should, because while Martinez has done a great job of reading the offense and making the tackles, Clark and Daniels have done a HELL OF A JOB, keeping Martinez clean as they have been KILLING the OL run blocking double teams and both are ranked in PFF's 11-15 ranges for interior DL.

Pass rush from them could be improved some, but they're doing a pretty good job.

Thank you Clay!

Yes thank you Clay, I saw the two guys closest to the camera, but I completely missed the blow coverage assignment on the top.

To the twitter persons question, have I considered it? Yes!



Edit: It took me a while to figure out what the hell Haha was doing on that play... but I think he was told to rush the star WR to help Randall in case of a screen, but then he sees Matthews lose outside containment and kept running to get it back... but that was unneeded as Daniels and (more so) Ryan were all over the outside containment.

Also I wonder who broke containment on the top side... Hawkins and Martinez cover the same guy, so I'm thinking it might of been them... but it also looked like Martinez and Brooks might of both been in some sort of underneath zone coverage. So I'm assuming Hawkins or Jones were suppose to follow the guy deep. I'm gonna guess Hawkins.
