From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
If we don't see Jaire and Davante battle it out all night, I may take getting rid of Barry into my own hands...

Preston Smith has responsibilities when Adams is in the slot.
That was Mike Pettine's BS. Barry has been poor but let's be fair to him, he is still better than Mike "put Preston Smith at CB" Pettine.
seriously how does that differ from giving Justin Jefferson free range rights in our secondary for 60 minutes a year ago, zone coverage allows a opposing offense to more easily create mis matches, so instead of Preston covering a TE, where he might have a chance, he ends up against a RB or even a receiver, Barry force fed zone against one of the best WR's in the league while Alexander is forced to watch both failed miserably, the later to me more grievously
I think we need to bring back "The Dom" he'd get this bunch a cooking
If you can’t get all 3 phases going against the Raiders with a week and a half to prepare you don’t deserve to win.
I think we can win with 2 phases. But, then again I am kind of a homer pre gameday. I will probably be irritated come Monday night when its a 3 point game with 2 minutes left. Right now, IM thinking were gonna win by 2 TDs. Take the Pack minus the 13.

lol. Oh no. Smith covered Jefferson week 1 in 2022
Somehow I have no memory of that, but I do not doubt for a second that you are remembering it correctly.
I do give Barry some credit that the defense does make needed changes down the stretch. The second time we faced MIN, the gameplan was great. It seems to be some combination of MLF and the players forcing him to do so more than his own competence as a D-Coord, that is why I believe he's MLF's guy. I never saw anything like that from Pettine.
I still think he needs to be replaced, but I hold him in somewhat higher esteem than Pettin.

Yeah it was a situtation where MN caught us not "traveling" and forced our hand by putting Jefferson in a position that 91 had to cover him.
You can probably guess where the ball went to on that play.
I'm trying to figure out if the Packers have a snowball's chance of winning this game. Or are they going to tank like the Brewers did this week?
This might be the last team we have a decent shot at beating, even on the road, in a while. The Raiders are a mess. If we don't screw up too much we should be successful Monday night.
