The Packers-Rams matchup provides a truly tremendous individual matchup between All-Pro players. When the Green Bay Packers  and Los Angeles Rams  take the field on Saturday afternoon, there will be no shortage of exceptional matchups, particularly when the Packers have the football. Aaron Rodgers, the likely NFL MVP, has elevated his game to new heights this season, and he leads the #1 scoring offense against the Rams’ top-ranked defense.

The individual matchups, however, might be even more impressive than the units as a whole. One exceptional challenge to watch will be Aaron Donald, an All-Pro for the sixth straight season and a Defensive Player of the Year candidate, against the Packers’ exceptional interior offensive line. Left guard Elgton Jenkins was voted to the Pro Bowl  this year, while center Corey Linsley earned first-team All-Pro honors along with Donald.

But even that matchup will be overshadowed by the one on the boundary, where cornerback Jalen Ramsey appears poised to follow Davante Adams across the field.
With apologies to Buffalo’s Stefon Diggs, Adams was the NFL’s best wide receiver this year. He led the NFL with 98.1 receiving yards per game and 18 touchdowns, and only two wide receivers who were targeted more than 50 times caught a greater percentage of their targets than Adams’ 77.2%. He obliterated his previous career-high in that area as well as setting a new high mark in yards per target by a full yard. Furthermore, Aaron Rodgers had a passer rating of 136.0 when targeting Adams, even though three of Rodgers’ five interceptions were thrown in #17’s direction.
Enter Jalen Ramsey.

If the Rams use the smart tactic of putting CB2 on Adams with help and use CB1 to lock down our WR2 ... we're going to be in trouble. If they simply lock CB1 onto him, I think that gives the Packers the best chance to win in the passing game.

I'm just seeing Jalen Ramsey and Troy Hill as two really good CB's that's going to force the Packers to really spread the ball around to folks like Lazard, Tonyan and the RB's. I don't think there will be any big plays in the passing game. Lost of dink and dunk.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.
