Agreed! Unfortunately the sidelines are always open.kyle.mccarroll wrote: ↑23 Sep 2022 17:24Big brained move by GB: make sure no one who Rodgers trusts plays, that way he has no choice but to actually throw it to who's open!
Playing chess, baby

And then Godwin out and Julio, Gage and Perriman all questionable too.
Packers never use the doubtful designation I’ve noticed.
weird to say the Packers never use the doubtful designation.
But would not that necessarily mean to open up for long throws? Because the only plan I know of taking away quick throws is blitzing. Are there any others?
Why would anyone hope for that? He looks like he's in slo-mo 24/7.lake shark wrote: ↑23 Sep 2022 17:14If Watson and Cobb are also out, Rodgers might have no choice but to throw to “that guy who returns”. Hopefully he does!
Blitzing doesn't take away quick throws. In fact it may lead to the opposite. To take away quick throws you play press man or cover 2 in a lot of dime looks.German_Panzer wrote: ↑23 Sep 2022 19:27But would not that necessarily mean to open up for long throws?

I also think the weather will play a role. I remember us struggling in heat.
Yes, but blitzing works best on 3rd and long and other situations where the receivers are required to run routes that take some time to develop. Idea being pressuring the QB in a situation where a quick pass won't gain the required yards.German_Panzer wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 05:14So what is the goal of blitzing then? Isn‘t it to reach the QB asap to prevent him throwing (at all)?
Yes, but with less people in coverage, usually gunna be a quick dump off open early on, or will leave some one on one shots open deep.German_Panzer wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 05:14So what is the goal of blitzing then? Isn‘t it to reach the QB asap to prevent him throwing (at all)?
well disguised blitzes have proven very successful, a QB can't plan for something he doesn't recognize pre snap, same thing with line stunts, we've done pretty well at times opening a gap for Hawk and other lbers, Walker, Campbell, Gary should be very good at this stuff.BF004 wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 06:43Yes, but with less people in coverage, usually gunna be a quick dump off open early on, or will leave some one on one shots open deep.German_Panzer wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 05:14So what is the goal of blitzing then?

Blitzing would help in situations, but as a main game plan, would frankly force Brady to get get rid of it quick.
I agree playing real tight, aggressive coverage, against these WR’s, and trusting your 3-4 man rush to get home in 3-4 seconds.
The problem is, Brady is The Master of recognizing blitzes, and getting rid of it quick.Yoop wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 07:16well disguised blitzes have proven very successful, a QB can't plan for something he doesn't recognize pre snap, same thing with line stunts, we've done pretty well at times opening a gap for Hawk and other lbers, Walker, Campbell, Gary should be very good at this stuff.BF004 wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 06:43Yes, but with less people in coverage, usually gunna be a quick dump off open early on, or will leave some one on one shots open deep.German_Panzer wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 05:14

everyone has been touting Tampa's front 7, when ours is just as good, time for that group to step it up this week, sorry I disagree, giving Brady a 3 or 4 count is a recipe for disaster, we got to get home quicker then that, and we should be able to.
If we can't get pressure with a 4 man rush package then someone should be fired, we where 4th in the league last year doing that and we've added Reed and Wyatt to that package.salmar80 wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 08:56The problem is, Brady is The Master of recognizing blitzes, and getting rid of it quick.Yoop wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 07:16well disguised blitzes have proven very successful, a QB can't plan for something he doesn't recognize pre snap, same thing with line stunts, we've done pretty well at times opening a gap for Hawk and other lbers, Walker, Campbell, Gary should be very good at this stuff.BF004 wrote: ↑24 Sep 2022 06:43

I'm not against trying it now and again, but to achieve surprise, gotta do something else to set up for it until springing the trap.
If we don't get pressure without blitzing, were in real trouble in this game. And it'll be a big test for our ILB's cover skills.
