This season the packers run game has been their biggest weakness... Ryan Grant only has one 100 yard game.. and it still took him over 30 carries to get this. So what do u think the packers need to do to get the running game going? and what will they do.. if anything?

Ryan grant has not done a good job, almost failing so far.. what the should they do about him? is it time to go brandon jackson or what?
brandon jackson is amazing

I dont think they go to Brandon Jackson. Its been looking better lately. If anything, we need a new lineman or two. Not a new RB. Now on that note, i thought our O line preformed well against the colts. I had no complaints.

Our offensive line just isn't that good. They have inconsistent for 2 1/2 years now. We shouldn't be talking about pad level and fundamentals after 2 1/2 years.

I think Ted will focus on offensive linemen in next years draft. I don't think Grant is the problem, although he does go down way too easy.

I think Jackson needs to see more playing time.

Unless the O-line starts opening some holes, i don't think it matters WHO runs the ball.
I would almost go with Wynn. He's a bruiser and i think he would get some tough yards on his own.
Why not give him a shot? Not much to lose as i see it.

I think they we need to run more counter plays. I don't think I've seen too many this season and last year I noticed it quite a bit. And we were successful.


edit, get this, Ryan Grant is still on pace to hit over 1,000 yards. Woopity doo.

i like grant and in the colts game he did okay he seems to be on pace but he needs to run where they aren't having a pile up he needs better vision like barber i would say peterson but he runs up the middle to he does have to be a bulldozer

Couple things...we need to lose the ZBS in the off season and go back to the power gap scheme. I like Grant but a stout bruiser like Javon Ringer would do wonders for us maybe Ted Thompson could add a power back to his draft list.
As for the rest of the season keep pounding the rock..would have been nice to see Lumpkin healthy in the mix.

My more realistic suggestion to resurrect our running game, trick Barry Sanders into coming out of retirement.

Zero2Cool (5h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (6h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (20h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (20h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury
beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State
beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
