GB is NOT going to blitz as much.

AZ took the typical formula for beating a rookie QB and it didn't work..GB will now know better.

They will rush 3 and 4 along with a good measure of Clay Matthews, but beyond that, they will be dedicating themselves to the Secondary-where they are solid.

Expect us to be much more run heavy this week until they start creeping up in the box, THEN start attempting the deep ball with PA.

Expect Shock and Thor to have monster games as well.

We can NOT get away from our gameplan.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Green Bay back off the blitz and rush 3 while putting 8 in coverage baiting Newton to run or throw into an interception. They will likely blitz somewhat but given how well Newton did against Arizona, I am not sure the all out blitz is a good idea. Even in collge, Newton was better when teams blitzed than when they didn't. If it were me I would play zone and make him fit the ball in tight windows and keep everything in front of me.

and that is when we need to time the run accurately. If they aren't run blitzing.....our backs need to step up.

No they won't, IMO. They will think they can do it better. They blitzed Brees too often and that is why the Saints had a chance to come back......

this is not capers' mo. blitzing any inexperienced qb is typically a good idea-- the cardinals secondary is just trashy

Packer fans will resent this, but their front 4 on D isn't any better than 'Zona's. Their back 7, however, is MUCH better. Along with decent depth. That said, I could see it going your way, in which case, we need to be prepared for. Clay Matthews is a pass rushing LB though, a very effective one at that. I could see them starting out with him as their lone blitzer and adding more if needed. We've got some great minds on this team though, I trust them to adjust accordingly, unlike Fox.

Yesterday's game may give Caper's pause. Newton didn't look very inexperienced.

As for the secondary, I don't know that the 400 yards they gave up to the Saints represents a great secondary. There were a lot of receivers wide open for the Saints. When you zoneblitz and don't get there, receivers are going to be open, plain and simple.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      By rayzor · Posted

      they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      He will likely remain unsigned the remainder of this season(barring someone being in a pure QB panic AND making poor decisions) largely due to the cost. I do think he will get multiple offers to be a backup QB and perhaps a couple to potentially start this offseason.  I will continue to beat the same horse over and over.....he should go to a successful team with an established starter. If I were him, go to somewhere like SF, LAR, etc. Somewhere with a successful QB coach and brilliant offensive mind and ALSO a set situation at QB. Ride the pine and adjust for a year or two. Chill and be around better culture. I would suggest the same for Bryce but he will be limited to wherever we can trade him.

      I dont think the clock has started yet on canales.  Once he gets his guy then the pressure starts.  WFNZ/mike kaye said  yesterday that he thinks there are 4 options here regardless of bryces status, Geno, Fields, Wilson maybe Jones.
