    TBH. They're playing a bit like the 2011 Packers D: giving up a lot of big plays but getting a lot of takeaways. Even the struggling Steelers offense hit some big plays.
    Yes, you give a D five TOs like Pittsburgh did and the odds of a score go way up. There were times in the second half that the Steelers had no trouble going up and down the field.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      Remember when no one could stop Kaepernick?
      We all knew that Kaepernick's running was a limited time offer. I wonder if the Pack over-committed to stopping his running week 1? Seems like SF is not terribly interested in running Kap. Of course, you can't blame the Pack much going on what they knew. A good adjustment in that game would've been to back off the containment of him a bit and see if he started taking off. I don't know what he would've.

      R. Wilson isn't doing much running either. He's got 54 yards in 3 games with 33 of them coming against SF.

        Henry Melton tore his ACL and is out for the year. Tough break for the Bears.

          With all of our walking wounded they'll get no sympathy from me.

            Packers don't seem to be too adept at making mid-game adjustments. They seem to be single-mindedly focused on their game plan.
            One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

              The Broncos are pretty good.

                TOs will kill ya. That is why we are presently 1-2. If we fix that I think we'll be fine.
