Brooks ran for 3. 3rd and 7.
Man going 2-0 with your starting qb out, hell yeah I will take that!!!!
Xavier McKinney is really good as a center fielding free safety. Although, it helps when Levis thinks he can meatball it in between Alexander and McKinney.
Levis = 100 dollar arm, 10 cent brain.
Oh, and thanks to the Giants for not bringing back McKinney. Letting him and Barkley go is why they will have a top 5 draft pick next year.
I think the Titans back up QB is praying he doesnt have to go into this game.
The Giants are so bad at this. Let X walk right out of their building

Packers 8 sacks today is the most they’ve had in a game since I was in high school.

Four weeks ago, the Titans decided Malik Willis wasn't talented enough to play for them. They traded him for a seventh-round pick. Willis said this wasn't personal, but he just embarrassed his former team today.
Wouldn't go so far to say Willis embarrassed them...the defense did most the of the pantsing.
Willis was very good in 1H...2H he didn't suck, but didn't really put two good halves together. Maybe that was MLF's fault.
Glad #10 is going to be back for the toughest game on our schedule so far...
Through three weeks you could make an argument that Barkley is offensive player of the year and McKinney is defensive player of the year.
This is also the same franchise that extended Danny Dimes.
Giants are turrible
Underrated positive, the Pack ran pretty well (not even including Willis' 73 yards) against a pretty good run defense that was expecting the run..
Gutekunst, LaFleur, Clements clearly saw something.

They saw something in Michael Pratt too presumably.
Don't want to downplay what Willis has done the last two weeks, because God knows playing in the NFL, much less winning, is a lot harder than it looks.
But the longer you're in the league, the more film teams have on you, the harder it becomes. Willis is benefitting from being an unknown, and teams not having too many of his tendencies to scout. And MLF is also taking advantage of that rolling out some plays and looks the Colts and Titans didn't know what to prepare for.
Willis does a lot of things really well...with his legs certainly, and he is able to improvise well on the move. His arm is pretty strong, but he has yet to hit a WR in stride...drop it in the bucket as it were. He's thrown some balls up that could/should have been picked and our outstanding WR have made plays on them.
He's been an amazing addition to the team given the circumstances...but IMO, #10 cannot come back too soon. Not sure Willis would pay the dividends we are all hoping for over the course of 17 games.
And right now he's a backup and has done everything he's been asked to do.

All the same, I'll take what Willis has given us. He has been here less than month, learned a lot of the system and has led the Packers to two victories. I agree that we need Love back, and hopefully next week. I'm thankful we have a competent backup QB. Probably, the best back up QB in the League, right now.
Should've had 9 sacks. The one Rashan Gary had was called back due to a defensive off sides/encroachment penalty. Regardless, Levis is gonna be bruised and sore tomorrow.

And Sam Darnold is currently 3-0. Sometimes teams catch lightning in a bottle with QB.
It’s so damn refreshing to see good safety play finally. Just saw on the ticker that Savage is out for Jacksonville this week. Not our problem anymore…. I can’t believe we went though all those years with him, hoping he would magically improve.
The way XM had been playing, it's like he's the 12th man on D. It looks that different from last year(s).
Me: oh that deep ball is way off, and holy shit there's a Packer defender to actually catch it!

Agree with everything you say here. I think we got a little lucky we weren’t facing some of the higher quality teams the past 2 weeks. If Malik was forced to air it out a bit more in a shootout type game, I think some of his limitations would have been more exposed.
That all said, kudos to Malik for avoiding any huge game changing mistakes these past 2 games. That alone is a heck of an accomplishment.

I think what has really help Malik these last two weeks is a quarterback's best friend and that is a running game. If they can keep up this balance on offense and continue to play an improved defense, I really like their chances.
It was a different punt. The earlier punt was a touchback because the defender stepped into the endzone before contacting the ball.
