Brandon Jackson: From Weakness To Strength
I’ve been reading a lot of season recaps and overviews and one thing keeps popping up. Brandon Jackson and the great job he does in pass protection. Does anyone else remember how TERRIBLE this kid was his rookie year? I mean, there were a few times in the preseason of ’07 where I thought he [...]
Handling The Cardinals’ Blitz
The Packers can expect to see a healthy dose of blitzing from the Cardinals on Sunday which, believe it or not, favors the Packers. That’s right.
