The shoulder injury suffered in the third quarter of the Packers 30-21 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers could keep Aaron Rodgers out of action for Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.  There is no structural damage according to head coach Mike McCarthy.  McCarthy may sit Rodgers in favor of rookie Matt Flynn so Rodgers [...]

The Packers just ran out of time against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.  The defense did everything everything they could to keep the team within striking distance, intercepting Bucs quarterback Brian Griese three times, but eventually broke in the fourth quarter when Buccaneers running back Ernest Graham broke off a 47-yard run to set [...]

Well, Packers fans, the last seven years of rolling over the hapless Detroit Lions could be coming to the end with the firing of Lions GM Matt Millen.  The years of Millen taking wide receivers and offensive players in the first round, stunting the growth of the team and making an easier division opponent for [...]

The Packers secondary is undersiege by the injury bug.  It doesn’t seem like there’s anyway around it.  The entire starting secondary plus some backups are listed on the injury report this week.
Despite having five defensive backs on the injury report, only one, corner Al Harris, is expected to miss Sunday’s game at the Tampa Bay [...]

Packers cornerback Al Harris is seeking third- and fourth-opinions on his ruptured spleen, an injury he suffered in Sunday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.  Unless something drastic happens, Harris will most likely not need season-ending surgery on the injury.  The uncertainty of Harris’ injury creates a quandry for the Packers, as Harris creates dead [...]

Aaron Rodgers is no longer undefeated as a starter.  But that’s not the point.  The Packers were strictly outplayed by the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night, losing 27-16.
There is really no one place to stick the blame for this one.  The defense did allow Marion Barber to rush for 142 yards on 28 carries.  The [...]

The NFL season would not be complete without a Packers team in the mix for the NFC North title and a playoff run. Fans feared that the decision to send Brett Favre to the New York Jets would start a Babe Ruth-esque curse that would haunt the franchise for decades and [...]

6:43 PM - About one and a half hours until gametime. I have to go out for a Sunday class and probably won’t be back to update this until around 8:45 or 9. So until then, crack open a cold one, leave some comments, and discuss those Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys.

Tonight the marquee matchup of the first three weeks of the season occurs with Dallas Cowboys headed to Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers.  This is the only game in Week 3 between two 2-0 teams.  Because The Landry Hat has accused me of blatant homerism, I have decided to divide this [...]

Packers starting middle linebacker Nick Barnett is under intense scrutiny by the league offices this week.  In the first two games of the 2008 season, Barnett has already racked up three fines, although one, stemming from an off-the-field altercation is not game-related.  The other two, however, are.
The first one came in the Packers Monday Night [...]
