The Green Bay Packers are now 3-3 and are recovering from an embarrassing 27-10 loss to a Jets team that finished 4-13 in 2021. Zach Wilson went 10/18 for 110 yards compared to Rodger’s 26/41 for 246 yards and a touchdown, and making matters worse, Randal Cobb left the game with a gruesome injury and has an unknown status as the Packers prepare to face the Washington Commanders. Against the Jets, the offense could not get going. The Packers are now in desperate need of help at receiver. Matt LaFleur said post-game “That’s about as frustrating of a game as…

Per Ian Rapoport of the Ian Report, DJ Moore will not be available for the Packers to add via trade. The Packers will have to find help for Aaron Rodgers somewhere besides Carolina, and DeSean Jackson isn’t the answer.  The Carolina Panthers are listening to offers for Christian McCaffrey but will not take offers for other players yet to reach their prime, like DJ Moore or Brian Burns, per Ian Rapoport. After firing Matt Rhule Monday and an unknown timeline on quarterback Baker Mayfield’s return, the Panthers were rumored to be discussing a potential fire sale, unloading talent from their…

Wisconsin Football 1

Until last week, Paul Chryst’s name has been synonymous with Wisconsin Football, but Chryst was fired after a 2-3 start to the 2022 season. After eight years of Paul Chryst football in Wisconsin, the school is suddenly tasked with finding a new face of the football program. Vegas has a favorite in the race to replace Paul Chryst; presently, the odds are fairly tight. Here are a couple of close calls who didn’t make the list, but could later emerge: Dave Doeren, Matt Ruhle (who is an interesting candidate), Tom Herman, Matt Campbell, Chris Peterson, and Dan Mullen. Here are…

Packers wide receivers

Brian Hoyer will have nightmares about Rashan Gary for a very long time. The Green Bay Packers defeated the New England Patriots Sunday to start the 2022 season 3-1. It was an ugly overtime victory where both teams had opportunities to clinch a win. Bill Belichick and The Patriots came well prepared and ready to play, and at times the Packers appeared to be giving this one to the Pats. Fortunately for the Packers, Aaron Rodgers made several critical throws, and AJ Dillon found gaps in the defensive line in overtime and the fourth quarter. Let’s recap what went right…
