But even Johnny Football would have been smacked playing behind Kalil.

By now Johnny would have implanted his tiny little foot deep into Khalil's overpaid lazy pouty ass.

It would take bribery to even hope Kalil could protect any QB right now.

Manziel might lead the league in rushing with this line, running for his life.


One thing about Norv I don't understand is having Bridgewater be basically a pocket passer. Move him around more.

After years of watching culpepper, Jackson, and ponder take off and run, when they could stand in the pocket an extra half second and complete a pass..........I'm very happy to have a guy who stands in there. Should hopefully keep him healthy too.

Damn
Was hoping MarQueis would carve a niche out for himself in the league.

There is no pocket. He backs up, backs up and dumps off.

This. When you get roughly 8 milliseconds to throw ... OUT OF THE SHOTGUN ... it's hard to describe what a QB does in the pocket.

Feh

Kalil needs tosit

Losing Lard-holt did NOT hurt anything. At all

D played better than last time.


Lots of hi throws, Bridgewater was not all that great.

Too many drops.

More Banyard please. Don't understand why he hasn't gotten opps before now. He's better at picking up blitzes than McKinnon.

You can pull somebody off the practice squad, off the scrap heap, hell pull Bryant McKinnie's fat ass out of retirement and any of them will be better than Kalil. The rest of them aren't much better. I'm amazed at Bridgewater's ability to stand in and make any plays at all. He gets massacred on damn near every pass.

Our receivers just suck beyond belief. They can't run a proper route and they can't catch passes that hit them in the hands.

Status: offline 		And ........ when Teddy has time, and has an open receiver, he misses BADLY a lot of times.
Not picking on him, just sayin ....... plenty of blame on offense, no ones getting off easy.
Pretty much what Ed says
Frustrating that WE know Banyard would do fine ... but it takes THEM months to figure that out? WTH?

Tons of work to. E-z touchdown, the rest was way too much work. Liked coach going for it twice on 4th down. The possibility of on-side kick at the end?

No win situation. they needed to sell out to stop Lacy, then see Rodgers throw a 70 yard TD pass.

Barr was uneven, Rhodes was very good. Tons of missed tackles. Sloppy and sometimes looked uninterested making plays.

Rodgers: "They put a lot on Xavier and Captain and Josh. Those guys tackled well, they covered pretty well. You've got to give them credit."

Rodgers on Vikings' game plan: "It was different playing against a Mike Zimmer team. Mike is a great football mind and he had a great plan."


Give Zimmer a couple years and some more players .... and we may be golden, at least on THAT side of the ball.

"least of our problems"

I've heard someone use that before ......


Problem #1 LT trying to get his QB killed.
Problem #2 RT trying to get his QB killed.
Problem #3 Rest of Oline trying to get their QB killed
Problem #4 WR that can't run routes and can't catch with any consistency.
Problem #5 RB by committee with nobody yet stepping up to be a #1.
Problem #6 Rookie QB throws high, has difficulty throwing the deep ball.

Bridgewater has a lot to learn, but he is learning. I expect him to get better. I think the in house RB can be at least a serviceable group. I see no hope for this offensive line. I don't know that we have any receivers that know how to adjust to the ball outside of Jennings.

Somewhere in there you have to add
"no clue on how to attack/make your offense dangerous"
The good teams in this league approach offense as differently as can be imagined (from the way we do it)
