Packers eager to face former teammate Woodson

There was just that one area where he needed to catch up.

On the season, the Green Bay Packers average 229.8 yards in passing and 111.7 yards in rushing.

“We’ve got to get our Christmas shopping in and do our job, as well”, Rodgers said. “James, I thought he was going to be on my team this year, but he went back there to Green Bay, back to where he was drafted, where he’s comfortable”. We’ve been hitting screens all year. “I think it’s a good comparison”.

She is fast like a wide receiver, sweet and energetic. His carries and yards were both season highs, and he topped 100 yards for the third time in the last four games. “We had to clean some things up, clean our communication up, and make sure everybody was on the same page. But the goal is to do whatever it takes to win”.

The packers at 9-4 are going to the postseason but they are trying to figure out what seed as they could be in as division champs or as a wild card but face a hard path through the Black Hole and the Upstart Raiders looking to pull off back to back victory a for the 3rd time this season. Back then, Woodson played cornerback and in the slot. Clements has moved back up to the press box for games….

Rodgers, however, said it would be “disrespectful” to be surprised by Woodson’s production this season. He and general manager Reggie McKenzie – who was in the Packers personnel department during Jones’ first stint in Green Bay – are friends, and says he’s pulling for the Raiders to turn things around. Rodgers has thrown two more touchdowns (28 to Carr’s 26) and has four fewer interceptions (five to Carr’s nine).

But the Packers build other routes into the play because they want the play to resemble something other than a screen pass. I think it’s 38 scrambles on the year for big yardage. “I really got to work on my look-offs and my no-look passes against Charles because if you weren’t aware of where he was at every single rep, he’d make you look bad”. Perhaps because of Rodgers, Woodson transformed himself into one of the best cornerbacks of all-time after his first eight seasons with the Raiders ended with a mutual parting of the ways. When Bennett played in the 1990s, the Packers worked on the screen obsessively because coach Mike Holmgren was a perfectionist. “I’ve never quite studied him like this preparing for a game, so it’ll be a lot of fun do it”.

The Packers have two mobile guards in T.J. Lang and Josh Sitton plus a pair of athletic centers in Linsley and J.C. Tretter.

“They both don’t take very long to fire their gun, meaning they’ve got a real short stroke”, said Musgrave. “I know they’re glad to have their guy”.

McCarthy also said that wide receiver Ty Montgomery isn’t ready to go after a setback with his ankle injury during Wednesday’s practice.

A muffed punt by Emmanuel Sanders and a coffin corner kick to the 2-yard line set up a Raiders touchdown and a safety in a 15-12 upset win over the Denver Broncos. So we just kind of picked back up and got on the same page starting Week 1. Of Starks’ 39 receptions this year, 24 have been on screens, and they have accounted for 311 of his season total 369 receiving yards. Rodgers has completed 61.1 percent of his passes (282-for-461) for 3,175 yards.

“He kills the screens”, Lacy said.
