    Pettine on Packers' defense: 'We have to go out and earn it'

    Defensive backs coach Jerry Gray On Rams WRs Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp: They're very good in space, they can cut on a dime. Cooper Kupp is a really good receiver, very smart, understands stems, understands how to use your leverage against you. And then Woods is pretty much the same. I've...

    Inbox: Maybe his isn't done getting better

    Lynn from Butler, IN Do you believe someone on the Rams staff reads the II to try to get insight on what's going on with the Packers' plans for the game? I hope so, because it'll probably be to their detriment. Ryan from Colfax, WI Mike, reading Cliff's story on all of the "premature"...

    Jaire Alexander owns his swagger in shutdown season

    Pettine, in his third season as Green Bay's defensive coordinator, knows a thing or two about how a lockdown cornerback can change the complexion of a defense. He had one of the game's best, Darrelle Revis, for four seasons with the New York Jets. "Revis Island" was the Bermuda Triangle in...

    Don't get distracted: Packers must do what got them this far

    It's probably not on third down, where the Packers ranked second in the league in efficiency (49.4%) while the Rams defensively ranked third (35.4%). That one might be hard to win in any significant way. But regarding turnovers and the red zone, the Packers are better and must play to that...

    Inbox: You can never have enough Allen Lazards on your team

    Danny from Johnston, IA I could not believe the stat I heard during the Rams-Seahawks game last week that since McVay has been the Rams head coach, they have not lost a game where they had the lead at halftime (37-0 in those games). That is a scary stat and makes me think we have to get out to...

    The Green Bay Packers have been to the playoffs seven times since they last won a Super Bowl and just about everyone seems to have their opinion as to why they haven't added another Vince Lombardi Trophy to their collection.

    Inbox: Only he knows for sure

    Keegan from Atlanta, GA How much of the Rams' defense is predicated on turnovers? Does Rodgers' ability to avoid interceptions tilt the No. 1 offense vs. No. 1 defense battle in our favor? Rodgers' ball security is a big part of this offense's efficiency. It's not so much the Rams' takeaway...

    Matt LaFleur, Sean McVay know 'the gloves will be off' Saturday

    GREEN BAY – Life was a lot different for Sean McVay a decade ago. Before he was the highly acclaimed head coach of the Los Angeles Rams, McVay cut his teeth as a tight ends coach on Mike Shanahan's staff in Washington in the early-2010s. McVay was a single guy in his mid-20s without a lot of...

    Mike's Mid-Week Chat: Who are the X-factors for the Packers vs. the Rams?

    In your opinion, who is the better matchup for the Packers defense? Wolford or Goff? I don't think that matters too much, really. The scheme is predicated on play-action to make the QB successful, which is why clamping down on the run is the key defensively. Seattle couldn't contain Akers and...

    There's good reason for this Packers team to believe

    GREEN BAY – The Packers were a confident bunch last year at this time, but this year they're at another level. Not the dangerous take-for-granted or "we-got-this" type of assuredness. But in repeating their 13-3 record from a year ago, the Packers feel better about who they are, and they have...

    Must-see matchup: Davante Adams vs. Jalen Ramsey is as good as it gets

    That said, it is the playoffs, and it's another first-team All-Pro with more to offer than anyone Adams has faced in his monster, record-setting season (115 catches, 1,374 yards, 18 TDs). So yes, there will be some extra video prep for Adams this week, but not to the point of over-absorption...
