When Gute got up this morning and looked in the mirror: "Oh yeah, I'm good; oh yeah, I'm good".

The Smith's have been outstanding and Amos and Turner looking real good too.

Are you sure that is your analysis?

3 fumbles. Plenty of dropped passes. Arod could have put some in a better spot, but some of those passes need to be caught.

I also noticed WRs, beyond Adams, couldn't get open. Right when ARod throws an INT, "Rodgers needs to stop starring down Adams". If ARod wouldn't have made that throw and taken a sack it would've been "ARod needs to get rid of the ball".

Davante clearly gets the ball because we have no TE and the rest of the WR crew sucks. I barely noticed TEs were on the field.

I recall 2 pass plays on a drive in the red zone. Both times no one was open. The 2nd time ARod threw it pretty much up for grabs. Then we get "that's not like ARod"....main point here,no one was open.

Finally, the point of this rant, the rest of the O wasn't fine. Arod didnt play a perfect game, made some bad throws, but he needs a little more help from players other than RB and Adams.

There's no way to see who is open or not without being at the game, or checking the all-22 tape, which I don't believe is out yet.

Rodgers' accuracy was all over the place. His swing pass to Jones was too high, the drop by Lazard was well behind him, and the end zone pass to Adams was too low. They all could've been caught, but Rodgers has more responsibility to throw it accurately.

On the interception, it was also an inaccurate throw. So your point that Rodgers not holding on to the ball causes turnovers is incorrect. It wasn't because he threw it that the turnovers happened (two were fumbles that had nothing to do with him), but the interception occurred because he threw it inaccurately.
I agree, Rodgers just wasn't that accurate last night.

Overall I stand by the 'fine' comment on the O. The oline was good, Adams and Jones were good but turned it over so have to dock them for that. Lazard made some third down plays, blocked well, but had that drop. Packers TEs just aren't very good. So all and all it was fine, some good some not.

The reason I posted though was just to say I wouldn't downplay the Ds performance. I don't care who you're playing when you completely dominate a NFL teams line like that on the road it's an impressive showing. Cook may have helped a little but he would have also been getting hit 2 yards deep in the backfield.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Just watched a clip of Ryan Clark breaking down Kings INT props to him for pointing this out.

The Vikings were running the same play that King got burned on in their first matchup. The Packers ran the exact same bracket coverage only with Jaire having the initial coverage and King read right of the bat from the opposite side of the field (Jaire did also in the first game just didnt get there in time)

Now that's learning from your mistakes
