Green Bay Packers Thread

Wouldn’t like to see Jones go.

I think we were all expecting Bahk to go given his huge cost and minimal impact due to injuries recently, even less surprising considering how close he was to AR12, but he deserves full credit and positive memories for what he achieved with the club.

Jones stings a bit more, I understand the logic as he approaches the RB cliff face of 30 and wasn't willing to take another hit on his salary. Don't blame the guy at all, he's taken franchise friendly hits already and is probably looking at this as his last chance for a payday. He's been the heart of the team for me for a few years now, so I wish him well.

Talking head over heart, with Jacobs we have a comparably high quality RB for a similar cost with 3 fewer years on the clock. It's a good move.

Xavier McKinney is an absolute big dog in a position we really needed to address, top marks from me there.

Feeling positive about the impact. Let's see something interesting at LB, another corner and build a bit of depth on the O-Line between free agency and the draft and I'll be excited for next season.

Ya that's a harsh one. I hope he is over the hill now 🤣

Missing Cooper Dejean after the Eagles trade up a little disappointing, but Edgerrin Cooper and Javon Bullard are two absolutely cracking picks for me.

Jordan Morgan seemed a bit of a stretch yesterday but absolutely feels like a Gute type pick. Fills a need and versatile. Neither under nor overwhelmed with Morgan......totally whelmed

Very happy with the draft so far. Lots of needs being seen to. A CB would have been nice too but you can't have it all!

I didn't know that. Hopefully, he can regain his previous form. Definitely worth the punt so! Excited to see our defensive plan with ethe new DC. It surely can't be any more infuriating than the last 3 years considering the players we had and now have.

NFC North could be tough to get out of next season.

Fake drama doing the rounds on Jordan Love at the moment. Some places making out like it's a big deal that he's refusing to practice until he has a new contract.....but given that he currently has zero future guaranteed money, it absolutely makes sense that he won't put himself at risk until he has signed on the dotted line.

Expecting it to be something in the $55-57m per year region, leaning towards the latter for a bigger number than Trevor Lawrence/Joe Burrow but with less guaranteed.

Yeah…they extended Kenny Clarke lately, its just a matter of time before they reach agreement with #10.

Like to see it happen soon though….bit early for a saga!!!

Strap on the pads now J L and start earning it.

AJ Dillon showed all his old flaws after yesterdays game, as opposed to Emmanuel Wilson who was great.

Emmanuel Wilson looking tidy against the Ravens.

Well its playing 'on the concrete' from now until hopefully next year, how do folk think the Packers will pan out?

NFC North will be a dogfight to get out of in my opinion, other teams have racked up their forces considerably.

Hopefully the Brazil travel for the first game won't spook them , would have liked a couple of games under their belt before that one.

Its going to be very tough this year. The division looks like it'll be very strong and the Packers now have a target on their backs. Lat year Love started poor and teams definitely left their guards down a bit with him.

The team does look stronger this year though. Jf they make the playoffs I think they'll go all the way to the championship game.

Starting against the Eagles in Brazil isn't ideal but I don't think it'll suit the Eagles either.

Rumours of an approach for Tannehill after the Love injury, maybe not so minor after all?

Keys to a Packers win today in Lambeau.

1. the run game..will have to work
2. Playcalling… must be schemed to help Willis
3. Tackling… must improve here ..make the hits count
4. Red zone… have to be more productive…. that one will be difficult
5. General…. the 'big names' must step up ..Gary, Clarke, Jaire, etc. I am expecting a low scoring game.

Go Packers!!!

No need for panic. I hope Jacobs gets a day off! 32 carries!

I would caution of over confidence for the upcoming games.

Notice how the figures for the run game reduced a lot in the second half…….

There were two big ‘drops’ and a missed field goal by the Colts in there..

The opposition will have studied the tape and like the Colts in the second half will have taken measures.

Hopefully the Pack can be a little more expansive but in my opinion they were quite lucky to beat the Colts, given how the game panned out.
