Lot of positives from this game. Main one being Jordan Love knocked off a lot of rust and came out no worse for the wear.

Lot of negatives too. Kicker is ass. OL got bullied in run game. DL couldn't get consistent pressure. CB2 and CB4 just aren't good enough to cover guys like Jefferson and Addison.

is ass

an object of mild annoyance; irritatingly bothersome
accordingly, I don't think "is ass" is quite strong enough.
3. Re CBs, no, our guys aren't great, in fact they are not very good, but with that pass rush, Herb Adderley and Deion Sanders would not have been good enough.

Go Packers!!!!

I just got home. I've been going to game for more than 20 years the first half was probably the worst I've ever seen and I went to a handful of games in the 70 and 80s. F for everyone offense, defense, special teams and coaching staff. Horrendous.

While the second half was better the Vickie's were more interested in milking the clock. As soon as the Packers got close the FG more or less put the game out of reach.

Even so the sack fumble and Cooper recovering it had the crowd in a frenzy. I don't think I have ever heard them THAT loud. Probably 20-25% louder than what they typically are when they try to drown out the offensive team. It was like standing on the tarmac when a jet was taking off. I was impressed. I wish we could have that kind of noise more often when the Packers are on defense. Then again I wish the Packers defense earned that kind of noise more often.
Nite all.

What happened to an aggressive pass rush? There was absolutely no rush today aside from a couple blitzes where guys were unblocked. It’s like they were trying to contain Darnold so he wouldn’t run. News flash: Darnold is not a running QB. The guy had all day back there. This is probably the #1 reason the Packers lost.

Also- Aaron Jones killed us, as I suspected. Very annoying.

Oh, and yeah we need a kicker. 37 yarders should be automatic. Terrible.

Aaron Jones didn't score a point and wasn't that much of a factor. He amassed a good chunk of total yards, but he was less of an impact that I figured he'd be.

Packers held old friend Aaron Jones to 1 yard or less on 8 of his 22 carries Sunday.

Z2C, you have brought to mind an interesting statistic. I have long argued that 'average' should not be used as the go to statistic when looking at a running back. Rather median should be used.

If a runner gets the following sequence 1 yard, 2 yards, 12 yards, 1 yard, 3 yards, 1 yards, 20 yards: that is a 5 yard average. However to me, this series of numbers would indicate an ineffective run game. Herein the median would be 2.5 yards

However, if the series was 5,4,1,5,6,4,8 and 7yards, it is still a 5 yard average but it is much more drive sustaining and better run game, as the median is 5.5 yards

Go Packers!!!!

dfosterf (11h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (13h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (15h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (15h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (16h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
