The signs all week pointed to wide receiver Randall
| Cobb making his return to the Packers lineup in Los Angeles on Sunday and those signs were correct.Cobb is active for the first time since Week Three as the Packers try to hand the Rams their first loss of the season. Cobb has been sidelined by a hamstring injury and was listed as questionable on Friday.Wide receiver Geronimo Allison is also back in the lineup after missing the last two games. Allison’s status was not in doubt after he failed to receive a designation on the final injury report of the week.Tackle Jason Spriggs and wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown were also listed as questionable JK Scott Jersey White , but both of them are in the lineup. Quarterback Tim Boyle, cornerback Bashaud Breeland, cornerback Tony Brown, linebacker Korey Toomer, offensive lineman Justin McCray Za'Darius Smith Jersey White , offensive lineman Alex Light and wide receiver J'Mon Moore are inactive.The Rams listed wide receiver Cooper Kupp as doubtful due to a knee injury and he’s out for the second week in a row. Linebacker Trevon Young was also listed as doubtful and joins defensive back Darious Williams, running back Justin Davis, running back John Kelly, defensive tackle Sebastian Joseph-Day and tight end Johnny Mundt on the inactive list. In his first year as having direct responsibility for the head coach of the Green Bay Packers, CEO Mark Murphy fired Mike McCarthy. Now Kyler Fackrell Jersey , Murphy will hire his replacement.Monday’s press conference explaining the decision to make a change made it clear that Murphy will be making the decision. However, he’ll do it with active involvement from G.M. Brian Gutekunst, and Murphy insisted that he won’t hire a coach with whom Murphy isn’t comfortable.The duo met with the media, making it clear that they will set no parameters on the search, hoping to find the best candidate for the job wherever and whoever he may be.“We’re gonna find the right head coach for the Packers Davante Adams Jersey White ,” Murphy said.Murphy faced questions regarding his credentials to make the hire, given that he’s the chief executive and not a “football guy” per se.“I don’t want to brag about myself,” Murphy said (before sort of doing just that(. He said that he’s been around football his entire adult life, as a player and in other roles. He explained that he spent 17 years as an Athletic Director at the college level, hiring many coaches.“I’m a football person even though I’m in a position of president Clay Matthews Jersey White ,” Murphy said. “This give the Packers the best chance to have success.”Murphy emphasized that he’ll work directly with Gutekunst, and Murphy express confidence that they will find “an excellent coach.”“This is crucial for the organization,” Murphy said.Indeed it is. The Packers followed 25 years of struggles with 25 years of consistent contention. Fifty years after the Lombardi era, it feels like things are in danger of slipping back in the wrong direction. |
