Perfect thread title. This is the roster. These are the coaches. This is the time. This is it. This is happening, right now. Offense and Defense.

As far Special Teams: Opie can punt, Crosby can kick, and Burks and Summers  can cover. Austin on returns. They’re fine.

I'm glad two people can cover.  What about the other nine?

Fun game to watch.  Very happy to see Dillon fully recovered and looking worthy of his second round draft status.  With Jones hobbled a bit, Dillon may be a valuable piece of this offense.

Alexander, Gary and Savage all looked great yesterday.  Savage isn't just getting interceptions on poorly thrown balls; he's making plays on the ball using both his athleticism and intuition.  That's what makes a safety great.  And Gary.....he's strung a few good games together.  Really hope this continues because he's going to be an important piece in this run defense in the playoffs.

And Rodgers and Adams......just wow.  Teams know where the ball is going and there's nothing they can do.  I was pretty down on Adams in his sophomore season and so glad to be proven wrong.  I haven't seen a Packers receiver dominate like this since Sterling Sharpe.

+ no yellow tv first down markers.

Agree with you Flpacker and not with the Boris thumb down.
I'll try to find an audio file I have of a Jim Rome traveling show in GB.
Shawn Jones came on and talked about what an ahole Sharpe was especially during his hold out.

I've heard that interview. That was at the very end.

My thumbs down relates to Sharpe giving the middle finger to the media at the time because they all sucked but Sharpe was great to the kids especially with the riding the bike in training camp. The kids loved him & that told me all I needed to know at that time.

I think Sharpe didn't like being lower on the "Star" ⭐ totem pole after Reggie & Favre towards the end. Such as life -- he's still a Packer Hall of Famer.

Ancient history!!

Another negative of Titan win.

Only the 2nd team Pack has beaten with a winning record. Play some better teams!!

Bears next up at 8-7

Yep, hard to win with a receiver who tops 100 catches every year.

You ever been on a team...coached a team? Selfish guys eat away at team chemistry and too many coaches "tolerate" them to the detriment of the team.

So you get rid of Sharpe because the media doesn't like him. Got it.

I think we can all agree that Sharpe was a gigantic D'bag during his hold out but he was pretty damn good as well.

As for the game I think this really was a statement win for this team.  I don't say this much but damn the defensive preparation and execution was perfect to me.  Henry got 98 yards but it took him 23 carries to get that many.  I honestly thought he would have gone off for 200 yards on the run defense but ABM dialed up exactly what was needed.

What can we really say about #12 at this point?  We are seeing pretty close to perfection at this point.  It also helps him to have the running game going.  I will give a ton of respect for MLF's offense he wants balance and making a real effort to run the ball.  This will keep the defenses honest and open many things for #12.

Now on to the Bears!

Sterling seemed like the opposite of his brother, it always seemed like his brother Shannon wanted to be the center of attention... still does.  Sterling seemed to want to be left alone.

Back around 1992-93 I lived in an apartment near downtown Green Bay with a couple of guys and one of those guys I lived was friends with Sterling's girlfriend at the time (I think Sterling married her).  My roommate met Sterling briefly through his GF but he said about all he got out of Sterling when he met him was a brief hello.  He said Sterling wasn't unfriendly, just quiet.

My roommate invited them to one of our parties, but they never showed.  I always wished I could have partied with Sterling one time, would have been interesting.
