. pckfn23 commented about Dillon's shortcomings in short yardage too - so that seems to be the general consensus here. AJ's built like a battering ram, but he doesn't play like one. MLF and Steno talked about the crappy blocking on that series, but MLF also said sometimes you need to just burrow in ...

That's a standard block. I suggested its a nice combo block, you suggested its a standard block. Isn't it entirely possible that both of those things are true ? And if that's the case, then the devil has no role here. Nobody suggested greatness, but it is nice to see the back- ups executing; especi...

The run blocking in general is sufficient. Not sure I agree - and here's what Andy Herman wrote about it with regards to the CLE game: "After being called an AJ Dillon hater all offseason (I’m not), it feels weird being called an AJ Dillon apologist today (I’m not that either). If you’re not a...

Asked Emanuel Wilson about this run in locker room. Smiling, Wilson said: “Pratt…he was like, ‘Outside! Outside!’
So I cut and I went outside and he was my lead blocker. That’s all I heard and that’s how I made it happen.”

Here's a clip from CLE game, this time showing a nice combo block from Rhyan/Dillard

Obviously you don't do it on your own 20 but seriously, I never saw it fail. Did anyone else? I don't know if it ever did. :idn: referring to the tush push of course in 2022, the Packers Defense stuffed the tush push not once, but twice - super impressive play by Kingsley Enagbare on the 1st one on...

Did the Packers break the Dallas Cowboys? It wouldn't be the first time... Packers broke the Cowboys in 1966 and 1967 They did it again in 2010, causing Jerry to fire Wade Phillips after getting embarrassed 45-7 on national TV Then there's the crushing playoff defeats in 2017 and now 2023 Jerry loo...

Not at the expense of <50 accuracy, though. Those kicks should not be a coin flip, they should be next to automatic I had to look up "next to automatic" and was kind of surprised to see all of the Top 10 teams in FG conversion % were over 90 % https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/field-g...

Screw the 55+ FG's. Go for it or punt.

Go for it is way more fun for the fans and the players
So there's certainly merit in that take, but I'd prefer to have the 55 FG option + Go for it + punt so your HC has a full set of choices no matter the game situation
