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.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : 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) : Oh, it's toe injury

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

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

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.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
