Packers’ Fan Is Blaming Olivia Munn For Team’s Struggles
Terence Newman was 25 when he won his first NFC Defensive Player of the Week Award as a rookie in 2003.
“Yeah, I think it’s important to do things like that”, Rodgers said Sunday afternoon. “That’s what we’re really focused on”. Packers will play second of four games vs. NFC North teams in 19-day span….
Rodger’s actions off the field have earned him much applause, a few commenting that he was more in tune in the reality prevailing on the ground than politicians. There’s a chance you might see John Kuhn’s potential successor and fellow redhead, Aaron Ripowski, aka “The Ripper”.
“Honestly, this is exactly the way I took it”, Ihedigbo said. But the defense is winning games by shutting down opponents in ways we haven’t seen for almost three decades-back to the days of the Purple People Eaters. Rodgers seemed to be regularly passing on his first and second reads and then trying to make something out of nothing. Zuttah might have been able to play with the injury, but the team decided it’s best for him to have surgery now.
Texans QB misses practices • Houston quarterback Brian Hoyer missed practice on Wednesday because of a concussion and is questionable for Sunday’s game against the NY Jets. “No, I’m comfortable with how he’s doing things”.
In the U.S., the National Football League followed suit with a moment of silence before Sunday’s games, but, unfortunately, not everyone was so respectful.
“And you attack it and you take advantage of the opportunities that are presented”. “We’ve got to stay in coverage, keep your eyes on Rodgers and compete”. Yet, their 26 rushing attempts amounted to just 45 yards for an anemic average of 1.7 yards per carry. Fellow starter James Jones has disappeared from the offense, finishing with dubious goose eggs on his stats line as he mishandled both of the throws his way.
Three players did not particiapte. If the offensive line loses faith in the game plan, then there are problems.
“I think he’s good [at knowing when to run]”, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. Rodgers was left to rely on the young duo of tight end Justin Perillo (five catches, 58 yards, touchdown) and receiver Jared Abbrederis (four receptions, 57 yards, team-best catch of 32 yards) in mounting the late rally.
Considering Green Bay just lost to a Detroit squad that had won just one of its previous eight games and hadn’t claimed a victory at Lambeau Field for a quarter century, the suggestion that the Packers are ripe for a downfall is certainly fair, but this is still a talented squad loaded with the kind of personnel that could make a quick turnaround and get back on track for the postseason.
“That’s an excellent example of a team that’s committed to the run”. If Bradford, a former Ram, can’t play Sunday, Sanchez will start and another former Ram, Thad Lewis, will be the backup.
The receiving corps isn’t the same without Jordy Nelson. “I was reading it as middle-field closed”, Stafford said. He was asked if teams underestimate his ability to run the ball. “On every play a guy has an assignment and he’s supposed to execute that assignment a certain way, with a certain specific technique”.
That’s not to say anyone considers the current results acceptable, and Rodgers’ tone was noticeably more subdued in the weekly media session at his locker.
Philip Rivers has had an excellent year, but his wife just recently gave birth to their seventh child (no, seriously, their seventh f***ing kid), and I doubt there is any among us one person who wouldn’t peg Philip Rivers as the type of guy to give the fetus a black eye.
