GREEN BAY, Wis. Cheap Robert Woods Jersey . - Offensive lineman Josh Sitton could use a break.Unfortunately for him, the NFL schedule calls for Green Bay and its standout left guard to play the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night a€” just five days after the Packers last game.This didnt make him happy on Tuesday.I hate it, Sitton said.Life in the trenches can be enough of a grind with the pounding that occurs in the running game. That part of the Packers offence has been a problem, so far, ranking just 28th in the league at 73 yards per game.Tuesdays are when offensive linemen really feel the pounding. Its usually a day off in a normal work week in Green Bay.This is no normal week.I think its stupid. I think its all about money for the NFL, obviously, Sitton said regarding Thursday night games. Thats what this league is about, is about making money a€” which is fine. I like to make money, as well.But, yeah, its tough on your body, tough on your head, Sitton said.Every team has to go through it. In one area, this might be an opportune time for a Thursday game for the Packers given that their passing attack is on a roll.Aaron Rodgers threw for 302 yards and four touchdowns in a 38-17 win last week over Chicago. Receivers Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb had two scoring catches apiece. Nelson leads the NFL with 33 catches for 459 yards.But running back Eddie Lacy, last years offensive rookie of the year, had another subpar day a€” and his 48 yards were still a season high. Lacy at least scored his first rushing touchdown of the year on one of his 17 carries.Yeah, I think we did some good things, but the offence is still not where we want it, Rodgers said. Obviously, wed like to have some more balance. We didnt run the ball real effectively.Sometimes its going to happen when you throw it so well, but weve got to be able to close out games running it a little more effectively.Lacy is averaging 3.0 yards per carry. Backup running back James Starks didnt get a carry, though coach Mike McCarthy said Tuesday that was the result of poor game management and that Starks should touch the ball every game.But in the Packers hurry-up offence, in which tempo is key, sometimes the opportunities for clock-eating drives marked by grinding runs just arent there.When the Packers are in shotgun, Lacy is standing next to Rodgers. The bruising back isnt getting a head start of a few steps to build up momentum against oncoming defenders. Its an adjustment for Lacy. Last year, the Packers were more reliant on him with Rodgers out nearly half the season with a collarbone injury.Its not that I dont like running from out of shotgun or I dont like running from (the quarterback being) under centre, you have to do what you have to do. And this is just part of what you have to do, Lacy said.The easygoing Lacy would love to have more yards, but remains patient.The pass game has been crazy good the past few games so why mess with it? At the same time, youre going to need to be able to run the ball just to create balance and make sure the defence cant concentrate on stopping one thing, Lacy said.McCarthy sees the low production as a result of lack of volume. Green Bay had 18 running plays against Chicago, and hasnt had more than 22 in a game in the first four weeks.There are opportunities to both run effectively and maintain tempo, the Packers maintain.Well, the biggest thing within our run game is weve got to get the attempts up, so we need to keep generating first downs, McCarthy said. Anytime you have a successful run game, youre definitely pushing 30 attempts.Sitton, looking a bit worn while sitting at his locker, offered his unique view about the lack of production on the ground.It was simple and to the point. He sounded tired.Were not blocking good enough. The running backs arent running good enough. The quarterback is not making the right check all the time. Receivers arent making their blocks good enough, Sitton said. Were not good enough in the run game right now a€” all around.___AP NFL websites: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP_NFL__Follow Genaro Armas at http://twitter.com/GArmasAP Cheap Tavon Austin Jersey .J. -- Richard Sherman, Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch deservedly draw the attention for what theyve done in getting the Seattle Seahawks to the Super Bowl. Cheap Jared Goff Jersey . The Boston Celtics hadnt played since the All-Star break. So the Suns 100-94 victory over Boston Wednesday night was an uphill affair, with Phoenix relying on balance rather than its trademark high energy.Toronto Rock General Manager Terry Sanderson confirmed on Friday that the Professional Lacrosse Players Association (PLPA) has withdrawn the appeal of the one-game suspension assessed to Rock defender Craig England. England will now serve a one-game suspension this Saturday when the Rock travel Rochester after the PLPAs appeal had allowed the rookie defenceman to play last week against Buffalo.
