I warned you! Difficult getting into this season! But, I'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm BACK!
So, 3-0, and headed to Monday Night Football against the Falcons! First. let's recap the last two games!
Packers 42 - Lions 21
Rodgers 18 for 30 - 240 yards & 2 TD's with NO interceptions
Jones 18 carries 168 yards for 2 TD's
8 receivers, with 18 catches - spreading the ball around!
Defense 4 sacks - 1 interception for a TD
Last year we had two CLOSE wins against Detroit, nice to have one with 3 TD win!
Packers 37 - Saints 30
First, a win in the Super Dome
Second, a win over the Saints!
Rodgers over Brees!
Rodgers 21 for 32 - 283 yards & 3 TD's and NO interceptions
Lazard 6 receptions for 146 yards and 1 TD
Defense - 2 sacks - one BIG fumble recovery
A win over a potential Super Bowl team is a great win!
So, would YOU take a 3 & 0 start!
YOU BET I WOULD!!
No, the Falcons........ what should we worry about?
1 - Key injuries! After, a career game for Lazard, core muscle surgery - out for 4-8 weeks! Big defensive pick up - Christian Kirksey, inside linebacker, out with shoulder injury? Questionable, Davante Adams, hamstring. Defensive lineman, Clark, groin, questionable. Other smaller injuries? Cornerback-Alexander, Tight End-Degurara, Outside Linebacker-Gary, Tight End-Lewis, Outside Linebacker-Z. Smith. So......
2 - Falcons and Julio Jones at wide receiver? He ALWAYS has big games against Packers!!
3 - Who plays wide receiver, without Adams & Lazard? Valde-Scantling, Shepherd, Taylor?
4 - Who starts at inside linebacker? Summers, Barnes, Burks
What will we see?
How creative on offense will LaFleur be with wide receivers? Can defense have a SHUT DOWN game?
Good news, the Early BYE WEEK is usually NOT good. This year, it IS GOOD. Heal up Adams, Lazard, Kirksey, Clark & others!
Go Pack Go!
