Packers vs Eagles Play-offs Game Thread: Show em what are are made off.

[tynimiller]

Wicks regressed. Watson is pretty well done while Doubs also had injury issues. Could be that the WR corps was vastly overrated.

I don’t necessarily believe Wicks has changed much, I see same depth WR that is still insanely young and while his route running is nasty the rest of his game is unrefined and hands need work.

Watson whether just fluke luck or not sucks because he’s awesome and team dude.

Doubs head injuries worry me big time for sure.

Watson going down out WR back in the realm of reasonable for Day 2 consideration if steal is there but now Doubs health might really make me think it’s a 50/50 proposition we take one.

Hoping we learn more on Doubs

Well there goes the season AGAIN!

Packers took a physical whipping from play 1. Guys were getting carted off all day. They're the hitee instead of the hitter. The soft label is there for a reason. Injuries are part of the game but it's beyond a coincidence that the Packers got best up today.

Yeah, injuries happen, but it is often the case that the nail gets worse of it than the hammer…

Would always like the win, but roster would have been a wreck next week if they had won

I mean people have been saying that about the Lions for 6 weeks now and they keep winning.

Lions have also made moves to add Depth.

Defensive they have been hard hit, but their offense hasn't been hit that hard. Very possible Packers would have been without Myers, Jenkins, Doubs, Reed and maybe Jacobs. Not a good recipe vs a team that you'd need to score a ton against.

Regardless just an academic discussion now.

What about the penalty’s and TO’s is the excuse going to be because their young, or injured

Let’s see…two left guards that hadn’t played all season being called for four holding penalties…takes a special kind of hater to blame the coach for that. But interesting attempt to shift the conversation!

 

[melvin dangerr]

I would say 2studs: Jacobs, and anyone who was witness to this game and I wouldn’t call them duds, more like villain: the QB coach, ST coach and Gute

 

[milani]

I totally agree that they were. And WR is a bigger need going into next season than it was going into this one.

Do not think they are overrated. They are first of all, still very young. Secondly, they are not the tall, physical AJ Green, Randy Moss, or Sterling Sharpe type. But they are fast. But we have plenty of them because they do not make the big money.

The Eagles caught a bunch of offensive holding penalties as well. 2 on that FG drive to make it 19-10.

Not shifting your making the old young excuse, when it should be lack of dept talent

Morgan being hurt and unable to play hurt big time when Jenkins went down.

 

[DoURant]

Sad to see the season end, always high hopes when the season starts, and it's a gut punch when it is over....but now it's on to Draft Season. Looking forward to diving into prospects, discussion, and the annual Amish Mock Draft contest.... not to mention attending my first NFL Draft in Green Bay!!!!

Yeah, a lot of these guys don't have NFL mature bodies yet.

Reed is a playmaker with the ball but regressed significantly over the course of the season and has to be schemed into space.

Wicks runs great routes but his hands are among the worst in the league.

Watson is essentially done for the duration of his contract. It’s tough to count on Doubs for anything as his concussion history gets worse.

Everything else is a ragtag group of #4s. They’re not that young anymore. Reed and Wicks are going into their 3rd seasons in 2025.

WR is definitely needed.

 

[milani]

Better look at the QB, his accuracy is questionable, he is inconsistent, he has not shown leadership, he has not shown the kind of effort that Jacobs and a handful of others show game in and game out. Love 3 ints, missed throws- I get it the line is bad but frankly, I always thought Love was a dual threat QB, he is not even a single threat QB the way he plays. Eagles destroyed the Pack physically, mentally and outplayed them in every facet of the game. Not much to take from this game into next year.

#1 defense in Philly. There will be hiccups. But when you look at the losses to Philly, Detroit, Minny we can see that we were physically beaten. We have to become more physical on the D line and we probably need a physical receiver who can do the short stuff and hold on to the ball.

In past years both MLF and MM played musical chairs when someone on the line got hurt. Today it was just next man up.

Well tough game guys. I didn’t expect to win but thought we’d at least come out to play on offense.

I hate to say it but Rich has to go. This was an abysmal season for ST. He’s regressed to Ron Zook level. I wish him well and seems like a genuine guy. The last several games were inexcusable. We don’t even know what to do from play #1. Matt should’ve made that clear to Nixon not to return a ball -2 deep. In this game?? On the road? Against them deferring?
Inconceivable why we would spoon feed this good of an opponent. Not to mention almost got Nixon killed. Very lucky he didn’t get a concussion

 

[gopkrs]

Because he’s like a 5th string wide receiver who isn’t as good as the starters

Brady said not a good pass

 

[milani]

Brady said not a good pass

Pass was not very good. But a taller, more experienced receiver makes the adjustment especially in crunch time.

Ironic that Philly finally kicked deep on their FINAL kickoff.

 

[melvin dangerr]

17 games is a long season, that’s why dept at any position should be addressed with cap money available a large contract for 1 player no matter how good he is puts a bind on what a Owner or GM can do, injury’s will always be a part of the game, starters and backups are not immune to this,

That's what happens when you draft soft dome players! This team sucks in cold, or any kind of crappy weather!

 

[OldSchool101]

Hafley and McNamus were generally high points.

Playcalling is stale. No trick plays? Nothing saved for Postseason? If this Offense gameplan was homework I’d send it back incomplete. Can’t believe we’d repeat the 3rd n 3 play at our GB45! Same EXACT long throw that didn’t work against the Lions. What is it with us and throwing 15+ on 3rd n short??

Didn’t get Mudgrave involved

Didn’t get the RB more involved for +2 +4 type quick passes. When we did Jacobs did good. Terrible utilization of RB TE group past a couple plays to Kraft. Everyone knew this would be a tough D to run up the gut. Where was the outside zone Run?)?

It’s like we purposely threw the game. It was that bad outside a few individual performances. I’m very unimpressed with our gameplan. Stale. Vanilla. Predictable. uninspiring

 

[Team Ronny]

Keisan? Nixon...GOODBYE! YOU SUCK!
