Not a lot of opportunities. Either the Lions defense is playing great or our OLine doesn't know how to run block (probably the latter).

I'm not trying to make excuses. Jackson has gone through the same exact thing.

Actually Jackson has looked decent in the couple of carries he's had today.

I don't dislike Jackson, and I want him to do well. I just want us to have a good running game, no matter who is running it.

Quit BSing yourself, we have no running game, period!!!

This game definitely proves this and this game isn't even being placed outside in the cold and wind. Long winter ahead.

This is a valid point. Many (myself included) started drinking the Starks Kool-aide last week...and I still feel that he seemed to finish runs better, and hit the hole quicker than Jackson, but it seems that Jackson hasn't had a prayer in hell all year because our Oline is a (insert your choice of George Carlin's forbidden 7 here) joke at run blocking.

IF directed to me..

I never said we have a running game

I am trying to prove a point that our line is as much to blame if not MORE so then who is running

+1 for succinctly making the most abundantly clear point of the day. Our OLine seems to be so-so at pass pro (except for today) but it's abundantly clear that they can't open up a hole big enough for a quark.

It is really weird.

Back in the offseason, this was exactly what I was worried about with respect to the OL (unable to run or pass, Rodgers knocked out of game).

Yet, eerily, I can't bring myself to say "told you so." I still think the OL is the team's weakness, but I think overall the team is better than I thought it would be right now.

Maybe it's because the Packers seem to play badly most years in Detroit. But I'm far more confident about GB's playoff future than I was in either March, July, or September.

It doesn't hurt that the Bears are getting killed by the Patriots, though.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

beast (20h) : Technically, the I in FIB stands for Italian now, Si?

dfosterf (22h) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (23h) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
