Over a two week span Womens Kyler Fackrell Jersey , Acme Packing Company takes a look at each position group on the Green Bay Packers and provides grades and insight on how they performed in the 2018 season. Today we examine the inside linebacker group.In 2018, the Green Bay Packers’ inside linebacker group did not do many things to impress. There were not many splash plays. No interceptions, no scoop and score plays. It was a pedestrian group of players led by a solid starter. Blake Martinez made the headlines and played the role of fan favorite. There was not great depth at this position and it hurt at times. StartersBlake Martinez2018 Stats: 144 Tackles (91 Solo), 10 TFL, 5.0 sacks, 3 passes defendedStarting all 16 games, Martinez had the most plays among all Packers linebackers. He was on the field for 98.6% of all defensive snaps, missing just 15 plays all year. Only the Colts’ Darius Leonard had more tackles this year. After getting just a single sack in each of his first two seasons Muhammad Wilkerson Jersey , he ended up with five this year. Martinez also had six QB hits, double the total of his first two seasons. Part of the improvement in his pass rush might be the change in defensive coordinators from Dom Capers to Mike Pettine.Still, Martinez was less involved in pass coverage this season. He has among the fewest passes defended among the league’s top tacklers — of the 18 players who had 120 or more tackles, just three had fewer pass breakups than Martinez.Antonio Morrison2018 Stats: 48 Tackles (27 Solo), 5 TFL, 1.0 sackMorrison was added to the team right at the beginning of the season. He was able to add some force and attitude near the line of scrimmage, but did not see the field in passing situations. He did not manage a single Pass Defended. Also, he only played 28.1% of the snaps.He provided good size and run stopping ability to a team that lost Jake Ryan in the preseason.Still Womens Kyle Murphy Jersey , he was a limited player with a clear role to play.BackupsOren Burks2018 Stats: 24 Tackles (18 Solo)Burks was in his first year out of Vanderbilt after the Packers selected him in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He is a lighter, faster linebacker and it limited his usefulness on running downs. He suffered a shoulder injury during training camp and it hampered his ability to see the field much early. In a system that will need a pass covering linebacker, he should be able to see the field more in the coming years.Korey Toomer2018 Stats: 3 Solo TacklesToomer is a journeyman who has played with the Chargers, Raiders, Rams and Cowboys. Heonly played 12 defensive snaps. He mostly managed to see the field on special teams.James Crawford2018 Stats: 9 Tackles (8 Solo), 1 Fumble RecoveryCrowford saw only one defensive snap, but managed to play 70.7% of all special teams snaps. He was a guy for depth who gave the Packers good special teams play. With the failure of the Packers special teams in 2018, it is hard to see how much value he really might have provided to the season at large.Overall Grade: C+This collection of inside linebackers has a single player who produced at a high level. Packers spent a lot of time in single linebacker sets and Martinez was that linebacker. Meanwhile Womens Za'Darius Smith Jersey , Pettine lined up several safeties at linebacker as well, with Jermaine Whitehead, Josh Jones, and even Eddie Pleasant getting some snaps next to Martinez. Burks and Morrison had limited roles and the rest were special teamers at best. There is very little serious depth and not a lot of help if Martinez does not make the plays. The Packers will be a big draw as usual this year, but they face a tough stretch of travel to close out the year."It’s finally here. Start making your travel arrangements, because the Green Bay Packers’ schedule for the 2019 season is finally official. The NFL announced all 32 teams’ schedules in a press release Wednesday evening. For the upcoming season, the Packers draw the NFC East and AFC West divisions in addition to typical home-and-home games against their NFC North foes.A few notable items stand out about this schedule at first glance. First of all, the Packers as usual get the maximum number of prime time games: five. However Bart Starr Jersey , only one game is on Sunday night — a week eight date against the Chiefs. They will have two Thursday games (both in the first month of the season) and two Monday night games as well.In addition, the home/road splits are interesting. The Packers will be at home for five of their first seven games, then close the season after a late bye week with four out of six on the road.
