This is as beautiful a picture as a Door County sunset

A few weeks ago, I asked you to compare and contrast today’s TOs with 2011 – Mike, thanks for bringing this up. Now, after a few weeks of good football we see what sets this defense apart from previous years; especially starting in 2011. Jeff Hafley has a lot of talent at his disposal, but now that we have a bigger sample, what do you see about him that’s really different than in the past that players really love each other?

It puts players in a position to succeed and empowers them to play fast and freely. The Packers have always had playmakers on the defensive side of the ball, but this particular group plays well together, and they’re doing all of that in the first half of Hafley’s first season in Green Bay.

Gentlemen, I haven’t seen any mention of this, but I was wondering if you are surprised by the visible frustration of opposing quarterbacks? Shaking your head, looking at the sky, throwing helmets, dropping your chin, etc. This fan seems like the confluence of personnel and scheme come together in a big way.

It’s what you want to see. For a defensive coordinator, this is a picture as beautiful as a Door County sunset: your guys playing in concert and the opposition in their frustration.

Matt LaFleur said Jordan Love’s superpower is his ability “to move on from mistakes and not dwell on them.” History shows that we must also learn from mistakes, or we are destined to repeat them. GPG! Eyes on the prize, green and gold.

The comment is more about Love’s ability to bounce back from adversity, not just an interception. Love certainly needs to protect the ball better, but the NFL is going through another change. The best QBs aren’t afraid to throw a potential INT under the right circumstances. Josh Allen (18 INTs), Jalen Hurts (15), Patrick Mahomes (14) and Tua Tagovailoa (14) rounded out the top five in interceptions last year.

I think I remember Jonathan Owens tackling Mahomes before going out of bounds and picking up a 15 yard penalty for it. I think defenders just have to tackle him, eventually he will stop skirting the line and come out.

If a QB isn’t making a “football move” to leave the field, I think it should be fair game to hit him. Otherwise, it’s a copycat league and QBs will start abusing the protections they’re given on the edge. I still maintain that Owens did nothing wrong last year against Mahomes. If you mess with the bull…

Curious, what was the average starting field position for the Texans? Between great punts and turnovers, the Texans managed to find points on a tough day.

Houston’s average starting field position was their 41st compared to Green Bay’s 22nd.

Following up on Kevin’s question in Tinton Falls, NJ about Mahomes and the fake slide, we were the benefactors of a similar play that every talker and other team’s fans hated us for: Aaron’s hard offsides Rodgers for a free. to play It took a few years, but today they seem to have slowed it down a bit. To Mike’s credit, they didn’t while Rodgers was the “face of the NFL.” perspective

I’d say the two couldn’t be more different. Rodgers manipulates the defense with his pace. It’s an art. He is not using the player safety provisions granted to the QB to his advantage. But like you said, the league adjusted and doesn’t allow nearly as many “free Jews” anymore. Let’s see how they handle the Mohammed situation.

Did anyone else notice the similarity of the Tucker Kraft TD last weekend to the Richard Rodgers TD against Dallas in the 2014 playoff game? We were in the north end zone for that one and saw how tight it was. It looked a lot like TV, two amazing pitches.

There are some parallels with how the secondary is set up, but Kraft’s catch impressed me infinitely more because Love threw that pass with his whole being. Rodgers made a big throw across his body to Richard Rodgers on this TD, but the ball wasn’t thrown with the same kind of speed. The love pass at Kraft could have taken one of my fingers off. Awesome bang-bang game.

Mason Crosby kicked his first Lambeau Field FG for the Packers in September 2007…but had to wait more than 12 years later for his first Lambeau Leap. Unfortunately, there wasn’t an (easy) way to calculate how many FGs Lambeau threw in between, but hopefully Brandon McManus appreciates the fact that he was able to accomplish something that took 12 years for Green’s all-time leading scorer Bay. .in his first kick for the team!

McManus definitely does. That was clear enough after the game. His desire to make the Lambeau Leap was based on an appreciation for the franchise’s history.

I really appreciate Mike’s reply to Phil from Carlsbad, MA on Wednesday II. We, the fans, the press and the team, are aware of which matches are coming up. But, as you said, the matchups change from week to week; just look at the 49ers and Bucs after last weekend. It’s not always about who you play but when you play them. The Packers appear to be facing that scenario with a Jaguars team this week that should be more confident than last week after their win in London. OK?

There’s no way Green Bay can take the Jaguars for granted, especially after the win over New England. Wins are a valuable currency in the NFL and it’s early enough in the season to turn things around. I remember the 2012 game between the 4-3 Packers and the 1-5 Jaguars at Lambeau, with Jacksonville coming in as a two-TD underdog. That game came down to the Packers allowing the Jags to stay close. My message to this dressing room would be that you have won 3/4 of the AFC South. On Sunday you have to look to Jacksonville as the division leader and complete the sweep.

Oh no! It’s not the dreaded cheating game in Jacksonville. These planners are wicked, I tell you! Wicked!

It’s not a trap. It’s just another chance for the Packers to prove they’re as good as we think they can be.

Greetings Inbox. Ok Wes, short and sweet. The Packers win if…
