Rodgers Is Player Of The Week

Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will be named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the San Francisco 49ers. Rodgers finished the Packers’ 34-16 victory over San Francisco 21-of-30 for 298 yards and three touchdowns. Perhaps more impressively, and indicative of the roll Rodgers has been on of late, is [...]

Packers Talking The Talk Despite Setbacks

Cullen Jenkins

Everyone is a little frustrated the Green Bay Packers can’t quite get over the hump, including the players, but while the Packers could have won every game they played this season, only two teams have gone through an NFL regular season undefeated. There have been some close losses. There was the missed opportunity to make [...]

Packers Offensive Line Hyped, But They’re Really Not That Good

Josh Sitton

The Green Bay Packers offensive line has been getting a lot of positive hype this season, primarily because they’ve kept quarterback Aaron Rodgers off his ass, for the most part. Indeed, the Packers offensive line has improved in pass protection. They’ve allowed only 21 sacks so far this year, which is the 12th fewest in [...]

It’s Time Aaron Rodgers Entered The MVP Conversation

Aaron Rodgers

It would be a lot easier to make this argument if the Green Bay Packers had beaten the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, but it’s nonetheless time Aaron Rodgers entered the MVP conversation. Rodgers has been nothing short of spectacular over the Packers’ last three games. In fact, he’s carried a Packers offense that has little-to-no [...]

Predictions: Packers vs. Falcons

Roddy White

Shawn: I’ve said all year the Green Bay Packers would win this week’s game, and if anything, I believe even more strongly in that prediction now. The Atlanta Falcons are 8-2, sure. Everyone seems to have forgotten that they beat the Saints after Garrett Hartley missed two easy field goals that would have won the [...]

Jennings’ Increased Production Directly Related To Finley’s Demise

Greg Jennings

Green Bay Packers receiver Greg Jennings is playing some outstanding football of late. In the last five games, Jennings has 32 receptions for 520 yards and six touchdowns. Those are pretty nice numbers, especially when compared to his first five games — 14 receptions for 183 yards and three touchdowns. Additionally, Jennings’ targets have increased [...]

Stick A Fork In The Minnesota Vikings

Greg Jennings

I think we can all agree, thanks to the Green Bay Packers, we can stick a fork in the Minnesota Vikings. They’re dead. Their season is officially over after the Packers thoroughly dominated them and old man Brett Favre in a 31-3 victory at the Metrodome. None of us thought it would be as easy [...]

The Brett Favre Curse Is Broken

Brett Favre

The Green Bay Packers finally pulled out a close game and in doing so, ended the curse of Brett Favre, beating the Minnesota Vikings 28-24. The Packers sit in a tie with the Chicago Bears atop the NFC North with the Chicago Bears at 4-3. Although the Packers defense gave up plenty of yards — [...]

Predictions: Packers vs. Vikings

Brett Favre

Sarah: The key to this game will be defense. For both teams. Whether Minnesota and Douche Bag of the Century Jared Allen can knock Aaron Rodgers down as many times as they did last season, and whether the Packers can slow down Brett Favre in his second return to Lambeau Field as a Viking. Because [...]

Aaron Rodgers Not Surprised Brett Favre Is A Dick

Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre

That’s right. It’s [intlink id="35" type="category"]Minnesota Vikings[/intlink] week, and with that comes the obligatory questions for Green Bay Packers quarterback [intlink id="25" type="category"]Aaron Rodgers[/intlink] about Minnesota Vikings quarterback [intlink id="41" type="category"]Brett Favre[/intlink] and their time together in Green Bay. As has been the case with all of the questions up to this point, Rodgers handles [...]

Rodgers Good To Go, Matthews Game-Time Decision

Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers went through a full practice Friday and has been cleared to start against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Officially, he’s listed as probable on the injury report. “I thought Aaron Rodgers looked fine today at practice,” coach Mike McCarthy said. “From my perspective, I would say he’s ready to [...]

Rodgers Cleared, Returns To Practice

Aaron Rodgers

Rest easy, Green Bay Packers nation. There’s a good chance quarterback Aaron Rodgers will play against Miami on Sunday. Rodgers, who suffered a concussion against Washington, has been cleared by doctors and returned to practice on a limited basis, Thursday. The quarterback had to be cleared both in house and by an outside specialist. Unless [...]

Rodgers, Matthews, Pickett Held Out, Shields Returns

Sam Shields

As expected, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (concussion), linebacker Clay Matthews (hamstring) and defensive end Ryan Pickett (ankle) didn’t practice on Wednesday. Rodgers has a shot at playing against Miami this weekend if he passes a battery of tests to see if he’s fully recovered from the concussion he suffered against Washington. Matthews also [...]

Packers’ Stars May Play Sunday

Aaron Rodgers

The Green Bay Packers will be without tight end Jermichael Finley on Sunday, but it looks like their two biggest injured stars have a shot at playing. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who suffered a concussion on the final play of the game after a helmet-to-helmet hit, will miss some practice time this week, but hasn’t been [...]

Packers Lackluster In Loss To Redskins, Injuries Continue To Mount

Donald Lee

The Green Bay Packers did everything they could to keep the Washington Redskins in the football game for four quarters. In the end, the Redskins finally took advantage to win 16-13 on a Graham Gano 33-yard field goal in overtime. After a strong first half, the Packers offense failed to do anything of note in [...]

Packers Not Impressive In Win Over Lions

Shaun Hill

The Green Bay Packers got a win on Sunday, but their 28-26 victory over the Detroit Lions left a lot to be desired. The 0-4 Lions racked up more than 400 yards of offense in Lambeau Field and quarterback Shaun Hill threw for 331 yards and two touchdowns, largely on the strength of short passes [...]

Predictions: Packers vs. Lions

Jahvid Best

Steffen: After what feels like decades of ineptitude (oh wait, it has been decades) the Detroit Lions’ offseason roster moves had many prognosticators predicting marked improvement over last season’s two-win season. Indeed the Lions are an improved team. Led by rookie dynamo Jahvid Best, the offense has more firepower and fellow rookie defensive tackle/tank Ndamukong [...]

Help A Packers Fan Meet Brett Favre

John Limbach

This may sound like an odd request from someone who hates Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre, but I want you to help Green Bay Packers fan John Limbach win an opportunity to meet and catch a pass from the traitor himself. Why? Mostly because Limbach is competing against a bunch of Vikings fans and, as [...]

McCarthy Fails In Game And Clock Management

Mike McCarthy

The Green Bay Packers look like a poorly-coached football team again, but forget about the team-record penalties and the special teams breakdowns for a second. The Packers may have had a chance to win or tie the Chicago Bears on Monday night if it weren’t for what I would term two terrible coaching decisions by [...]

Welcome Back, Mike McCarthy’s Team

Devin Hester

Let’s be realistic. The better team did not win on Monday Night Football. Forget that the Green Bay Packers have no running game. Forget that the defense played their usual bend-but-don’t-break brand of football. The Green Bay Packers lost to the Chicago Bears 20-17 on Monday night because they exhibited the same stupid, aggravating play [...]
