Ballz is going to be the next President of the Packers.
Nobody likes you.
Why is ABM on the sidelines and why did he grow some hair?
Not Balls, he's already 62 so not enough years left before 70.
If it's someone internal, I'd bet Ed Policy.
Packers are ranked 6th in the NFL in total defense (yards allowed/game), their highest since Week 5 of 2018 when they were 4th (they finished 18th). Their highest last year was 7th in Week 16 (finished 9th): Here are the defensive snap counts from Sundayâs win over the Steelers.
While total yardage stat looks good...we are still 19th in points allowed. This is mainly due to the fact that opponents are 11 for 11 in scoring TDs in the Red Zone. Never really understood why the rank is based yards rather than points .... after all, isn't the goal of defense to stop the other team from scoring? Our offense is complete opposite. 25th in yards but 14 in scoring.
Yeah, that red zone stat is truly troubling. Not sure why that is.
@DH13 posted:When we were all grinding through all this FO/coaching staff/roster cluster last year, I posted several times "what if division championships and sled hills were the only goals". I was kind of kidding and trying to sound clever. But that shit is starting to sink in. And honestly, when it comes to the general fan base, they may just be reading the room.
Well, yeah. It has a very âCubsâ vibe.
Packer defense also ranks 29th in allowing third down conversions. Reasons for some optimism but they've got a ways to go.
Thinking about the Smith acquisition, which seems kind of "un Packer like", adding to a position where the two starters have played well. We have played pretty well vs. the run playing 3 interior d-lineman on early downs. Could staff be thinking that it is just a matter of time (vs. better QBs) before when offenses see us in that personnel grouping, they are going to automatically pass? If so do you combat it by playing 2 interior lineman, but 3 LBers, instead of 5 DBs, which leaves you vulnerable to the run.
I'm fine with that because it would be getting your best players on the field. I can say with certainty that Dean Lowry and Tyler Lancaster do not crack the top 11 list of best players.
As a team, the Packers have gone from the low 20s to start the season up to 11th in Pass Rush Win Rate.

10th in Run Stop Win Rate.
This front is playing well.
I doff my cap to Matt Foley.
As in Foley Catheter? No wonder their piss has to be hot! Not sure about the cap. https://www.drugs.com/cg/how-t...ze-yourself-man.html
God bless people that have to use catheters.
Anytime one was required as a part of a hospital procedure, I detested them.

Beginning to look like MLF was right and the unimpressive resume didn't matter.
So far so good.
I was one of his detractors.... Glad I was wrong... This D played their a$$ off yesterday..
Appear to be playing faster, more physical and swarming to the football with much improved tackling. Hell of a game from Krys Barnes yesterday.
Yeah, I was in wait and see mode with his hire. Seems to be doing a great job so far, even with the injuries.
Heck, he's even got Kevin King playing aggressively .... he was PFF's highest rated defensive player for us yesterday (I know he dropped the Int)
You mean we might have had decent talant all along but the coaching makes a difference? Revelation!
I've been beating the coaching drum for a long time...
I'd like to know what ABM's defense would have looked like with Campbell at ILB.
Don't want to actually FIND OUT but it would be interesting.
No, ABM would have put Campbell in a "wait until it comes to you" mode. I really would not want to see that...
That was never the defense he ran with the Jets and Ravens. It was all about attacking LBs.

I had a ruptured appendix in August and had emergency surgery. I woke up with nurse ratchet taking care if me. She told me if I did not pee 16 oz in 4 hours she was putting a catheter in me. My mission for the next 3 hours was peeing . It took a while but that bitch did not win. That gal missed her calling or time in life. She should have grown up in ww2 working for hitler.
Not bad considering week 1.
Cue the eeyore saying it's not that good because of teams on the schedule.
Hold Seachocks to 20 or less, Packers win.
If 12 can go it's a W. This team is going to win the SB unless there's a huge run on injuries. I have that feeling.
It's not that good because of teams on the schedule.
Especially impressive considering the red zone issues they had earlier.
Our Defense has been a bright spot, the past few weeks. I gotta give Barry credit for turning the Defense around, especially after calling for his head, earlier in the season.

People beginning to notice......
I was very critical of the Joe Barry hire.
Did not like that he was a 2-time failure.
Did not like that his track record screamed nepotism more than achievement.
Did not like that Brandon Staley didn't hire him as DC when he took over the Chargers.
Did not like that he was the 2nd choice behind Jim Leohnard (who has done another outstanding job at UW this season).
I WAS WRONG.
The D is sooooooooo much better ... both SCHEMATICALLY and ENERGY-WISE than it has been for over a decade now.
Congratulations Joe Barry.
Kudos to Joe. Shutting out any team in the nfl is an accomplishment. Great job
Count me in on I was wrong about Joe Barry
