The Packers will stick with Brandon McManus
Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus is struggling. Outside of the red zone this year, he’s just three of nine on field goals. His overall field goal percentage of just 64.7 percent is the worst in the NFL among qualifiers. Despite going 20 of 21 in 2024, his first year in Green Bay, McManus is […]
Packers’ passing game stifled itself against Eagles
It’s a short week and I’ve been busy, so let’s skip the preamble and just dive in. In this space, we take a look at what the Green Bay Packers’ passing game did in the last game. Let’s get to the breakdown of Monday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles. From a numbers perspective, this […]
Packers Week 11 TV Broadcast Map: Another limited area for Giants game
This week, the Green Bay Packers’ game will have another relatively limited broadcast footprint across the United States. The Packers travel to play the New York Giants in Sunday’s early time slot, with the game to be broadcast on FOX. However, with CBS having the afternoon doubleheader, FOX has the rights to only broadcast a […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Matt LaFleur facing plenty of questions
I really don’t know where I land on the “fire Matt LaFleur” issue. Should the Packers pull the trigger or not? Can LaFleur fix this? If so, what will it take? If not, what should happen? I don’t know the answer to any of these questions. But I get why people are asking. It all […]
Jameis Winston may start for New York Giants against Green Bay Packers
One thing that we now know about the Green Bay Packers’ upcoming game against the New York Giants on Sunday afternoon: Russell Wilson will not be the Giants’ starting quarterback. On Wednesday morning, the Giants revealed that they are making Jameis Winston their number two quarterback behind rookie Jaxson Dart, moving Winston up ahead of […]
Packers Depth Chart Update: Green Bay debuts new defensive packages
We got some answers about who the Green Bay Packers want to be against a true championship-contending talent this week. What would the offense look like without Tucker Kraft? We got that answer. How would the run defense respond after the Carolina Panthers’ loss? We got that answer. Let’s dive into the Packers depth chart […]
Jaire Alexander to step away from Eagles, contemplate retirement
When the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Green Bay Packers, they did so with some fresh faces who were just added to the 53-man roster, including Brandon Graham, Jaelan Phillips and Michael Carter II. Interestingly, one of the players who didn’t make the trip to Green Bay was cornerback Jaire Alexander, a former Packer who was […]
Asante Samuel Jr. signs with the Pittsburgh Steelers
Former Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., who took a visit with the Green Bay Packers recently, has signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers’ practice squad on Tuesday. Often, a practice squad signing for a veteran player just allows the player to practice with the team for an extra week before he’s eventually called up […]
Packers place Elgton Jenkins on IR, bring up Kristian Welch
The Green Bay Packers have officially put center Elgton Jenkins on the injured reserve after he fractured his lower leg in the Monday Night Football loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Without Jenkins, Sean Rhyan, who was previously rotating in at right guard, will start for the Packers at center. In a corresponding roster move, Green […]
The Packers’ offensive line is only going to get worse
The Green Bay Packers’ offense is sputtering. They have no idea how to handle split-safety looks that take the extra coverage defenders into the deeper portion of the field. So far, head coach Matt LaFleur’s answers this year have been to check down the ball in the passing game and to run the football. Unfortunately, […]
Week 11 NFL Power Rankings: Packers rightfully tumble
A couple of months ago, the Green Bay Packers were on top of the world. After starting off 2-0 by beating down the Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders, it was hard to find someone who didn’t think the Packers were going to be a top-three team in the NFL, based on power rankings. Then the […]
Packers Week 11 Odds: Green Bay favored big for road game at Giants
When the Green Bay Packers finally kicked off against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football in Week 10, they were underdogs for the first time all season according to most sportsbooks. Late money came in on the Eagles, pushing the line in their favor in the hours before the game started, and the result […]
Packers Week 10 Winners and Losers vs. the Eagles
