  • Studs and Duds, Pumas.

    Jones

    Krys Barnes was a stud until he had to leave the game with an eye injury. Crosby with another clutch 50+ yard field goal. Adrian Amos with 3 pass breakups and physical play.

    Kevin King had a tough night. He'll get picked on because nobody wants to throw against Alexander, but he needs to be better. Lucas Patrick got beat for 2 sacks, and was dominated by Derrick Brown.

      King got picked on because they could pick on him. It sure seemed like Patrick got beat more than twice by Derrick Brown. I read that was Brown's first two NFL sacks. That doesn't say much for Patrick. Kirksey apparently led the Packers in tackles. All I can say is, that's hard to believe. J.C. Scott had a 45.7 yard average - also hard to believe. He wasn't as bad as other weeks, but he came too damn close to losing the game by getting that last punt blocked.

      Jones was a stud, even more than he usually is. Rodgers by normal QB standards probably met stud specs, but he was a little bit off in accuracy. At least he had his usual good sense not to throw it into coverage. Davante was double covered all game, but he did miss a couple of catchable throws too. Bakhtiari also got beat more times than somebody paid like him should.

      Hopefully got away with sleeping through the past two games due to thinking ahead to the Titans - who weren't exactly worth remembering today.
      What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

        Dude - offensive playcalling after getting big lead

          I don't think he had anything to do with the playcalling. Bit I could be wrong.

            Kevin King is becoming more and more affordable as the season goes on. Who knows, in another few games he might be offering to pay teams to take him.

                I'm on record as in favor of using the #1 pick for a stud Corner. Just the same, though, I think Chandon Sullivan, maybe Josh Jackson, maybe even Hollman would be at least as good as Kevin King. I absolutely hope we do NOT sign him for any significant money. Hell no, we won't miss him.

                BTW, a puma is a mountain lion, not a panther.

                  I don't view Kevin King as anything more than just a guy. Look at how slow he was running that ball back on Saturday. I really doubt there is that big of a drop off to 37.

                    King had five picks last year. Six career. Meh.

                    Decent but replaceable.

                    It will remain a mystery why Ted, who had a penchant for picking white LBs, didn't take TJ Watt.

                    Oh, and a puma is a cougar is a panther is a catamount. All Puma concolor.

                        Not that it matters, but https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C...w=1600&bih=789 - the gist of which is: "The Panther (also commonly known as the Black Panther) is a large member of the Big Cat family, native to Asia, Africa and the Americas. The Panther is not a distinct species itself but is the general name used to refer to any black coloured feline of the Big Cat family, most notably Leopards and Jaguars."

                        and https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C...sclient=psy-ab - which says: "https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Puma_(genus)Pumas are large, secretive cats. They are also commonly known as cougars and mountain lions, and are able to reach larger sizes than some other "big" cat individuals. Despite their large size, they are thought to be more closely related to smaller feline species.

                        I don't see any overlap there between pumas and panthers.

                          That's because you are stupid in addition to being a shitty human being.

                            He's not 100%. At full strength, he's a black puma.

                            I would move on because of availability. Next year seems like a deep draft (unlike the last which was very weak and will make Gute look like genius IF Dillard is what MLF saw).
