Game 16: Packers @ Lions - Sunday, December 29, Noon

[adambr2]

Rogers is definitely a positive. The Packers have a mediocre offense, an average defense, and awful special teams. Despite all that they are 12 and three. Probably because they never turn the ball over, and that's almost entirely because Rogers never throws interceptions

 

Taking care of the ball isn't a good enough thing to hang your hat on if you expect to beat playoff teams. You have to make more throws than you're missing at some point.

[adambr2]

I can't think of a single instance this season where a presnap timeout on 3rd or 4th down actually led to a conversion following.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

TD-saving PI there by Alexander there. Hate to see him get beat, but probably a smart play.

[PinaMadness]

Wow, Jaire was burnt toast.

[adambr2]

Blough is blowing Rodgers out of the water on his deep throws today.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow, Jaire was burnt toast.

 

Yep, he made a smart play. Blitz has to get home.

[adambr2]

These guys have got to tackle. These should be negative plays that end up going for 3 or 4 add up.

[adambr2]

Did the Smith brothers get to bed before 3 am last night? For as much as they were a positive impact last week, they've done nothing today.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Wow does Prater have a leg. That would have been good from 70.

[yourout]

Pass rush has been non existent.

[adambr2]

Was no doubt about that one. Prater drilling from 56 like it's nothing and Crosby blowing it from 51 is a huge swing in this game.

[yourout]

Detroit kickers NEVER miss against the Packers.

Rodgers isn't playing great but he's done a bit more than just that. He deserves a lot of criticism but there's a lot he's doing that's not in a box score and not appreciated because we don't have somebody a lot worse. Like Brett Hundley. To say he's not a positive is a stretch. I think we're all just sick of the offense and the bigger issue to me is that it never seemed to evolve as the season went on.

 

I think Rodgers has not been the guy of old, but these receivers suck. Even Adams is not a real threat down the field, he's just not that guy and nobody has stepped up.

[adambr2]

That penalty on Preston was huge. They don't try that FG from 61.

[adambr2]

Another gem of a deep ball from Aaron.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Don't like going straight 5-wide with 11 minutes left.

[yourout]

What a pathetic series

[yourout]

Bad punt.

I agree. But I disagree with the assertion that he is a net negative

[OldSchoolSnapper]

That pass to Tonyan was a lot worse than the deep ball.

Yeah he needs help. But Rodgers has been absolutely terrible. Which is a shame because he's gotten tremendous play from his offensive line today and is facing a very beatable secondary.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

What a pathetic series

 

Terrible. The only thing they got going on offense is the threat of Jones back there, and you pull him and go shotgun? Woof.

[yourout]

Lions can put it away right here.

[adambr2]

Another terrible series from this offense. Not getting that TD to tie it at 17 may be the last momentum swing in the game.

[yourout]

This might be top 5 worst games of Rodgers career.
