The Green Bay Packers wrapped up training camp with an impressive all-around performance against the Baltimore Ravens at Thursday’s joint practice.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers wrapped up their training camp by hosting the Baltimore Ravens for a joint practice on Thursday.
“You throw a pick, you never want it to happen, but it’s all about the next play and bouncing back. You can’t get stuck on that, a negative play. it’s just going to lead to more negative plays. So, just trying to bounce back from that.” In the second, with the ball starting inside the 10, Love threw four passes. All four resulted in touchdowns. The first was a screen to tight end Tucker Kraft, who ran through Simpson’s tackle attempt near the goal line. The second was to Doubs, who initially was covered on an out near the pylon. Doubs took a step or two inside, then bounced back outside and was wide open.
Love was “sacked” only once and generally had ample time to survey the defense. There were several downfield completions, so it wasn’t as if Love had to settle for a bunch of checkdowns. - Up first, Jordan Love wasted no time in getting the No. 1 offense into scoring range with downfield completions of 20 yards to Jayden Reed and 37 yards to Romeo Doubs to the Ravens’ 13.
Another Jackson-to-Bateman completion gained a first down, but time was running out. Jackson clocked the ball with 9 seconds left, had to throw it away with 3 seconds left and Justin Tucker was short from 62 yards. “It's a mixture of route knowledge and using the quarterback as your tool,” Williams said after his fifth interception of camp. “The one to my side just eliminated and so once you kind of feel that route go away, you have a sense that there's normally not two out-breaking routes on both sides. You're normally going to get something coming from the other side.
Joseph, who had been slumping, anyway, was wide left from 44 yards to start the day. He bounced back to convert from 45 and 53 yards during the field-goal period and from 51 yards in the 2-minute drill.- Green Bay’s defense – and the defensive line, in particular – dominated. The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman served as our eyes as we focused on the offense.
“I’m just excited to see them Week 1 and throughout the rest of the season,” cornerback Jaire Alexander said. “Those guys are going to make our jobs easier and then we’re going to play off them. It’s going to be a show.”Whether or not the defense plays in the preseason game on Saturday, the performance will build momentum to Week 1.
