Team: Green Bay Packers Record through 8 games: 4-3 Offensive grade: C+ Defensive grade: B Special Teams grade: B- Coaching grade: B- Overall grade: B- Most outstanding/surprising players(3): Ty Montgomery, Mike Daniels, Nick Perry Most disappointing players(3): Clay Matthews, Eddie Lacy, Sam Shields, Damarious Randall, Jared Cook, Aaron Rodgers Short summary: Injuries and wasted opportunities are the theme for the Packers this year. Rodgers took awhile to shake out whatever throwing issues he had, but has improved over the last two weeks to being close to normal, for him. Lacy never got on track before his injury, Shields and the rest of our CBs being out has turned what should have been a top-5 defense into a sieve. The run defense has been pretty good, with the exception of the Cowboys game, which isn't unexpected. Mike Daniels has been amazing, Nick Perry finally playing worth a drat. Montgomery may be our bizarre answer at RB, not like we really had a run game anyway, but might as well go Air Raid on this bitch if we can't run block anyway. It was a team that started out with a lot of hope and promise, and now we'll likely limp into a playoff spot due to the middle of the NFC being fairly weak, and get knocked out in the first or second round. Can't run, can't defend against a team with a decent o-line. Not forcing turnovers. Just not our year again.
