I believe that this team will develop into dominance. I very much believe that our receiving core will be air raid worthy, I just think they'll develop better taking small steps in that direction. Part of that will be Musgrave developing a connection with JL10 to come back to him when he's in trouble and find the open spot. That will probably continue to develop into at least his third year. I won't predict that Tucker Kraft won't eventually be better, I think they'll both be very good. Lots of learning to connect with different targets yet, but the depth we've got is very much necessary.

We can't afford to neglect the running game. Wilson needs more touches. I'm not giving up on Goodson, either. Obviously we want #33 back at 100%, and we have to get run blocking sorted and not just for #28.

"It wasn't a hostile environment."

So you couldn't get tickets to the game?

The most hopeful thing is that his accuracy improved right when they needed it in the 4th quarter. Not really expecting a first year starter to have great accuracy right out of the gate. The entire offense seems to really need time to settle in; this week it took way too long. But the hopeful things will make it interesting to watch until we know whether the accuracy on the long ball will improve as he grows into the role. Accuracy really wasn't an issue in college; it was more his decision making and we're seeing that he has improved in that arena. Only time will tell, but really hoping the accuracy issues will improve as he and the young pass catchers continue to work to get on the same page.

"I’m not the fly in the ointment.
But when a gun has accuracy problems;
It’s considered Down Right DANGEROUS.
And Nothing with Accuracy Problems
will be dependable."

Pure poetry, but while it's true that accuracy is crucial in specific contexts, it's important to consider the nature of the task or tool in question. Not everything relies on pinpoint accuracy for its functionality. For example, many everyday objects and tools may have minor accuracy issues without posing a significant risk or inconvenience.

Some devices or systems are designed with built-in error margins to account for variations and still perform their intended functions adequately. In certain situations, perfect accuracy may not even be achievable or necessary (see Kapp, Joe or Blanda, George).

Additionally, the degree of danger associated with accuracy problems in a gun depends on the specific use and context. A slight inaccuracy in a recreational shooting scenario may not be as critical as in a law enforcement or military context, where precision is paramount. Some would argue guns themselves are down right dangerous. Others would say people with guns are downright dangerous. Some people are afraid of the dark.

While accuracy is undoubtedly important in many scenarios, it's not accurate to claim that 'nothing with accuracy problems will be dependable' in all situations. The level of importance placed on accuracy should be assessed relative to the specific task or tool in question. My son peed on every toilet seat he could possibly soil, while fully intending to miss. He is dependable.

Finally, in your chosen vocation, sh, did you improve your job skills overtime? Did you become more adept at your job based upon experience and ongoing learning? Is it possible for that to happen, or did your entry level skill metastasize and seal your fate?

(Responding to stockholder) ...and Aaron Rodgers is still hurt.

Brett Favre threw interceptions like they were candy at a parade. He's in the Hall of Fame. Keep that in mind.

What you don’t understand is that he is playing with mostly rookies and 2nd year pass catchers and are missing his poise, nice spiral passes and always having his eyes downfield. In addition, to knowing when to stay in the pocket and when to move. Never rattled and only one INT to 7 TD’s. Any team would take that from a 1st year starting QB.

And exactly why did the Balloon pop with Carr injury. Check the stats of Carr and Winston they were virtually the same. So what again as usual are you effing talking about?

I've said exactly those words!

There are only about a million things to be learned from just the past two games. I hope this young team is studying that film like crazy, and puts this experience to good use Thursday ...

GPG!!

2 second round picks, for 4 plays. i'd call that a front office steal.

The Aaron Rodgers trade was like going in for cancer surgery, and then selling your tumor for 20 million dollars. Thanks Dr Gutekunst.

Love has thrown more TD passes than anybody on the Packers, yes. But Cousins and Tagovailoa have 9 and 8 scores respectively and Jordan is tied for 3rd with Mahomes. But Mahomes didn't finish the game yesterday they had such a big lead. And the yards and completion percentage from Love are far lower than the rest of that top group. But yes, his ability to get the ball into the endzone has been exciting in games 1 and 2 and for the 4th quarter yesterday.

Agreed. There are folks who expect a carbon copy at QB right out of the box.
That ignores the development that other Packers QB's like Bart Starr, Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers all went through.

