I know he had a wrist injury and maybe was worse off from the concussion, but where is he during the game? If he is that bad that they are avoiding throwing to him, then he needs to be off the field. I don't think that is the case though.

We need to get him the ball, and it seems to me like MM has him running deep routes all the time when we have an OLine that can't give Rodgers 3 seconds to throw. Driver is getting the ball because he is still doing the dirty work he always had. I would like to see Jennings back to running some short stuff. He isn't the only guy that can go deep. Keep Driver and Jennings short, with Jordy and Jones deep. That will keep the extra coverage short and possibly open the long ball for the others, while also getting Jennings back into the mix.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Odds are Jennings is seeing some extra coverage. It isn't like we had trouble moving the ball through the air yesterday. If they want to take Jennings away then fine because we have Driver/Finley/Jordy/ and James Jones.

I am sure they are doubling him, but he has all but disappeared. While Jennings was coming up, he was a beast but Driver still showed up when he was getting doubled.

Jennings needs to find a way to beat the doubles and get open, or they need to change his routes to make doubling more of a risk.

He got paid this last offseason didn't he? ;)

Seriously though.. Jennings is a glider more so than a sit down receiver, with the protection issues Greg is becoming a after thought more so than a primary target..

Call it is trickle down effect.. it is why most consistently competitive teams build from the line out.. we have holes on our roster.. most notably on the offensive line at the moment.

Off topic , but I am pleasantly surprised by the play of Wynn on the defensive line.. gives us a little more depth than appeared to be in July.

Jennings is making it impossible for me to continue to argue he's a top 10, that's what's up.

And I've noticed he's doing a lot of whining after plays this year. I don't recall it that much the last couple years. It's getting annoying. Shut up and play.

I think I would be pretty pissed too if my QB couldn't get me the ball because of a non-existant o-line

It all comes down to the oline.

No run game to respect.
No reason to rush more than 4 to get pressure on passing downs.

This allows apposing defenses to sit back and play coverage, take Jennings out of the game. Not to mention Jennings is more of a deep threat than he is a possession receiver, and with no time to throw the plays simply do not develop.

Fitzgerald would look bad playing with these scrubs.

Fan Shout
packerfanoutwest (2h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
Zero2Cool (3h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat
wpr (3h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
wpr (3h) : now 3
Zero2Cool (4h) : Who? What?
beast (13h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (17h) : meh
Zero2Cool (21h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (21h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (21h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
