Eric Stokes should start for the Packers ahead of Kevin King in Week 2. First-round pick Eric Stokes didn't get too many opportunities on defense in his Green Bay Packers debut, but that should change next week against the Detroit Lions. According to Evan "Tex' Western of Acme Packing Company, Stokes only played on eight

We've seen what King can do and it isn't enough. I wasn't against bringing him back on a one year prove it deal but I didn't think they'd lean on him yesterday like they did.

I agree that King needs to be benched but would rather let Stokes develop before risking injury or making him a head case.

Well see if week 1 was just a lot of rust and arrogance or a sign that the Packers have a more serious problem soon enough. Even more reason to let Stokes and Love develop if this year is a bust.

King struggles against elite quickness and elite speed. But if Stokes was playing better I think they'd have him on the field.

Also based on what the DB coach said, we'll probably see both King and Stokes on the field at the same time when the game plan calls for Alexander to be in the slot. So it's not just King over Stokes it's also Sullivan, at least if you assume Alexander can play the anywhere fairly well.

As far as the Lions next week, the game plan will be stopping the run and TE Hockenson... though the Lions did ha e 3 WRs about 50% of the time, but I'm thinking they keep Alexander on the outside and go with a Safety or Sullivan again.

beast (29m) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
Zero2Cool (1h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
Zero2Cool (1h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
dfosterf (2h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
dfosterf (2h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
Zero2Cool (2h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
Zero2Cool (2h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷
Zero2Cool (2h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before
dfosterf (2h) : Hats off to the Beast
dfosterf (2h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season
beast (3h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games
Zero2Cool (3h) : BTW, not serious.
Zero2Cool (3h) : You don't care about it either!!!!
Zero2Cool (3h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.
Mucky Tundra (8h) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (12h) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (12h) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
Zero2Cool (20h) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
Mucky Tundra (20h) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
Mucky Tundra (20h) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision
beast (22h) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it
Zero2Cool (23h) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan
beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan
Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed
beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
