They started 3-3, finished 10-6 and were the 6 seed. But they didn't lose a game by more than 4 and never trailed by more than 7.

Radical suggestion: If Rogers thumb isn't significantly better by the weekend, sit him and give the thumb a chance to heal. Let Love take his chances/lumps.

Either way (Rogers or Love), the Offense looks so discombobulated that the Defense will spend 40 minutes on the game clock, Allen will have 300 yards through the air by the end of Q3 and 75 yards on the ground - himself.

I was thinking the same, clearly he is having a problem with the thumb, do we sit him two weeks, take our lumps in Buffalo and hope we still one after and have him come back ready to roll.

This version of Rodgers aint winning anything it would appear. He has been bested by a guy named Zappe, Cousins, Zach Wilson and Heinke in the last few weeks. Even the game against Brady, he was pretty pedestrian. In short, he is not our only problem, but he is the one making 50M being outplayed by guys making 2M

Honestly at this point, it may actually be better to run Rodgers with a bum thumb out there if you want to maximize your tanking odds. Not that tanking is actually important in the NFL, but if that's the route you want to go...

By playing Love we also maximize our tanking odds.

For just yesterday? Ooooof, that's rough for Jenkins. We all know he's capable on much better performances. Should he be sitting out too, to mend up?

Yeah, at this point I would like to believe he is not 100% and needs to sit longer. Otherwise that is such a scary drop off. He has gone from being able to play all over the line at a probowl level to looking like our worst offensive lineman.

Any info about their run blocking cause even with the changes it didn't look any better than against the Jets?

This game is a lost cause, but if we end up losing to the Lions in two weeks, I'm going to be in full-blown tank mode for the rest of the year.

Some guys, especially big guys, are never back to 100% with that injury. I'm very leery of giving Jenkins that big juicy extension he wants.

I'm curious if they offered him a long term deal this summer. Because if they did he might regret turning that down for the rest of his life. At this point you can't offer anything more than a 1 yr prove it type deal. Now maybe that changes these next 10 games.

Tom has got to bulk up. Pushed back immediately on his few one on one blocks

They started 3-3, finished 10-6 and were the 6 seed. But they didn't lose a game by more than 4 and never trailed by more than 7.

And they lost back-to-back overtime games to fall to 3-3. They didn't look like a juggernaut, but they looked solid.

I think he might have more than 75 yards rushing.

You're probably right. But weird things happen every week.

Cosmicly I feel this is a W, its due and too many people are counting them out. I think they'll step up and play energized being such big underdogs on the road after such 3 bad losses against one of the better teams for the first time under the lights. :meditate:

McLaurin torched this team last week while the guy who GB selected in round 3 one pick ahead of Terry in 2019 (Jace Sternberger) mocked the selection on Twitter.

This week we get to see another WR GB could have taken in round 3 in 2020 when he instead chose to take Degaura who is apparently the 4th string TE.

The drafting of the offensive skill position players has not exactly been stellar under the Gutemeister.

He seems kinda small for a tackle position
