That's a lot of $$ being spent on Clark and Gary. Packers need more bang for their buck.

@packerboi posted:Hafely and the D did a nice job containing a very mobile Hurts and Richardson. So we know they are capable of it.
The Packers need to continue to increase Coopers playing time and also find ways to get Evan Williams on the field. Young, speedy bucks to help contain Kyler
Richardson and Hurts are big MF...Murray is a wee-man...brings a different threat level. BUT it's the time of year where excess hits on such wee-men take their toll.
If the Packers can put some hats on him early, he may not be so inclined to run.
Haf appears to still be trying to figure out how to get the best from Quay...for every amazingly athletic play, he seems to have several "oh fuck" moments. Gotta improve that ratio.
Coop has shown some great flashes early...a lot of "experts" shit all over the pick saying the Packers reached in a bad year for LB. But from what I have seen, he may be as good as any LB the Niners have had in the last decade. He's just as athletic as Quay but doesn't do the dumb shit...and he's only a rookie.
I am still hopeful Quay can figure it out...the guy makes all kinds of crazy plays...but gets caught out of position way too often. Maybe they need to turn him into a situational guy...blitz him more, let him rely on that speed.
You will get no argument from me on E-Dub...Smartest SOB on the field...he just needs a chance...

It's tough to win 2 games in a row on the road. They were all out to beat the Niners on Sunday. Hopefully we get a few mistakes from Kyler.
Our fate lies with which Kyler will show up. I've seen him make some amazing plays, and some ugly ones as well. I'm not a Kyler Stan.
I understand that rain is predicted for the game, so this may end up being a muddy slugfest.
#Packers coach Matt LaFleur said that TE Luke Musgrave will be placed on injured reserve. He said the hope is that they would get Musgrave back at some point. He said they didn't know the extent of the injury because he had toughed it out until he couldn't go anymore.

@Boris posted:Packers need to focus on moving the sticks instead of trying to hit massive chunk plays on every offensive play set.
Lily Zhao mentioned this yesterday and I agree with her 100%
On Total Packers Larry asked what the offense had to do moving forward, MLF said he wanted more explosives. He expanded that answer to more consistent explosive plays because that correlates to scoring.
I too think it’s more about moving chains, less penalties and then the explosives will be there. 🤷♂️
@Boris posted:If that happens.....Josh Jacobs and Emmanuel Wilson could be YOOOGE
Also Connor for the Cards. We could see a lot of rushing yards for both teams.
I saw that as well about it being rainy and a cool day. I can't imagine the Cards midget QB being able to pass really well so I expect a heavy dose of the run by Connor and their QB because of the lack of consistent run stopping by the Packers defense.
You are absolutely correct that the Packers RBs have to be big in this game. Keep the Packers defense off the field as much as possible. Especially if Alexander can't go again.
Romeo Doubs will play Sunday, according to #Packers HC Matt LaFleur.

"He's done a nice job. Gone in, worked. Done a great job."
He also said Kraft will be good to go.
From packers.com:
GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed cornerback Jaire Alexander (groin) and receiver Christian Watson (ankle) among five questionable players for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
The other three listed as questionable are tackle Rasheed Walker (knee), tackle/guard Jordan Morgan (shoulder), and defensive lineman Arron Mosby (shoulder). Walker was added to the injury report Friday after being listed as limited in practice.
Defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt (ankle) has been ruled out and tight end Luke Musgrave (ankle) was placed on injured reserve, sidelining him for at least four games.
Green Bay didn't issue an injury status for the following players who are expected to be available: linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (hip), defensive lineman Kenny Clark (toe), guard/tackle Elgton Jenkins (knee), tight end Tucker Kraft (groin), offensive lineman Zach Tom (shoulder), safety Zayne Anderson (elbow),cornerback Carrington Valentine (ankle), and defensive lineman Jonathan Ford (calf/injured reserve).
The Cardinals ruled out defensive lineman Darius Robinson (calf) and receiver Zay Jones (hamstring/reserve/suspended), and listed four players questionable: tackle Kelvin Beachum (hamstring), tackle Christian Jones (ankle), kicker Matt Prater (left knee) and cornerback Garrett Williams (groin).
I gonna pray for a crushing……and Romeo catches 10 passes 5 for TD ‘s. So I’m thinking……..Arizona 18. - GBP 42 (Melton gets a TD too). ♥️ 💚 💛
This is real simple.....just like Hurts & Anthony Richardson.....seal the edges so he cannot escape and collapse the pocket forcing him to be a QB from inside the pocket. The DB's will do the rest. The Packer defense did an excellent job of that vs. the previous 2 QB's & if they do it vs. Kyler they will win again.
This is a very important NFC game for the Pack.
No CB activation would seem to bode well for Jaire playing against Arizona.
From packers.com:
The Green Bay Packers have elevated FB Andrew Beck from the practice squad to the active roster for gameday. General Manager Brian Gutekunst announced the transaction Saturday.
