As soon as Atlanta went press coverage across the board we struggled
Cavetoad posted:It's just such a different offense right now
You mean without 4/5ths of our offensive line from August of 2016 and our best WR? Sitton and Lang were going to cost a lot of money and they had to move on, but they could get by with some league-average guards with the quality of OTs they had. When they don't have the OTs, they don't have much.

They didn't do that until Nelson got hurt.

He's not a even close to Gronk.
Looked like the end of the 3rd surprised Rodgers.
I am surprised we didn't see more of Lance Kendricks tonite or is he hurt too? I would have thought the Pack would have used 2 TE formations more with 2 backup OTs in there.
The good news is that we have the Bengals and the Bears the next two games.

No, I meant without Jordy and our 2 starting tackles tonight.

I don't think there has been a TE in history close to Gronk. At least as both a receiver and a blocker.
Drops, penalties, turnovers, missed tackles, etc. Can't win with that kind of execution, nothing else matters.
Where's Kendricks tonight? I thought we'd see more of him.
Definitely go for it with their S down.

If we'd have been told the the defense would have held Atlanta to under 300 yards with 12 minutes left, I'd have thought we'd have been in good shape.
Well....well...well....
I understand going for 2, but I would have just done the xp myself.
I don't mean to be an Eeyore, but......haven't we got a better 2 pt. conversion play in the book?

Saving it

A better play than putting the ball in Aaron Rodgers hands and letting him do his thing? Is there a better play call?

Ya, I was wrong about that swap. Cook could still un. Bennett is just a blocker now.

I'd have said to roll Rodgers out, but maybe they don't trust the tackles on that type of call at this point.
As a side note, if any of you have the time or ability to get yourself a quality antenna to get Over The Air broadcasts, DO IT. The HD is SO much better than cable or dish compressed signals.
You can use HD Homerun to get the signal to the rest of your house without additional wires.
Cook had 38 yards receiving after the 2nd game last year. Patience

That's interesting. I'd have thought sending a signal through a cable would have better resolution than sending it through the air. Why is it better?
From the kick-off---
That is really weird. The officials weren't ready?
by Tom Silverstein 11:11 PM
And they weren't ready when Rodgers tried to go hurry-up in the first half.
F You Goodell and your old fat insurance salesmen.
That's horsesh*t effort from the ILBs. DL plugged that up. Ryan needs to stop being a tool and take off the dark visor...for a night game...in a dome.
Randall, Rollins, and our ILBs continue to remain weak links. Martinez had a sack tonight, but it seems like it's been years since one of our ILBs (other than CM3 playing out of position) made an impact play.
