Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 2: Emptying the Notebook on the Offense
During the season, I tend to dig into either specific plays or look at some of the bigger picture takeaways. Scheme and gameplan and blah blah blah. The preseason is different because those things don’t really matter. I’m more concerned with how individual players looked. So I watch a ton of players, taking notes and […]
Tyrod Taylor vs. Kyle McCord: The Case Against Each Packers QB
A few days ago, I tried with all my might to make the case for why each of Tyrod Taylor and Kyle McCord are worthy of being the Green Bay Packers QB2. Dear reader, there was a reason that article was like 300 words long. With one preseason game left for the Packers, the team […]
Green Bay Packers News: Green Bay becomes the city of brotherly love for a day
You may have heard that there’s a family reunion happening in Green Bay this week. Have you heard about this? Apparently Matt LaFleur and his younger brother Mike are both NFL head coaches, and their teams are playing each other for the first time. I’m sure this is news to everyone reading this. The LaFleur […]
Packers vs. Cardinals Preseason Week 3: Game time, how to watch, streaming, & more
Just sixty more minutes of preseason football remain before the Green Bay Packers can move on to the business of games whose final results matter. Tonight, the Packers host their one and only home preseason game, welcoming the Arizona Cardinals into Lambeau Field for the teams’ exhibition finale. The two squads, coached by brothers Matt […]
Packers RB Josh Jacobs charged with battery and criminal damage to property
The Brown County District Attorney’s Office announced on Thursday that the county has officially charged Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs after he was initially arrested for a domestic abuse complaint back in May. Jacobs was let out of county jail after a short stint this spring, as the county continued to investigate the […]
Green Bay Packers to sign TE Jonnu Smith
NFL insider Jordan Schultz is reporting that the Green Bay Packers are signing tight end Jonnu Smith, who has previous experience playing for Packers head coach Matt LaFleur when they were together with the Tennessee Titans. This report has been confirmed by other news breakers like ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Smith will join the Packers on […]
Green Bay Packers News: Keisean Nixon is going to play. A lot.
There’s a version of the Keisean Nixon conversation that has been playing on loop in the greater Packers chattersphere: He misses a tackle, gets flagged, gives up a completion, or maybe shows poor effort in a preseason game, and suddenly the question becomes why the Packers keep him around at all. That criticism isn’t entirely […]
The Packers’ Disney Draft Pick vs. Every Opponent on the 2026 Schedule
With the big game set to air on ABC and ESPN in February, the NFL announced a collaboration with Disney as part of Disney and ESPN’s “Year of the Super Bowl.” The press release shares that the organizations teamed up with Champion and Fanatics for a “draft” that paired a Disney-owned icon with each NFL […]
Packers-Cardinals joint practice: Live updates
Since today’s practice is a different vibe than the rest of the Green Bay Packers’ practices so far this summer, as the Arizona Cardinals are in town for the final day of training camp, I figured that we should have a different type of practice post up on the site today. Instead of doing a […]
Niche CBA rule unlikely to impact Packers roster at cutdowns
With the preseason nearly over and cutdowns on the horizon, very little on the Green Bay Packers’ roster seems up for much debate. Like most years, it’s about weighing keeping an extra receiver or an extra defensive back, or to keep nine or ten offensive lineman. Most of these decisions, particularly at the non-line positions, […]
Green Bay Packers News: Final roster work underway as training camp winds down
For the players who find themselves on the roster bubble, it’s getting to be about that time. The Packers have joint practices with the Cardinals this week and a preseason game on Friday, and then it’s cutdown weekend; the Packers will trim their roster to 53 players by early Sunday evening. Suffice it to say, […]
Explaining the Green Bay Packers’ new 3-safety package
I’ve been getting some questions about the Green Bay Packers’ “three-safety package,” and how it’s different — if at all — from the team’s Nickel package. After all, if we’re playing a third safety in the slot in Nickel, a role that Javon Bullard has usually played, then how is this package any different? I’m […]
2024 Cardinals defense: Jonathan Gannon’s most consistent season
