Studs and dud Niners official

[RepStar15]

That's what they are saying about us

Kansas City* was the easiest defense they will face all season.

 

[PackerFanLV]

Studs- Arod-This dude talent level is crazy
crosby- Way to bounce back man
Dvante-He is elite his route tree is at the top of the league, I used to wonder when he first came in the league like why is this kid getting so many balls his way, but now I see.


Duds-MM- He never has any time outs lol, what the hell was that double reverse about??
brice and haha- Why these dudes missing so many tackles?
Tramon William-Im a tramon fan but buddy was afraid of that contact this game lol, they kept running his way, he was like no no no no.
Kevin King-Yes he made a big play at the end of the game but boi was he getting fried before that, he was thanking god they started running the ball down our throat.
Oline- Their run blocking is dumpster right now.
DLine- Gawd I feel bad for daniels, this dude is constantly double and no-one is stepping up, they looked so bad in this game.

Defence looked better under Capers imo at least they were better against the run.

Does that mean there's going to be a "Rehire Capers" thread? Lol.

.Capers is gone, the secondary has pretty much been purged a few times in the last 5 years with high draft picks, what is still the common thread over that time? Doesn't take much "wit" to figure it out.

I watched most of the national media sports shows today and the consensus was basically "Wow Rodgers is great for engineering that comeback, but the Packers aren't very good if they need that to beat the 49ers with a third string QB and some backup RBs." Not sure why everybody is always hating on the national sports commentators when most of the forum here is saying the exact same thing.

Not sure who it was, but someone said that the Packers replaced the GM, the DC, the OC, and other coaches, so thhere's only one person left to blame.

Anybody that thinks a new GM, DC, OC is going to come into a team with aging players in expensive contracts coming off basically 10+ years of late round drafting and have them undefeated already is kidding themselves.

And Rodgers is playing his part in the struggles as well.

Yeah, we're only six game s into the new regime. Everything isn't going to be fixed overnight. Too bad they let things slide go so far before they decided they needed to do something.

By the way, I forgot to mention the exception to the national sports media was of course, Skip Bayless, who took his time to take shots at Rodgers. He said the comeback was only because one of the 49ers corners got hurt in the fourth quarter (can't remember who he was talking about). And took the opportunity to use his favorite statistic, the QBR, pointing out Rodgers QBR was 54.6 compared to Beathard's 90.6. And also that Tom Brady is currently sixth in QBR while Rodgers is 16th.

Beathard is the backup, 2nd year QB 3rd round pick. Brieda is the starting RB. The team is loaded with high round draft picks. Lot of talent on this team. My wife is a 49’ers fan so we watch every game of them and my Pack. This 49’er team is going to be really good next year, and someone is going to want Beathard after this year if Jimmy Gesus comes back healthy. Do not sleep on this team in the next couple of years.

Sadly, Joe Whitt and the Packer secondary has been in the habit of making QB's like Beathard look great for years.

Actually the Packers defense has been pretty good vs. less talented quarterbacks over Capers' tenure.

The Brice experiment should be over. He sucks.

It's too early to give up on Brice. With that being said he shouldn't be lined up against a receiver one-on-one, especially one as fast as Goodwin.

Perhaps, once Breeland and Alexander are healthy, Tramon Williams might be moved to safety? If for no other reason than to have some veteran leadership at the second level of the secondary.

While Williams would definitely be more assignment sure than Brice I guarantee he wouldn't have been able to defend that pass to Goodwin as a single high safety either.

The play-calling, meanwhile, still leaves a lot to be desired. And speaking of running, don't give up on Jones so damn early. His very first carry of the game (shocked that got called short) was explosive. Granted, he made a few key errors (drop, missed block), but good things still happen when he carries the ball. Honestly, I think he is the key to this entire offense. Rodgers's stats off play-action were nuts, and I think that had a lot to do with the mere threat of AJones. There were so many instances where we started a drive and I just thought, "OK, McCarthy, run with Jones on 1st and 10 here and go from there." We need to run him, be patient, keep it simple, and everything will else will come.

While there were some instances I didn't like the play calling you should give credit for some great ones as well. Just take a look at the first drive which resulted in MVS being wide open for a 60-yard gain as well as an easy touchdown for Montgomery.

Yeah, I get that. But if you're facing a WR with that type of speed, I would think about keeping the corner on him and not sending him.

Pettine should have had a cornerback on Goodwin with safety help over the top.

Duds-MM- He never has any time outs lol, what the hell was that double reverse about??
brice and haha- Why these dudes missing so many tackles?
DLine- Gawd I feel bad for daniels, this dude is constantly double and no-one is stepping up, they looked so bad in this game.

It seems Rodgers is mostly to blame for burning timeouts without any reason.

Clinton-Dix and Brice combined to miss a single tackle vs. the Niners.

It seems you haven't watched Clark play at all, he's definitely been the best defensive lineman this season.

Who

If I were to highlight two notable performances, they would be:

Stud: Valdes-Scantling.
In the absence of Cobb & Allison, he has stepped up and made the most of his opportunities. The experience he is getting now is only going to help him moving forward. Rodgers seem to have some level of trust with him.


Dud: Brice.
I was really rooting for this guy, but he gets beat over the top on a weekly basis. Other teams are taking advantage of what they must view as a big liability in GB's secondary. The problem is, the Pack might not have any better options.
