2024-2025 Season Studs n Duds

[tynimiller]

I don’t know, the record is skipping on describing this team, is it Young, inexperienced, mediocre, the first reason is wearing thin, Professional is the term that describes their occupation, and if it is, then perform like the job you were brought in to do, 2nd and 3 stringers practice to, I don’t think their on the sidelines reading a book, injuries happen in every game in the NFL my hats off to any Starter who can play every game without injury, but even still talent and talent at backup depth could probably help this team, just sayin.

We’ve literally only been able to say the we are the youngest playoff worthy team twice. It isn’t some perpetual thing.

I don't see being the youngest team in the league as an excuse for shoddy play. The Packers are the youngest team in the league on purpose. That's how Gute has designed this team. If youth is an obstacle to winning, then blame Gute, he's the reason. The shoddy play may also have very little to do with with youth and more to do with a poor coaching performance.

I think the plan for youth was so the team would grow together and mature in several years at the same time. It was not that the team would have 30 primadonnas that would all explode in year 2. This was a full rebuild. In fact the plan was for even our punter and place kicker to grow with it. Unfortunately, our 2 tweener kickers failed and we had to go a little grayer.

Most of the drops that were attributed to Wicks were on poorly thrown balls where he had to dive for them or was barely able to get his fingers on the ball at all. Unfortunately, the NFL doesn't consider that in their stat keeping. If the receiver is able to contact the ball at all with both hands, it gets counted as a drop.

The NFL doesn't actually keep track of drops. You won't see drops in any of the stats on the NFL website. There are some other stat keepers that keep track of drops though, and they might have different definitions of a drop. I remember one year when MVS had several drops, one of those sites said he only had 2 drops, which meant they must have considered it a drop only if it was a perfectly thrown ball.

By your definition, Aaron Rodgers' final pass of Super Bowl XLV was a drop, because the ball just grazed the fingertips of Jordy Nelson's hands, but I doubt anyone considers that to be a drop.

Stud: Jacobs
Dud: Love and LaFleur. Love took too many steps backward this season, bad mechanics, throws floaters into double and triple coverage, very disappointing and LeFleur never had the team ready at the opening kick, play calling was awful, team very undisciplined. 1-5 in division and a blocked FG from being 0-6.

 

[Pokerbrat2000]

Duds: Almost everybody with a big contract and/or drafted by the Packers in round 1.

Studs: Players with big contracts that were not drafted by the Packers.

Duds: Love and the WR group for not improving.

Studs: Hafley and the overall steps he made to improve the Defense.

Duds: MLF, needs to give up play calling. Bisaccia, needs to refocus or walk.

Dud and Stud: Gute. Knows how to trade and sign free agents but sucks drafting in round 1.

Stud: OL

Dud: DL

Stud: Emanual Wilson for proving me wrong, he is a decent #2 or #3.

Dud: Nixon for thinking he is a Stud.

BIGGEST DUDS: The 2024 Referees. Inconsistent, incorrect and outright confused.
