The Rams played the undefeated Green Bay Packers on Sunday with the hopes of out-smarting one of the best quarterbacks in the game. Perillo will add depth at a position that will be without veteran Andrew Quarless for at least another six weeks because of a left knee injury.

“I think we’ve got that guy, but he’s been hurt the last couple weeks”, said Rodgers, who went on to call Adams “a Pro Bowl-caliber player” as well.
“From my standpoint, it’s definitely a different week”, McCarthy said. In the first 15 minutes, Green Bay averages 10.4 points, more than any other team in the league. He had to make the plays to get this offense moving and he did, rushing for 39 yards, which is a pretty good amount for a quarterback. I want to keep building, keep improving. “This is going to be a tough game”. The Chargers aren’t likely to catch the Packers looking ahead to their bye week.
If the Hawks chalk up another loss this week, then we can talk about panicking. “Not knowing exactly who’s going to be playing and how they’re going to be lining up is really our focus”. With Jordy Nelson out for the season and Davante Adams battling an ankle injury, Rodgers needs to build rapport with a crew of first and second year receivers.
Nose tackle B.J. Raji (groin) and linebacker Nick Perry (shoulder) both sat out practice. The Packers are still unbeaten, so maybe there is no reason to worry. Two picks came deep in Packers territory.
“I think we’ve handled it the right way”. Packers lead series, 9-1. Rivers was the quarterback for the last two matchups, the most recent a 45-38 shootout in San Diego on November 6, 2011. That jersey itself didn’t look much like the actual ’37-’49 jerseys because of the similarly dark hue, it was more of a hybrid throwback which sort of defeats the goal of the whole thing.
Plus, the Packers are motivated to go into their bye week on a high note. Burnett has missed the last three games because of the recurring lower-leg injury. Antonio Gates had a big game for the Chargers, totaling nine catches for 92 yards and two TDs.
“[When] the opportunity presents itself, we’ve just got to make the most of it”, offensive coordinator Edgar Bennett said. In 2010, the Green Bay Packers unveiled throwbacks that paid homage to 1929, a time in which the color palette was severely limited and numbers placed within circles were apparently the rage. The Packers also can’t sleep on Melvin Gordon, the highly regarded rookie running back who starred at Wisconsin and is making a homecoming to his native state.
Tremper graduate Kyle Sebetic is back with the Pack. When Arizona signed Johnson in August, no one wanted him, but the move has proved monumental for the Cards, who are the third-best running team this season (134.8 rushing yards per game) after finishing 31st (81.8) in 2014.
The Green Bay Packers have an offensive line that has kept quarterback Aaron Rodgers upright for most of the 2015 season.
Foles is normally very careful with the football.
My top play this week is Seattle (minus-7) over Carolina.
