Screen Play Stats · PACKERSHOME

Does anybody know how to get stats for only Packers screen plays? I am curious to see what the average result is when we run the screen. I repeatedly hear announcers say that we "are a great screen team", or "that's why they are so successful with the screen". If somebody asked me I would say that we are not good at the screen, but I don't have anything to back it up.

Stats masters?

I'll try to pull that up. To be honest I think a lot of announcers are concussed fmor their playing days and remember the Packers of old. We seem to have flashed of success with the screens, but can't imagine we are on top of the pedastal of screen passes. Will be a curious stat to analyze. Thanks for the stat challenge.

Would have to dig to pull which plays where the screens, but since we only have run 3 that I can recall in two weeks, shouldn't be to hard.

The team hasn't been good at screens for some time. Don't think we have been very successful with them since McCarthy took over. Not sure but I think it has something to do with the Oline. They haven't seemed to be able to get out and get the blocks needed. I think the screen went with Wahle and Rivera.

Those guards need to start the mower and get down the line for those nice screen plays. And we definitely aren't going to pull Clifton with a TE down blocking. The few screens we have success on are probably because the defense is shocked to see our lineman trying to get out to the edges, lol.

I'm not just talking about this year. The last time I remember the Pack actually being good at screens was the mid to late 90's. I agree that the announcers are remembering an older Packers team, which says two things: One, it's a shame they don't have anything recent to remember, and two, the announcers need to research the teams more before opening their damn mouths.

I think we telegraph them now. With the blocking these days, if a lineman moves sideways it is either a run the direction they are moving or a screen. don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out.

We were very good with screens in the early 00s as well with Ahman Green.

Don't screen passes need effective blocking? I think they also take time to develop. You need to lure in one side of the defense (ideally due to a blitz) and then throw it behind them when they are in the backfield.

Our O-line certainly has the ability to let the Defense in our backfield but they do it on both sides which is not very safe for our QB.

beast (18h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (18h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (20h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (20h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (20h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (20h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (21h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (21h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (21h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (21h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (21h) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (21h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (21h) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (21h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (21h) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (21h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (21h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (21h) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (21h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (21h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (22h) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (22h) : This might be the kill shot here
