I don't know that Lacy has ever been convicted of a traffic violation. Criminal might be going a little too far. Coming from you as well. Shameful.
Also, can I get a ruling on using the quote function when the thread rolls to a new page? Is it acceptable to go back and use the quote feature?
I'll take my answer off the air and thanks.
Yes, but specific parts of the quote, not the entire post.

Done and done!

For as many times as Aaron may have audibled out of called runs, he audibled into a run. There was a series in the 2nd quarter, IIRC, where he was (apparently) calling an audible based on his pre-snap read. There was 3-4-5 consecutive plays where this happened.
The Packer offense has played against three very good defenses and failed miserably all three times.
How dare you!
Easy.
Play on the road against very good D's is and has been the determinant.
The blueprint is to have Olivia Munn reveal details about their sex life. She must be a closet Seahawks fan.
It's easy to pick on the losses & say "That's the blueprint." Honestly, it's really more about what the Packers didn't do (execute) than what the opposing defense did.
One highlight yesterday on I believe the pick to Cobb, Rodgers had Jordy WIDE open on a go route running free down the sideline. 99.9 % of the time he sees Nelson. Jordy had nothing but lawn in front of him. Would have been a very easy 7 points.
I saw that on the replay as well. Hind site. Who knows if he completes that ball anyways with the way things were going.

Lacy had the hip and they were watching his carries, but what about Starks?
I've only heard the media discuss the possibility of Lacy being on a pitch count. Regardless, Starks and Harris are there to take the carries. After the game MM said the balance could have been better and yesterday he said it was fine. Does he even know what he really believes?
Yes.

AR and the WRs being so far off has everyone out of sorts. 
I saw that green in front of Jordy on the replay, and agree that usually that is 6. Instead, AR ripped it off-target to Cobb. Who knows, given what happened later, if Jordy scores but it would have been fun to see. Heck, Jordy had the one in the end zone go through his hands as well, although that was a tougher catch with the DB in his face. We're just so used to him making those.
As for that game being Buffalo's SB, I don't buy it. It may have been Schwartz's but since Buffalo plays NE twice a year, I think they are more keen to beat Hoodie-Brady. But Buffalo did prove that GB is not where it should be if we want to win the SB.

