Packers Panthers Preview
Posted on 16 Sep 2011 by Mitch McLaughlin.
After winning a shootout over the 2009 champion New Orleans Saints last week and with the defending division winning Chicago Bears a week away on the schedule, it would be easy for the Green Bay Packers to overlook any opponent. Now when that opponent was the NFL’s worst in 2010 and has a rookie quarterback, it would even be easier to see the Packers looking past the Carolina Panthers on Sund...

Thompson’s bold decision pays off 3 years later
Posted on 2 Feb 2011 by Mitch McLaughlin.
The Green Bay Packers are back in the Super Bowl, this time with quarterback Aaron Rodgers; the 27-year-old signal caller who has led his team to the big game, in just his third season on the job. So it would seem like General Manager Ted Thompson made the proper move back in 2008, going with the youngster as the team’s starter. However, national pundits still have asked Packers players the...

Super Bowl bound Packers proved doubters wrong
Posted on 27 Jan 2011 by Mitch McLaughlin.
The 2010 Green Bay Packers proved lots of doubters wrong this season by advancing to Super Bowl XLV, including this one. I doubted Ted Thompson would make the proper moves to get this team deep in the NFC playoffs. I doubted Aaron Rodgers would make the necessary plays to put the Packers in position to win a fourth Lombardi Trophy. And as of now, they’ve silenced this doubter and I’m sure m...

A win in Minnesota won’t come easy
Posted on 19 Nov 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
On Sunday, the Green Bay Packers will try to put the final nail in the coffin of the 2010 Minnesota Vikings, something that won’t come easy. The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome has been a house of horrors for the green and gold in recent years. From Mason Crosby missing a game-winning field goal to blowing a 17-0 lead ending with Paul Edinger making a 56-yard field goal, the toughest place to ea...

Rodgers’ struggles root of Packers’ problems
Posted on 20 Oct 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
What has happened to Aaron Rodgers? The guy, who was being claimed as a MVP candidate going into the 2010 season, hasn’t been that so far for the Green Bay Packers. In the past four weeks, the Packers are 1-3 with the three losses all being by a game-winning field goal. The team definitely misses injured starters running back Ryan Grant and tight end Jermichael Finley, but the inability to pr...

Thompson, the time is now
Posted on 6 Oct 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
Ted Thompson, will you do anything now that Randy Moss has been traded inside the division? Based on the past, probably not, but for this team to realize its potential as a Super Bowl-caliber team, a bold move from Thompson maybe what’s holding it back. After the injury to starting running back Ryan Grant in week 1, the Packers running game has basically been non-existent. Brandon Jackson and...

Bears loss seemed like Deja Vu
Posted on 30 Sep 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
For the Green Bay Packers, Monday night’s loss to the Chicago Bears had shades of the 2009 season. The gut-wrenching loss was eerily similar to the crushing defeats suffered a season ago to both the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals. In all three instances, the Packers beat themselves as much, if not more than their opponent. A team-record 18 penalties negated big first downs, slo...

It Is Time For Bulaga
Posted on 22 Sep 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
It has been a great run for Green Bay Packers left tackle Chad Clifton. He came back from Warren Sapp’s vicious hit in 2002. He’s done a great protecting the blind side of just two quarterbacks in the past 11 seasons, keeping them both upright for the most part. But after Sunday’s benching, his run as the left tackle could be nearing an end. Teams do not draft offensive lineman in the fir...

Finally a big road win for the Pack
Posted on 14 Sep 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
A win, the kind of win the Green Bay Packers had Sunday in the unfriendly confines of Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field, is the kind of win that has eluded the team since the Aaron Rodgers-era began two years ago. The Packers’ last road wins in an environment like Sunday were back-to-back wins in Denver and Kansas City in the middle of the 2007 season. Since then, Green Bay had only wo...

Can Shields handle the nickel back position?
Posted on 9 Sep 2010 by Mitch McLaughlin.
A defense’s 12th player isn’t usually such a crucial position, but for the Green Bay Packers, that player might determine the fate of this year’s talented team. Heading into its Week 1 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles, it appears Green Bay will be counting on undrafted rookie Sam Shields to play that vital role. And not just play it, play it well. Green Bay is in its second season run...
