  1. Not to blame Getsy but... if you look at his coaching history, a good chunk of his time has been with GB, especially more recently. From 2014-17 he was their offensive quality control and wide receivers coach (under McCarthy) before going to Mississippi State to be the Off Coordinator and WR coach in 2017. Interestingly he was there for only one season before returning to GB where he became the QB coach in 2018 joining new HC Matt Lefleur. I'm guessing Rodgers put in a good word for him. At any rate, Getsy's time at Miss State wasn't necessarily one that would make you sit up and notice. Seems their offense was pretty lackluster during his one year there and after "another dismal performance on offense in the Outback Bowl", Getsy chose to return to GB. Some other notes of Getsy's tenure while at Miss State were the "up and down play from senior quarterback Nick Fitzgerald" and "Getsy's wide outs were also inconsistent." Lastly the article below notes: "Getsy shouldn't be blamed for most of Miss State's woes on offense, but he certainly didn't have any revolutionary solutions to the plethora of problems the unit had throughout the season." https://www.clarionledger.com/story/sports/college/mississippi-state/2019/01/21/mississippi-state-bulldogs-offensive-ccordinator-luke-getsy-green-bay-packers-wide-receivers-coach/2641854002/
  2. The common thread between them? Both former GB offense (oriented) coaches. And we see how well GBs offense is running now with Rodgers struggling.
  3. Not sure if this belongs in the ‘Fields vs other QBs string’. (And to be fair this was posted either before the 4th quarter stated or just after).
  4. I believe that win over NE was in OT too.
  5. Agreed. The last two losses easily could have been wins. And what’s more, watching the Pack today struggle against Washington makes me even more confident we can win the second meeting this year.
  6. There’s been a fair amount of chatter on Twitter about interest in Quinn to the Rams. Mostly just people like us so a lot of speculation. But they think since Miller left, a player like Quinn would fit great. Floyd would be opposite him who hasn’t been horrible off the edge. It was noted that if Quinn doesn’t have constant double teams, like he’s seeing in Chicago, he’s probably get more pressures. Besides that he still hasn’t updated his own Twitter page…lol.
  7. Any value, reason or way to try and trade Quinn to the Jets for recently disgruntled-asking-to-be-traded WR Elijah Moore? I’m not in total agreement with Infante here about who the Bears have on the block and think if anything a better Oline piece should be gotten but might be intrigued with a player like Moore.
  8. Ironically the Cowboys are in the same predicament with Rush going 4-0 (until losing last week) in place of Prescott who was injured during the week one loss. In more “positive” news…
  9. It was bound to happen. But Coulter?
  10. Amen. Here’s to Mr Sauce (my new favorite player) and the Jets!
  11. I agree. Not sure if this guy is first round material but maybe 2nd or 3rd? But if he’s a security blanket (of sorts) for Fields why not? Works for Burrow and Chase in Cincy and is working for Hurts and Smith in Philly. And whenever I watch the Eagles play (like last night) I forget they have AJ Brown too. Damn that’s a good offense.
  12. Riley Reiff should be added to the list although it appears he’s gonna be an easy “cut” decision. Wonder why he’s no longer legit considering his 1st round pedigree? Surely he’d have been a better option for a stopgap this year?
  13. Word. And despite his dismal stats, Wilson is still beating the Pack. It’s a good Sunday. ? And Trubisky came in a helped win against TB.
  14. One silver lining is that GB is about to lose to the Jets…in GB. And puts GB at 3-3. Which means the Bears are one game back from them. ??
  15. I would think if he had a better oline and WRs maybe?
  16. Flus was probably the one who chose most of the coaching staff. At any rate, I’ve started watching this dudes videos (after someone here I think recommended it). He’s got some good points about Justin’s progress (and in some cases degradation). He talks early on about Justin’s progression reads then mentions a little about whether Getsy is the problem with play-calling. Haven't watched all of this video but plan on doing so to get a better perspective on things.
  17. Yup. And Pettis (although he scored last night) isn’t much better. Dropped WAY too many catches for being in the league as long as he as. I’m more likely to forgive Jones but he should probably not be fielding punts anymore.
  18. I’m still suspect of Johnson but perhaps his retuned helped others work on some of the basics they need to work on, like Gordon with his tackling (rather than getting burned on coverage) and Jackson being able to roam more (instead of having to cover the top end for Gordon). I’m assuming Vildor played CB or was he at NB? Saw he had some stats from last nights game. I didn’t get to see much of the game but based on what you’re saying, id think that might be part of it. (???)
  19. Can’t say as I blame him. He was hit umpteen times and I only saw parts of the second and fourth quarters.
  20. And now the sloppiness is starting to rear its ugly head. Lots of pure garbage all around (dropped punts, dropped passes, delay of game, missed tackles). This team came out of the gate with lots of promise at the start of the season. They seemed disciplined, full of energy (especially towards the end of the game) and although considered underdogs, played like they could win. Suddenly as we see this game begin to close out, the team is a shell of its former self...only five weeks removed. I optimistically went into this season with thinking they'd win 8-9 games, now I'm not so sure.
  21. Curious why Schofield was in to relieve Jenkins before Patrick went out with an injury(?) Things were looking up at the beginning of the 2nd half...until Jones Jr. muffed another punt. Thankfully Wentz is looking more crappy than Fields is getting rushed/sacked/beat up.
  22. I hope not considering Patrick is supposed to be the starting Center...at some point.
