There’s a lot going on in Green Bay right now. Tucker Kraft’s knee is shot, leaving the offense without its most effective player. Nate Hobbs is hurt, leaving the secondary perilously thin (even if Hobbs wasn’t playing particularly well). The offense seems scattershot. The defense can’t stop the run. And on top of all of […]

So it’s out of the norm that the Packers brought in three players on Monday, coming off their loss to the Carolina Panthers. It’s possible that this could be due to the […]

It’s pretty clear at this point that the Green Bay Packers will let their outside cornerback battle continue until a clear victor has been named. After the Pittsburgh Steelers game, head coach Matt LaFleur said that the team will consider all options, including moving Keisean Nixon out of a full-time role. While we haven’t seen […]

Over the past couple of weeks, teams have really limited the Green Bay Packers’ ability to push the ball downfield. After games, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur repeatedly has stated that deep zone coverage schemes are the reason why quarterback Jordan Love consistently takes checkdowns on multi-level passing concepts and why the team calls so […]

The Green Bay Packers announced on Monday that the team has released linebacker Kristian Welch, which is a surprise. Already, the Packers are going to gain an extra roster spot on the 53-man roster because tight end Tucker Kraft will eventually go on the injured reserve with a torn ACL. Beyond that, Welch was released […]

When the Green Bay Packers made the blockbuster trade for Micah Parsons, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones cited the acquisition of Kenny Clark as an important one for his defense to be able to stop the run. Although the Packers don’t regret trading for a Hall of Fame-caliber pass rusher, there’s a sliver of truth […]

Right now, we’re awaiting confirmation of what feels inevitable: Tucker Kraft has a torn ACL and will miss the rest of the season. Ian Rapoport tweeted yesterday that the Packers fear that is the case, and I don’t think we have any reason to assume otherwise. That means the Packers are going to have to […]

When the Green Bay Packers get into their facilities at Lambeau Field this morning, they will have a new, unwelcome challenge facing them. The coaching staff, particularly on offense, will have to figure out how to assemble a productive offense without one of their most important players. Tucker Kraft has become a do-it-all player for […]

Most of yesterday’s upset win over the Green Bay Packers felt like a fun, but ultimately inconsequential romp on a windy day. The Carolina Panthers and their fans were just happy to be in the conversation with an opponent that was, and still largely is, considered to be the class of the NFC. Nursing a […]

Happy birthday, Jordan Love; sorry your party’s so lame. The Green Bay Packers debuted their new throwback uniforms this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers and their depleted offensive line and…lost, by a score of 16-13.

The Green Bay Packers began Sunday as 13.5-point favorites against the Carolina Panthers, who played a banged-up quarterback in Bryce Young behind an even more banged-up offensive line — one which was missing three starters due to injury. The Packers managed to outgain the Panthers 369 yards to 265 yards in the game, but Green […]

The Green Bay Packers wore uniforms that evoked the 1923 version of their team on this windy Sunday when they took on the Carolina Panthers at Lambeau Field. Unfortunately, at times it looked like their game plan came from that era of football as well, and the team lost a brutal 16-13 decision at home. […]

The Carolina Panthers defense suffocated the Packers offense in the red zone and their rookie kicker played the role of hero again. First Quarter Chandler Zavala marked his return to the lineup the best way he knows how—by committing a false start before the Panthers could get their first snap off. That put the offense […]
