Packers Film Room: AJ Dillon has a big night vs Eagles
AJ Dillon had an explosive night with 90 yards on just 11 touches Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon made some dynamic plays through the air and on the ground while tallying 90 yards on just 11 touches for over eight yards per touch against the Philadelphia Eagles. Generally, the Packers will stress the perimeter on pin and pull or toss stretch with running back Aaron Jones and leave more of the inside work to Dillon. However, in their game against Philadelphia, Dillon had touches on wide zone, counter, toss stretch, and inside zone. Wide Zone Dillon’s first touch of...

Green Bay continues to search for ways to get the ball to Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon The Green Bay Packers’ season might be on the brink, but as was promised early in the season by head coach Matt LaFleur and quarterback Aaron Rodgers, their Pony package with both running backs Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon has grown with some inventive wrinkles and looks.

Is Aaron Jones going to be the Packers’ only Pro Bowler?
Photo by Patrick McDermott/ It’s hard to find outstanding efforts on Green Bay’s 2022 team Last week, the NFL announced that their Pro Bowl voting had opened up. You are now allowed to vote for six players at each position to represent the best of the best that the NFL has to offer in Las Vegas for the league’s “Pro Bowl Games.” These games will be a series of non-contact competitions and a flag football game, as the NFL has ditched their “contact” football game altogether. Star players have been pulling out of the event every year for about a decade now,...

The Packers Are No Longer a Pass First Offense
Benny Sieu-USA TODAY Sports Packers have shown to be more effective as run first, but will they notice. There has been a recent trend in the Green Bay Packers offense. There has been plenty going around about Aaron Jones being the most effective player in the offense, but there is more to it. While the Packers have only shown moderate success this season, the best success has been when they commit to running the football. The other surprising point is the correlation to how Aaron Rodgers’ numbers are actually better when the Packers focus on running. After getting...

Thursday Cheese Curds: Everything depends on the run game tonight at Lambeau
Photo by Stacy Revere/ That goes for both sides of the football in the game between the Packers and Titans. The last time the Green Bay Packers played the Tennessee Titans, the green and gold turned the contest into a rout. Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon combined for 218 yards rushing while the Packers’ defense limited Derrick Henry to 98 yards on 23 carries — plenty good enough to give them a victory. The team will likely need a performance like that once again on Thursday night if they hope to keep righting the ship on the 2022 season, but that’s easier said than...

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Titans provide big challenge for Packers’ ascending run game
Photo by Dylan Buell/ Tennessee’s top rushing defense will put the Packers’ offensive scheme to the test. Two years ago on a cold, snowy night, the Green Bay Packers racked up 40 points and 234 rushing yards against the Tennessee Titans, earning a massive victory at home that helped propel them to home-field advantage in the postseason. This year, the two teams meet once again at Lambeau Field, but Tennessee’s defense should make it much tougher for Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon to impose their will. This season’s Titans defense is struggling against the pass, but...
