He had some snaps in the Cardinals game and I remember seeing him making a few plays but I don't know how many snaps he played.

Hopper flashed by knifing in and dropping the RB at about the Packer 10-yard line and then ... went to the bench.

McDuffie has not been bad, but it is a bit disappointing that Hopper does not get much run.

Phrasing.....in this climate let's phrase that a little better Matt.

Aaron said after his two years in NY that he realized how well of a run the GB organization was.

Grass is always greener on the other side.

He even said something like that's why he chose Pittsburgh because it's ran similar there.

I also think Parsons is right about that not being a hip drop tackle. That was just Brissett being a really big dude who didn't go down like 95% of other QBs would have.

Sounds like Watson will be back this week.

Getting Wyatt back this week would be huge. Pass rush has still been good without him, but it looked pretty much unstoppable when he was healthy and providing that juice from the interior.

If McManus comes back and even misses one kick it will be interesting how many Packer fans turn on him quickly with the success of Havrisik.

Yup, I think that's guaranteed. People have short memory. Havrisik has exceeded all expectations, but we haven't seen him kick in Lambeau's swirling December winds yet either.

This is one of those games where we might see all sorts of second-guessers chiming in.

If Rogers plays great, some of the real chapped Rogers fans will call for Gute's head for driving him away.
If Rogers isn't effective, some will comment on him being washed up
If Love has a tough night, some will complain on that
If DK has a great night, we will hear about the missed opportunity.
If TJ Watt has a great night, we will hear about that he should have been a Packer......,.... and should
If Hobbs gets torched playing outside, we will hear about that
If the Packers OLine struggles, I'll carp about that.

IF the Packers win with limited drama, it will be a relatively quiet night :lol:

If he wants to do the one day contract thing when he retires, that would be great

Aaron has discovered that the grass isn't necessarily greener elsewhere. Surprise surprise.

Anyway, I'll celebrate his career when he retires as a Packer. Until then, I want to watch him fall flat after the way he tried to burn bridges on the way out.

Wicks already being rapidly phased out of the offense and I'm 100% fine with it. With Watson back, him, Golden, Kraft, and Doubs should be soaking up all the targets.
