He had a couple bad years in Chicago and has never been able to shake that percpetion. If you’ve watched him with your own eyes, you have watched the definition of a solid running back in a league filled with crap.

This team needs to use Green as the feature back, he is the only back on this roster capable of breaking a long run. IF the line can open enough holes for him to go through he can give the Pack a legit threat on the ground.

It was just a matter of time before one thing or another led to him being a spectator on the sidelines.

Of course, the Pack needed him to help them not be so one-dimensional, but honestly, it really doesn’t matter now – the Bears have already surpassed them in all 3 phases of the game.
Yup, even in offense.

And in record.

(As have the Vikings).

And judging by comparable schedules over the next several weeks, I don’t see the current divisional positioning changing any time soon.

The way things are headed, Packers better just hope they can beat out the Lions for third place.

Guy can’t remember the plays and his assignments. Green gives them their best chance; at least he’s shown the ability to be explosive.

Time for the youngsters to step up and time to turn this season around. Warriors believe.

I agree, Carl. If the Pack can take a lesson from your beloved Vikes, maybe they can turn it around. Team, team, team.

Ced has done a good job but Starks has his ability if he can just get his timing down. Green Bay has to run the ball and start taking what defenses are giving them in the passing game instead of trying to force the explosion plays when they just aren’t there.
The Pack’s inability to convert third downs is killing what should be an improved defense.
