Abbrederis injury an underrated blow — Green Bay Packers
There are great seats starting at 7 to cheer on the Purple, so get them before the Packer fans do. The silver lining here is that the Packers are not invincible, and this game could truly go either way.
In a report by ESPN, McCarthy said ahead of Thursday’s practice that he is not sure what Rodgers is capable of but the quarterback is looking good. “There’s a lot of pride in lacing it up every Sunday and knowing that it doesn’t matter what you’re dealing with, you’re going to play through it. We’ve all done it over the years”.
“We had some opportunities, I missed some throws and we missed some opportunities to convert and put some more points on the board”, Rodgers said.
As for the Vikings, what a job Mike Zimmer has done with this team in the two years he’s been there.
The Green Bay Packers were 6-0 with an elated fan base rolling comfortably into its bye week atop the NFC North Division. During a media session, Packers coach Mike McCarthy admitted that Rodgers was also “banged up”.
On Sunday, November 15, 2015, the Minnesota Vikings traveled to California to take on the Oakland Raiders in a game between two young teams on the rise. There are times when everything is stacked against one team and they still find a way to rise to the occasion, take momentum away from the favorite and come out on top.
It’s no secret that rookie fourth-round draft pick T.J. Clemmings is playing right tackle with the inconsistency one would expect from a, well, rookie fourth-round draft pick. James Jones, who started the season as hot as anybody, has cooled down significantly.
With Hoyer likely out with a concussion, the Texans claimed Brandon Weeden, who had been waived by the Dallas Cowboys to back up Yates.
Of course, they aren’t the only ones who have to improve.
Had Jordy Nelson been healthy, he could have been a dependable, deep target for Rodgers. The Packers, on the other hand, have slipped to 6-3.
Sticking with the offensive line, LG Brandon Fusco is coming off his best game of the season. It’s a little later game, so hopefully they can tailgate a little bit beforehand and get really loud. Another area favorite, the Chicago Bears, are also hosting an AFC team, so they are on CBS, but only in the Chicago area and northern in and far SW MI.
In many ways, Bridgewater helps ease the pressure off Peterson to the point where teams are loading up the box considerably less than they have in the past. Going into the game against Oakland, Rudolph was PFF’s 47th ranked tight end, which doesn’t justify the five year, $36.5 million contract he signed last year.
While a few may not be thrilled with the match-up, there’s actually plenty to be interested in. “We’ll see where he is”, McCarthy said. The Titans aren’t very good yet, but Mariota gives you a reason to want to watch.
