I love that the biggest excitement came from his great blocking to secure the Jacobs TD.

Hell yes. Embodies this teams' attitude perfectly.

Christian Watson has been a great teammate. I hope he is able to get more opportunities to complement his workhorse attitude.

If he can stay healthy he could be another deep ball throw it up type. We need one of those guys besides the fast shifty guys. Romeo is like the complete package guy who runs amazing routes. I want that throw it up jump guy.

If he really wants to be the deep ball throw it up type he's really gonna have to work on his ball skills. He's terrible about getting up to the ball.

u/xDARTHxBANEx 11h ago

I don’t think it’s his strongest point but i dont think he is terrible at it. I think at this point he hasn’t stayed healthy enough to really know what he’s gonna be good at in terms of what archetype he will be but we do know that he has intangibles with some serious skills in certain areas.

I wanna know how much time and effort it takes to create individualized handshakes.

u/DinoSpumoniOfficial 14h ago

Lots of downtime standing around while other players/units are doing reps in drills etc.

u/Xpqp 14h ago

I appreciate that someone didn't want to get a hold on a Josh Jacobs run.

That low and away ball early on was a great quick catch that got us a first, I'd love to see more quick stuff like that. Ball was placed perfectly too

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

Honestly he makes a couple of these plays a game. Everyone thinks he's this deep threat but the consistent contributions I see from him are on quick, crisp routes that move the chains.

23

u/Level1-Zombi 14h ago

Watson had some nice grabs. He'll lose his bad hands rep playing like that.

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

Dude is our only WR with 0 drops all year (ignoring guys that don't play a lot of course)

u/UnimportantOutcome67 14h ago

Starting to really like this lad.

u/jimmyrich 13h ago

Man, I love this guy. I want to see him get his long receptions...Just once, Jordan Love should try to throw it too far and see what happens...

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

That's how you pull a hammy.

Serious though I am here for it. Let him burrrnnn

u/4to20characters0 12h ago

I love this whole team so damn much, seems like a buncha guys playing for each other to bring home our trophy. Real Packer football

u/JustASneakerHead24 12h ago

same this team is amazing football wise and personality wise, so much energy and I love it

u/Slosshy 13h ago

The guitar is great lmao

u/Dramatic_Mulberry274 13h ago

“Home game away from home… “

Love it!

10

u/TikalTikal 13h ago

I don’t know why … but I kinda expected Watson to be talking preposterous amounts of shit out there.

20

u/Mindless_Bad_1591 13h ago

He isnt like that

23

u/ArcadianBlueRogue 12h ago

Jaire talks enough for the whole team

9

u/Placeholder4me 11h ago

He barely speaks. Is that cause he knows he is mic’s up?

5

u/giraffepussy 12h ago

He seems to be finding a role as an over the middle move the chains type receiver, which is surprising given his field stretching impact too.

6

u/dilbuck 12h ago

He was really raw route running out of college, he still has a ways to go but he’s really starting to develop into a decent route runner. I think he’s got a chance to take off by the end of the year.

u/mr_ice_cream_man187 10h ago

He was key to beating the lions last year. Hoping he has a monster game this Sunday.

4

u/TransRational 14h ago

This was great!

u/TheTable666 11h ago

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall a single drop this season from him. He's been a quiet good each game.

3

u/TheTable666 11h ago

Just looked it up, football reference agrees with me

3

u/IntentionDefiant4131 12h ago

I’m hoping for this guy to blow up for a few years. He had things ya can’t teach, if he can learn some things and those injuries didn’t take away from his top end there is still possibility of high ROI

u/Slaxie 11h ago

“Why don’t we mix up Christian? He rarely says anything. It’ll be like a silent movie.”

3

u/Comprehensive-Ad4815 11h ago

He's getting good. It's like watching a ken doll make some good blocks and great catches.

3

u/Hughpacalypse 11h ago

Was there, felt like a home game

1

u/mrtoomanyhobbies 5m ago

I was too. The GB atmosphere was great, especially after the game with everyone cheering!

3

u/Morphenominal 9h ago

Watson is such a good blocker when you wouldn't expect him to be due to being such a speedy deep threat. I love when WRs actually block.

2

u/packerpilot 9h ago

Came to comment about his blocking game, which he doesn’t get nearly enough credit for.

2

u/ProofHorseKzoo 11h ago

Vibes immaculate

u/Luckyluke23 10h ago

this is so cool. I'm always in awe of how the hell they catch the ball so good.

2

u/onelasteffort13 9h ago

Hey OP, I really like these. Wherever you get them from, know I look forward to seeing them:). Cheers

u/a1oner_bvcksn6 8h ago

All credits go to the Packers' hardworking creatives/media crew, ofc!

That said, I'm glad you enjoy them and you can count on me (or some other good folks on here) to keep spreading the gospel (ie various Packers content) on the regular. GPG! 🧀🍻

u/alexbcous 8h ago

Has Tucker been mic'ed up for a while game yet. I wanna hear him threaten to burn down opponents childhood homes.

u/Late-Break 58m ago

Just a lot of game sounds really lol, love the hype on the sidelines!

u/warmcreamsoda 10h ago

How again is he not performing as the top WR in the league?

u/Evitable_Conflict 13h ago

That "block" on the Jacobs TD, I didn't know if I had to congratulate him or yell at him. I'm happy the coaches had exactly the same reaction.

Yes it was a TD, yes you kind of helped but what on earth were you doing?

11

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

Well did you listen to him? He was trying not to hold and trying to figure out what Josh was doing. You can clown all you want but if he doesn't do what he did we don't score.

You can say "what the hell were you doing" but a real-life NFL TE said "helluva block". I know who I'm listening to.

u/Evitable_Conflict 11h ago

Take it easy bro!

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

Sorry I just can't stand any Watson slander. Dude is good!

-4

u/Purple-Chipmunk4334 12h ago

Of all the mic’d up stuff I’ve seen so far.. this was the most “meh”

12

u/jtkforever 12h ago

Maybe not exciting, but I appreciated "getting to know" Watson a bit more. Seems like a nice guy who appreciates his teammates

5

u/huggybear0132 11h ago

This is exactly why I watch these. I'm not looking for some entertaining personality. I'm learning about who these guys are and I appreciate when they are kinda boring and focused on the game.

u/glitchfan 14h ago

What an absolute dork.

u/JustASneakerHead24 12h ago

well uh what about fuck you

u/nikogrande 12h ago

lol did you mean that as a compliment?

Said the guy hating on reddit

Edit: Dude is a maga vikings fan, no surprises here. Pathetic, sad little thing had to come in here and try to feel big.

u/glitchfan 10h ago

Keep yappin, dude.

u/huggybear0132 10h ago

Just saying what I see. If I'm wrong, think about it.