I’m starting to think the Green Bay Packers may have a problem. After facing off against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football and losing a 10-7 snoozefest, the Packers are now 5-3-1 and 3rd place in the NFC North behind the Detroit Lions and, wait for it: the Chicago Bears. With injuries abound in […]
Aaron Banks has been an expensive mistake for the Packers
Aaron Banks was supposed to be the key that unlocked the Packers’ ground game. A hulking 6-foot-5 and 325 pounds, Banks’ arrival courtesy of a four-year, $77 million contract was supposed to free up Elgton Jenkins to move to center while Banks held down the left guard spot. Neither of those moves has worked. Jenkins […]
Savion Williams fails to find the field despite injuries at wide receiver
It was no secret that the Packers had issues at wide receiver coming into their Monday Night Football matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Between injuries old and new, romeo Doubs was just about their only healthy wide receiver, and even he left the game with an injury. But when faced with significant depth issues, what […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Packers looking like pretenders, not contenders
Iron pyrite, or fool’s gold, is easy to distinguish from the real thing if you know what you’re looking at. It’s brassy, more shiny than lustrous, and appears in nature as something more akin to a crystal than the rounded nuggets or flakes of gold. There’s another key difference: under pressure, gold is malleable and […]
Report: Elgton Jenkins has a fractured leg
ESPN’s Rob Demovsky is reporting that center Elgton Jenkins, who was carted to the locker room during the first half of the Green Bay Packers’ loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, has fractured his lower leg. Initially, Jenkins’ injury was called an ankle injury by the Packers on Monday night, but Demovsky’s sources claim that Jenkins’ […]
Packers Week 10 Snap Counts vs. Eagles: Bo Melton is a WR
Another week, another low-scoring effort from the Green Bay Packers’ offense. It feels like Groundhog Day around here, and things are starting to remind me of the end of the Mike McCarthy era. But before we get all of our complaints in about the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, let’s check in on the Packers’ […]
LaFleur: Packers’ run game was ‘effective’ vs. Eagles
After the Green Bay Packers’ loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said something that made my jaw drop. After watching his running backs combine for 22 carries for 76 yards, just 3.5 yards per carry, he stated, “The running game was solid. I thought it was effective.” He might be the […]
The Eagles called out the Packers’ failed 4th down play
Before the Green Bay Packers lost the game with a 64-yard field goal miss from kicker Brandon McManus, the offense’s previous drive stalled out at midfield because of a turnover on downs. To add insult to injury, the Philadelphia Eagles’ defense knew exactly what was coming on that fourth down. On 4th and 1, the […]
The Packers’ story about Brandon McManus isn’t lining up
You might have missed it, but during the Monday Night Football broadcast, ESPN’s crew claimed that Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus said that this week was the first time he’s been “semi-healthy” since his quad injury first occurred. That certainly hasn’t been the narrative that the Packers have pushed in recent weeks. Whenever Green […]
Packers-Eagles Final Score: Another dismal offensive display
The wheels have officially fallen off the Green Bay Packers’ 2025 season. A 5-3-1 record is nothing to scoff at, at least in theory, but it is the way in which the Packers have lost their last two games — all three of their losses, in fact — that reveal massive questions that this team […]
NFC Playoff Picture: Green Bay Packers drop division lead with loss
The Green Bay Packers entered the week as the leader in the NFC North and the fourth place team in the NFC. With their loss to the first place Philadelphia Eagles, the Packers have dropped the lead in the NFC North and now barely cling to a playoff spot. The new leader in the NFC […]
It’s time to have a serious discussion about Matt LaFleur
The Green Bay Packers built a roster that was supposed to be one of the best in the NFC, and one that was going to compete for a Super Bowl after making a big swing for Micah Parsons. Instead, the team looked completely inept against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, falling 10-7 in […]
Elgton Jenkins carted to Packers locker room with ankle injury
On the Green Bay Packers’ final drive of the first half of Monday Night Football against the Philadelphia Eagles, which ended in a Jordan Love sack-fumble, the Packers lost their starting center, Elgton Jenkins, on a sack earlier that drive. Jenkins was able to stand gingerly on his leg following the injury, but he was […]
