No catchy, clever intro here. Let’s get down to business. Here are three things the Green Bay Packers must, must, must do if they are to advance to the Su…wait…I don’t even want to say that phrase yet…defeat the Chicago Bears in Sunday’s NFC Championship Game (still get chills writing that). Win the special teams battle. Or, at the very [...] It wasn’t the best game the Packers played this year, but it also wasn’t the worst. In the most important game of the year, the Packers came away with a hard fought victory, which is all that matters. They also didn’t do anything to sway my opinion that they can go into Philadelphia and win [...] Up until Monday night, it’d been quite a magic act pulled off by the Green Bay Packers. The Packers, using something similar to sleight of hand, actually had us believing they had changed many of their famously - or is that infamously? - self-defeating ways from previous years. Also apparently gone were the poor special teams performances this [...] Okay, so we’ve covered the pretty boys on offense. For part two, it’s time to look at the tough guys on defense (and those wimps on special teams…I kid, I kid). Front seven – Yeah, that’s right. We’re going a different way on this one. It seems ridiculous to compare the respective defensive lines/linebacking corps for the [...] The last few weeks at OBOD have been dedicated entirely to discussing the upcoming draft as it pertains to the Green Bay Packers. Makes sense – this is a Packers’ blog, after all. But there are three other teams in the NFC North, of course, and we’re going to kick off our draft week coverage – seriously, [...] Friday morning, I provided a brief look at what the other three NFC North teams had been doing in free agency up to that point. Now, with the weekend drawing to an end, it seemed like a good time to provide an updated look (and, as always, give some thoughts on it all). After all, it’s hard [...] One was expected to replace a legend. The other was expected to be the first legend a team had had in over 50 years. The tasks – and those lofty, borderline unfair, expectations – facing Aaron Rodgers and Jay Cutler were similar. The results so far have been anything but. Round two of what was expected to be a [...] Well, it looks like that Sunday night Bears-Packers season opener at Lambeau just got a whole lot more interesting. The Bears, longing for the days of, well, Sid Luckman, finally got themselves a big-name quarterback this afternoon when they acquired Jay Cutler from the Denver Broncos. Cutler came with a price tag befitting a big name, as well: Chicago’s first round [...] |
