Packers’ injury concerns at WR stretch to Adams

January 18 23:00 2017

Coach Dan Quinn insisted Monday that his All-Pro receiver will be in the lineup when the Falcons play for a spot in the Super Bowl against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers, despite a lingering foot injury that limited Jones in the second half of a divisional-round victory.

But now it’s NFC Championship Week. “You have to overcome it”. “And we know for this week, that process, getting ready, it’s gonna be a great battle that we play”. Nelson sustained the injury during the Packers’ Wild Card game against the New York Giants.

“So that’s a good sign”, McCarthy said.

Not on the injury report was left tackle David Bakhtiari, who missed a few snaps against Dallas after Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee fell into Bakhtiari’s knee. Jones is expected to be limited in practice leading up to Sunday’s NFC Championship Game against the visiting Green Bay Packers.

“We’re totally bummed for A.C.”, Quinn said. “Morgan will do everything he can and everybody is very positive today”. Dallas would not go down without a fight as they would tie the game at 31 with 35 seconds to go, but that would be too much time for Rodgers and co.

Just in case fans were questioning his receiving abilities since he only has three receiving yards in the 2017 National Football League playoffs, Bell racked up 616 receiving yards during the regular season. McCarthy said the familiarity helps both teams.

“I said everybody kind of run over to the left, and get open – not exactly in those words, but that was basically the gist of it”, Rodgers said on the show. I don’t think either Green Bay or Pittsburgh should be as big of an underdog as they are. “It wasn’t serious and hats off to the training staff for putting me in a good position to be protected and safe and finish off the game”. “In order to do that, I thought we needed to keep our composure and that was it”.

The Packers pretty much were disregarded after losing four straight games, falling to 4-6 after a 42-24 loss to Washington in November. They arrived at Austin Straubel International Airport roughly two hours later than scheduled, around 1 a.m. Monday.

What I eluded to earlier is the reason I’m taking New England at home and giving the points. “Got it wet”, McCarthy said of the torrential rains.

Aaron Rodgers has become one of the best improvisational quarterbacks in the NFL. “We shift and motion quite a bit”. “Obviously we were inside (during the game), so we didn’t realize it was happening”.

If the Packers win, Eaves will have to wear a Packers jersey at the next Board of Commissioners meeting. Pittsburgh dominated the entire game in Kansas City, managing six total scoring drives and five scoring drives of 45+ yards apiece.

“Matt’s a fantastic player and has had a great year”, Rodgers said in a teleconference.

Whether or not he dwells on his legacy, there is little doubt Ryan wants to exploit this opportunity to reach his first Super Bowl.
