Where \"Draft and Develop\" isn't just a philosophy...it's a way of life.
After a couple of down weeks by the Green Bay Packers, they found a much-needed bounce back against the heavily depleted New York Giants, winning Sunday’s too-close-for-comfort matchup 27-20. With the team sitting at 6-3-1 and 3rd place in the NFC North, let’s take a look at today’s winners and losers. Winner: Malik Willis It […]

In the win over the New York Giants, it felt like at least one Green Bay Packers player was dropping out of the game per drive, even if they later returned to action. Let’s take a look at the Packers’ snap counts from Week 11 to make sense of the team’s depth chart, as we […]

Despite not being on the injury report, it was announced by the Green Bay Packers on Saturday that receiver Malik Heath was not going to play against the New York Giants this week, due to a “coaches’ decision.” The team also announced that Heath would not be making the trip to New York. The only […]

Twas the week before Toyotathon, and all through Green Bay, not a critic was bashing Jordan Love, at least for a day. Despite windy conditions that resulted in multiple missed field goals, consistently tough drops from his wide receivers, and a non-throwing shoulder injury that forced him out of the game and into the locker […]

Sunday afternoon’s game was more or less what Green Bay Packers fans expected. Facing the 2-8 New York Giants, the Packers played a sloppy, ugly game but eventually managed to eke out a win with a 4th-quarter comeback. Sloppy was certainly the word of the day, however. Green Bay dropped as many as seven passes […]

The Green Bay Packers are dropping like flies, adding injury to insult. First, quarterback Jordan Love was taken to the locker room. After the drive that Love dropped in, which ended with a touchdown and a Lucas Havrisik miss on the PAT, running back Josh Jacobs also went to the locker room with an injury. […]

After starting the season 2-0, Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker said that the team has a chance to go undefeated in 2025. Since those comments, the Packers are just .500 over the last eight weeks of football, were scoreless against the 2-8 New York Giants in the first quarter and now are down […]

It’s about time for the Green Bay Packers to kick off in New Jersey to try to get back in the win column. Facing them are the New York Giants, who are massively banged up heading into this game and who have the NFL’s least efficient rushing defense. Is it a get right gameday for […]

The Green Bay Packers signed receiver/returner Mecole Hardman this offseason, as the team apparently planned on phasing All-Pro returner Keisean Nixon off of special teams. So far this year, Nixon hasn’t returned even 1 of the 30 kick returns that the Packers have taken out in 2025, and Nixon has only returned 3 of the […]

For weeks, the Green Bay Packers’ coaching staff has been trying to convince us that kicker Brandon McManus has been healthy, even though he’s now three of nine on field goals outside of the red zone this season. Clearly, he’s been pushing through an injury, and it has been impacting his performance, but the staff […]

We’ve already had one top-25 upset this week, with #20 Louisville falling to Clemson on Friday night. The ACC is currently in absolute chaos, as each of Georgia Tech, Virginia, SMU, Pittsburgh and Duke all have only one loss at the top of the conference. Yes, 5-4 Duke is 4-1 in the ACC. There’s a […]

The Green Bay Packers’ defense, again, did more than enough to win the game. Against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, whom they held to just 10 points, they found ways to stop a high-powered offense led by Saquon Barkley and AJ Brown. Unfortunately, the offense did not hold up its end of the […]

All of us here at Acme Packing Company have been theorizing as to why Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has become a bad head coach, and I would like to proffer up my theory: That Matt is secretly an old man who fell in love with the Kyle Shanahan system for all the […]

As the Green Bay Packers prepare for one of the most chaotic quarterbacks in modern NFL history in Jameis Winston, it presents an opportunity for third-year cornerback Carrington Valentine to make some splash plays for his defense. Shortly after firing head coach Brian Daboll, the New York Giants announced that Winston would be starting over […]

It’s my opinion that the Green Bay Packers are running the ball too much. They’re playing conservative and relying on their very good defense to win games, while they should be riding good offensive personnel out to an early lead so that Micah Parsons can kill people. They need to seriously dial back the running, […]

The Green Bay Packers don’t have many injury question marks going into Sunday’s Week 11 action against the New York Giants. On Friday, the team officially ruled out cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee), which was expected. Beyond that, though, Green Bay only has three players who were listed as questionable going into the game. The players […]

The Packers and Giants have nearly a century of history together. These two teams first crossed paths all the way back in 1928, a 6-0 barnburner victory for the New York Giants, who were fresh off a victory over the fearsome Pottsville Maroons the previous week. The Packers would get their revenge over their big-city […]

With Week 10 firmly in the rearview mirror and no one still talking about it at all, it’s time we turn and look at the Week 11 match-up against the New York Giants. What can we expect to see from the Green Bay Packers’ offense in this game? I looked at some numbers and film […]

The NFL has tweaked its roster rules around injured reserve significantly in the last ten years or so, with the rules changes affording teams much more flexibility to manage medium-term injuries. Years ago, if a player was placed on the Reserve/Injured list (more commonly referred to as “injured reserve” or “IR”), his season was over. […]

The Green Bay Packers have dealt with more changes and uncertainty on their offensive line in 2025 than they have for some time. Yes, David Bakhtiari’s bouncing in and out of the lineup after his torn ACL was a challenge, but the rest of the line had stayed largely healthy during the few years when […]

Coming off two straight losses, after having arguably their worst rushing performances of the season in back-to-back weeks, the Green Bay Packers need a get-right game badly. Thankfully, the football Gods have a gift for Matt LaFleur’s squad: the New York Giants, who are on pace for a historically bad run defense. How bad is […]

The Green Bay Packers are getting the New York Giants at what on paper is the perfect time. Not only are the Giants out their starting quarterback, number one running back and number one receiver, but the team also had to name an interim head coach and an interim offensive coordinator this week following the […]

There’s so much talk about the Green Bay Packers’ offensive line that I just wanted to finally collect all my thoughts together on the team’s recent pivot at the position. As someone who has followed the Packers’ draft trends since the start of the Ted Thompson era —maybe too closely for my own good health […]
