Studs and duds Packers Bengals

[KYPack]

(Posting this so Tank won't post one of his Unicorns and butterflies dumb ass posts)

Studs

Davante Adams (No kiddin' eh?) 11 grabs for 206 yards and a touchdown. Guy may well tack up 2000 yards this season.

Aaron Jones 14 rushes for 103. The big time 57 yarder was a work of art that saved our collective asses

Aaron Rodgers Just because he is one stud puppy every week

Devondre Campbell. With Z Smith on the shelf, this cat is stepping up as the physical and emotional leader on D. 8 tackles, a TFL, Pass deflection and a big pick at the start of OT. Good pickup, Gute. Now sign him to a deal

Duds

There were an abundance of dudlies in this game. I'll do a group dud and Name ST's

Bojorquez the uber punter fell to earth with some shit kicks. He averaged 33.5 on his punts. Included was a 31 yard stink bomb deep in our territory.

Beer money Mason Crosby. OK Rats, have at him he deserves a double dud in a game where he kicked the game winner. I agree with Run, it seemed he was rushing his kicks looking for more height or something. Get it going soldier we need you for the cold weather kicks.

Coverage. Mo Drayton needs to get his and his troops shit together. Bengals return man Brandon Wilson had 120 yards on 4 kicks. Overall lane integrity on our overage units continues to blow goats. Stay in your freaking lanes and makes some tackles.

Need to add Dillon to the studs...he was solid on the ground and also caught 4 passes including a TD.

[Joemailman]

Kenny Clark was a stud. 6 tackles, 2 TFL, pressure that forced Amos INT.

[George Cumby]

Gary. Not flashy numbers, but he was applying consistent pressure, doesn't give up on plays, my impression is teams run away from him.

I loved him catching the ball, he's not a one-trick pony and other teams will have to take that into account. I'm still not sure they are using him correctly.

Also, I forget if it was a throw to Dillon in the flat or a sweep. Second quarter, I think Rodgers saw something at the line, gave a hand signal behind his back to Dillon, Dillon responded and it was a nice gain. Did anyone else catch that?

All of the above to a great extent.

I expect the hate to come raining down when I say this, but as I've said way more than once and this game strongly demonstrated, quality O Line play really doesn't make a helluva lot of difference for the Packers. Rodgers just doesn't need that much pass blocking, and Jones can dart and dodge with minimal run blocking too. Dillon on the other hand, needs a significant hole. By a small margin, yes, he was a stud in that game, but a lot of times, the line didn't open anything, and he couldn't get rolling. Dillon is a decent change of pace, but he is definitely not even close to as good as Jones.

Rodgers was also by a small margin a stud, but he was below his usual standard of magnificence - and I don't mean just the interception. If that cross wind was affecting the kickers, it may have also affected him on some passes.

Adams: stud as always. I'm thinking they were single covering him a lot, as Rodgers hit him so-o-o-o many times.

Stokes was a stud early, and it seemed like they didn't throw his way late.

Overall, I'll call our D Line a dud - also by a small margin. Why in hell they let Lancaster on the field I really don't know. Slayton got a few snaps and did good. Keke got less snaps than the previous week and did ok. Lowery was better than he usually is. But Lancaster absolutely stunk. I think also playing him more resulted in Clark getting more attention and not doing as much as the previous week.

St. Brown - who I have praised a lot - looked lost and shitty in his blocking.

Kevin King - who I have hated on maybe more than anybody - was actually pretty decent/not a dud. I only saw him get beat once. He made those two excellent plays on Higgins, and other than that you hardly saw him, which means he was doing his job like a stud (?) in zone coverage. Ditto that for Chandon Sullivan. I'll give Savage a dud by a small margin - slightly more bad plays than good. I'll give Amos a stud by a small margin too - he made several not very good plays, but the big pick kinda made up for it.

Special teams - and apparently the coach - need to shape up a lot. In addition to the yardage, the mere fact that the Bengal kick returner chose to run it back when he could have just taken it at the 25 a couple of times showed that they really didn't respect our kick coverage. Punts too, and receiving punts there was rotten blocking for Amari Rodgers. Did I actually see Tyler Lancaster in there where Tonyan was the week before on FGs? If so, maybe that's his role hahahaha - there was no close calls on blocks.

After the game I couldn't resist. Sent this tex to one of my closest friends in Wisconsin "Hey, I missed the game. Big win though. Only saw the final play...Looked like Crosby was cash money as usual!!"

I'd be happy if Lancaster has replaced Tonyan on the right side. I love ol' Bobby Ton, but even with the pointers from Mercedes Lewis, Tonyan still seems to struggle on the kick blocking.

I wonder how the defensive line, outside of Clark, was the entire game. Early on I heard they were applying good pressure - even Keke, a couple times - but I did not hear about the end of the game much in terms of the D-line. Is there hope for Keke or is he just a guy? And did Slaton make much of an impact?

Michael Jordan missed lots of 3-point shots. He was sometimes cold for a full half. I think you have to judge kickers by their past 10 games. I guess kickers are interchangeable so they get more heat.

Speaking of interchangeable weapons, when do we get an update on J. K. Scott? He never writes, he never calls.

He did, actually, but it didn't get here. It was delivered short of where it was supposed to go.

I still think it's the design. They overload the blocking on the left side... leaving Tonyan trying to slow down two guys on the right side.

bobblehead, the only reason I don't call you a complete dumbass is because you're right more often than wrong in that unmentionable part of the forum. Cumby doesn't even have that going for him. I guess your friend must be an idiot too. If any of ya'all dumbasses have any disagreement, kindly have the balls to be specific.
