Sasquatch Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 With the way the joint practices worked out, I’m keeping expectations relatively low at this point. Not gonna get too worked up that offense might very well look like chit. Kinda hoping the defense comes out strong though. It’d be so damn nice to watch and say, “yeah, now we’re cooking with gas!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll allow it. Tramon couldn't beat out a guy named Earthwind Moreland for the backup CB spot and got cut. I distinctly remember a VM34 hype thread on here when I was like 15 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I just want to see some consistent pressure from Gary and some plays from Savage. The offense under the back ups is going to be a crap show so its not even worth looking into the WRs or TEs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that game and specifically that play because they were desperate to mount a comeback at that point in the game. Why Johnson was looking backwards while running forward is still a mystery to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that he's boycotting the game because he's still irked about MLF and the joint practices. It's KizerSZN 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be so damn nice to watch and say, “yeah, now we’re cooking with gas!” I mean I think the offense was basically running vanilla stuff, Rodgers even said so. Going to see a lot of that in preseason too. I'm focusing more fundamentals versus the overall product when I know we are going to be holding back. I want to see guys catching the football consistently (MVS, Graham) and maybe see a decent running game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packfanfb Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Dexter Williams and Corey Grant should get a lot of touches tomorrow. Keep an eye on them. If the Packers go with just 3 running backs, don't be shocked if Jamaal Williams is a surprise cut. Not likely, but not out of the question given his fit in this scheme.

Could one of the new guys push Williams out? Sure. Nobodies seen anything from them so who can say - but - if there's two things that characterize Williams - that he's proven since day one - its that he's "present" and he's steady. He's played in all 32 games of his two year career too date - and back when Hundley was steering the ship, I (part jokingly.....) said Williams - who has always averaged 3+ YPC - was our best shot at getting a first down. If you want to sprinkle a few other things on top - he wont be UFA until 2021 and he's relatively cheap (by NFL standards). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
