The point of play action is to get the LBs / DBs to bite.

In the West Coast Offense - or its multiple versions - short passes function similar to the running game: three-to-five yard gains. This type of ball-movement should also leave possibilities for making LBs / DBs bite, albeit with different routes, such as those containing double moves, or having Rodgers pump fake.

I guess what I am trying to say is that having a running game would not have made the difference between a win and a loss tonight.

Nor any other night when the passing game is as effective as it was. And trust me, we can win 9-10 games on passing alone if we don't have 18 penalties. Easily.

You know what I just read, and it seems very fitting:

The final play, where the Packers are throwing back and forth on the return, the refs ran out of flags and had to resort to throwing their hats.

Poetic.

If the refs weren't allowed to pick flags up, they would have been completely naked. Thank god they pick flags up after the play!

Sure it could have made a difference. By throwing the ball 45 times the risk of getting called for holding, false starts, ect is greater. Especially when the majority of those calls were caused by peppers. By running the ball you can take the pass rusher out of the game in this case peppers.

When did they change the rules to where you couldn't be called for a hold or false start on a running play? If we would have ran the ball 30 times and gotten 120 yards, don't you think we would have still thrown the ball about 15-20 times? Not exactly much of any difference in play count. Valid point in regards to peppers, but there's zero chance there would have been more than 3 less hold/false starts. Zero.

And besides, you're not arguing the value of a running game there as much as the lack of discipline on the part of our line on passing downs.

I'm not sure how.

You can get called on holding, false starts, and delayed reactions on running also, because the ball still has to be snapped and guys on the O-line still have to sustain blocks.

You can take Peppers out of some plays by running more - although even that would not seem possible today because Peppers seemed to be living in our backfield today.

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)
