He was NOT doing this in his first few games as his technique would get sloppy and he would panic. Not only that, but he really did not track the ball well at all. His improvement within weeks is so good to see. All he needed was some game reps and now he is getting better and better. But I fully expect Rodgers to test him deep at least 2-3 times on Saturday. Maybe the youngster can come away with a INT? Ward Alligator arming that int lol.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The INT would just be a cherry on top lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The INT would just be a cherry on top lol One area where I can see Thomas coming away with a INT is on a 3rd and long where Rodgers likes to just take those punt shots at. Tarell Brown got one in the divisional round nine years ago that way. The first meeting we went to single high quite a bit on 3rd downs and Rodgers killed us on that. We used much more zone against the Cowboys. Will be interesting to see what Ryans goes to on money downs. Maybe use some two man to take away the deep ball but if that is the case, we will need Warner badly. Ryans was great last week, but he will need to replicate that type of performance for us to have a chance in this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine he'll be out there all game long just due to conditioning. Z probably won't have the stamina to play more than 15 or so snaps as a pass rushing specialist and going from practice speed to playoff speed is a pretty huge leap. He's a pro, so he'll give it his best- but he will be limited. Jaire Alexander has been practicing quite a bit and Bahktiari has done some work too...so those guys will be better prepared on Saturday 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaire/Bahktiari are more important to get back and looks like both will be good to go. Clark is the one that worries me the most at the DL. Our interior is our weakness and Clark wrecked our run game in the last meeting. Granted, we didn't stretch the field as much since Mitchell didn't play and Deebo wasn't used as a RB. So maybe his impact won't be as big this time around. If it is? Game over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NcFinest9erFan Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 to think at one point, our run def was so/so at best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly due to DJ Jones being so quick off the snap and how powerful the edge rushers are. We have to stop Jones/Dillon and make the Packers one dimensional. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinerNation21 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Sounds like Fred is most likely going to play and seems the same could be true for Bosa. Looking forward to getting an update from the team later today. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good chance when Z is in their, hes lined up inside over the guard or center in obvious pass rushing roll, not over Trent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinerNation21 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Rodgers when under pressure: 150 drop backs 38.4% CMP% 570 Yrds / 8 TDs / 3 Ints 8.4% Big Time Throws 3.8% Turnover Worthy Throws 30 sacks 10.4% Drop% 59.5 PFF Grade Rodgers is at his worst when he's pressured, yet according to PFF, he has a 75.2 grade when blitzed. So it seems when a second-level defender is brought down to blitz, he does alright. But when he's getting pressure from the front 4 only, he's at his absolute worst. Comparing his under pressure numbers against his kept clean, blitzed, and not blitzed numbers - his BTT is the highest under pressure but his TWT and drop rate are also the highest. He seems to get kind of rattled when he's getting DL pressure while still having 7 in coverage and turns into a heavy boom or bust QB as noted by his good TD/INT ratio and his CMP%. This seems to play right into our strength right now: If we can keep this up, we can force Rodgers into low-percentage throws and end drives early. The Packers are averaging 10.1 offensive drives per game. If we can get them off the field early and run the ball successfully to burn clock, we can win this game.
