Packers Pre Game
 
This is the muthereffing non-division game Ive had marked on my calendar all year.

Primetime (obligatory "I hate primetime cause we never show up" statement. First) game....against a solid team, with a good QB and a great HC per himself ([url=http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/11/14/mike-mccarthy-im-a-highly-successful-nfl-coach/]Mike McCarthy on fixing Packers: I’m a highly successful NFL coach | ProFootballTalk[/url]).

Dogfight at home with both teams scrambling for playoff position...folks this is what November football is all about. Im f*cking hyped!!!

Lets get this look ahead thread going NOW!

Folks, these are the bitches who knocked us out the playoffs last year, its time for some revenge and the Packers are ripe for the pickin.

What you think? I think the game is gonna be all bout matchups.

First, Im concerned with the play of Fuller last game...and he is getting matched up with Cobb and Adams in the slot. Id say get the rook a chance to recover, BUT have a back up plan.

Jordan Reed and Crowder versus the Packers slot, linebacker and safety coverage. This is where we should fest....middle of the field, up the seam.

Im getting f*cking pumped!

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
There are only two things that concern me about this game.

1. Aaron Rodgers. He is a future HOF QB who can have a huge game at any time.

2. The fact that the Packers are currently underdogs in this game and some in the Press are predicting that we'll run them out of the stadium. The Skins players need to keep all of their focus on this game and not read their own press clippings. The Packers are being disrespected by the media and I believe they'll be charged up for this game.

This one scares me the most out of all the games left on our schedule. They have essentially the same team that waxed us right?

Schneed10 11-15-2016 10:45 AM

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
I agree this game makes me nervous. Because their line isn't blocking poorly, Rodgers is just missing dudes he usually doesn't. Nelson isn't the same coming off the injury and Cobb is still working back from the hamstring. But Davante Adams is pretty damn good himself. It feels an awful lot like if Aaron Rodgers finds his form they're right back to being the same offense.

On defense they're making mental gaffes. They just straight blew coverages against Tennessee. But I feel like that's mental. They could clean that up and really give us hell.

That's not to say we can't score on them because our offense is highly capable, but we should go into this game assuming Rodgers will be Rodgers again. We have to plan to win a shootout.

1. Yup. Yup. Yup. Aaron Rodgers has been not been the Aaron Rodgers of old this season, but, if he gets untracked early, he is very capable of putting this team on his back and carrying it to victory.

2. This one doesn't bug so much. I think this team is a group of grinders. "One down, seven to go" was the statement coming off the field Sunday. I doubt this Skins' team is taking the team that knocked them out of the play-offs last year lightly. In fact, my hope is that the Skins shake the monkey off their back and blow these MF's out. I just don't think this is a group that is particularly worried about press clippings.


[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;1155516]This one scares me the most out of all the games left on our schedule. They have essentially the same team that waxed us right?[/quote]

Yes and no. Same QB and WR's. Same basic D. No Eddie Lacy, but Starks ran VERY effectively against us in that game. They also sacked Cousins six times and we sucked on 3rd down.

I've watched them a couple of times and, while they are not a BAD team, they aren't playing like a GOOD team. Something seems "broken" this year. It's not like us - who seem to be on the verge of breaking out. They seem to be on the verge of complete collapse. Four teams (Cowboys, Atlanta, Indi, & Tenn) scored 30 or more points against them.

This is a beatable team. We have to play as well or better than we played against the Vikings. I think we do that. I think we do it big and set up a very important Thanksgivings day game against the Cowboys.

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
scared and nervous heh?

Im glad we are playing a meaningful game against a thirsty opponent.

We need to be out for revenge...Packers are staggering, lets knock them the fuck out!

More of Cravens playing close to the line and rushing the QB PLEASE!

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
S'ua Cravens is our Wild Card. Use Cravens to spy Rodgers. Rodgers may escape the rush and run but he'll pay the price when he does. It's all about disrupting Rodgers' game. Make Rodgers aware that he could be facing a big hit from Cravens on every passing down. I'm making this my [I]Ignorant Fan's Key to the Game[/I].

