Running backs coach Ben Sirmans
On Aaron Jones picking up blitzes:
I think without question, the No. 1 thing to be a good pass-protecting back is your heart and your will to make sure that the guy you're blocking is not going to get to the quarterback. And that's one of the things that he...

Good morning, gents. As one fan who loves the look of the Packers' offense with Allen Lazard in the lineup, it strikes me as amazing that he has come back this quickly from core injury and surgery. Can you shed some light on his recovery journey and the people involved...
GREEN BAY – Head Coach Matt LaFleur hasn't minced words about it all week.
"We're going to have to have our best performance of the season on special teams," LaFleur said referring to Sunday's matchup against the Colts in Indianapolis. "And our guys know that."
It's easy to see where LaFleur...
Worse, Hornung isn't the victim of just this slight. The Hall of Fame also has a display – or at least it did on my last tour there about five years ago – on Lombardi's famed power sweep, where it created the false impression it was a play run by Jim Taylor as much as Hornung if not more; again...
The Packers' offense was off to a prolific start before injuries set in, joining the 1991 Buffalo Bills as the only teams in NFL history to register 85-plus points and 1,000-plus total yards in the first two games of a season, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Then, Adams tweaked his...
"He's been getting better in his role," defensive tackle Kenny Clark said. "(On Sunday), he was winning a lot of his rushes, and his bull rushes were great. He's a guy that's improving, that's going to keep on improving. I'm just excited about his development."
Gary, the 12th overall pick in...

Looking at the Rock Report on the final series...Rashan Gary gets the sack on second down, then he has Jake Luton in his grasp before he escapes and gets tripped by Preston Smith. If you watch the end of that play he's still chasing Luton as the QB goes down. Then on...
Aside from the injury factor hampering peak performance, in Green Bay's two home games over the past three weeks, the miserable weather has made it difficult to get things clicking.
While Rodgers said he doesn't mind the local winter elements as long as it's not too windy or wet...
Registration is now open for the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame's 11th annual "Tundra Tales" at-home reading program for students in grades 4K through 8. The registration deadline is Friday, Jan. 15, and the program will run from Jan. 25 through March 28, 2021.

DeAndre Hopkins, with the assertion that PIs usually happen because a DB is beat, thinks PI yardage should count towards receiving yards. An interesting thought, given the potential impact of incentives and comps for contract negotiations. It's somehow akin to getting to...
Dallas is getting Dalton back for the Minnesota game which should help their chances. How much will Mike McCarthy's familiarity with Minnesota be an asset?
Anytime you have a familiarity with a defense like Zimmer's, it'll help. They're really good at disguising stuff and knowing that going...
THE DOPE ON THIS WEEK'S OPPONENT:
MATT LaFLEUR…In his second season as the Packers' 15th head coach.
FRANK REICH…In his third year as the Colts' 19th head coach.
Packers DL Billy Winn played for the Colts in 2015…Colts CB Tremon Smith spent parts of the 2019 season on the Packers' active...
The Green Bay Packers and WPS Health Solutions paid special tribute this week to U.S. Army Sergeant First Class Joshua Friday and his family in conjunction with Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Operation Fan Mail, the program that recognizes military families and veterans at...
They did all right. I thought Ka'dar Hollman was fine in his first NFL start but this defense needs Jaire Alexander and Kevin King healthy for the stretch run, especially with the QBs the Packers have coming up on the schedule.
Matt from Bloomington, IN
I'm still hot about Myles Jack's flop...
Gary follows up his good pressure from Play No. 2 above with a sack this time, once again beating Taylor around the edge. But it's fun to watch this sack from behind the QB to see what actually happened. As Gary is getting Taylor to retreat deep into the pocket on one side, LB Za'Darius Smith...
GREEN BAY – The Packers' secondary had been playing without No. 2 cornerback Kevin King for a month, but Sunday the group had an additional challenge.
It was also without No. 1 corner Jaire Alexander, leaving the young trio of Chandon Sullivan, Josh Jackson and Ka'dar Hollman matched with...
GREEN BAY – For the second consecutive week, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been nominated for the FedEx Air Player of the Week following Sunday's 24-20 win over Jacksonville.
Fans are encouraged to vote for Rodgers, with the winner being announced Wednesday.
Rodgers, who also was...
