Huge OT win. Packers were 0-8 in OT during Rodgers tenure, at least one of those was a playoff game. 6 of those losses were on the road.

Rodgers: This team took a big step forward in confidence. Good for our young guys to see it's never over til it's over. Nice comeback.

Rodgers: That's a character win, 100 percent...There's some studs not playing. No excuses. Guys out there are expected to play & play well.

Rodgers: It's a big win for us, especially on a short week. #CINvsGB #GoPackGo

McCarthy on @813Geronimo: No surprise on Geronimo. You could see it coming in preseason. Taking the leap, plays with a lot of confidence.

McCarthy on @AaronRodgers12: He was tremendous today. Had a lot to deal with, lot of adjustments going on. #CINvsGB

McCarthy: Excellent win. We knew this was going to be a tough one. Very good win for us today. #CINvsGB

Stubby is high on Geronimo.

Man, I dunno. I realize the O-Line is down a couple of starters, but Ty Montgomery just doesn't look like an NFL running back. To my eye there is a lack of cut back and/or outside burst of speed and swerve.

I applaud his willingness to accept his reassignment in the offense, but I haven't seen any flash, gash or dash over the first three games.

I see what you did there.

+1 He just seems slow to hit the hole and very little after contact yards. Disappointing.

I hoped that TT would bring in LaGarrette Blount. I watched some of the Giants @ Eagles game today and Blount does some nice things.

Rodgers was O for whatever in games where he had been sacked six or more times. One of the more memorable ones was the 2009 game in GB against Bungles.

First win in how long in a game where the Pack had never led before the final play.

He didn't have a lot of room to run today and was tackled often before he could turn up-field. But he still stinks at blocking back there. Until our tackles return I hope MM puts Rip in there instead on obvious passing downs before Rodgers gets killed.

Yeah, I agree with your assessment. On a couple plays, one in particular, he missed a gaping hole and turned a run of a yard. He's far from an instinctive runner and leaves some plays on the field for us.

At least 3 playoff OT games I can think of. Arizona, Seattle, Arizona

Back from the game. So much for the Frozen Tundra. We were lucky. Were in the shadows much of the game. People in the northeast end were in the sun most of the day. Had to be like a sauna.
Josh Jones is awesome. Geronimo is the real deal. King battled. He's arguably faced the 2 best WR's in the NFL the last 2 weeks and hasn't backed down. Rodgers is one call away from having 3 straight games where he gave the other team a TD. He needs to clean that up. Monty looked indecisive.

there isn't a hole big enough to stick your - finger - in out there.

Monty's problems: - no TOP in the first half, team got down and 'had' to pass, and the O-line bites right now.
Honestly, the Cincy defenders were just sprinting to Rodgers. No one was even thinking run at all, and when the Packers tried, the defenders were disrupting everything. That was a clusterfavre out there.

Rodgers had his eyes on Nelson the whole time - and his head turned. Also, the lack of a deep game (because of the pass rush) allowed the defensive backs to sit on the short patterns.

I was going to post the Packers don't have a vertical game at all after Week 2 but they did get it going a little bit here today. Remember in 2014 when they seemed to hit a deep 50 yd+ TD weekly? What happened there? Is it just that Nelly lost his speed? I expect to see them focused on OL, WR, and DL next year in the draft.

O line can't block it up