This HAS to be a statement game for the team in THEIR minds and it should be. Even though they have struggled as of late, no one is counting GB out of the playoff race...so beating them gets rid of several monkeys on their back! Beating a good team, also the team that ended your season last year in the playoffs, beating a future HOF QB, and winning a damn primetime game for a change!!!

lol ... Just saw the ESPN power rankings. We are 20th. Behind Minnesota (5th), the Eagles (12th), the Bengals (17th), and the Giants (18th) ... So I guess we just caught everybody on an off-week. Hey at least they have us ahead of the Ravens and Cleveland (They also have Detroit, who we beat and are currently leading their division, at 26th).

Yeah ... not to worried about "press clippings."

Always need a back up plan, but I'm not so concerned about Fuller, he showed in the second half he had the guts in him to come back from getting beaten. Hope he comes out hungry and ready!

As for the Packers, the only thing really worrying me is their run defense, ranked 4th rushing D (everything else is average or below average). The line needs to have another big game, if McVay establishes the run game, we'll crush them, we just moved the ball really well against a top defense, we can handle the Packers. If they shut our run game down, it can turnout to be a close one, but we'll win this one.

These are not your Daddy's redskins, We are better and it's not like years past when I would see up being picked to win and automatically assume we will lose, this is a young hungry team that for the first time since I was in High School (class of 95') that we are actually better than other teams and not just getting hot or lucky to win.

I refuse to get hyped for this game. If we are the same ol' Skins, we won't show up yet again for a primetime game and the Packers will easily beat us to completely turn around their season. It's a classic trap game. Pack just got blown out and we pulled out a solid win against a solid team.

I want to believe this year is different and if they want to show it well then Sunday night is literally the prime time to do it. Show the world we're not the same ol' Skins.

Only three home games left. Gotta make them count. It is a very winnable game, but they seriously have to figure out how to get in the end zone, and not settle for field goals. I like suspense in my movies, not my Redskins football games.

I hope they aren't thinking too much about the short rest and Dallas on Turkey Day. I'm sure they'll say all the right things, but it has to be in the back of their minds.

Haha I'll admit it's a pretty big IF ^^

Let me rephrase:

-We averaged 4,6 yards per carry last week, against a tough defense.

-The only aspect of the Packers worrying me is their tough run defense.

-So if they shut our run game down, we can win but it'll be close. If we somehow manage to establish some kind of/a little bit of running game, we could crush them.

The playoff loss last year showed everyone how week our secondary really was. To address it, we signed Norman.

Even being our best defensive player he's had a pretty quiet year. This is the game he takes over and makes the difference we signed him to make.

JNo shows up big and we take this win to roll into the playoffs.

Quiet for a CB is a good thing, means he's shutting guys down. He only created 2 turnovers (1 INT and 1 FF) but would have had 2 INTs against the Bengals had his wrist been healthy.

I'm happy with him, he's the type of corner I like, rather him than a Sherman having more INTs but getting beaten more often and having poor tackling technique. (and being a dirty player but that's not my point).

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
I saw a video on csnmidatlantic.com where Brian Mitchell was asked what he would do to improve the Skins performance in the Red Zone. Brian answered that the Skins should reduce the number of plays for the Red Zone and practice those fewer plays until they can run all of them to perfection.

Admitting that he is "Old School", Brian said that he is a believer in running the ball in the Red Zone and, as such, he would like to see more three TE sets in the Red Zone.

Now for the ignorant part of the post where I express my one thought on the topic. I would like Jay Gruden to ask for a volunteer who wants to knock the crap out of someone on the other team as a Fullback in the Red Zone. Someone like Big Swaggy or Trent Murphy to hit up in there and move some people.

Re: Packers Pre Game
 
Should be another close one. Look at our games this year? They're all coming down to the very last drive it seems. It would be nice to drop 40+ points on these guys and beat them while they're down. But this team doesn't work that way. It's always something that slacks part of the game that slows us down. Last week it was both the offense and defense in the 2nd q. Until they show us something different, I expect more of the same.

If it's 2nd and goal at the 5, don't come out in some stupid formation that doesn't even have a running back. A McVay Special. You have to at least threaten the run and have play action be available.

At the same time, I am all for the winning this one in a close game and coming with the complete and total beat down four days latter.

TWO beat downs would be even better.
