Lanschaften » The Green Bay Packers are likely to be without one of

their starters on offense Youth Kenny Clark Jersey , but the good news is that they have been humming along just fine without him in recent weeks.Wide receiver Geronimo Allison came down with a new injury in practice this week, adding a groin issue onto the hamstring problem that has plagued him in recent weeks. Of course, the hamstring popped up while he was rehabbing from a concussion, and this combination of issues has allowed him to play in just one game over the past four weeks (though the Packers did have a bye in that span). On Friday, Allison was ruled as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots, thanks in large part to that groin injury.However, the two games that Allison missed saw the team rack up 521 yards in each contest, by far the high-water marks on the season. The team’s rookie receivers were a big part of that production, led by fifth-rounder Marquez Valdes-Scantling; and even when Allison did return last week http://www.thepackersfootballauthentic.com/mason-crosby-jersey-authentic , MVS took more snaps on offense (31 to 30) and saw five targets to the veteran’s one.Therefore, keep MVS in your sights for this week, and Allison’s likely absence should also mean more snaps for Equanimeous St. Brown as well.Besides Allison, the Packers have three other players on the report, all listed as questionable for Sunday. Fellow wideout Randall Cobb is on that list, thanks to a hamstring problem of his own, joined by starting outside linebacker Nick Perry and safety Jermaine Whitehead. All three players practiced on a limited basis on Thursday.The Patriots have a much lengthier report, however. One starter has officially been ruled out: right guard Shaq Mason, whose calf injury will keep him off the field. He will be joined in street clothes by backup guard Brian Schwenke Youth Kevin King Jersey , who is also out. New England then has a whopping 13 players listed as questionable, including such notable names as Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman. However, besides the two guards, every Patriots player except reserve linebacker Nicholas Grigsby did practice on at least a limited basis on Friday.Here are the full reports for the two teams’ week nine matchup.Packers Injury ReportDoubtfulWR Geronimo Allison (hamstring/groin)QuestionableWR Randall Cobb (hamstring)OLB Nick Perry (ankle)S Jermaine Whitehead (back)Patriots Injury ReportOutRG Shaq Mason (calf)G Brian Schwenke (foot)QuestionableLT Trent Brown (ankle)RT Marcus Cannon (concussion)LS Joe Cardona (shoulder)WR Julian Edelman (ankle(WR Josh Gordon (hamstring)LB Nicholas Grigsby (illness)DL Geneo Grissom (ankle)TE Rob Gronkowski (ankle/back)LB Dont’a Hightower (knee)TE Jacob Hollister (hamstring)RB Sony Michel (knee)WR Cordarrelle Patterson (neck)DE John Simon (shoulder) If you could sum up the first three games for the Green Bay Packers’ offense in two words they would be “slow start.”The second halfcomeback against the Chicago Bears in Week 1 and the ill fated attempt to make a game out of it last Sunday against Washington illustrated the biggest challenge for Green Bay this far: sluggish starts in two of three games by the offense has put the team in a hole at halftime.Aaron Rodgers is playing on one bad knee and possibly two given reports he injured his hamstring on Sunday. He isn’t as mobile as he usually is. This means the Packers should be running a quick, dink and dunk offense as that has been proven to work since Rodgers got hurt in Week 1.Instead, as was on display against Washington, they tried to look for big plays to develop which in turn leads Rodgers to revert to his bad habit of holding onto the ball too long. As a quarterback with an injured leg you can’t do that and when the right side of your offensive line is beat up, you REALLY can’t do that.The word that must describe the offense going forward is “patience.” Chew up yards, be surgical and get the ball out of Rodgers’ hands as fast as possible.Can they adapt? Coach Mike McCarthy’s uncanny ability to cling to a script is his Achilles’ heel. It’s clear what works for the Packers now. They have to go that route. Sticking with what hasn’t is a fool’s errand.We’ll see what happens against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday Youth Jaire Alexander Jersey , but it’s safe to say not many feel McCarthy has learned his lesson.There’s more on the offense needing to develop patience as well as how Oren Burks made a big first impression in today’s cheese curds.Analysis: Green Bay Packers’ pinball offense must also show patience—PackersNews.comThe Packers will always live and die by their offense and the offense has to get used to playing shorter ball while Rodgers’ is hurt. Anything else is a risky proposition.Packers rookie WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling earns high praise for special teams work—Packers WireValdes-Scantling has been the only rookie receiver active for all three games and that isn’t an accident. His speed makes him dangerous on special teams and if he ever develops as a receiver the Packers may have another weapon on their hands.Rock Report: Unforgettable!—Packers.comBurks made an impression on his very first snap after missing the first two games of his rookie season. Larry McCarren breaks down Burks stopping an Adrian Peterson run where, had Burks not attempted the tackle, he could have made a big play.More Aaron Jones could mean less stress on Aaron Rodgers—ESPNJones only had seven carries against Washington. He’s clearly the best running back on the team yet McCarthy wants to continue with a “by committee” approach.That won’t continue long if Jones continues to make plays.Colorado cafe closed to ‘bear shenanigans’—UPIDon’t feel bad, Packers fans.
