    I think the Packers and Cowboys are both in the category of, "well do they want to play this week, will the opponent show up and want to play this week?" I do think the Cowboy's roster looks a bit better than the Packer's roster. This might be one rare week where I give the Packers much higher marks in the coaching department. Can't say I'm the least bit impressed by the Schottenheimer/Christian Parker (DC) combination. They ran Eberflus out of town after last season, and they have not improved at all. That defense should be WAY better than it is.

    Becton is probably at the way back of their minds right now as they are up to 11 offensive linemen on the 53 man roster and Banks, Monk and Burton all did limited practices on Friday. They would probably have to just give up on Jennings and release him, and then have another OLmen suffer an injury that would put him out for 4 weeks at a minimum before they would look to add Becton. If they really thought Becton had a future here, it's pretty likely they would have put him on the 53 man roster and then just put him on the inactive list for the first couple of weeks like they did with Zeitler. The fact that he went straight to the practice squad is a pretty good indication that he is an insurance policy, nothing more.

    Maybe should have seen this coming heading into the game. Bears average per carry against was 28th in the league. Bears average per pass attempt against was 23rd. Only team they had faced with an above average point scoring offense through week 4 was Carolina, and the Panthers scored 37 points in that game. Bear's defense early on has been terrible, solidly bottom 10.

    Matt LaFleur humiliating Ben Johnson. A total beatdown.

    Sounds like Marvin Harrison Jr gets traded today. The guy seems to have taken a step backwards every year, we'll see if a new team can get him back on track. It's too bad because the ability is there, but what he's done so far makes it look like he will eventually be a NFL underachiever. Rumor sites say he will wind up with the Texans. Also read that Indianapolis took a long look and decided to pass. At that time the Cardinals were asking for a second round pick, no idea if that is still the asking price or if it has gone down. Everything is a rumor at this point, frankly I could see him landing with about 20 different teams, so it should be interesting to see where he eventually ends up.

    I'm pretty much convinced that Coach Ditka put a hex on the Bears organization after pea-brain Mike McCaskey fired him, and that is why the Bears have been so mediocre over the last 30+ years. True or not, I'll always appreciate him while I know most Packer fans can't stand him.

    Tucker Kraft might be a future trade target for Jerry,

    If they go to a 154 game schedule, I would expect ticket prices to go up a minimum of 5.2% for 95% of the seats, with the exception of a few really low priced crappy seats.

    The Eagles might be able to trade all their offensive linemen away and still be better than the Cowboys. LOL, I love it. 8.5 home favorite against a winless team and they go down. I first looked at the stats with about 8 1/2 minutes left in the game, and at that time the Bucs were up 24-10, first downs were 23-13 Bucs and the total yards were ~390 Bucs-~230 Cowboys. The game was not as close as the final score.

    Wednesday practice- Packers- Did Not Practice = RB-Chris Brooks, OG-Aaron Banks, OG-Jacob Monk, OG-Jager Burton Limited Practice = OT-Anthony Belton, DT-Devonte Wyatt, EDGE-Lukas Van Ness, WR-Savion Williams, DT-Anthony Campbell Full Practice = CB-Brandon Cisse Bears- Did Not Practice = QB-Caleb Williams, RB-D'Andre Swift, RB-Kyle Monangai, OT-Darnell Wright, OG-Joe Thuney, OG-Jonah Jackson, DT-Grady Jackson (rest day) Limited Practice = DT-Shemar Turner, LB-Keyshaun Elliott, LB- Noah Sewell Full Practice = CB-Kyler Gordon, CB-Cam Lewis The Bear's injury list looks much worse than the Packer's injury list at this point of the week.

    Drew Kendall became the Eagles center of choice, and from what I've heard, Jurgens has been awful at guard. It is surprising as Lane Johnson just walked away, leaving them two starters short. And also surprising the Willie Lampkin will take over at left guard. Sounds like he was a really great player at North Carolina, but got written off by pretty much everybody as being an NFL player because he is 5-10 3/8 with 31 1/2 in arms. Now he'll be starting for one of the better organizations in the NFL. It will be interesting to see how he does.

    I'm a bit surprised to see the Packers are only a 3 point dog to the Bears. It's a home game, and Williams is out, but the Packers have not been competitive against average-to-good teams at all. I only say average-to-good, because this early we still don't know how good the Vikings and Falcons are, but they don't figure to be bottom-dwellers like the Jets and an 0-4 Bucs team that are playing with an undrafted rookie free agent QB.

    Right before the season I was watching a conversation with a couple experts (can't remember who, maybe ex-PFF guys) and they were going on about a much improved Saints team and how they looked like a pretty good bet to be a playoff team. All I could figure was that weak division, because I looked at their roster and it didn't look very good to me. I did like the OLine prior to Kelvin Banks going down, and they have some interesting names in the defensive secondary...but the rest of it. With all the problems the Packers have, I'd still take the Packers roster in a nanosecond over that Saints roster.

