Vikings have mixed reactions to the hit that knocked out Kyler Murray
In his press conference on Monday (the Green Bay Packers haven’t had one yet, if you’re wondering), Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said that he doesn’t believe that Packers safety Javon Bullard’s hit on quarterback Kyler Murray was dirty. According to reporter Andrew Siciliano, O’Connell described the hit as “violent and physical,” but O’Connell […]
The Packers’ defense got hung out to dry in Week 1
Giving up 39 points in an NFL is a lot. It’s not the number you want to see from your defense at any point in a season, and certainly not in week one, and certainly not against a backup quarterback. But despite that being the number of points that the Green Bay Packers allowed to […]
No one can escape blame for the Packers’ offensive line failure
The Packers’ loss to the Vikings came down to an easily foreseeable problem: Brian Flores was going to blitz like a madman, and the Packers’ offensive line was going to struggle to stop him. Better lines than the Packers have failed to slow Flores’ logical insanity, and don’t get me wrong: when I call him […]
You cannot overstate how bad the Packers’ offensive line was on Sunday
I just had the misfortune of watching the Green Bay Packers’ offense on All-22, the third (and final) time I’ve watched the Minnesota Vikings game so far. To make this short: The Packers’ offensive line looked like a second-rate high school team, passing stunts off to no one, turning guys loose when they had to […]
Packers Film Room: Christian Watson doubles-up
We’ll be dissecting the film on the overall Green Bay Packers offense & passing game later (we already did a little of it with numbers), but, for now, I just wanted to take a few minutes and talk about the game Christian Watson had. With only the Monday Night game left to play, Watson currently […]
Packers Discussion: 1st impressions of Jonathan Gannon’s defense
I’m sure that we’re going to talk about the offensive line a lot this week, so I just want to give this space for people to fire off their thoughts on another major subject: the first game that Jonathan Gannon called on the defensive side of the ball. For the most part, I thought the […]
Packers open Week 2 as favorites against Jets
The Green Bay Packers may have made history with their collapse against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1, but that does not mean that they are going to be underdogs in Week 2. Indeed, the opening lines at FanDuel sportsbook have the Packers installed as 4.5-point favorites for their road trip to play the New […]
Green Bay Packers News: The Matt LaFleur discourse has only just begun
When Matt LaFleur took three points off the board on Sunday afternoon in Minneapolis, the goal was clear: he wanted his Green Bay Packers to go score a touchdown and take a commanding two-possession lead over the Minnesota Vikings. Instead, wiping out a field goal meant his offense needed convert a 4th-and-1 to keep the […]
Packers Snap Counts, Week 1: Kaleb Johnson absent on offense
Below are the snap counts from the Green Bay Packers’ season-opening loss to the Minnesota Vikings, position-by-position. These numbers only count contributions to the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. Let’s dig into what the Packers showed in Week 1. Quarterback Jordan Love played every single snap of the game, but if the offensive […]
Packers Week 1: Stats from Green Bay’s season-opening loss
Recently, SumerSports rolled out SumerLive, which tracks a lot of tremendous data live for each game. It’s something I’ve enjoyed clicking around, and I did a test drive for the third preseason game. It seemed to go well, so we’re keeping it rolling into the regular season. Is this a game anyone on this site […]
Packers Winners and Losers: Week 1 vs. the Vikings
Week 1 is officially over for the Green Bay Packers, and I don’t ever want to speak of it again. The team traveled to Minnesota to face off against the Vikings on Sunday, and things were going well for the Packers until The Spiral™ began. After leading for most of the game, things fell apart, […]
The Vikings laid out the blueprint for the Packers’ offensive line
The Green Bay Packers’ offensive line performed extremely poorly on Sunday, as quarterback Jordan Love dropped back 46 times and completed only 21 passes (46 percent), getting hit on virtually every true dropback of the game. While the Packers posted 22 points through the first three quarters of the game, they averaged just 3.8 yards […]
Packers-Vikings Final Score: Green Bay collapses again in 39-22 loss
