More Banjo: Week 6 vs Detroit

[pbmax]

I have no idea how to sum up this game. But I loved Rodgers giving the offense or O line the hang loose sign on the sideline saying its not problem, we are going to win.

You got the sense that he knew exactly how to beat that defense if someone were to run the correct route.

Most disjointed game since the opener and the turnovers and penalties as bad as Eagles.

But its a win and a close contender is back to 500.

Good win, ugly play.

Scantron hyperextended his knee but came back. Allison with possible concussion and chest contusion.

Signing Baylis for this game was a bad move as the return game coughed up the ball and added nothing to the ST effort. They need the CB back.

Liked what we saw of Lazard, but he looks raw as cookie dough.

Det - 20 rush 56 yards

Defense final held up against the run.

Adams/Lazard/ MVS just as a deep decoy on most plays
Lewis/Tonyan
Williams/Jones/Vitale

We might have just enough.... barely

That's why Detroit went deep early. Trying to get as much as they could off going against tendency and knowing the packers can stop the run and bring pressure on 3rd and long (which happens when you can't run). Good strategy, but "The Packers have a defense."

Best Aaron Rodgers game since maybe 2016. Even better than the Bears last year. Few of his teammates ACTIVELY contributed to adjust about losing. Shephard is getting the pink slip.

Cant ignore the ugliness that ensued at the end of the game. Booger set off the hysteria and the country followed suit. Pretty unprofessional but whatever. There was some bad reffing and it appears to be homecooking. It WAS a terrible call, but this is outrage culture at its worst.

Didnt "deserve" it. But a great show of effort, and the Lions failed to take it from start to finish.

Am I the only one who wasn't thrilled when Williams gave up the TD? I understand the reason for it, but something can always go wrong on a place kick.

And no number of Detroit wins against man coverage was going to stop that plan. They did play a little less 3 DL in the second half, but unsure of that was by design or just watching up personnel.

Yes!

Aaron Rodgers played a magnificent game. He’s so steady. Bradyesque

Its probably a very close call. FG from that distance is better than 95%. Detroit has no time left, 23-22

If he scores at 1:36, Lions have little less than 1:30 to get a TD and no TOs. If the chance they score a TD is better than 5%, it was right decision.

Great Rodgers game. Booger was awful. Sounded like he was crying

[pbmax]

I am not being dumb about that last call. Bach got his hand on the facemask for a moment and the Lions defender got his whole hand into Bach, right? Same play?

I find that play less controversial that the earlier defensive holding called hands to the face.

Great job of holding things together when little was going right.

Yep. Carried the team when options started running out. Especially whatever happened to Jones. I would have liked to see a better pass to Shepherd - having to come back to that is why he slipped...
