Packers Bye Week - The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly!

If I go back over my Packer Blog, I probably used this theme before!!  Of, course, one of my favorite movies, LOVE WESTERNS!  Actors, Clint Eastwood, few words and more action!  And, the GOOD GUY wins! Of course, that is the Packers!  The GOOD guys!!

The GOOD!

1 - First place in the NFC North!  8 Wins & 2 Losses.  One of the TOP seeds in the NFC.

2 - The Offense.  Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones (and, Jamaal Williams), Davante Adams, & an offensive line that is growing together!

3 - Defense.  The Smith Brothers, young D-backs, & Blake Martinez.

The BAD!

1 - The offense - Tight Ends - NEED more!

2 - The Defense - Inside Linebacker help, mistakes  - big plays, usually poor communication or rookie mistakes?

3 - Special Teams - mostly the return game, and at time, cover teams.

The Ugly!

1 - Chargers Game!  Not into it!  Lots of yards in first half.  And, offense was "Out to Lunch!"

2 - Eagles Game!  Same as above, especially run yards & turnovers.

So, what do we need to finish the season?

Consistency!  Both offense & defense need to take that next step.  Offense, avoid the 3 and outs!  Keep a good mix of run & pass, and work the play action pass game!  Defense, provide consist QB pressure, while maintaining a quality run defense.  And, limit the BIG plays!  Special Teams, I would love to see a couple punt of kick return for TD's!

Enjoy the BYE week!
