I refuse to link to it but ol' Scoops McGinn is back on his hobby horse of slow, banger running backs being essential to Packer cold weather football.
He even used his term of endearment for Edgar Bennett, mudder.

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Except Edgar wasn't a banger. He was slow and not especially quick, yes, but he didn't run people over the way Levens did. In fact, I think we can say without controversy that, of all the Packer running backs who have lacked every single elite RB trait, Bennett was by far the best.
As reliable as he was, Edgar never failed to get tripped up by a ankle or foot grab by the last possible would-be tackler.
Mainly I think Bob is remembering Edgar (I assume he is as I haven't read it but am relying on the use of the mudder description normally deployed for Bennett) having success versus the Bears in Chicago in the elements.

They rip out the turf after the last home game of the year. The put in a new field every year. Taking a stadium tour during the summer is fun because there is nothing in Lambeau Field but grass. No field goal posts, no painted lines, no players benches. Just a large lawn inside a stadium.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
