I\u2019m pretty much non-verbal after watching the Green Bay Packers choke away a second straight game to the Chicago Bears (and they tried to do it three times). Here\u2019s a quick rundown of the team\u2019s snap counts. If I have something to say about it, it\u2019s noted. No full breakdowns this week.<\/p>\n
The offensive line was Rasheed Walker, Aaron Banks, Sean Rhyan, Anthony Belton and Jordan Morgan from left to right. Backup center Jacob Monk was injured on field goal protection, and starter Rhyan was injured in the fourth quarter, costing the Packers a 10-second runoff. Lecitus Smith played center for the last three plays of offense. Darian Kinnard\u2019s two snaps came at tight end, one of which he caught his first pass of the season and fumbled.<\/p>\n
Nick Niemann did not officially get a snap, but was the player in coverage who was scored on for the two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. The Bears played heavy personnel on that play, with extra offensive linemen and tight ends on the play. The Packers matched it with their goal-line defense, with extra linebackers, which put Niemann on the field following Edgerin Cooper\u2019s injury. In normal defensive situations, Cooper was replaced by Isaiah McDuffie, the team\u2019s usual third linebacker in 4-3 looks, who was backfilled by Ty\u2019Ron Hopper.<\/p>\n
The Packers finally used Keisean Nixon as their returner in this game, showing the world that their preferred returners, when the game is on the line, are Nixon and running back Josh Jacobs. This team is not trying in the return game in the regular season.<\/p>\n
Also, Trevon Diggs only played one snap the entire game, defense or special teams.<\/p>\n
Evan Williams missed one snap and was replaced by Kitan Oladapo on the play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I\u2019m pretty much non-verbal after watching the Green Bay Packers choke away a second straight game to the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":654211,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[7,2703,2704,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-668701","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-green-bay-packers-depth-chart","10":"tag-green-bay-packers-roster","11":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115876351637121446","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668701","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=668701"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668701\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/654211"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=668701"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=668701"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=668701"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
