Monday Night Packer?

Mighty Nice Person?

My Niggah.....Please

Wait, can he use that word? Ah nevermind. I see you spelled it with ah instead of a er.

See?? It's ok!

The beauty of drafting former baseball and bassetball players is that they don't have a lot of wear and tear on their bodies like the guys who played 10 years of ootball before reaching the NFL

 

They also don't have many concussions compared to their ootball-playing teammates

And they don'thave bad habits that have to be broken down and re-taught

 

Whitt gets fresh bodies, fresh brains and top talent to mold as he sees fit

Two years ago I couldn't even spell ootball, now I am one.

 

 

I think the big key is the effect on heightened ball skills.  Then, with the players we've added, they are mostly 2 years experience or less, except Blake. (Randall and Gunter two years, Rollins one). Those bad habits you mentioned may be the biggest factor with drafting players with less experience. I think the work to unlearn those may be understated. So true. 

 

Rollins is is going to be a very good player for us in GB. You can see he is a natural talent. 

@ByRyanWood: Joe Whitt Jr. says Quinten Rollins "very similar" to Casey Hayward. Said Rollins has best instincts of young CB group, needs experience.

Q is willing to stick his nose in there tackling, too, if his highlight reels are any evidence. A lot more physical than Hayward. I suspect he'll be the biggest steal of this Packer draft class.

Has to learn to cover in the NFL.  If he makes a contribution like Hayward did his first year it would be huge but he needs some learnin'.  

 

Packers rookie Quinten Rollins impressive against Patriots

A glowing assessment of Rollins by McGinn. Agree with Bob that he appears to have the potential to be a special player and the team needs to get him on the field as a starter sooner rather than later.

The hit Q threw down on that RB in the flat was spectacular! This kid knows how to play and he is tough.

 

We have some insane talent with the additions of Randall, Rollins and Gunter. Hayward has to be a little nervous. Good. He's in a contract year, and Ted being able to add 3 CBs this talented has to be pretty pleased.

 

I am looking forward to seeing Rollins develop further and compete. Should be fun. Joe Whitt has to be pretty happy too, to have this kind of talent to work with.

 

Based on what I've seen, I disagree with McGinn on Randall v. Rollins. I think Randall has performed even better than Rollins in practices. They are about as close as can be, and it is pretty cool to see that much talent ready to jump in at CB, along with the surprising Gunter, who just keeps making big plays.

 

This secondary will make a ton of picks this year.

This whole rookie class has been amazing, so far. Of course, we will see what it looks like in 2 years.

I still think Hayward is an excellent slot DB. In a perfect world, Rollins/Randall continue to flash so well that they can man the outside with Hayward moving back inside. That configuration would have the most upside from that group

Vote for Quinten Rollins for Rookie of the Week

Vote early and often. 

In that link, they have Rawls (SEA) listed with GB.  

 

It's not easy to get a "Q" into the ring of honor...extra motivation.

Awesome play. I expect to see many more like that from him. He's that good. Great work by Datone Jones too forcing the throw. I love this from Q:

On the Packers’ first two defensive series, when coordinator Dom Capers went to the nickel group, first-round pick Damarious Randall came off the bench and lined up outside opposite Sam Shields, with Casey Hayward moving inside to the slot. But on their third series, Rollins was inserted in the slot position, keeping Hayward outside, and he immediately made an impact, snaring an errant Foles throw and returning it 45 yards for a touchdown.

 

“Green grass. A lot of green grass,” Rollins replied when asked what he saw on the touchdown. “We were in one of our quarters call. Two went out, three came to me from the other side, and I just made a break on the ball. It was a pick-six from there. It’s just a blessing that I finally got my opportunity to make a play. Looking forward to next week.”

 

More important, Rollins showed some resilience later in the game. After allowing Bailey to get behind him on the 68-yard gain, he came back three plays later to dash whatever hopes the Rams had of a miracle late comeback by picking off Foles again, this time on a pass intended for Tavon Austin.

 

“Honestly, it just makes me that much hungrier to just keep in tune and to get better, whether it’s on special teams, whether it’s on defense, no matter what it is,” said Rollins, whose playing time had been limited in the first four games. “Obviously, it helps your confidence. Even if you’re a confident person already, it just adds that much more to it and allows you to play a little looser.”

Sounds like he supplanted Randall in the dime.

Other than Shields, looks like Dom and Whitt are giving CBs reps both outside and in slot. Smart. Never know what the next man up is going to be asked to do.

Fresh legs. Lots of depth/hybrids on the D so lots of rotations on the DL, at LB, and the DBs. 19 games is a long season.

 

 

I just want both of them to be ready to play 19 or more games.

I doubt Ro supplanted Ra in the dime.  Randall's been playing too well.  Probably based more on the D calls and the type of receivers they're trying to match up against.  More boundary WR = Randall, more slot WR = Rollins?

Anyone see how/why that 69 yard play happened?  Did Rollins just blow it, or was it something else?  

 

I was a little disappointed in Rollins' Lambeau leap.  I would have expected a better vertical for a point guard.  

More pick 6's. Need More practice at Lambeau Leap

he did get beat off the line but it was a really nice pass too.

Its not like he blew his coverage or anything, he just wasn't in a position to contest the catch, it happens.
