Why are so many runners getting to our ILBers in the first place? Are we keeping our ILBers closer to the LOS because of how weak our Dline is. Seems either the RB blows through the line and than is on top of our backers, or bounces outside and is on our LBers.

I think that's pretty much how it works for every team. That's why ILB/MLB always get so many tackles. Problems are if too many blockers are getting to your ILB or if your ILBs are simply not getting into good position to make tackles.

Wouldn't that be exciting football? Of course there is always some stupid ref who would throw the flag and try to neuter the LBer for playing hard.

Week 1 AJ Hawk plays 48 of 70 Defensive plays......Seattle 207 yds rushing.
avrg. - 5.6yds per rush

Week 2 AJ Hawk plays 71 of 71 Defensive plays.....NY Jets 142yds rushing.
avrg. - 3.83 yds per rush

coincidence 🤔

I think not!!!! [grin1]

I think when Dom said he went to the base 3-4 early in the 2nd quarter, it meant the same 11 stayed on the field.

They quit with all the substitutions.

Where and how the OLB's lined up didn't change the fact that they had their base 3-4 players in the game.

He's the ONE LB who could be depended on every play, every game, if needed since 2010.
(he sat 2 games in 2011 but could have played)(15-1 season).

As far as bad ass LBr's, that's what Mathews and Peppers are on the field for, especially playing a 3-4.

The 3-4, if working correctly is designed for the OLB's to make most of the impact plays.

Someone has to be the Defensive QB, that was Jones's job this year until the inevitable happened and once again AJ Hawk is called upon to pick up the slack.

This game is won and lost in the trenches. (Wade, my 50th reference?)

Bring heat upon the QB, keep the heat off your QB. You do that in the draft, you do that in free agency. You live that. Other positions and priorities can absorb the priorities.

Ted tries to do it in the draft. Fair enough. Multiple busts. He could and should have tried to compensate for those busts by going to free agency.

No.

Offensive line draft- multiple injuries. Free agency pick-ups?

No.

Geezer Saturday and -show me as a Packer, doesn't seem to give a shit Peppers notwithstanding- don't think it would have been hard at all for Ted to look at what the Seahawks and 49ers were doing the last couple of years and at least consider keeping some pace by emulating them some...

No.

I'm getting a little tired of getting my ass totally beat by the premier teams in this conference. It's my ass, as I have one share of stock, lol

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?
