All Packer Fans Need A Break, My Break, A Week of Golf in Pinehurst, NC!

So, golfing & eating - while eating caught a glimpse of Chargers-Packers Game!  WOW!  No offense or defense!  And what I read about the game, players lost focus & Toooooo much fun!  So, responding with a win against Carolina, a GOOD thing!  And, still first place and 8 wins & 2 losses!

So, after catching up, what observations?

1 - We have won a LOT of close games!  That could be good or bad?  Good, this team DOES come up with a play, interception, fumble recovery, TD run or pass, a the RIGHT time!  Bad, can they keep doing this?????

2 - Offense - run game is hot, run game is not!  Passing game is hot, passing game is not!  Defense makes a big stop, and 2 losses they did NOT.

3 - Turnovers - Packer Defense 9 interceptions & 6 fumble recoveries = 15.  Packer Offense 2 interceptions & 5 fumbles = 7, so Pack is +8

4 - Rankings in League - Total Points for the offense - 11th with 25 per game, defense given up
ranking is 12th at 20.5 per game.  That is a lot of close games.

5.  Injuries - I should not say this, but we have been fortunate so far after 10 games!  Davante Adams has missed a bunch and we still passed the ball.  Lane Taylor starting guard is on IR, but rookie Jenkins has been more than good!  Bumps, bruises, the NFL is a contact sport, I think!

So, what does the "Packer Fan Gut" think?

1 - Stay healthy!
2 - Keep working the run & pass combination!  And, the play action will be unstoppable!  Adams, MUST continue to to be a PRO BOWL type of receiver!  And, will young receivers continue to make plays - (I love Kumerow & Lazard!)  Running game, DO NOT give up on it early in game!  And, Jones & Williams are a good 1-2 punch (AND, keep throwing to backs!)  Tight Ends - Lewis still a great blocker & Graham, COME ON Jimmy!!!!!!
3 - Defense - keep turning the ball over!  And, clean up the poor communication that allows a free receiver to go free!!!!  Sacks & QB hits!!!  And, Smith brothers, keeping leading and having fun!  But, stay away from the WEED!

A great season so far & a FUN team!  Rodgers seems relaxed.  The defense is making plays!  And, isn't it refreshing having a coach that answers question and does not seem to look down on reporters & their questions! So, a BYE week and a chance to take a breath!

Go Pack Go!
