Clay Matthews calls Monday night’s shoulder injury a “cheap shot”

Rodgers tweaked his hamstring in the third quarter of Monday night’s 27-13 win over Philadelphia, but finished the game. “I saw the replay, and it was a fantastic catch”.

“Our defense played outstanding, especially in the second half, keeping that point total at 13”. Rodgers completed a fourth-down pass for 21 yards to Jordy Nelson that pretty much sealed the outcome. Give him the completion. He converted two more third downs on rushes to help the Packers to a 71 percent conversion rate – the highest on third down by any team this season and Green Bay’s highest in a game since Week 8 of 2013 against the Vikings. Everyone around you is in an uproar because they all witnessed the mistake. It’s there. It’s real whether you want to admit to it or not. We knew [Rodgers] was going to run around and make plays.

The team didn’t practice Wednesday, with coach Mike McCarthy believing his players needed the extra rest after playing back-to-back prime-time games the past two weeks. Let’s do a lot of other things.’ ” Pederson said. Was it Chris Webber calling a timeout MI didn’t have late in the NCAA Tournament title game? Agholor has acknowledged that he is dealing with mental issues due to his poor performance, and is unsure whether or not Doug Pederson will use him.

The Packers are facing a Texans team that committed four turnovers Sunday in its loss to the Chargers and quarterback Brock Osweiler has proven to be a liability when it comes to taking care of the football. But they are 2-6 since a 3-0 start and have suffered five straight losses on the road.

Clearly the Eagles have more talent at running back than wide receiver, even with the injuries. With Brandon Brooks missing from the offensive line because of illness and Halapoulivaati Vaitai out with an injury, the line was a insane quilt of patches.

Though the Eagles still rank second in the National Football League in time of possession, and eighth in rushing, Pederson himself indicated it’s not sustainable because the execution has to be almost ideal. I see us three, four years down the road. When they lose, just the opposite.

The Redskins, who are 6-4-1, and the Eagles play December 11. On a third-and-18 with 3:03 left, Adams caught a short pass, picked up eight yards but then went out of bounds, which stopped the clock.

“Ugly game on all fronts for the Eagles, from defensive breakdowns to some mysterious officiating and couple of important misfires by Carson Wentz”, Harrison wrote.

An interesting note – Packers defensive coordinator, Dom Capers, was the first head coach of the Texans – serving in that position from 2001 through 2005. Fletcher Cox recorded only.5 tackle in the showdown on 56 snaps. He’d registered 22 sacks and was handed a $103 million pact. He has just four touchdown passes in his last seven games, throwing seven picks in that span.

Rodgers was twisted up on a third-quarter throw and apparently injured his hamstring.

The growing chemistry between Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers is going to be critical for the Packers and their 7th ranked passing attack as the season progresses. Philadelphia’s defense couldn’t get off the field, Green Bay converting 10-of-14 third down attempts, 1-of-1 on fourth down, and punting only once.

That wasn’t Pederson’s message with reporters or with his team in the postgame locker room Monday. Fullback Aaron Ripkowski became the first back with a TD run Monday night.

“We went into the game with the mentality that they’re the best offense”, Graham said.
