2025 Green Bay Packers Thread

[NCMUFan]

The Bears still suck.  Just wonder how bad they suck this year or are the Packers decent?

Will know more about the Packers after this week's game in Atlanta.

[Jockey]

The scariest part for the Bears?

The Packers were better than Chicago with every single position group. QB, RB, WR, TE, OL, DL, LB, DB. Plus coaching.

ST might have been a push.

Given the Packers youth, I think they'll be pretty inconsistent this year.  Need the TE's to grow up fast.  If one of them can become a security blanket for the QB, that would be a plus and take the burden off Aaron Jones as well.  Need to get 14-15 weeks out of him

[Herman Cain]

Packers strong offensive line is a great thing to have with a young quarterback. Gives him time to make the proper reads.

Defensive strength leading to good field position also helps the cause as well.

You're forgetting about AJ Dillon there

Dillon is nothing special. Jones is.

The Panthers just lost at Atlanta, so I've seen 60 minutes of Falcons football.

I was quite unimpressed.

Ridder isn't very good, the receivers did little against a decent but hardly studly Carolina defensive backfield, and the Panthers were able to pressure Ridder. Atlanta's two backs are real good, so contain them and the offense is ordinary at best.

They didn't put much pressure on Young; he just threw some dopey rookie passes and missed some receivers, including two who were open deep for what would have been long TD plays (including a 99-yarder). Carolina backs had some big holes to run through.

As with most games, it was decided by turnovers. My team had 3 of them, gifting the Falcons 17 of their 24 points. Avoid those, and I like the Packers' chances a lot.

5/5 on extra points, 1/1 on field goals with it being from 52 yards, Nixon had 2 returns and averaged 27.5 yards per kickoff return and Reed had 3 punt returns and averaged 18 yards per return.  The Bears averaged 21 yards per return on kickoffs and 8 yards per return on punts.  Both kickers had 1 punt inside the 20, while the Bears averaged 53 yards on punts and the Packers averaged 49.8.  The Packers had a good day on Special Teams.

Dillon is just bad.

You're not wrong. But I think over the course of the season, STs will be pretty close.

The only other positions where the Bears have a chance of being as good over the course of the season are WR and, possibly TE. But, that being sad, I would not trade a single position group on GB for its counterpart on the Bears.

And I think GB will only be a .500 type team. 9-8 or 8-9.

A .500 type team would be an impressive showing for Love.

It would.

But my thinking is that finally we will have a solid 'D'.

No one predicted MU would have a BB season like they did last year.
So, just have to let the season unfold and maybe it will be a pleasant surprise.

Exactly and a few surprise teams every NFL season.  Much will depend how good, not good, or in between Love is.

I have not expectations for this team. Just going to enjoy the season like every other.

Disagree.  The defense is pretty good and the OL is top notch.  The only real question marks are QB and WR.

I think .500 is the floor.

[Jockey]

Rashan Gary had 7 pressures in 10 snaps against the rookie right tackle on pass plays. Two of the pressures helped cause the lost fumble and Walker's Pick 6.

It was essentially the same D and OL last year (injuries always happen, and will happen again this year), and GB finished 8-9.

QB was checked out

hopefully another year of experience will improve the defense, it should have been much better last season

Falcons secondary is talented . Good Time for young Packer receivers to step up.
