We all know the Green Bay Packers are a beat-up bunch. It’s something we at OBOD have tried to steer away from as much as possible because, well, we don’t like making excuses about our team. We’re just so un-Vikings fan-ish that way.
So, instead of simply griping about it, I’ve decided to go a different [...]
Okay, now we can say the Green Bay Packers’ defense is devastated by injury.
Wednesday, we learned that outside linebacker Brad Jones’ season is indeed over. Jones has been placed on injured reserve and will undergo surgery on his damaged shoulder. The injury initially occurred in camp and was apparently significantly re-injured in Sunday night’s win [...]
Don’t worry – you didn’t misread the title.
This week’s Wednesday special is going to be all about the running backs. No injury reports. No mention of Mason Crosby winning NFC Special Teams Player of the Week (outside of that one, of course). Nothing but running backs.
And, really, why not? The position is the focus of [...]
Most of the major news surrounding the Green Bay Packers on the day after their season-opening win over Philadelphia involved injuries.
And, as is the case most of the time with things like these, the news wasn’t particularly good.
Head coach Mike McCarthy told reporters Monday that running back Ryan Grant (ankle) is out for Sunday’s home opener with [...]
Well, the third preseason game is here. And, as Denny Green once famously informed us, this is the one that teams do not, in fact, play like it’s bull(expletive), bull(expletive)!
That could be especially true in this one, as the Green Bay Packers take on the Indianapolis Colts and some cat named Peyton at Lambeau Field tonight [...]
The past few days at OBOD haven’t been incredibly Green Bay Packers-centric, what with our “Know Your Enemy” series and the return of Brett Favre and all.
(Seriously – did you read Gene’s fantastic post from Tuesday? If not, scroll down a bit after reading this. And, to all of our new readers, thanks for checking [...]
If Saturday’s contest between the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns – set for 7 p.m. Lambeau Time at, well, Lambeau Field – was a regular season affair, we’d go all out in writing a preview.
Unfortunately, though, it isn’t – it’s merely the preseason opener.
That being the case, we’ll go a different route and merely [...]
And we’re back with yet another heaping helping of training camp stew, your nightly recap of the most interesting bits of information from today’s practice.
The Green Bay Packers practiced just once Monday, but there was still quite a bit going on. Let’s get to that now, shall we?
As always, a thanks to the fine folks [...]
And your nightly serving of our takes on the most interesting bits of information to come out of that day’s training camp practice has returned for a second year.
That’s right: Training camp stew: The sequel.
The Green Bay Packers practiced twice Thursday, so there was quite a bit of information to sift through. We’ve done just [...]
So, six practices in – how are the Green Bay Packers looking?
In short, similar to most teams at this point. The defense is ahead of the offense, which is almost always the case at any level of football six practices in to a season. OTA/minicamps only do so much for keeping a rhythm, after all, [...]
