The Packers went three and out on their first possession against the Saints. They did hold the Saints the first time, though, then scored to take a 7-0 lead.

I hate it that we always receive first. And I've never liked the scripted plays. Even in the Holmgren era, those first 15 plays were often the worst part of the game for the offense.

The scripted first 15 is to gauge how the defense reacts to them and allegedly is supposed to give the coaching staff an idea of what works and what won't.

Not saying you didn't know that, just putting it out there. I don't mind the scripted plays too much, unless its a bullheaded script where if you have 3rd and 26 and we do a run instead of a deep pass. Then I don't' like it.
