In the last article, we covered the six defensive sacks in the Packers 27-23 week seven win over the Cardinals. While the sacks were impressive in their own way and helped the defense achieve the end result, a few of the sacks simply didn’t matter because of explosive pass plays given up on the same […]

The Packers came from behind on Sunday to win 27-23 over the Cardinals, a game which they did not lead until late in the 4th quarter and the defense was both a burden at times and a savior at others. The positive: the defense recorded six sacks and pressured quarterback Jacoby Brissett on 19 of […]

The Green Bay Packers announced on Saturday that they have activated receiver Christian Watson from the physically unable to perform list. That gives the team much-needed breathing room at the receiver position going into their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the lack of an elevation of a practice squad receiver probably means that rookie […]

Ring the alarms. The Green Bay Packers’ receiver position is going to get very weird against the Pittsburgh Steelers. As it stands, following the Packers’ final injury report of the week, receiver Jayden Reed is on the injured reserve, Dontayvion Wicks (calf) has been ruled out and both Matthew Golden (hip) and Christian Watson (knee) […]

So far in 2025, sportsbooks have installed the Green Bay Packers as favorites in all three of their road games. None of those games have ended with the Packers covering the spread, and the team has gone just 1-1-1 away from Lambeau Field so far this season. That record will be put to the test […]

Wait, the Green Bay Packers went down?! I mean, it wasn’t the best win ever, but it was still a win, right? Yes, it was, and the Packers are still third overall, which is very good! But it wasn’t the most convincing win while the Lions were beating the stuffings out of a good, fun […]

The Green Bay Packers are beat up at the wide receiver position, and that might mean a real opportunity to see what rookie wideout Savion Williams is capable of this Sunday. Heading into a Week 8 Sunday Night Football showdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Packers will be without Jayden Reed, who continues to rehab […]

With the NFL trade deadline fast approaching, fans’ eyes are turning toward potential upgrades the Green Bay Packers could make to bolster their team for a (hopefully) deep run. One of the obvious areas of weakness this year is the cornerback position. Nate Hobbs’ play at outside corner through seven games leaves a lot to […]

Aaron Rodgers will be under center for the Pittsburgh Steelers this week, bringing the former Packers quarterback full circle. Despite a contentious exit from the Packers, Rodgers has been magnanimous this week, praising the Packers and sharing plenty of anecdotes about his time in Green Bay. Win or lose, Rodgers will become the latest in […]

There is this one Green Bay Packers sequence from last week that continues to piss me off, and I want to talk about it a little more. Specifically, this sequence is at the end of the first quarter. Now, it’s unfair to judge individual plays in a vacuum, especially in this offense, where giving certain looks […]

The NFL gets week 8 underway this evening on Thursday Night Football, with this week’s game matching up a pair of playoff teams from a year ago. The Chargers and Vikings both finished second in their respective divisions last season but lost in the first round of the postseason and are looking for more in […]

I don’t expect the Green Bay Packers to just take a loss on their $48 million signing of cornerback Nate Hobbs, nor do I think they should. Hobbs was one of the premier slot cornerbacks to hit free agency last offseason, and he was paid as such. With that being said, be it because of […]

Week 8 is just getting started around the NFL, and that means that we’re just getting started seeing the headlines and discussion about Aaron Rodgers’ first (and potentially only) game against the Green Bay Packers. Now that attention has moved on from Week 7 and the Packers’ win in Arizona, all eyes are on the […]

After practice today, Green Bay Packers receiver Christian Watson stated, “It’s my goal and plan to play this week,” per Packers.com’s Weston Hodkiewicz. Watson is coming off his late 2024 season ACL injury, which landed him on the physically unable to play list to start the 2025 season. Currently, Watson is playing through his 21-day […]

Three Green Bay Packers were non-participants in practice on Wednesday: receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf), defensive lineman Lukas Van Ness (foot) and kicker Brandon McManus (quad). Wicks was injured in last week’s win against the Arizona Cardinals, while both Van Ness and McManus were held out of action for that game. Head coach Matt LaFleur stated […]

The last time Matt LaFleur’s Green Bay Packers faced off against Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers, the Packers lost 23-19 to a Kenny Pickett-led team that only threw for 119 passing yards on the day. In part, that was because the Pittsburgh defense held quarterback Jordan Love to just a 71.8 passer rating and forced him […]

Throughout the week, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has been stating that the team is set to play the Pittsburgh Steelers, who just happen to have quarterback Aaron Rodgers, not playing Aaron Rodgers. Clearly, there’s an attempt to diffuse the talk about a potential revenge game, and that was reciprocated by Rodgers on […]

The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers will be relatively unrecognizable when they face off on Sunday Night Football this week. Neither team will be wearing their classic uniforms, which, to me, is a little disappointing in a matchup between two massive brands. The Packers will be wearing their all white “Winter Warning” uniforms, which […]

In 2020, Electronic Arts extended its exclusive-rights deal with the NFL for the Madden video game series. The extension was through 2026. Much like an NFL contract, however, an in-season extension was expected for this year. Insider Gaming reported back in July that a deal was in the works that included EA actually looking to […]

I know Green Bay Packers fans are desperately searching for a potential trade candidate at either defensive tackle or cornerback to give this team a shot in the arm in the second half of the 2025 regular season. Thankfully, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Matt Bowen talked about the trade deadline this week and named their […]
