One game, folks. One game.

Who ever is open throw the ball to. It doesn’t matter . Throw to the open guy. With all the receivers we have someone is open

I like some drag routes across the middle.

We are too good to have a lull in the offense. Keep moving the chains.
We need 8-12 more offensive plays a game vs the other teams.

There is an inherent problem with a "go to" WR. As we saw with Favre and later Rodgers, the QB tends to focus in on just one receiver when it is "crunch time". The opposing teams know this, and put extra coverage on that WR, often doing double coverage and making the chances of a successful pass less likely. Check out the championship game against the Brady led Bucs a few years ago. The Packers had to settle for a FG during a crucial part of the game because Rodgers would only throw to Adams, although he was swarmed by defenders. LaFleur finally settled for a FG, and fans were angry and frustrated. But when the heat is on, and the offense becomes QB to WR1 or nothing, it shrinks the field and is more likely to lead to a bad outcome.
Spread the ball around. Be ready for the QB to run if necessary. But concentrate on only one WR? No.

The Lions had the ball 11 mins more than the Packers. The lLions ran 65 plays we had 47 plays.
Each team had 9 possessions

That play count needs to change.

Looking back at the game all defensive to win that game

We really had one healthy starter, Doubs and one likely new starter playing in his first NFL game. There was a lot of mix and match going on. One possible target, Musgrave, seemed to lose out to the need to bolster the run via Banks and later Fitzgerald. So lots of 12 personnel but limited routes run and lots of situational use of the WRs as a whole, probably exacerbated by Golden struggling to block adequately, reducing his time out there. Things will settle somewhat, but for now expect a lot of situational rotations.

Christian Watson has been extended for one year for $13 million. That's more than I would've expected for a player who gets injured so often, but I don't know how they figure these things. I love the idea of Watson and Matthew Golden being on the field at the same time. Now that has become a possibility, not just later this year, but for all of 2026 as well.

I would like to see a #1 WR emerge. I think it would add some continuity and rhythm to the offense. Given how much Jordan Love has been spreading the ball around since he became QB, I'm not worried about him forcing the ball to his #1 WR.

By committee - is the only way that the Packers can go - for now. And probably for the rest of the season. Due to this group not being an overly robust and durable one.

Although I believe that a hierarchy of Receivers is preferred over a committee. As a committee is not optimal over the long-term and will eventually be antithetical to the career interests of any Receiver. If so, then player dissolution and departure is assured.

#1 WR - #2 WR - #3 WR? What difference does it make. You throw to who's open, has good hands, has separation from the DB, etc. We have a solid WR package with C.Watson closer on the horizon each week. I can't fathom what a defense will do when you put 4/5 WRs, slots, TEs, and a RB out on the play. Block well and JL should do surgery and cut the opponent apart! Thursday is the day - GO PACK GO against the Redskins!

They have the weapons they need in the passing game. You don't need to have this straight depth chart that gives teams keys to what you are trying to do. With this group, especially when Watson returns, can attack every corner of the field and can mask their intentions behind almost any formation. Fans want that go to guy because it makes them feel comfortable but I prefer an offense that can put the ball anywhere in any situation.

Parsons is that rare player that makes everyone else better just by being in the game.

He's that rare player that brings the Lombardi trophy to a team of elite athletes that were under achieving.

Why not both?

Good passing attacks hit the open man and target a lot of guys to force a D to cover everybody.

Having a solid #1 threat can break any D and change a game.

Let's have Golden develop into the star everyone says he is and also have 10 guys catch two or three per game.

I hope the Packers value Doubs as much as Watson. Watson, to me, is the deep-threat fantasy that rarely comes true (due to injuries). Doubs has been very reliable.

The whole idea that a team "must have" a #1 receiver is actually counter-productive. It makes it easier for the defense to plan how to stop them. You just "take away" the #1 (double team, bump, bracket, etc.)

Is it possible most teams have one player who is way more talented than the rest of the corps?

I see GB with several guys who are excellent receivers. I'd rather have a whole group of talented WR's than just one #1 guy and a bunch of other "JAG's".

I see that with Minnesota, they have Jefferson and then a bunch of "Just A Guy" types. Addison is ok when he isn't being arrested and subsequently suspended, but the rest are pretty "meh".

I'll take GB's group over most of the NFL's personnel. And they're young, so they may have some growing pains. But as a group, it's hard to stop all of them, and they're improving.

When they get Watson back on the field, it's going to be exciting. So many options.

Who is our #1 WR? Not Jayden Reed, unless he can play with a broken collarbone.

At this point, it's Doubs. He's been targeted more, has more yards, than any other WR. He's averaging almost 20 yards/ reception. Wicks has been targeted less, has one more reception for about 20 fewer yards than Doubs.

After that.....we could hope that Golden is ready to play more snaps. Savion Williams might get more snaps. We could run 2 TE sets more so we only need 2 WRs on the field.

Our leading receiver, btw, is Kraft. He's been targeted the most, has the most yards, the most TDs, the most first downs.

When is Watson coming back?
