Well, the GB running game isn’t really in the hands of Kuhn, Green, etc – it’s in the hands of McCarthy, and he isn’t much for running. Reportedly the OLine was not happy at all that he called seven straight passes to start the 2nd half. Belicek found a way to get the NE offense going again; wish I was as confident that McCarthy will get GB’s tires re-inflated.

first of all how many drives have ended now because if drops? Finley leads the league the last 2 year’s in drops, can we please drop him already? I’d be perfectly happy to see a 6 win season, maybe then we could get some help on defense and o-line in the draft. its getting pretty sad how abused the defense is.

I live in Wisconsin, so just about every commercial break I get to see someone from the Packers injured/inactive list.

Perhaps the Packers are missing Joe Philbin the most. Seems like all they want to do, is go for the 20+ passing gains. Where they have their most success at mixing up the short and long gains.

Not completely worried yet. 15-1 last year and knocked out in divisional round. 10-6 in 2010 and won Super Bowl. It’s all about who peaks at the right time. I think they are playing super sloppy football right now. But if they can hold it to 6 losses this season they will be in okay shape at least for a wild card spot. I hate to admit but I think Chicago will win the division. Minnesota is a fluke that will die hard real soon. GO PACKERS!

Nice to see Packers fans whining about the officiating. Hilarious! Thank goodness there aren’t any tall buildings in GB. Ahhhhhhahaha!

Here’s the irony. All I hear is how these pass rushers of Texas, Detroit, Chicago and the Colts are going to eat Rogers up.
Never hear how any of the Packer rushers will do the same. Why. They HAVE NONE! Mathews is playing rusher and not linebacker so there are plenty of openings up the middle for first down passes to the tight ends. The Place Mathews should be playing to prevent that.
This Packer team is a joke. If someone said they will not win another game this year I for one will not argue the point. No running game, passing game, defense, kicking or special teams. Just what do they have that people think is special??????????????

maybe less options for this offense will be good for Aaron.

He throws for 40TDs when they have no backfield,, struggle when they add the run game.
—————————–
Apparently you did not see the second half of yesterday’s game or the second half of the game against Seattle. The threat of a running game makes any qb more effective in passing.

Karma. Blame it all on big mouth Woodson. Who also is now queen of holding / interference – called or uncalled.

I’m a Packers fan and the simple fact is we will be this bad until we show some intensity. We LOST to the gmen in the playoffs just like we LOST to the 49ers, Seahawks, and Colts. Despite the horrible call by the re-refs at the end of the hawks game it shouldn’t have been that close I hate the way we’re playing right now.

This is the worst possible news for the Packers. Our offensive line is utter garbage. With no respectable run game, Houston is going to eat Rodgers alive. I’ll be shocked if he manages to leave the game in one piece. Watt, Reed and Cush are probably licking their chops already.

Did one of our players walk underneath a ladder this off season?

Shields plays perfect coverage – gets shoved – either gets called PI (on him) or not called at all…

Nick Perry gets a sack – Penalized for flexing his muscles – penalized for “Helmet to helmet” (even thou he hit Luck in the chest/ribs area) …

The fail mary … now all these injuries.
smh… suppose it’s better to overcome adversity and toughen up early in the season than to breeze by and peak early. idk

Cobb is not Harvin. Harvin is pretty unique. Cobb is built more like a wideout. Percy is a blend between slot receiver/tail-back/small tight end.

Cobb might be faster than Harvin, but I think he’d get killed if they used him like they do Harvin.

But they definitely SHOULD use him more…

Thankfully, I am not a Packer fan, but fo those who are, please tell me this. Why doesn’t Green Bay utilize Randall Cobb like the Saints do Darren Sproles, or the Vikings do Percy Harvin? Why are they putting their chips on something called John Kuhn and some other washed out RB’s? Why not put it into a playmaker’s hands!?

WOW! Without Cedric Benson’s 38 yards rushing what will the Packer’s offense do? This will force Aaron Roger’s to pass at least two or three more times to make up those lost yards…. Yikes!

back to being a one dimensional offense which worked out great in the second half yesterday! MM cause use alex green out of the back field and hand the ball off too, but, we all know he wont. Rodgers get ready to throw 60 passes

Keep Benson away from boats otherwise he may be punching other guys out on his off week.

Somehow I don’t think this will make a difference. Houston is the best team in football and the packers have not looked like a good team since that loss to the G-Men in the playoffs. Houston walks away with this one.

we dont even need a “good” running back..an average one will do just fine. can we just get an average running back? can we trade one of our 50 WR’s for an average running back? Beuller….anyone….anyone? The window is closing quickly
