These guys going ham on the food was awesome

Probably the 1st the food they were handing out actually looked like it wouldnt taste like rubber.

Jacobs was looking at those legs like a fat kid looks at cake the moment they lifted the lid

Would have been weird to lose this game and have Leroy serving Tua

Is the RB position back? I'm sure it's been a talking point in the sea of NFL coverage already but it is kind of interesting that so many of the good teams this year are being powered by good vet RB pick ups.

I think it's more due to the fact these good RBs joined already good teams (Barkley, Henry, Jacobs).

Yeah. Every time they bring up just how good the records are for there new teams versus their old ones I'm just thinking "those old teams still sucked last year with them"

I think there's something to the shift back to running the ball. Could be a recognition that the league has been drafting pass-first back end guys for a while.

I was thinking: I hope safe hands rb Jacobs doesn’t drop the platter of food!

The heavy pre-snap motion offense has breathed new life into the running game. Also, helps that these superstars at their respective positions can be had for like half the price of a wr 2/3 nowadays.

They went into dont **** up mode sooner than I would have liked but they still won easily so I guess it worked.

The offense was fun for the most part. Hopefully the dropsies don't pop up when it actually matters. That **** is frustrating.n

Jaire needs to quit breaking himself. The defense needs him.

It also helps that modern defenses play so much nickel and dime they basically dare the O to run on them.

I'll note with Barkley, Jacobs, and Henry I think it's just a fluke that 3 extremely talented RBs hit FA while on bad teams and went to good teams AND have stayed healthy. That ain't happening every off-season. But generally we have probably overcorrected on RB contracts and now there's actually value there with some vets.

Have to give credit to the entire Packers organization, even Mark Murphy.

The culture is once again panning out. Coach, GM, player personnel moves. It’s all there.

Now just stay healthy and get to a Super Bowl this year or next.

I was going to make the same point. I'd say there is a clear market inefficiency with top flight RBs at this point. Teams should not be letting guys like Henry, Jacobs, and Barkley walk for what they got paid.

Henry is a bit different because he's older, but holy **** what a bargain for a guy who can do what he does in that offense. Jones has also been great for Minny, so kudos to them as well for signing a guy who is that dynamic on the cheap. Joe Mixon has been fantastic for Houston.

All the guys I mentioned are players you can design an entire offense around. Crazy that they hit FA and are available for cheap.

You could spend a 1st round pick and not hit on a guy as good as Jacobs, and the Packers got him on a great deal while he's still relatively young.

Jacobs is an absolute dude. Love watching that guy play.

Shout out to twirl who was ragging on him immediately in week 1.
