Could fan expectations be any lower for the Packers opening round playoff game at Philly? When that’s the “positive” takeaway after the ugly Chicago loss, it says something. I’ve found dental surgery more enjoyable than watching that game. As uneven, … Continue reading →

That should be the Packers motto this week, in, out, nobody gets hurt. The outcome of this is essentially meaningless. No matter where the Packers go in the playoffs, Philly, Tampa Bay or Los Angeles, it will be tough. I … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers have taken care of business all year, beating every team they should beat. They were gifted wins when injuries to their opponents were crippling, but they accepted them with open arms. I still can’t point to … Continue reading →

The Packers are a different team when they take an early lead. There’s something about the offense asserting itself that gives the defense and the whole team a swagger. This “momentum grabbing,” cuts both ways. Against Seattle and Miami, the … Continue reading →

It started with head coach Matt LaFleur getting into a fight with a Detroit Lions fan on the field and ended with another fourth quarter defensive meltdown. And with a 34-31 loss to the Lions the Packers playoff hopes are … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers are on a roll and still entertain hopes of winning the NFC North Division. To have any hope of doing so they will need to beat the Detroit Lions tomorrow night. While I would love to … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers aren’t a lock to make the playoffs. But it’s pretty close. If they can finish 3-3 or maybe even 2-4 they should get a wild card. The division is not out of reach, but it looks … Continue reading →

NFL lines can vary from game to game. As a result, it’s critical to analyze them to get the best possible value. However, without experience in analysis, it can be challenging to look for the correct details. Our guide gives … Continue reading →

Like boxing has “matchups makes fights,” the NFL has “it’s not who you play, it’s when you play them.” The Green Bay Packers have a bad matchup on Sunday, but thanks to injuries, they are a 5.5 point favorite over … Continue reading →

If the Green Bay Packers hope to go on the kind of run they went on last year, the offense needs to take off. Penalties and drops were better against the Bears, but the red-zone offense is still too inefficient. … Continue reading →

It was a game of strange contrasts. Jared Goff threw for 145 yards, while Jordan Love had 273. The vaunted Detroit running game had 138-yards, roughly equal to the Green Bay ground game. The Packers defense gave up only 17-points … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions battle for first place in the NFC North Sunday in what is looking to be a wet Lambeau Field. The Lions have won five in a row and the Packers four in a … Continue reading →

Contrast the play back-up Packers RB Chris Brooks made late in the Jacksonville game, with Tyrique Stevenson’s play at the end of the Chicago-Washington game. They’re two huge plays that impacted the outcome. One is full of smarts and poise … Continue reading →

Young talent is bubbling up all over the Green Bay Packers roster. Rookie defenders Edgerrin Cooper, Evan Williams and Javon Bullard are playing meaningful snaps and making weekly impacts. Similarly, on offense, rookie Jordan Morgan is good enough to be … Continue reading →

So, the Packers’ place-kicking problem is real. Similarly concerning, are big name, well paid, pass rushers were invisible Sunday. Beating a good team on a roll with so many drops on offense and defense combined with penalties and rusty-sloppy QB … Continue reading →

It appears we have a talented, young, competent back-up quarterback. That’s great news. It’s possible that an even bigger development came from the surprising two-game win streak. Coach Matt La Fleur can call, and his offensive line and running backs … Continue reading →

I hated the play calling at the end of first half. As a fan, I’m greedy when things appear to be going well. Thankfully, Matt La Fleur oversaw the game plan and not me or other fans. Masterpiece There’s no … Continue reading →

The Green Bay Packers face a tall task today in Lambeau Field. They must keep their season from spiraling away by beating the Indianapolis Colts. And they must do it without Jordan Love. In a game the Packers would have … Continue reading →

Now, they need to be perfect. No, not literally perfect. The Green Bay Packers margin for error evaporated with Jordan Love’s injury, so the rest of the team has a big talent gap to fill. The Packers can’t leave 15+ … Continue reading →

We can sweat the details of roster cuts and practice squad juggling. Something we’re not talking about this week is our starting tackles. Two of the lowest profile, highest impact moves, that affect the Packers chances are the draft selections … Continue reading →

I thought this would be done by now. The experts and beat reporters seemed to think it would be done by now. With each additional day, Jordan Love not practicing becomes a smidge more distracting. Understandable If I were Jordan … Continue reading →

In the darkness of the offseason, with training camp almost a month away, let’s take a nightmare walk down memory lane. This is my take on the Packers worst 1st round draft picks since 1980. It’s good fodder for debate, … Continue reading →
