And according to advanced metrics we’ve faced 3 (New Orleans, San Fran, Pittsburgh) of the top 6 defenses in the NFL so far, and Cincinnati’s defense is above average also. Chicago is ranked #3.

Steel sharpens steel.

I like it.

Steel hones steel. Stone sharpens steel.

Steel hones steel. Stone sharpens steel.

sandstone begs to differ.

Steel hones steel. Stone sharpens steel.

Neither one stands a chance against Tex's rock stubborn cranium!!!

[smuggler]

Bone dulls steel? Sandstone yields to almost anything like a 2011 a Dom Capers defense.

Neither one stands a chance against Tex's rock stubborn cranium!!!

It's the non-Newtonian fluid inside the cranium which poses the real problem.

According to PFF, Newman gave up 6 pressures yesterday. He contniues to be the weakest link. With Bakhtiari coming back soon, someone has to sit, and it should be Newman. Do Packers move Jenkins to C and Patrick to RG, or move Jenkins to LG and Runyan to RG?

Jenkins to LG and Runyan to RG. Patrick hasn't been horrible at Center, and hopefully we get Myers back fairly soon.

It was spotty, but there was a little bit of decent run blocking yesterday. As always, the pass blocking was mostly poor. I think those "pressure" numbers are actually a lot more than PFF says they are.
