Good point. He gets lost in the shuffle there on the back end of the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 Justis Mosqueda: Current Green Bay receiver snaps through two weeks: Davante Adams: 133 Marquez Valdes-Scantling: 107 Geronimo Allison: 66 Jake Kumerow: 7 It's time to #FreeKumerow Peter Bukowski: MVS clearly WR2. He has to step up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packfanfb Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Honestly I'm hoping Shepherd gets legit snaps at WR. He might be the 2nd best route runner on the squad. MVS is the guy we want to emerge as our No. 2 but he's still more athlete than refined route runner at this point in his development. We literally need that 5-15 yard guy who can get open, especially on 3rd down. I was hoping that would be Allison but he's been largely MIA through 2 weeks and glued to defenders. Maybe Shepherd's pure route running skills give him an opportunity there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 SI Packer Maven: In some metrics, the Packers are running neck-and-neck with the pitiful Dolphins Through two games, the Green Bay Packers’ offense has been mostly putrid. Points per game: 15.5 (tied, 26th). Yards per game: 274 (29th). Yards per play: 4.35 (30th). Rushing yards per play: 3.47 (27th). Passing yards per play: 5.58 (28th). Sacks percentage: 10.9 (26th). Third-down percentage: 25.9 (27th). Red-zone touchdown percentage: 80.0 (sixth). Yards per drive: 21.08 (31st). Points per drive: 1.19 (29th). Plays per drive: 4.81 (30th). Turnovers per drive: 0.77 (11th). That’s a lot of bad football. In terms of yards per play, the Packers (4.35) are better than only the Jets (3.88), who are on their third quarterback, and the rebuilding Dolphins (3.56), who might be the worst team in NFL history. In terms of yards per drive, the Packers (21.08) are better than only the Dolphins (16.70). In terms of points per drive, the Packers (1.19) are ahead of only the Bears (0.86), Jets (0.48) and Dolphins (0.43). Granted, the Packers started the season against the Bears, who led the NFL in scoring defense last season, and Vikings, who led the NFL in scoring defense in 2017. And, of course, it’s a new offense under coach Matt LaFleur. The strength of the competition and the lack of preseason playing time have combined to play a big role in the team’s sputtering start.

Leader Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 Matt Schneidman: The Packers are expected to sign free agent WR Keon Hatcher to their practice squad, per source. He spent time last season on the Packers’ practice squad before the Raiders signed him to their 53-man roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I mean, when we average with a sample size of two we have to admit the possibility that one of the two things is an outlier. Like "first week in a new offense against one of the league's best defenses" kind of outlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two huge wins but these numbers are at least a bit concerning. A lot of corrections and growth are needed. Hopefully it starts this week.
