Tucker Kraft is out for the year. Here are three potential ways the #Packers can fill the void left by their best offensive playmaker.

Three solutions for Matt LaFleur to revamp the offense after Tucker Kraft tears his ACL
The Green Bay Packers will be without their best offensive playmaker for the rest of the season after Tucker Kraft tore his ACL. Once again, the head coach will have to make it work.

Great stat from Joe House on Bill Simmons’ podcast: Teams that play on Thursday after playing an OT game are 6-25 against the spread since 2000.

Lions defense played over 37 minutes vs the Giants. Packers didn’t even play 23 minutes.

That’s half a game difference on a short week.

The teams who can slow down the Packers offense have been able to get pressure without blitzing.

Just winning matchups.

Lions are 28th in Pass Rush Win Rate.

They like to blitz but Jordan Love is the most efficient QB in the league when blitzed this season.

The Lions will be playing what is really their third-string center today and a backup LG who struggled last week.

Micah Parsons might not line up outside on a passing down more than a handful of times all game.

Teams are trying to run the ball and control the clock against the #Packers.

Jordan Love and the offense can be the best run defense GB has.

The Lions went from being the worst possible matchup for the Packers to what I think is a really good one.

This GB defense doesn't give up explosives and is great vs. outside runs.

And unlike last year, this is an ELITE offense vs. man coverage and blitz looks.

The “Love is a scheme merchant” is especially delicious coming from NFC North fans where KOC, Ben Johnson, and Dan Campbell are the coaches and Jared Goff is the quintessential scheme QB.

If Love is a scheme merchant and he’s out-producing YOUR QB, then LaFleur kicks ass.

If you're the kind of person who prays, my family could really use them right now.

The underlying metrics matter, but only to a point, because you can bank enough wins to get yourself a shot to be frisky in a one-game playoff situation.

But eventually, the bill tends to come due in the playoffs.
November 24, 2025 at 7:56 PM
Also, back in 2019 when the underlying metrics didn't love the Packers, I heard from all the Vikings and Bears fans (Lions fans were still wearing bags on their heads), about how DVOA and point differential said GB was a fraud.

Funny that stuff mattered then.

Very amused I have to do this dance with an NFC North fanbase every year.

Enjoy the wins! No one can take them from you. But "you are what your record says you are" is the biggest lie in sports.

Records lie ALL the time on team quality.

For our Free Monday @theleap.bsky.social newsletter, I wrote about Micah Parsons' gravity, Matt LaFleur's (overly) conservative approach, and some key backups who stepped up in important ways for the #Packers.

Micah Parsons' gravity on full display as pass rush comes alive against the Vikings
J.J. McCarthy didn't stand a chance. The Green Bay defense heated him up all game, led by Micah Parsons, and the attention on Parsons allowed others to feast as well.

On Sunday, the defense played its best game since September, the ground game got going, and the special teams actually did a thing!

We reacted live to a 23-6 beatdown of the #Vikings.

Is Brandon Aubrey better at his position than anyone else is at their position?

For a defending Super Bowl champ, the Eagles have REALLY faded in some of these fourth quarters.
November 24, 2025 at 12:46 AM
The Steelers traded George Pickens to play a worse, older WR a billion dollars.
November 24, 2025 at 12:42 AM
The Vikings managed 110 net total yards and 52 net passing yards.

This game is going to finish before some of the early games even get to the fourth quarter.
November 23, 2025 at 8:32 PM
That might have been a fumble too, just right to McDuffie.

Beating the shit out of a divisional rival, even with a playcalling so conservative, Waukesha County is going to ask Matt LaFleur to run for office.

Third-and-short playcalling has been booty cheeks today.