As I explored the data around new Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jonathan’s Gannon’s Cardinals defense, it appeared to me that 2024 was their most consistent year. Largely because they relied more on early down zone coverage for the entire year, unlike 2023. And if 2023 was about how much zone the Cardinals could run, […]
Aaron Banks, the Packers, and the sunk cost fallacy
The Cleveland Browns and their years-long saga with Deshaun Watson has brought up a lot of arguments citing the “sunk cost fallacy” as to why the Browns should stop considering their quarterback’s hefty contract when making decisions about their future. The Green Bay Packers might already have a similar (albeit less impactful) situation on their […]
Green Bay Packers News: Cardinals arrive for joint practices
Now that the long-threatened and long-feared Rivalries uniforms have been revealed, all that’s left between the Packers’ and the regular season is a week of practices with the Cardinals and one last exhibition game. For it is Cardinals week. The Arizona Cardinals are in Green Bay, squaring off with the Packers in the last bit […]
Thumbs up or thumbs down to the Packers’ new Rivalries uniforms?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Packers fans and fans across the country. The Green Bay Packers’ new Rivalries uniforms have arrived, and they sure are…something. Our Jon Meerdink broke down the story of these uniforms in detail, so […]
Packers unveil new ‘Rivalries’ uniform
The Packers have unveiled their new “Rivalries” uniforms, and they confirm what we’ve previously suspected: the uniforms pay tribute to the Packers’ unique ownership structure, and Ed Policy was absolutely right in his extremely tepid praise for them. These are certainly among the Packers’ uniforms of all time. The set trades the Packers’ iconic green […]
Tyrod Taylor vs. Kyle McCord: The Case for Each Packers QB
As we march towards the Green Bay Packers’ final preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals, all (some) eyes will be on the battle for the backup QB spot, which is being fought by veteran Tyrod Taylor and second-year player Kyle McCord. With starter Jordan Love missing some time in each of the previous two seasons, […]
Packers Training Camp Recap: Final open practice before the Cardinals come to town
The Green Bay Packers had about a two-hour practice on Monday that got a chippy at the end. The first fight started between receiver Matthew Golden and edge defender Barryn Sorrell, two Texas Longhorns who were brought to the Packers via last year’s draft. According to reports from the press, linebacker Zaire Franklin and edge […]
Packers’ Matt LaFleur gives injury updates on Brandon Cisse, Aaron Banks, others
Green Bay Packers fans can breathe a sigh of relief on the statuses of a few of the team’s key players who were injured in or before Friday’s preseason game in Denver. Speaking to the press ahead of the team’s penultimate open practice on Monday, head coach Matt LaFleur provided a positive update on Brandon […]
Has Packers’ defensive line goes from weakness to strength in record time?
At the end of the 2025 season, the Green Bay Packers’ defensive line was running on fumes and waiver claims, and the team’s inability to stop the run was painfully apparent. A defense that had allowed an average of 98.3 rushing yards per game through its first 11 games gave up 164.2 yards per game […]
Green Bay Packers News: Time to temper expectations after two games?
Through two preseason games, the Green Bay Packers have seen plenty of encouraging signs from the players who should have key roles in the regular season. The first game saw the third and fourth string units get exposed in the second half, but in both contests, the starting offense and defense looked solid at worst. […]
Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 2: Trey Smack
By now, I think we’ve all seen Green Bay Packers special teams coordinator Cam Achord’s presser where he talked about how the hold will change depending on different factors while kicking a field goal. But, in case you missed it, here it is: Here’s a bit of a summary:1. A lot of kickers like the […]
Packers Discussion: How many Green Bay players are roster locks?
It’s a little bit of a dead period in camp, where we can finally all catch our breath after Friday’s preseason game against the Denver Broncos. Why not embrace debate? How many players do you think have a roster spot locked in going into the preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals, where the backups should […]
Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 2: Jordan Love
Last week, we looked at Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love’s 5 dropbacks in the opening preseason game. We’re doing the same thing with this week’s game against the Denver Broncos. Love and the first-team offense only got one drive, but it was a long one: a 12-play, 63-yard drive that took 6 minutes & […]
