He always looked slow to me while playing for CIN, then yesterday he didn't look slow at all. He looked fast and powerful. The HOU OL is far superior to what CIN was putting out there.

Mazrimiv Posted Monday at 03:09 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:09 PM For all the struggles GB has had replacing Crosby, at least it looks like Gute finally found the answer at P. Not only did Whelan have the great hold on the game winning kick, his punting was also outstanding. 5 punts, 56.8 gross, 51.6 net. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is amusing to me that this happened during pre-game! Yep. As we were setting up the TV's yesterday, I mentioned to my buddy that I'd put money on JA earning a PF during the game by getting into it with Diggs. About 15 minutes later, news broke on the pre-game incident. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He always looked slow to me while playing for CIN, then yesterday he didn't look slow at all. He looked fast and powerful. I never saw him as a slow player. CIN used to lean on him pretty hard so maybe you saw him dinged up and yesterday he was fresh. He’s always had an amazing ability to hesitate a half a beat while keeping momentum. This can throw the defender off and then it’s all speed and power once he finds his lane. Very good runner and can catch it to boot. With all of the stuff that happened in college, I was glad the Pack didn’t take him but he was always a really tough runner on the field. In today’s RB market, guys like him can be found for 3/25 16 guaranteed. I love Jacobs and he has carried the load to keep us in contention. I don’t want to grind him down and also think we could finds players at a lower price while we bring in rookie talent. The impact of having 2 preferably 3 quality RBs running behind a good line should not be underestimated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Guy Posted Monday at 03:15 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:15 PM 6 passes for 34 yards, NO TDs. That is what our secondary gave up to Texans WRs. Pretty amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packerraymond Posted Monday at 03:26 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:26 PM Yeah this is just straight up C4, nothing fancy. Totally on Love, bad read. Ball needs to go to Doubs based on pre-snap alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean that's what a 3-step drop is, you're predetermining where you go based on pre-snap look. Love assumes Pitre is going to book it over to cover Doubs and Stingley is going to sink underneath and make that throw risky. Both players would've been disobeying cover 4 principles in that scenario though. Throw should've been predetermined for Doubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea you wonder why Doubs wasn't the pre-snap read here with Pitre playing inside shade/alignment and your outside WR running a go to draw Stingley out of the play.

I think Hafley might actually know what he's doing. 😂 To my untrained eye..... Our plan was to rush Stroud when down/distance presented itself. Coverage was used on other downs. I'm not sure we really set out to stop the run, but we did do some run/blitz stuff on occasion when needed. I don't know enough about Stroud to know if he is a running QB like Murray, Richardson, Hurts....etc. I do know that he is quite mobile in the pocket, though. I'm as sold now as I was a few weeks ago on Haff and his ability to put in game plans for different teams and QB's. And it's an odd feeling. One I'm not used to.

On the other hand, game on the line and Orzech throws a grenade for a snap which is mildly concerning. He's been better this year overall but still not consistent enough.

He's not, he's a run to throw guy. I would call him savvy more than elusive and a running threat. My gut instincts tell me he's under pressure more this year than last.
