While the league remains anti-fun late in regulation

[url=http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-dean-lowry-jersey]Womens Dean Lowry Jersey[/url] , it has not fully closed the door on giving both teams possessions in overtime."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareShareNFL votes against changing onside kicks, will wait to decide on OT possessionJim Brown-USA TODAY SportsFootball fans watching the AAF have been treated to a new feature. Onside kicks have largely gone away, replaced by a fourth-and-12 attempt from the trailing team’s own 28-yard line. This year at the NFL Annual Meeting, the 32 owners voted on a proposed rule change that would have adopted a similar play as an option for teams trailing late in games. The change would have instituted a fourth-and-15 play at the 35-yard line instead, making the challenge a bit more difficult but making the line to gain an extra 10 yards of field position down the field.However, despite the rule earning some early traction among the league’s Competition Committee (seven of eight members reportedly voted in favor of it), the rule change is dead for 2019. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that this change made it to a vote, but did not earn enough support to pass.24 of the NFL’s 32 owners (a three-fourths vote) are needed to pass any rule changes.For now, the NFL will continue to ensure that teams trailing late in games have a near-zero chance of getting the football back on offense quickly. In the 2018 regular season, just four of 52 onside attempts were successful [url=http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-marquez-valdes-scantling-jersey]Marquez Valdes-Scantling Jersey[/url] , despite there being 12 successes on 57 attempts the previous year. With the 2018 rules for kickoffs being made permanent — a rule change that did pass at this week’s meeting, along with a handful of other minor tweaks— expect no surprises on onside kicks again in 2019.However, there are other rules change proposals that still have a chance of passing. The Kansas City Chiefs proposed giving both teams an opportunity to possess the football on offense in overtime, and according to Pelissero, that rule will not go to a vote at this meeting. Instead, the owners and Competition Committee will apparently think it over for two more months and will make a final determination at the league’s spring meeting in May. In the meantime, the Chiefs will likely adjust the rule proposal to simplify it, according to Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin.Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, for his part, made his preference known when speaking to the media at the meeting:On Tuesday afternoon [url=http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-josh-jones-jersey]Josh Jones Jersey White[/url] , the owners are also scheduled to discuss the rules proposals regarding instant replay reviews, notably the proposals regarding penalties. Stay tuned for updates regarding the debate about these potential changes. Win or lose, Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur has stressed the need for his team to “hit the reset button” and move onto the next game.That will be as important as ever following a 37-8 loss at San Francisco on Sunday night.The Packers were coming off a bye week so should have been prepared mentally and physically. Having played a tougher schedule, they were the more tested team. And they were the healthier team. But with first place in the NFC on the line, Green Bay was dominated in all three phases.Green Bay must shake off this game before hitting the road to face the struggling New York Giants. How can LaFleur ensure Sunday night’s outcome doesn’t linger?“By going back to work and taking it one day at a time and putting in the right prep. That’s the only way I know how to bounce back from anything,” LaFleur said on Monday. “I’ve got confidence in these guys that they’re going to. Everybody was hurting in that locker room.“Everybody was disappointed. And I think these guys will battle. What I love about our group is I didn’t feel like there was anybody pointing fingers. We’ve all got to look inward — coaches, players, everybody involved — and look at ourselves and be honest with ourselves about what we can do better. We’ve shown we can do a lot better than this. You’ve got to give the Niners a lot of credit — that’s a good football team — but we know we didn’t play to the level of our expectations.”WHAT’S WORKINGGreen Bay’s pass rush was perhaps the only bright spot. Outside linebacker Preston Smith added a half-sack to push his team-leading total to 10½ sacks. Fellow outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith had 1½ sacks to reach 10 sacks for the season. That gave Green Bay a 10-sack tandem for only the second time since sacks became an official stat in 1982.WHAT’S NOT WORKINGNothing worked against the 49ers. Offensively, Green Bay averaged 2.82 yards per play, the fourth-lowest figure in the entire league this season and failed to move the chains on its first 14 third downs.Defensively [url=http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-aaron-jones-jersey]Aaron Jones Jersey White[/url] , the Packers once again showed a total inability to cover tight ends. Including the 129 receiving yards and one touchdown by San Francisco’s George Kittle, the opponent’s No. 1 tight end has averaged 100 receiving yards the past five games. The 61-yard touchdown by Kittle was a game-breaker, with the Packers having just pulled within 23-8.“Against a team of that caliber, with one of the best defensive lines in the National Football League and with a sound back end, where they’re not going to give up big plays, that’s a big-time challenge to really overcome that type of deficit in their home stadium,” LaFleur said.STOCK UPIn four seasons with Baltimore, Za’Darius Smith had 18½ sacks. He’s got a career-high 10 this season after tallying 1½ sacks, three quarterback hits and a team-high six tackles.STOCK DOWNWhen Davante Adams missed four games with a toe injury, running back Aaron Jones helped pick up the slack with 22 receptions for 280 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Adams has caught seven passes in each of his three games back in the lineup but Jones has caught 1 of 4 targets for minus-1 yard. He didn’t have any catches against the 49ers.“That falls on me right there [url=http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-ray-nitschke-jersey]http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-ray-nitschke-jersey[/url] ,” LaFleur said. “I’ve got to do a better job of making sure he’s in the game when some of those plays are called for the halfbacks.”INJUREDRight tackle Bryan Bulaga suffered an injured right knee during the first quarter.“Bryan’s been a rock for us at right tackle,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said after the game.Alex Light, an undrafted free agent in 2018, replaced Bulaga but might not get the call against if Bulaga is out against New York.“We’ve got some other thoughts potentially to make sure that we put our best five out there,” LaFleur said. One option would be to shift right guard Billy Turner out to right tackle and insert Lucas Patrick at right guard.KEY NUMBERS6.7: Green Bay’s third-down conversion rate after going 1 of 15. That’s the third-worst performance by any team in the NFL this season. Meanwhile, there have been only eight times this season in which a team failed to move the chains 10 percent of the time. San Francisco’s defense was responsible for three of those games.“We were terrible on third down,” Rodgers said. “The games we’ve got out and played well on offense, we’ve had a good run game. They shut us down for a good part of the night running the ball and we couldn’t really throw it either.”NEXT STEPSThe Packers are tied with Minnesota for the NFC North lead at 8-3. Green Bay will play at the Giants (2-9) on Sunday and host the Redskins (2-9) and Bears (5-6) the following two weeks before playing at Minnesota in Week 16.
