Tuesday Cheese Curds: Packers need to show some patience on offense from linchao's blog

If you could sum up the first three games for the Green Bay Packers’ offense in two words they would be “slow start.”The second halfcomeback against the Chicago Bears in Week 1 and the ill fated attempt to make a game out of it last Sunday against Washington illustrated the biggest challenge for Green Bay this far: sluggish starts in two of three games by the offense has put the team in a hole at halftime.Aaron Rodgers is playing on one bad knee and possibly two given reports he injured his hamstring on Sunday. He isn’t as mobile as he usually is. This means the Packers should be running a quick Cheap Kevin King Jersey , dink and dunk offense as that has been proven to work since Rodgers got hurt in Week 1.Instead, as was on display against Washington, they tried to look for big plays to develop which in turn leads Rodgers to revert to his bad habit of holding onto the ball too long. As a quarterback with an injured leg you can’t do that and when the right side of your offensive line is beat up, you REALLY can’t do that.The word that must describe the offense going forward is “patience.” Chew up yards, be surgical and get the ball out of Rodgers’ hands as fast as possible.Can they adapt? Coach Mike McCarthy’s uncanny ability to cling to a script is his Achilles’ heel. It’s clear what works for the Packers now. They have to go that route. Sticking with what hasn’t is a fool’s errand.We’ll see what happens against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but it’s safe to say not many feel McCarthy has learned his lesson.There’s more on the offense needing to develop patience as well as how Oren Burks made a big first impression in today’s cheese curds.Analysis: Green Bay Packers’ pinball offense must also show patience—PackersNews.comThe Packers will always live and die by their offense and the offense has to get used to playing shorter ball while Rodgers’ is hurt. Anything else is a risky proposition.Packers rookie WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling earns high praise for special teams work—Packers WireValdes-Scantling has been the only rookie receiver active for all three games and that isn’t an accident. His speed makes him dangerous on special teams and if he ever develops as a receiver the Packers may have another weapon on their hands.Rock Report: Unforgettable!—Packers.comBurks made an impression on his very first snap after missing the first two games of his rookie season. Larry McCarren breaks down Burks stopping an Adrian Peterson run where, had Burks not attempted the tackle, he could have made a big play.More Aaron Jones could mean less stress on Aaron Rodgers—ESPNJones only had seven carries against Washington. He’s clearly the best running back on the team yet McCarthy wants to continue with a “by committee” approach.That won’t continue long if Jones continues to make plays.Colorado cafe closed to ‘bear shenanigans’—UPIDon’t feel bad http://www.packerscheapstore.com/nick-perry-jersey-cheap , Packers fans. Khalil Mack is wrecking everything, including a freezer.Packers expected to clear Nick Perry & activate him from PUP list, per report It appears that the Green Bay Packers will finally be getting their top edge rusher back on the field this week. Outside linebacker Nick Perry missed all of the team’s OTA and minicamp practices this year due to his ankle surgery in the spring, and he has been on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start training camp as a result of the same issue.However, Perry has been ramping up his individual work during open practices over the last week, and it sounds like he is ready to return. To that end, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported on Sunday that the team expects to clear Perry to return to practice and thereby remove him from the PUP list. Perry would be eligible to practice immediately.The Packers have a pair of open practices scheduled this week, working outside at Ray Nitschke Field on Monday and Tuesday in advance of their trip to Oakland for a preseason game against the Raiders on Friday evening. If Perry is indeed activated and he suffers no setbacks in practice http://www.packerscheapstore.com/davante-adams-jersey-cheap , he may receive some limited snaps on Friday.This would be a massive boost for the Packers’ pass rush, at least off the edge. Perry has the most total sacks for the Packers over the past two years with 18, including seven in 2017 (which came in second to Clay Matthews’ 7.5). Perry’s presence also would provide defensive coordinator Mike Pettine with a versatile player who can play linebacker in an odd front or put his hand down and rush from a three-point stance in 4-3 looks.So far, the Packers have seen just one reserve outside linebacker impress in training camp, as Reggie Gilbert has appeared to be deserving of the #3 job behind Perry and Matthews. A full season of good health from Perry will be critical for the Packers’ defense as it looks to build on last year’s 26th-place ranking in points allowed.
