Joe Flacco is apparently going to get another shot at the Packers (and vice versa).

The Jaguars' offensive line has a double agent.

The Jaguars finally wear their good uniforms, and look what happens!

The Packers have officially opened the 21-day practice windows for Christian Watson and Jacob Monk.

The team also worked out the following players on Monday:

DT Tommy Akingbesote
DT Anthony Campbell
DT Keondre Coburn
DT Fabien Lovett
DT Omari Thomas

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor declined to commit to Jake Browning as the starting QB for the second time since Sunday's game ended.

The Packers host the Bengals this weekend.

Post-bye questions that the Packers need to answer (besides the obvious ones) The Packers have plenty of questions to answer coming out of the bye, but not all of the important matters have garnered sufficient attention.

With the Eagles losing earlier today and the Bills trailing in the fourth quarter, the NFL could have no undefeated teams left after five weeks.

If that happens, it would mark the earliest point in a season that the last undefeated team went down since 2014.

The Jets needed to reset this past offseason, and that remains true even as they barrel toward an 0-5 start. Still, the level of glee that the team's leadership exuded about casually tossing Aaron Rodgers to the side for Justin Fields remains bewildering.

The discourse is discoursing

Earlier today, I talked with Ric Serritella on All Access Football about the state of the Packers.

That's not the indicator you think it is. His role has been exclusively special teams, and he was one of the players removed from the field-goal unit during Week 4. His reps in practice didn't change until after Belton got hurt.

The timing there was based on having an open roster spot carried over from the prior week and team leadership having their day-after meetings on Monday.

I don't think this is someone worth worrying too much about. Brant Banks was elevated because Anthony Belton was hurt, not because of the injuries to the starters. Belton is expected back when the Packers return from the bye regardless of whether Zach Tom or Aaron Banks can go at that point.

The Titans claimed rookie offensive lineman Brant Banks off waivers from the Packers.

Banks had spent the season to date on Green Bay's practice squad. He was elevated for game day in Week 4.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur on potentially opening Christian Watson's practice window coming out of the bye:

"That's been in discussion."

Packers HC Matt LaFleur on lack of takeaways:

"There's been a couple more out there for us that we haven't quite capitalized on. … We're going to continue to emphasis it and continue to work on it. I do think it's a matter of time before we get a couple more to go our way."

Packers HC Matt LaFleur on blocked extra point:

"You're supposed to give body presence. We've got to extend our outside arm by the tight end. It got knocked down. All in all, it wasn't good."

Packers HC Matt LaFleur describes Devonte Wyatt (knee) as "week to week."

Packers HC Matt LaFleur on Zach Tom and Aaron Banks returning after the bye:

"We'll see. I don't know. ... We'll get a better indication on Monday."

🫡

Wyatt had his imaging today. If it's a worst-case scenario, they'll know by then, and there's no value in hiding it.

If it's a situation where he legitimately uncertain to play in Week 6, then you're probably right.

LaFleur speaks tomorrow, so we might get an update then.

The Packers avoid a loss in Dallas, but they can't survive like this Conservative decisions and another week of special-teams implosions underscore how far the Packers still have to go in order to reach their potential in 2025.

On Sunday, the Packers couldn't deliver the knockout punch against a depleted opponent. They have several problems, and the bye week can't fix all of them.

Entering Monday, Jordan Love's +10.6% completion percentage over expectation from last night is ranked second in the NFL for Week 4, according to Next Gen Stats.

Packers QB Jordan Love on Micah Parsons' return to Dallas:

"For him, there was probably a lot of emotion coming back here, wanting to have a great game. He made a big-time play right there when they were close to the end zone. It's tough. ... You don't want to end it in a tie."
