I look at my RGM posting statistics, and yeah, I can't help but feel proud. At this point, though, I'm all about winning.

People are only crying because the defense looked 10x worse in the 2nd.

Not that bad, but they had a fumble and INT and it didn't count. Smith made same dumb plays in the end too.

There's no such thing as style points in the NFL. Don't care that the defense gave up a bunch of yards. They made plays when it mattered, and that's more than I could say about the last 4 years of Dom Capers defenses. This was a great road win.

Rodgers plays well in Dallas. It was meant to be.

Random Thoughts:

- Aaron Jones putting Vander Esch in the spin cycle multiple times.
- Z with the **** you to Ray Lewis.
- Jimmy Graham had some great plays, especially in run blocking.
- I thought the offense was really creative in the first half. Really well-designed. Lots of nice motion and misdirection. That creativity was sapped in the second half, though I think Rodgers shorted a couple big throws.
- Both of our starting corners made some great plays. Our secondary struggled a bit when Savage got hurt. Hope he's not out for long.
- Dak remains overrated as ****.

We scored 17 points in the first half,17 in the second. Hopefully Adams is back for Detroit. 9 players caught passes.

Graham and Will Redmond are two guys I and most fans have been frustrated with, but both showed up great today. Kudos.

I watched Jimmy Graham get 2 legitimate pancakes. I thought that the apocalypse was coming. We need some of these injuries to be non-long term. We also need a real weapon at WR.

What a win. I agree with Rodgers this was his best game this year. Looked like 2014 version of him out there. With everyone talking about the schedule I see only 2 “easy wins” in NYG and WAS. Everyone else is pretty solid. Hell, OAK is 3-2. This is turning out to be a really tough schedule. 12-4 this year would be a very impressive 12-4 and should have us ready to face good teams in the playoffs.

Really want the bye this year. Lots of good teams in the NFC so even a wild card game at home would be tough.

I was shocked. I'll be interested to read McGinn's grades on how he did overall. Lots we don't see or notice but I sure did notice a couple of great blocks.

At least he caught the passes, if he had caught against the Eagles, we would be 5-0.

At least one of Graham's blocks was 100% due to Jones. A tree would have done just as good of a job. Looked cool though.

4 catches by the WR's yesterday was unacceptable. Obviously Rodgers missed MVS for a should've been TD, but the WR's were not good at all. LaFleur did a great job with Jones and the TE's at least to cover that up.

I really believe that if this team added a legit second WR, that they could be the favorites in the NFC. The OL looked dominant yesterday -- hopefully Linsley won't be out too long. Jenkins looked like a flat out stud too. Just please add someone like Emmanuel Sanders or someone like that. That would strengthen the WR's immensely -- imagine a nickel trying to cover MVS, lol.

By the end of this season - MVS will be catching Rodger's long TD bombs on a regular basis - and solidly the #2 WR. As #3 - so far Alison hasn't been impressive- I'd like to see Kumerow get more burn.

Turner looked much better at RG than he played against the Eagles. With Jenkins getting the job done at LG - Pack's starting OL looks great - but if/when Bulaga or any other starter goes down we have zero depth

HaroldinGMinor · Post #538 » by **HaroldinGMinor** » Mon Oct 7, 2019 6:08 pm

I'm not sure it's possible to overthrow MVS. Rodgers needs to just launch that thing into orbit.

HaroldinGMinor · Post #539 » by **HaroldinGMinor** » Mon Oct 7, 2019 6:09 pm

Packers gave up some yards in 2nd half but a few of those long passes were absolute prayers.

It was also extended garbage time.
