It’s Titans Week

Shoulda let him try the 55yd FG....MLF!

Could have really cemented his confidence plus won the game on the kick

Having him miss a third FG would have done wonders for his confidence.

Boris probably just wants Narveson to miss enough FGs that they'll bring Anders Carlson back. 

I am seriously am considering making the 4 hour trip down to Nashville for this game if I can pull it off. 

As for the Titans this is one team I know absolutely nothing about them.  I guess they play some decent defense but struggle on offense at times.  They do have Tony Pollard at RB so I do worry that they will be able to run the ball on the Packers defense.

"Matt LaFleur says #Packers will remain "pretty patient" with Brayden Narveson despite missed kick each of the past two weeks."

They almost have to stay patient. They did so for Carlson. Besides, who else is available for them?

After two weeks, the Packers are…

- 5th in yards per game (398.5)
- 1st in rushing yards per game (212.0)
- T-2nd in rushing yards per attempt (5.7)
- 1st in defensive INTs (5)
- 2nd in turnover differential (+5)
- 4th in opponent third-down conversion percentage (26.09)

And 1-1. That's all that matters.

Then why in TF didn't you let him try the 55 yarder to ice the game?!?! The opposing QB can throw the ball 70 yards anyway even if he misses the kick.

🖕🏼🤬🖕🏼 MLF

There are times to gamble and times to play conservative. IMO MLF went WAYYYY too conservative in the 2nd half and especially end of the game.

The #Packers placed MarShawn Lloyd on IR.

They've signed RB Chris Brooks to the active roster.

Hopefully Lloyd can shake the injury bug and be an impact guy by Halloween(ish). He’s had a few injuries now and the  kid needs to get healthy.

One more week of Willis. Get Love close to 100% for the Vikes!

The Titans supposedly have a tough defense this year. But they've played the Bears and Jets, not exactly offensive juggernauts allowing 24 points to each.

Their offense and special teams are highly suspect.

I think the Pack has a great chance of winning this one even with Willis at QB.

The Titans offense has looked fairly weak and inept. Levis appears to be in a regression.

They were awful vs the Bores in their opener. 2 sacks, 2 INTs, a lost fumble, and a blocked punt returned for a TD.
They were better vs the Jets, but still gave up 4 sacks, an INT, another lost fumble, another blocked punt.

It looks like they are fairly stiff on defense, however. They defend the run very well, and aren't giving up many passing yards, but they aren't generating a lot of sacks and have 0 INTs.

Some scoring opportunities should be available for the Packers. Just have to play better in the RZ, score TDs, not FGs, and not turn the ball over (looking at you, JJ).

levis is bad - so that is good.  the titans defense is name brand...they have good players on all levels, but levis...he bad.

It'll be interesting to see how MLF schemes this. The Titans know what Willis can and cannot do. Hopefully Willis knows what a few of the Titan defenders can and cannot do. It's a good week to develop a chip and not just be happy to be here.

#10 back practicing today per multiple reports on X!

He' s wearing some type of protective sleeve on the injured leg. Which I think is better news than if he had some type of metal brace on.

From other pics posted online it appears there is some sort of brace on, on the knee underneath the sleeve

My guess is it's Willis again on Sunday.

This creates a huge pain in the ass for The Titans. Because now it's like, ok, who do you prepare for?

Is this a gamesman ship thing to confuse the Titans or does he actually play?

FWIW, Demovsky said on Friday he was told by sources Love was "close" to playing last week and his questionable status was not bullshit.

And QB's like Burrow and others have also sustained grade 1-2 MCL strains and were back missing 1 game or less.

no way willis is playing if JL is practicing. Willis needs all the reps he can get and as conservative as the Packers Drs are, there is no way he is practicing unless he has the green light.

It’s early in the week.  Suspect the docs/trainers will want to see how 10’s knee reacts, I’d guess unless he’s over 85% that Willis will get a good share of practice reps

Jordan Love on his availability Sunday: “I’m going to take the week and just take it day by day and see how it feels. I’m not going to make any decisions right now. I’m hopeful that I can get to that point where I can get in there, but we’re just going to take it day by day.”

Now tell me what I want???  A CRUSHING.    GBP 28. -  Titans. 17.   ♥️ 💚 💛

I'd be happy with 9-2.

Jordan Love was back at practice for the Packers today, will he play in week 3? @profootballdoc shares his latest analysis. #gopackgo

Unfortunately or otherwise, I think the game plan this week will roughly be the same as what we've seen the first couple of weeks.

Levis may not be the same threat that Hurts or Richardson can deliver, but he's still a threat. So I expect a plan to contain/keep him in the pocket, hope the pass rush gets home, and look for the TO opportunities.

Why not start Willis?   Get a lead, keep playing well rushing the ball and get Jordan another week  to heal.  Best of both worlds.

What happens if they can't successfully run the ball?

They're giving up an average of 92.5 rush yards/game, ranked 10th best.

Jacobs should have that covered by the end of the1st quarter.

What happens if you ever think positive?

From Packers.com: "Love is currently practicing with a sleeve on his left leg over top of a brace on his left knee, an instrument he wore on his right knee in college when he had a meniscus injury."

What was Love's Wonderlic score?  He thinks sleeves are for legs?

It's all good. He was wearing this shirt underneath his jersey. 

Men can wear pant tees now?
