Weren't we expecting the Packer offense to struggle against this defense?

Yes, but not in this fashion.  Guys are getting open, Rodgers is either not seeing it or making poor throws.

Pass pro has been decent, yet he has happy feet.  

Cobb in the backfield once or even twice a game is ok. But putting him back there 4-5 plays in a row is ridiculous. He's not large enough to really effectively pass block. And every time he runs into that pile with all those larger bodies, I get worried he's going to get hurt. That's the last thing this offense needs, losing our slot receiver.  We have two perfectly capable running backs. 

15 passes

8 runs.

That's not a balanced attack, especially when the passing game is so out of whack. McCarthy, you need to get it together. Start calling some screens. I don't know, maybe throw a pass to a tight end (remember those?) Do something. The status quo isn't working.

I wonder if Dom ever considered defending the middle of the field?

I wonder if Mike ever considered using the middle of the field?  

They're both playing hard to get, waiting for the other to make the first move.

McCarthy is the fat kid, and Capers the ugly, nerdy girl. They're standing on opposite sides of the gym, looking at each other, but nether is willing to make the move. 

Being able to run the ball would help but that's been more ineffective than the passing game. The Vikings have the Packers petrified of throwing the ball underneath to the backs and TE's. The attempt to Cook was nearly a disaster. Adams put it on the ground. So the deep tosses are likely going to continue.

The D as bad as it looked gave up 10.....should be winning with that.

 

Defense is solid on the ground, but it's often pitch and catch when QBs get a few seconds in the pocket. Needs improvement.

We expected to struggle on O, but not totally tank. AR needs to work on taking what the D will give him and stop trying for the deep ball that isn't there. The only thing working down the field is PI. We should also run a bit more and mix it up. Our O line is doing pretty well, but they are having to hold their blocks a long time before AR throws it.

The deep ball isn't working because Rodgers keeps missing the throw.

Would it kill them to get Monty or Abby some reps? 

This offense hasn't been the same since Adams became a starter. 

 

 

Adams looked good last week. That TD catch was outstanding. He's not the problem. The play calling, and Aaron's throwing the ball, are. I don't know why, because Aaron is the one guy in the league, besides Brady, that I never expected to see lost on the field. But, right now, he is, more or less. And I don't know why that is. 

I'm really surprised at the hate Dom Capers is getting. Usually he's well received here. 

I think Rodgers vegan lifestyle is throwing off his game. Someone should take care of Yoko so he can focus again.
