The Way a Packers Forum Should Be

I'm just trying to piece together the transition of yoop defending Rodgers and knowing Rodgers intimately (more intimately than what Rodgers says in his own words) to now hating Rodgers, trashing Rodgers and replacing Rodgers with Joe Barry and a prevent defense.
I defend what players do on the field, not there actions off it, and this line of bull &%$@ that I know what Rodgers thinks is just that, I've always said his actions on the field lead me to think certain things.go pak go wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 08:21I'm just trying to piece together the transition of yoop defending Rodgers and knowing Rodgers intimately (more intimately than what Rodgers says in his own words) to now hating Rodgers, trashing Rodgers and replacing Rodgers with Joe Barry and a prevent defense.
I don't come here as often so I missed the transition. Feels like a different forum now.
serious? why would I, are you going to say people here have not blamed Rodgers for not being basically perfect in games we lost when there where protection break downs, poor run blocking, a half doz dropped passes? if Rodgers doesn't over come these issue he is often the one that gets the blame.
The next time you completely flip on an opinion, you should at least give us a forewarning because I think this one completely took us by surprise.Yoop wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 09:52serious? why would I, are you going to say people here have not blamed Rodgers for not being basically perfect in games we lost when there where protection break downs, poor run blocking, a half doz dropped passes? if Rodgers doesn't over come these issue he is often the one that gets the blame.
I defended him based mostly for these reasons, yet I get called a player fan.
there is no flipping here, that is YOU confusing what I said with your pre determined opinion of what I had said, again YOU need to quit twisting my comments and simply read the basic text, YOU, and others have failed at every level of civil conversation and you want to blame me for it, I defended Rodgers the player, I have not defended Rodgers the person in a long time, well before he lied about the vax.Acrobat wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 10:09The next time you completely flip on an opinion, you should at least give us a forewarning because I think this one completely took us by surprise.Yoop wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 09:52serious? why would I, are you going to say people here have not blamed Rodgers for not being basically perfect in games we lost when there where protection break downs, poor run blocking, a half doz dropped passes? if Rodgers doesn't over come these issue he is often the one that gets the blame.

I was just going to post how disappointed I was regarding Wyatt. Loved the pick. Feel a little better after ur post. He seemed nfl ready. I hope he gets some more exended snaps going forward.
Lowry isn’t going to be in the long term plan. He’s a JAG that’s playing pretty decent!
It's a long season. Wyatt will get his snaps if he deserves them. Trading Lowry doesn't make much sense. The value wouldn't be there and injuries at some point do happen.Drj820 wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 14:37Lowry isn’t going to be in the long term plan. He’s a JAG that’s playing pretty decent!
I would consider trading Lowry while he may have value or I would continue to trim his snaps. Not because he’s necessarily doing anything wrong...but Wyatt needs those snaps. Wyatt is under contract for the next 4 years for fairly cheap, no reason to waste one of those years so a guy like Lowry can get snaps.
Is lowry better? MAYBE, but it’s marginal and not worth him taking snaps all things considered
Lowery leads our DT's with 11 tackles, Clark has 9, Gary has 12, Wyatt has 1, Campbell has 29 ( our monster in the box), Rasul has 15, and he's a great deceiver, since you can bounce him in or out, same now with a guy like Walker, the more players that can move around the more deceptive your defense can be.Drj820 wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 14:37Lowry isn’t going to be in the long term plan.

Back to Lowery, we ( some of us) have been trying to replace Lowery every season since his 2nd year, imo mostly because we expect DT's to emerge as quickly as WR's do, but most don't, it's simply a tough transition from college O lineman to pro OL, Wyatt will be a good one as long as we have a little patience and don't force feed him to quick
Does this also help defend play action passes more because the DB don't feel as compelled to fly up the field to help with run support or is that too linear of thinking on my part?Pckfn23 wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 21:40
So this is interesting. Personally I have never been a fan of defenses that try to "string out" the run, forcing it to the sideline. In concept it gives the 2nd level time to get there and make a play. In reality, I feel it is too boom and bust. If the runner can get the corner it is a huge gain as there isn't anyone left out there. We ran this type of run defense where I coach and it worked when we had athletes, but didn't when the athletes were lacking. I prefer to set that edge and force everything back inside. To me it just makes sense to force things back to the help. One draw back is that it does hit faster and give the 2nd level less time to adjust.
I think you are on the right track, but it doesn't help against play action. Play action would generally only affect those players with eyes on the RB, ie... linebackers. What it does allow us to do is play less zone. It is REALLY tough to spill the running back and play sound run defense without corners or safeties playing run on the edge. In man that's really tough to do as eyes are definitely not in the backfield. At least in zone they are facing the line and eyes can peak. I think it may be the reason we switched after Barry got blasted for playing so much zone.Acrobat wrote: ↑29 Sep 2022 07:53Does this also help defend play action passes more because the DB don't feel as compelled to fly up the field to help with run support or is that too linear of thinking on my part?Pckfn23 wrote: ↑28 Sep 2022 21:40