Love's attitude is what impresses me. He wants to win and he doesn't let the situation get to him mentally.

He needs to work on his deep accuracy but he's doing just fine. Oh, by the way, three of his starting offensive linemen were hurt, his top running back and his top receiver.

LH,

indeed!

Hopefully this sigh of relief lasts through Thursday's game. 3-1 and solidly in first place would freak the whole league out.

Did you happen to notice the Lions stopped the run and beat the hell out of the Falcons? Sue seemed like making Ridder throw and sacking him 7 times worked for them.

Now make your excuses.

It was not the shutdown that we wanted from the defense, but there were three possible outcomes that would have been much worse than a 46-yard field goal attempt: 1.) a touchdown; 2.) a shorter field goal attempt; and 3.) a chip shot field goal with the clock bled down to almost nothing. I was feeling good about the Packers' chances even if the Saints made that 46-yard field goal.

Remember the Packers got the ball back with a Minute 35 seconds left and TO's left. Who says with the leg Carlson has we couldn't as well get into FG range if needed?

Comfort? COMFORT?!?

There was nothing comfortable about any of this, lol. Look at the team injury report.

I don't expect Thursday to be especially comfortable, either. There are certainly lots of things to improve that would improve their chances ...

We could always give him a bunch of easy safe very short passes that get us nowhere, like a number if teams do.

Well, since he's averaging 12.5 yards/completion, I'd say as soon as he gets his completion percentage up over 60 it's going to be worrisome for the defenses we face.

great joke, fitting......

AR was only when it counts off with all of his throws. No chance a hero like Love could be worse

Fully expected as our new qb-1 grows with HIS team!!

you must be fun at parties

I wonder a little about the assumption that the Packers don't win unless Carr is injured. They were playing pretty simlarly in terms of % completions. They each threw for about 100 yards. Carr had only thrown for one TD and thrown 2 picks in the first two games. He was completing passes at a slightly higher rate than Winston (65.6% to 62.5%). So I don't think it's a given that having Carr finish the game would have made the difference here. He hasn't been that effective this season. I heard another analyst say there wasn't much difference between how Carr and Winston were playing.

Of course Love still "needs correcting" (has to grow into the role) and of course there will be losses and some will be on him. But he wasn't responsible for all the dumb penalties, nor did he cause ST to allow a score. Nor did he cause the drops. He did have some issues with accuracy but I didn't see that as the overarching takeaway from the game.

They can also be one first down away from 3-0. But Atlanta could not count on the in game injuries and poor play by Dillon. I’ll say it again, you play with the warriors left standing on the field of play. Had the NOS FG been good who is to say that Carlson could not have hit from 55 or more? He was drafted to be a strong legged kicker…

Check stats of Carr and Winston in game virtually the same so did it really matter than Carr got injured. Up for discussion I am sure!

Everybody here is keenly aware that there's SO much to fix! Sloppy mistakes, boneheaded stuff really. There's a vision of what this team CAN be once all that's behind them and solutions are implemented.

How long will that take? I'm not making any predictions about that, but I plan to watch it happen ...

Winston was besser than Carr and Love would made another TD, if they hit the FG

Get some Proactiv and get over it!!!

Rock solid. Jordan Love seems right on schedule. It was going to take about half the season for he and his teammates to start getting into a comfort zone on O.

I’m certain he’s wanting some of Sunday’s throws back, but that’s all part of learning.

Really liking Musgrave, Reed & Wicks.

You mean you cherry picked your favorite Love stat. There's a bunch that don't stand next to Tua. But Tua has much better weapons. When they get(almost) everybody back and drop 40 on somebody we'll talk. As for now I believe his inaccuracy will lead to a multi pick game. I want to see how he responds to that.

Oh yeah many inexprienced posters wanted him cut after year two.

In terms of a player that's "hungry," in the practices I went to NOBODY was hungrier than Nixon!! He's a player that can fire up the whole team. They have great comraderie and that can really help, but his part can be HUGE.

Nixon will get the attention of any defense when he comes on the field because they'll expect he's there to specifically get the ball. His productivity gives him the potential to be a really nice decoy....just like Tyler Ervin, who played way more snaps when he didn't get the ball than snaps where he did.

That said: if you start making your nickel back a bigger part of your offense, what does that say about your offensive skill-position guys?
