I'm trying to figure out where PFF hides the pressure percentage stats as that's the true measure of a pass rush IMO.

But I can't seem to find them anywhere... but here is some interesting write ups about the Packers BEFORE the Seahawks game.

Green Bay Packers @ Seattle Seahawks
Zach Charbonnet had a breakout performance in Week 14 against the Cardinals with a career-high 134 rushing yards, 125 of which came after contact. His 125 rushing yards after contact were the third-most by any player in a game this season. For the Packers defense, 77% of the rushing yards they have given up have come after contact, the third-highest mark among defenses.

Jordan Love’s ability to evade sacks under pressure is one of his best traits. On 119 pressured dropbacks, he has taken 11 sacks, compiling only a 9% pressure-to-sack ratio that ranks third-best among qualifying quarterbacks. The Seahawks rank top 10 with a strong 36% pressure rate, but they have only been able to convert 17% of their pressures into sacks — which is the fourth-lowest mark among defenses.

Packers‘ receivers vs. the Seahawks’ press coverage
You probably shouldn’t leave the couch once 4:25 p.m. ET hits, because Packers-Seahawks on Sunday Night Football is another dandy — and a potential playoff preview. It will be fascinating to watch how Green Bay’s deep passing game performs against Seattle’s press defense.

This season, Packers receivers rank third in yards per route run (4.80), fourth in yards per catch (14.6) and fourth in threat rate (57.8%) when defenses turn to press coverage looks. At the same time, Green Bay holds just the 24th-best PFF receiving grade in those situations, primarily due to a league-worst 15.3% drop rate against press. Christian Watson is the only Packers receiver ranked inside the top 50 in PFF receiving grade against press among qualified wideouts.

On the other side of the line of scrimmage, expect Seattle’s cornerbacks to jab and punch with regularity. The Seahawks have utilized press coverage on 72.3% of defensive snaps, the sixth-highest clip in the NFL, and have been strong in that area. Seattle places ninth in EPA per play, 10th in success rate and 10th in contested catch rate when turning to press coverage. Star cornerback tandem Devon Witherspoon and Tariq Woolen each rank inside the top 20 in PFF coverage grade among cornerbacks with 100 or more press-look snaps.

Will Watson, Jayden Reed and Dontavyion Wicks be able to generate enough separation — and hold onto the ball? Or will Seattle’s defense help propel the team to a fourth straight win? Keep an eye on that receiver-cornerback matchup in this prime-time contest.

According to PFF Packers DL pressure rating is 30% which ranks 23rd in the NFL.

It should be noted that 6th through 23rd are in a pretty tight bunch between 30% and 33%. So Packers might be 23rd, but they're also not too far from a huge bunch in front of them.

But Packers are 7th in converting pressures into sacks. Which is best for the NFC teams that will be making the playoffs. And really the Vikings are the only NFC potential playoff team that's close to the Packers on this one.

Limiting yards before contact, Packers are 3rd, Vikings are 4th and again, no other NFC playoffs team close.

Vikings are best in the NFC at stopping running TDs while inside the 5 yard line. Packers are 2nd best.

Zero2Cool (18h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (21h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (21h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (23h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (23h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (23h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (23h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (23h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (23h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (23h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (23h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (23h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (23h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (23h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (23h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
