Packers already have the formula to win without receivers thanks to ground game, defense
Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams can carry an entire offense, not just the ground attack | Photo by Quinn Harris/ With the Packers’ top trio of receivers likely out Sunday, Aaron Rodgers will look to unproven options in the passing game. Given the way Green Bay’s defense and ground game has been going, those injuries may not matter. Forget for a second the Packers have Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay boasts a suffocating defense with an elite duo of pass rushers and one of the best young secondaries in football. They’re turning teams over, creating sacks, and getting stops in the red...

Lions at Packers, Week 6, 2019: Second-half game updates & discussion
Photo by Stacy Revere/ The Packers, trailing 13-10, will receive to start the second half. Drops. Referee confusion. Too-many-men penalties on special teams. Monday night’s showdown between the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers had it all during the first half. After a slow start in which the Packers allowed 13 points while scoring none, the team battled back to cut the Lions’ lead to just three points. The comeback effort came while Aaron Jones and Jimmy Graham dropped would-be touchdowns and Geronimo Allison failed to corral several other passes from Aaron Rodgers. Still, the...

Packers’ Aaron Jones named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for week 5
Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports The Packers get their first OPOW award since the last time they played in Dallas. Maybe it was the yardage. Maybe it was the four touchdowns. Maybe it was the glut of broken tackles. Or maybe it was the fact that he was the key catalyst in a huge victory over a fellow NFC contender. Whatever the reasons (plural) and however the decision-making process takes place, Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones has a new honor to put up in his trophy case. That is the award for NFC Offensive Player of the Week, as the league announced Jones as the winner of the...

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Packers’ OL & a slippery Aaron Jones are tough to defend
Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports Jones was a tackle-breaking machine, but even so he had some great holes to move through thanks to his line up front. Football is won in the trenches. It’s an old cliche, but it still seems to hold true — the team that controls the line of scrimmage generally wins the game. Then again, it doesn’t hurt when the guy running behind a dominant line is practically impossible to tackle. The Green Bay Packers got both of those pieces of the equation on Sunday as they defeated the Dallas Cowboys 34-24 in Jerry World. Line play is often a bit difficult to...

APC Podcast, 10/7: Discussing your reactions to the Packers victory over the Cowboys
Photo by Andrew Dieb/Icon Sportswire via The feedback after this convincing win was an oddly mixed bag. Davante Adams didn’t play, Aaron Rodgers didn’t throw a touchdown, Dak Prescott amassed 463 passing yards, and the Packers won, defeating the Dallas Cowboys 34-24 on Sunday afternoon. Despite some garbage time production making this game appear closer than Packer fans would have preferred, Green Bay's win probability never dipped below 95% in the second half. In a game where Matt LaFleur was tasked with creating production without Davante Adams, Aaron Jones shined, notching 4...

Aaron Jones put up the Packers’ best receiving game from a RB since 2014
Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports Eddie Lacy was the last Packers runner to record at least 75 receiving yards in a game. It has been almost five years since a single Green Bay Packers running back recorded as many receiving yards as Aaron Jones did on Sunday afternoon in Texas. Jones was a monster in Sunday’s game, rushing for over 100 yards at 5.6 yards per carry and scoring four touchdowns on the ground, but his receiving contributions were critical to the Packers’ game plan. Jones finished the game with 75 receiving yards on seven receptions, good for an average of 10.7 yards per...
