according to ProFootballFocus, Garret Wilson leads the team at 96% of snaps he's on the field with the next closest being Lazard at about 60%.
According to StatMuse Garret Wilson is the 4th most targeted WR in the entire NFL so far for the 2024 season at 149 targets. Only Lamb, Chase, and Nabers having more ranging from 152-162.
I don't think Cobb or Lazard are taking anything from Wilson. At least on paper he seems to be getting more opportunities than most.

I can't figure out what or who Garret Wilson is upset with, is it the QB who's thrown him the ball 50 more times than he's thrown to the #2 receiver which is tae Adams, or is it that he thinks Rodgers is at fault for bringing in another number one target who obviously bit into Garrets targets, the whole situation seems chaotic, if anyone seems pissy it Wilson, sounds to me like he doesn't like the competition tae brought.
lazard is a after thought in that receiver room, and is Cobb even on that team? not according to this

Um, Cobb retired.
I came into this world KICKING and screaming, naked, and covered in blood that wasn't mine.
I am prepared to go out the same way if I need to.

I know, but someone on Dec. 30th said Rodgers is overlooking young talent like Wilson to force the ball to guys like Lazard and Cobb, so I just went with it
1 of those 2 is not on the team and the guy being "overlooked" has more snaps and targets than almost every other WR in the entire league to this point so make of that what you will...

The Rams plan to rest starters even though they are not locked into the 3 seed. Rather interesting considering a loss could put them against the Vikes or the Lions vs the Commanders or Packers.

LA is not exactly a home field advantage. Wouldn’t you rather not play a three-loss team?

Heh, well they are 9-2 since getting their offensive guys back including wins over Vikings and Bills. I’m actually pretty glad they are tanking as I would not want to play them right now.RingoCStarrQB wrote: ↑02 Jan 2025 16:11They're going to lose so it won't matter.lake shark wrote: ↑02 Jan 2025 12:29The Rams plan to rest starters even though they are not locked into the 3 seed.

yes, even though MLF seems to have the Ram's number when we play, we were pretty fortunate to play them missing their biggest weapons. Not saying we'd lose, but the game would be much closer the 2nd time aroundlake shark wrote: ↑02 Jan 2025 16:38Heh, well they are 9-2 since getting their offensive guys back including wins over Vikings and Bills.

The Jets have now reportedly completed HC interviews with Ron Rivera, Rex Ryan, and Mike Vrabel.
Notice a theme there?
It's become abundantly clear the Jets have no interest in actively pursuing any high profile offensive-minded head coach interviews in order to entice Rodgers to stay on another year. If anything, these early interviews say the opposite.
Whether Rodgers opts to continue his career is still unknown. What's becoming much clearer is it's unlikely to be with the Jets.
Then again, you can never count out Woody Johnson when it comes to mismanaging his team. After all, it's very possible Mike McCarthy is available in a couple days...

According to Fowler, part of this belief stems from what those in the industry consider to be “a weak candidate pool.” Despite the Cowboys’ shortcomings this season, the team has fought its way to a 7-9 season and has a chance to pick up one more win with a victory over the Commanders in Week 18. Under backup quarterback Cooper Rush the Cowboys are 4-4 with notable wins over the Commanders and Buccaneers. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said after the team’s Week 16 win over the Buccaneers that he is “real, real proud” of the way the team has played for McCarthy amidst a lost season. McCarthy is on the final year of his contract, meaning his return would come with a new deal. It’s unlikely the Cowboys would rush to a decision on the long-time head coach, but we’ll see just how quickly things move when their season concludes on Sunday.

Looks like Lions fans are on the bandwagon of selling important game tickets to the other team for profit.

Apparently, the Vikings bought a block of Tickets behind the Vikings bench and are selling them to Viking season ticket holders at a discounted Price. Detroit complained to the league but the league said no rules were broken. Cry me a river. It just goes to show you that the Lions don't have all their seat sold even though they are 14-2. I highly doubt that there would be block of 1,900 tickets available in Lambeau. Or at the Bank for that matter. There were enough Lions fans at the game in Minnesota to make it annoying.lake shark wrote: ↑04 Jan 2025 21:22Looks like Lions fans are on the bandwagon of selling important game tickets to the other team for profit.

NFC was 47-33 against the AFC this season, a .5875 percentage. Only eclipsed by 2017, 2012, 1991, 1971, and 1970, since 1970.
Palmy - "Very few have the ability to truly excel regardless of system. For many the system is the difference between being just a guy or an NFL starter. Fact is, everyone is talented at this level."