Matt LaFleur talked during the offseason about his team needing to be better in closing down games. Whatever he did to try to make that happen didn’t seem to work, at least not for the first week of the 2026 season. The Green Bay Packers led the Minnesota Vikings 22-10 early in the third quarter. […]
Packers vs. Vikings Week 1 Game Discussion
It’s about time for kickoff on the Green Bay Packers’ 2026 regular season! The Packers are just a few hours’ drive west of Green Bay today, facing the Minnesota Vikings to open both the season schedule and their slate of divisional games all in one. Will the Packers get a big divisional win on the […]
Rapoport: NFL attempting to get their hands on the Josh Jacobs video
NFL Network/ESPN’s Ian Rapoport reported on Sunday morning that the NFL is attempting to obtain the alleged video from the incident that led to Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs being charged with battery and criminal damage to property. Here is what Rapoport said, specifically: The NFL wants to interview Josh Jacobs. That will […]
Packers vs. Vikings, Week 1: Game time, how to watch, odds, & more
The Green Bay Packers are finally about to kick off the 2026 regular season, bringing an end to eight months of waiting since their last game. Indeed, the team’s last game was on January 10th, eight months and three days before they will open up the 2026 season on the road against a divisional opponent. […]
Trey Smack is a Big Deal
A lot of people made fun of the Green Bay Packers for drafting a kicker, but there are two immutable facts about kickers. You can acquire a kicker like any other player via free agency, or as a UDFA, or through the draft. Free agency will require paying the kicker a lot of money for […]
Packers elevate 2 from practice squad for Week 1 vs. Vikings
The Green Bay Packers have announced that they’ve elevated two players, receiver Bo Melton and linebacker Kristian Welch, from the practice squad going into their Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The Melton move was expected, but the addition of Welch from the practice squad also means that it’s likely that linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper, […]
Remembering a Random Game: The Minnesota Vikings
The Green Bay Packers are set to open the season against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday for the 132nd matchup in the history of the storied rivalry. I’m going to try something fun this season and look back on a random game every week by picking a number between 1 and however many times the […]
Packers sign Tucker Kraft to 4-year contract extension on eve of season opener
The Green Bay Packers wanted a deal done. Tucker Kraft wanted a deal done. And so, just ahead of the start of the 2026 NFL regular season, a deal is indeed done, and it appears to be a great deal for both sides. Tucker Kraft is now under contract with the Packers through the 2030 […]
Packers release WR Bo Melton, intend to retain him on practice squad
Just over 48 hours ahead of their season opener, the Green Bay Packers have made a mildly shocking roster move. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Packers are releasing wide receiver Bo Melton on Friday. Melton has been a mainstay of the Packers’ special teams units for the past two-plus years and has remained […]
Packers Key to Victory: Chuck it deep
Week 1 is weird for a variety of reasons. Teams change so much throughout the offseason – additions, subtractions, hiring, firings, turn turn turn – so looking at numbers/film from the previous season won’t always shed light on the current season. That being said, I was combing through some stats over at NFL Pro and […]
Packers list Bako-Bewele & Banks as questionable against Vikings
The Green Bay Packers do appear to have game-time decisions on their hands with a pair of their starting offensive linemen. On Friday’s formal injury report for the team’s season opener against the Minnesota Vikings, the Packers have given both left guard Aaron Banks and right tackle Zach Bako-Bewele the questionable status. Bako-Bewele has been […]
Jordan Love is the least-sacked active NFL quarterback
While looking through the Green Bay Packers’ 2025 stats to get ready for the start of the 2026 season, something interesting caught my eye. I noticed that in his 15 games last season, Packers quarterback Jordan Love was sacked merely 21 times, a sack rate of just 4.57%. That seemed pretty darn low to me, […]
Packers got help from long-time OL coach Harry Hiestand in camp
The Packers’ offensive line got some additional help from a long-time college and pro offensive line coach. According to reporting from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Tom Silverstein, Harry Hiestand spent training camp with the Packers in what appeared to be a consultant-style role. Hiestand is about as decorated as an offensive line coach can be, […]