The penalties and drops created down and distance issues that forced them out of the mixing of running into the gameplan. It wasnt a lack of commitment to the run, IMO. The drops and penalties played right into their hands.
The pass to run ratio was 2-1. Penalties and drops may have impacted the playcalling but not enough to produce that big of a disparity. It's not like MM abandoning the run too quickly isn't something he's never done in the past.
From Football Outsiders:
"For Green Bay going forward, Sunday's struggles against the Bills might not mean that much. Top-ranked passing offenses like the 1991 Washingtonians, the 1995 Cowboys, the 1998 Broncos, the 1999 Rams, and the 2006 Colts all won the Super Bowl despite struggling to varying degrees in games against the top-ranked pass defense. While great pass offenses lose a surprising number of battles to top-ranked pass defenses, those great passing teams are still the ones most likely to win the war. "
Kind of interesting that Schwartz had the blueprint to help create a defense that swept the NFC North but is in danger of being swept by the AFC West. After the big win against the Packers I think the Raiders will beat them this Sunday.
I agree with you. That young QB, Carr keeps getting better.
Orchard Park, N.Y. — He takes a seat inside the crammed visitor's locker room and breathes a deep sigh. Most players had already filed off for the team bus and the rare stench of defeat lingered.
Right guard T.J. Lang, the team's weekly voice of reason, isn't happy. The issues on offense? The problems here at Ralph Wilson Stadium? He stares ahead.
"How much time do you have?" Lang asks. True, this 21-13 loss to the Buffalo Bills was as bad as it gets for the Green Bay Packers offense. Lang drops a few disgusted F-bombs, then gives it a whirl.
"Penalties, drops," Lang begins. "We didn't make any plays. We didn't make the plays that were there for us. Obviously, a low-scoring game like that, you're going to have to take advantage every time you get the ball. Didn't do enough. Didn't make enough plays."
If this sounds familiar, it should.
Demons of December losses past returned, the haunting memories of a juggernaut offense desperately calling for roadside assistance. Hood up. Steam rising. Weird noises. And a red-in-face coach Mike McCarthy screaming at the engine in fury.
The last time shock spread like this in a locker room was, of course, Dec. 18, 2011. At Kansas City, a 13-0 Packers team threw the ball 35 times, handed it to backs 14 times, and lost to a pre-neck-beard Kyle Orton. One month later? Aaron Rodgers had 46 pass attempts, no running back carried it more than eight times, and the New York Giants suffocated an offense glistening in the team's Hall of Fame annals.
No question, Rodgers is a MVP quarterback. He might win a second award this season.
But the Bills — like the Chiefs, like the Giants then — proved Rodgers can be stopped. Unless the one in charge decides power football is OK into January, there could be a Giants-like thud coming for Green Bay, too.
Mostly invincible since Week 3, Rodgers finished with a career-high 25 incompletions (eight drops didn't help) and a career-low 34.3 passer rating.
"Drops. Tipped passes," Lang said. "Obviously, I don't know if our guys were just getting blanketed. That happens every game, but we had minimal chances to make the big play. They had a couple of them there and didn't make the play. So it's not a recipe for success."
The recipe, this day, should have been more meat and potatoes, less caviar. It should have meant following those double-wide cutback lanes behind No. 70 and No. 71. Even former offensive coordinator Joe Philbin would half-joke, half-seriously claim Green Bay should run the ball more in 2011.
The Packers have spent years trying to eliminate that "finesse" label that resurfaces each winter.
And now, they have the personnel — two mauling guards, a left tackle who added 10-plus pounds of muscle and a rookie center you wouldn't want to cross. Fullback John Kuhn picked off linebackers all day. At 32, he's playing rejuvenated. And behind them all is that bruising, spinning Eddie Lacy and healthy, knifing James Starks. The two combined for 116 yards on only 19 carries.
McCarthy appeared to have an epiphany at the end of the first quarter. On back-to-back-to-back runs, Lacy gained 15, 17 and 22 yards. The Bills were weary, woozy. This would be a grind, and these Packers (unlike past editions) have proved they can win the grind. Yet the play-caller — who knows how much is McCarthy's initial call or a Rodgers audible — didn't adjust.
Rodgers having an off day should not doom the Packers. It happens.
This is why Green Bay drafted a running back in the second round.
Afterward, Lacy wove around cameras in his bright green Incredible Hulk compression shirt. As he turned a corner, Lang extended a fist bump. They did their part. The Packers probably could win the Seahawks way — the take-names, kick-tail way up front. And.... Lacy had five second-half carries.
Three years ago, Lang was one of the several downcast players inside Arrowhead Stadium. This is a different team, he assures.
"I felt like we were doing some good things on the ground," Lang said. "Obviously had a couple nice runs that were called back for holds, but we didn't make enough plays through the air. It was rare for us as an offense. It's tough to swallow. I don't know if it was anything they were doing. Just a combination of things that ultimately led to our demise."
Lang is right. The Packers are different in 2014.
And, as he continued, the Packers need to "suck it up" these final two weeks.
"It just goes to show you that just because you're a good football team like we are," Lang said, "doesn't mean you're going to go out there and win by default. You've got to make the plays, and we didn't do that."
Drops plagued Green Bay. The special teams play was bizarre. Rodgers wasn't Rodgers.
One day later, McCarthy defended the play-calling. He only regrets "one or two" calls. Despite the cautionary tale of 2011, despite Sunday's headache, despite an offense that can now think run-first when needed, who knows if much changes next time? The Packers will find out.
Nice article, YA. Did you write it?
Sorry. Found on the internet.
