Seems like every writer, blogger and fan forum has a “5 things to watch” or “3 things to look for” post to preview an upcoming game. Usually, the items are fairly general and rather obvious; things like, “the offensive line needs to pass protect better and the defense needs to create turnovers.” For many football fans, that’s good enough.
But you’re not just any NFL fan are you? No, you’re a Packers fan. And if you’re a repeat visitor to this web site, there’s a good chance you’re a rather rabid Packers fan that knows a thing or two about the game of football. From what you readers tell me, you like to read about Xs and Os, break down plays on film and discuss the more subtle aspects of the game of football.
I’m a firm believer in “give the people what they want,” so our “3 things” post will strive to be a little different. We’re going to delve into the not-so-obvious aspects of the upcoming games and give you some very specific things to lo

AllGreenBayPackers.com Staff: Final 53-man Roster Predictions
Packers 53-Man Roster Predictions:
(Note: With regards to suspended player Erik Walden, our prognosticators had the option (as the Packers do) of either adding a 53rd player for week one or going with 52. If going with 52, then there can be no third year practice squad players (Anthony Levine and Graham Harrell are eligible). In either case, Walden will not be used in our roster...

Thomas Hobbes: My Initial Packers 53-man Roster Prediction
Well here we go again, last year I was completely off and I don’t expect to be much different this year. I have however thought a lot about the rationale for creating a NFL roster and I came up with these ideas a couple weeks ago, which I’ll try to use as my baseline rules.

Harrell beats back critics with perfect QB rating
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers was not pleased with the way the media and the public had been treating his backup quarterback, Graham Harrell, throughout the preseason.But Harrell's play had warranted criticism.

Packers finish preseason in fine form; final roster being formed
The Green Bay Packers completed their 2012 preseason schedule last evening at Lambeau Field, beating the Kansas City Chiefs 24-3 and ending with a 2-2 record. It was, as any Packer fan would hope, a sign that things are coming together on offense and defense. Now, to be honest, the number one unit on both offense and defense looked a bit spotty in their play. Didn't do much of...
Run defense only weakness against Chiefs
The Packers' final preseason game was an opportunity for the 75 players still on the team to show what they can do. While evaluating the younger players, Green Bay simply needed to leave Lambeau Field without any serious injuries. Assuming that the ankle injury suffered by defensive lineman B.J. Raji is not serious, which it does not appear to be, the Packers left in good shape...
