If it seems like we have troubles running the ball when it matters, perhaps it is because we actually DO have troubles running the ball when it matters

Our RB is great. Our Offensive line and our plan is garbage.

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Is this all 3rd down plays or just rushing plays on 3rd down? Because if it's the former, Rodgers would like to remind you of how good he is at holding on to the ball too long and getting sacked on 3rd down. He even added fumbling to the mix against the 49ers.

The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool - R. Feynman

This potential also could mean, failure on the first 2 downs setting up for a longer 3rd down potentially too

As that would lead to higher passing percentage (which we got) and higher failure percentage too (which we got). The Packers on pass plays on 3rd down is only very slightly above average in success rate.

Of course if you look at all downs and not just 3rd, Packers supposively have the 7th most successful run plays, however this stat is messured

Our RB is great. Our Offensive line and our plan is garbage.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