    What is the timetable for Savion Williams?
  15. JosephC
    Good solid performance. I still have some doubts how this offense will perform against better teams, but I've heard enough to convince me that this is not a bottom third Big 10 team.

    Packers- OUT = OG-Aaron Banks, OG-Jacob Monk, DT-Warren Brinson, DT-Anthony Campbell QUESTIONABLE = OG-Jager Burton, LB-Edgerrin Cooper Bucs- OUT = QB-Baker Mayfield, TE-Ko Kieft, LB-Rueben Bain, CB-Benjamin Morrison QUESTIONABLE = DT-Rakeem Nunez-Roches, LB-SirVocea Dennis, CB-Jacob Parrish

    Penn State were a real mystery team entering this season. I was surprised they were ranked. Just lost too much of last year's team, and then (1) the "existing" Penn State players had to get new to the new staff and schemes, (2) the incoming Iowa State players had to get used to their new surroundings. Again, not to take anything away from the Badgers because a Big 10 road win is a Big 10 road win, but I'm not a bit surprised to see Penn State struggle now that they are into Big 10 season.

    Aaron Banks and Jacob Monk did not practice at all again on Thursday, and now Jager Burton has shown up on the list as having a limited practice with a groin injury. Warren Brinson went from a limited practice on Wednesday to not practicing on Thursday, while the opposite was true with Karl Brooks. Chris Godwin had a full practice on Thursday, which should be a big help to the undrafted rookie QB.

    Commits until someone offers him more money in January.

    I like Pittsburgh's roster and feel they've underachieved so far. The defense looks like one of the most complete units in the league. Young offensive line that could really gel and become a top unit next year. I would trade all 10 of the Packers offensive linemen for C-Zach Frazier in an instant. I don't know if McCarthy is the problem, if Rodgers just isn't consistent enough anymore, or if it's just the players getting used to the new coaches and schemes...but this looks like a good roster. One thing I will say is that McCarthy's choice for a defensive coordinator, Patrick Graham, wasn't a very inspiring pick.

    Aaron Banks and Jacob Monk didn't practice on Wednesday. I'm already assuming Tomlinson in at LG although that is not a given. If Monk is out, then it will be interesting to see if it is Zeitler, Burton or Jennings at RG. Karl Brooks and Anthony Campbell also did not practice, but Warren Brinson did (but was limited). DL is one of the deepest positions on the roster, even if all three miss the game, they still have Wyatt, Hargrave, Ford and McClellan in the rotation. In addition to Baker Mayfield being injured, WR-Chris Godwin did not practice and starting RB-Bucky Irving was limited in practice.
  22. JosephC
    I'm guessing Tomlinson plays and Zeitler is inactive. If Zeitler gets two practices and the team decides he's already better than Jacob Monk, then the organization can get dumped on even more for thinking that Monk was an NFL starting caliber RG entering the season.
  23. JosephC
    Jayden Reed out for the year. Have to wonder if this will turn out to be a career-ending injury.
  24. JosephC
    Morgan/Tomlinson/Rhyan/Zeitler/Belton is definitely nothing to get excited about. Tomlinson has always been a short-area mauler, very limited player when it comes to movement. He was actually named to the Pro Bowl once, never really could figure out how that happened (probably the same reason Keisean Nixon was a Pro Bowler), but he's always been average at best. Zeitler was top-notch five years ago, but he is somewhere in average to below-average territory now. But one thing for sure, if these two old guys aren't totally beat up to the point where they can't play...then they are still an upgrade over Jennings and Monk who can't play and Burton who can't play YET or who can't play NFL guard and should be a center (time will tell).
  25. JosephC
    Silverstein missed the estimate on Zeitler as the deal is reported to be 4.05 million, below the 6-8 million speculated, but he was right in that Zeitler didn't sign for a measly, near-minimum salary money. Adding Tomlinson to the roster was easy, because they had a corresponding roster move in putting Tom on IR. I'm interested to see who's out when Zeitler is added. John Williams seems to be the most likely candidate, but Donovan Jennings is older and was such a disaster that it wouldn't surprise me if he was the guy who is out. Becton could wind up at RT, as suggested by patrickgpe. However, I get the feeling that the league, Packers included, are looking at him as a guard only at this point. I think Belton gets a long leash and Becton is only a RT option if Belton is poor over the next 4-5 game stretch. Obviously, an injury would also open the door for playing time. Travis Glover still might be their best third tackle option. If Glover is the one who is released when Zeitler is added, then I'm wrong about Becton and he probably is added to the roster in a week to be the third tackle.
