Game balls

I'm one to develop fast first impressions

I have not liked Morency
I think Wynn is a tease
And Jackson doesn't have it yet

But a few swift moves early on had me very curious about Ryan Grant. He does remind me of Dorsey Levins. Very similar running style; hits the holes hard and lunges forward.

Definitely our best RB IMO

I appreciated TT giving up a 6th for Grant and he must have really liked him to give up a pick.

I like Ryan Grant. He might be our answer; if our answer is on this roster he is it IMO

Tight analysis B. As usual.

You don't see every WR coming up with big plays like that. Jennings does it somewhat regularly. Single coverage from Driver helps, but Jennings is just too good to get single coverage like that and teams can't afford to double both and be aggressive in the run game at the same time.

I told you guys by the end of the year the question would be who is #1, not who is #2 (referring to JJ and GJ)

I hardly think there's a doubt who #1 is. I think it's clear what the pecking order is. Driver is very good. Jennings is good. Jones is good most of the time.

Mr. Monday Night, Brett Favre, passed for 331 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Packers running back Ryan Grant rushed for 104 yards on 22 carries after replacing starter DeShawn Wynn, who left the game in the first quarter with a shoulder injury.

Key stat

The Packers finished with 105 rushing yards, up from their league-low season average of 65.7.

Noteworthy

The Packers have won their last five road games, including the first three this season. ...

The Packers are 6-1 for the first time since 2002, and the second time since 1996, when the team won Super Bowl XXXI.

GO PACK GO !

Another game ball for Ryan. Some great punts there tonight, including one to pin them inside their own 10.

Poor ST punt coverage on one punt especially hurt Ryans numbers.

He did well himself.

PUNTS

(Number-Average)
4 - 52.3

Blocked 0

Net Punting Average 35.8 (We need to improve that)

PACKERS FOREVER !

DD is ALWAYS NUMBER ONE Partial.

Re: Game balls

Nick Barnett also played very well again.

Barnett deserves props. A solid game, and a heady fumble recovery to turn the tide of the game early.

I'd much rather see Wilbon in the booth than Kornheiser.

Do you really want a Bears fan doing commentary?

Nice to visit history about the birth of Ryan Grant as well
