- Running game, Patrick, Dillon
Pos
+ Spreading the ball around in the passing game. Reports of Bob’s demise were exaggerated.
+ 2nd half pass rush. Keke, Lowry and Gary.
+ 4th down stops on D.
+ Punting game. This dude is the best we’ve had in GB in a long time.
+ CBs played pretty well besides the TD on Stokes. If he gets his head around sooner that’s a pick though
Negatives
- Interior oline had a rough game. Hopefully Bahk is back for AZ and we can get Jenkins back inside.
- No punts from Washington. They moved the ball all day without a single punt.
-I started Dillon on my fantasy team b/c I had N Harris, J Robinson, C Lamb, and J Jefferson on bye. That was not a smart decision.
+ Gary’s forced fumble, Sullivan’s INT, Keke’s sacks and pressures
+ Adams’ great sidelines catch. Tonyan and Lazard both played really well today.
+ Punter continues to impress. Not an exaggeration when I say he may be one of the top 2 or 3 Punters I can ever remember playing for the Pack.
- Offensive Line had worst game since the Saints game.
- Pass rush was way too inconsistent
- Savage really has some brick hands. The INT he missed was a tough catch so I’ll excuse him for that, but the attempted fumble recovery was pathetic. No way in hell should he have let Washington recover that, but somehow he let a sure fire turnover for the Pack squirt away.

Hated the way the way the WFT moved the ball at will but the bottom line: only ten points.
Huge upgrade at punter.
Nice to see Big Bob and Lazard contribute.

Running game and OL play. Dillon needs to redeem himself after a horrible game with two fumbles.
Savage has to recover that fumble.
- To commemorate the dedication of the Bart Starr Memorial Bridge, The OL did it's best impression in the first half of the 1960's "Look Out!" blocks! 
+ The Ghost of Brent Favor returned to Lambeau in the form of Taylor Heinicke. complete with fumbles, picks, downfield blocking and the WTF just happened sideline looks. Only thing missing were dick pics and rocket balls
+ A NFC win
I was worried about a let down against a team that is not as good as GB but MLF had them ready to play
The defense. Yes I actually said that. WFT moved the ball pretty well but when they needed to make a play they did it. Even with all the injuries on that side of the ball they are somehow holding their own
- interior of the OL had a bad day. In fairness though the strongest part of the WFT might be their DL

ARod recently said this team reminded him of the 2010 team, and I agree with him in the context of when so many injuries occur, and it goes beyond "next man up" to "FIDO".

I'm afraid this team is closer to the 2016 team that miraculously made it to the NFCCG, only to have the DBs exposed for who they really were all along.
That team, and this one, defensively, are just good enough to compete against the weaker offenses, but I shudder to think what the Bradys and Staffords of the league could do to them.

Although these 2 things didn’t happen we all know they should have. All TH has to do was run the ball into the end zone…6 points. All #17 had to do was make an easy catch of a ball that hit his hands while in the end zone…6 points.
Yes the D has looked better, still a long way to go tho.
+++Our defensive front came alive! Especially Gary and Lowry! Campbell needs to be extended; Allen Lazard! Davante! Sullivan's INT and then giving that INT ball to his father, is pure Packer People! Tonyan played well.
---Dillon. Lack of run production, overall. Officials taking forever to make a call. Our LS allowing a WFT player to run through the A Gap, and block MC's FG attempt, as our LS watched the havoc unfold between his legs, post snap.

So much of it is individual match ups. Dean Lowry has looked great the last three weeks vs. back up guards, but how will he fare vs TB's starting RG? Same thing with our edge rushers. Most times when we say "boy, so and so is playing better!" it is really more about who he is matched against. Yes, with certain players we know they are typically going to win their match up no matter who it is against (Clark, Adams, Bak) but it is the others who really decide the game.
Speaking of match-ups, that 2016 team had LaDarius Gunter covering Julio Jones. Nothing like that mismatch with the current secondary.

Nothing like scheming something where a guy who runs a 4.69 40 is matched up against a future HOF WR who runs a 4.39.
Not a +- but this was spotted at the game yesterday by a friend of a friend.
Snuck the name by the merchant, apparently.

And mom
I got my buddy a Cleveland jersey for his Bday. Name on the back is "STEAMER" with the number 2.
My wife celebrates every Oct 4th.
Another positive for me was the uniforms. Wouldn't mind seeing them used several times each season.
Very cool uniforms. And a huge positive was Gary. He's really played well these last 4 weeks after a pretty slow start. I wonder if he had trouble adjusting to being the #1 outside pass rusher on the field and the double teams and scheming that go with it.
Both uni's were pretty cool to watch together in that game. Still say they should wear the gold socks with green stripes.
The Cutler jersey 6 that said “Pick” is still my favorite.
ThanksTed has nothing on that one

Especially interesting: the praise for Billy Turner at RT. I forgot that Chase Young was even in the game.
Funny, I thought turner had one of his worse games of the year.

He has two penalties and allowed a sack but considering who he was up against I’ll take it.
