Defense! Defense! Defense!
Shields concussion, Lattimore had an ankle I think.
Cardinals losing and would be tied with Packers for best record in NFC if it holds.
The Pack D won that one without getting a turnover. Pretty damn impressive.
Really gave Aaron some time.

You can see amount of respect Belichick has for Rodgers/McCarthy. Talked to both longer than usual after the game.

Damn. Packers o line has been very good today.
You have to hand it to Bach. he gets beat around the edge once or twice a game but he never quits or gives up and stays glued to the guy. Comes back and plays better as it goes along.
Tough son of a gun mentally. Great find with him, Linsley and Tretter I expect.
Packer bloggers were ReTweeting people bailing on the game after the Pat TD and the subsequent Packer FG.

The #Patriots offense put up 34 points against the #Lions #1 ranked defense. And #Packers fans are still saying the GB D is not good enough.
Barrington/CM3 were the nickel LB. CM3 was the dime LB. I wonder who wore the headset.

McCarthy: The end of the game is what you're looking for as a coach. All 3 phases made key plays down the stretch. #NEvsGB

McCarthy: I thought Aaron (Rodgers) played extremely well. Did a great job extending plays from the pocket & buying WRs extra time. #NEvsGB

McCarthy: Playing against one of the greatest QBs that's played in this generation, it's a big win for us. #NEvsGB

#Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (24-38, 368 yards, 2 TDs) is now at the podium. Watch live: http://pack.rs/248bn #NEvsGB

Rodgers: We moved the ball pretty efficiently all day, just kind of stalled in the red zone. #NEvsGB
Green Bay Packers @packers · 16m 16 minutes ago
Rodgers: They're a matchup defense. They wanted to try to take away Jordy (Nelson), so we tried to get Davante (Adams) involved. #NEvsGB

Rodgers on TD to Nelson before half: It was big. He made a great catch & he's been great in the open field. Athletic play at the goal line.
Green Bay Packers @packers · 12m 12 minutes ago
Rodgers: It's another character win for us. Eddie (Lacy) had another great game, some tough running. You have to run the football. #NEvsGB

Rodgers: Everybody contributed to this win, and that's what we told them in the huddle. #NEvsGB
Rodgers may not be elite because it wasn't a close win or a game winning drive, but he is ahead of Peyton Manning in one category; lifetime record versus Brady.
Rodgers 1-0
Manning 5-11
It's the biggest win for them since the superbowl. Keep the mental edge at Lambeau; beat an elite QB; Defense is not a liability.
Both teams played a good, clean game and the home team held serve by clinching it on the last drive. That's the way it's supposed to look among the best.
Absolutely. And to be fair, the guy doing to research has been adding to it and trying to weed out defense and other influences. Scott Kascmar is legit and he knows its an outlier but finds it interesting, which it certainly is.
Problem is no other media outlet wants to look at context, they just want to argue and find fault. Kinda what we do here. But I trust the guy to do solid work on it. He acknowleged to Wilde on Twitter that it wasn't the whole story on Rodgers play and had multiple causes.
Don't know much about interception guy at 538, but he seems on the level too, though more convinced his finding should result in changes to approach.
