You know why Grant has 20 more carries in wins? Because we run the ball at the END of the game, in garbage time just like we did against the Lions. Before the fourth quarter when we practically had won the game Grant had under 20 carries--the garbage time put him over.

20+ carries for Grant, we win the game. Quit dodging the facts. Garbage time? Give me a break. The team KNOWS we are going to run, yet we get good production. Make up all the excuses you want.

Facts.
Are.
Facts.

20+ carries for Grant increase our chances of winning the game.

Kind of misleading. I agree that Grant or whichever RB needs to get his touches. But in many cases the reason they are getting 20+ is because we are winning.

Garbage time stats is crap though. Running against a team, that knows we are going to run is hard. If that is garbage, then all of Rodgers passing stats are garbage, because teams know we are passing.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

lol 🙂 hey at least I post information instead of just saying crap. Even though it might diffuse my point a little bit.

I know winning isn't as simple at giving Grant 5 carries a quarter = win. My point. Before we oust Ryan Grant is this. Give the man a damn chance to succeed!

Running does this.
OL gets to HIT instead of get hit.
Offense eats clock, which in turn keeps your defense fresher.
It gives you another weapon for defenses to think about.
Mike McCarthy gets too freaked out when Grant gets 14 yards on 5-7 carries and quits. WHEN, now get this. Mike McCarthy is the one who said that the RB needs a plethora of carries in the ZBS. You give him the rock often early in the game and those 2, 3 yard carries become first down carries. Yet, we don't run much early?

ahman Green was one of the most violent physical backs in Green Bay history....and that collision running style has left him with nothing to give a team, IMO. One of my favorite players, but past his time at this moment.

How great of a story would it be if he came back and was amazing??? Not saying its gonna happen, but Ahman was always a packer, and if he works out well I say play him.

Once more the systemic nostalgia on this board rears its head. I think Ted Thompson should assemble a 2005 reunion team. Or whatever year fans on this board choose. Just to see how awesome it would be.

He's an an ex-player for our team. There's a reason for that. Kindly let the sleeping dog lie.

This.

Also, Green with that current o-line = Green injured, again.

The real problem (as much as I would enjoy an upgrade @ RB) is the shitty o=line. Bring in all the hot RBs you want, it won't fix the line.

beast (12h) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
