What To Watch For As Packers Play Their Second Preseason Game?

Preseason Game One is in the books.  A few observations from Game #1:

1 - Packers win, and that really means nothing in preseason!

2 - Eagles score on first drive, NOT GOOD.  Missed tackles, plenty!  Matthews missed sack!  Was all over QB, and slid off!  Defensive backs, several missed tackles!

3 - Game Notes:
1st Series - 3 & out - short passes Hundley at QB

1st D series - Packer offsides.   Ha Ha good tackle sets up 3rd down.  Morgan Burnett missed tackle - 1st down
Sack - Kenny Clark & Lowry  - Randall - INJ? - (Cheap shot)
4th & 6 - 1st down - Missed blitz & TD pass!!!  Matthews missed tackle
And DB missed tackles!!!! - Eagles - 6 - Packers 0 - Eags go for 2 - D holding!!! - Eagles 6 - Packers 0 Ex pt No Good

-------- (On offense, no running game, & Hundley a 3 & out)  Defense (missed tackles & give up a TD, NOT GOOD)

Packer O  - 2nd series - Bennett terrible block - Fumble - Eags got it!  Montgomery Fumble!

Packer 2nd D series - Gave up big pass - But, held on downs

-------- (Montgomery Fumble - NOT GOOD & on D, did hold, but a few big pass plays!)

Packer 3rd O Series - Running game - crap! - Good catch by Adams - Good catch by Bennett

End 1st Q

Continue Packer 3rd O Series - Cobb cannot get separation - Janis missed catch

Packer 3rd D Series - Punt fumbled by Eags & Pack missed it - D holds

--------- (Cobb cannot seem to get separation anymore - Eags gift to Packers on fumbled Punt!)

Punt Return TD Packers - Trevor Davis! - Packers 7 - Eagles 6

Packers 4th D Series - Pack gave up reception - Eags fumble

--------- (Can Trevor Davis be a threat this year?  & Defense gets another turnover

Packer 4th O Series - Williams (RB) good run - Good reception - Allison - 
Williams another good run - TD throw - Hundley - Janis
 - ackers 14 - Eags 6

-----------
Crosby kick OofB 
Packer 5th D series - Eags 11 for 11 at this point then, - Pack interception by Thomas (LB)

--------- (Williams at running back looks good, Janis ran nice pattern for TD - 
Eagles up to this point 11 for 11 passing

Packer 5th O Series - Davis missed catch - Hundley Sacked - Spriggs bad block - FG - Crosby 39 yd - good
Packers 17 - Eags 6

Packers 6th D series - Kevin King GOOD tackle!!!! - Eags Punt

--------- (Does offensive line have depth? Springs & Murphy look shaky at tackle! - 
D forced punt & good 

Packer 6th O Series - Hundley sacked on screen set up - Packer hurt - lineman? Don Barclay
Hundley - had ball batted down! - McCaffrey catch - Punt - Eags 28 yard return - but holding called!

1:53 left 2nd Q
Packers 7th D series - QB scramble - got outside left DE - LB - Calvin - slow! - Long Gain over King!! looked confused
Fumble by Eags - Martinez good hustle cause fumble - Under Review Packer Ball

Almost the end of half #1, enough for now!

Game #2 versus Redskins - What to look for! (Packer Website Article, click here)

1 - Tackling!  Count the missed tackles!

2 - Running Backs - apparently Montgomery is banged up, rookies get a great look!

3 - Pass Rush - do we have one?

4 - Battle at wide receiver - Janis vs McCaffrey vs Yancey vs Allison vs Davis vs Dupre, etc!
Davis has an inside track because of returning punts & kicks and injuries are already taking there toll!

5 - Battle at OLB depth - Elliot & Fackrell & Gilbert & Calvin & Biegel
Unlike wide receiver where there is I think some talent, this group DOES NOT look talented!

That is plenty to watch this week!  We NEED a few new faces to step up!!!!
