JETS vs PACKERS 6 POINT UNDERDOGS
To a lot of fans this game would be described as an ugly officiated game, boring, unexciting, and a poor performance...you would hear that mostly from the JETS fan crowd....The Jets have been heralded as one of the top teams in the league since after week 2...the March Sanchez led JETS couldn't be stopped with their beastly Running Game...and IN MY OPINION, the JETS were the BEST in the NFL, yes I was drinking the gang-green-koolaid too...it was a toss up around the league that the TOP 3 teams in the NFL, not just the AFC, were STEELERS, RAVENS, & JETS...
So who could argue that through the first 7 weeks of the season? No one could and because of this the AFC was considered the class of the NFL. The NFC the weaker conference, with bad QB play, undisciplined teams, losing winnable games to AFC opponents..........can 1 week change that outlook? maybe, maybe not...I do think that WEEK 8 has been a statement week for the NFC and it represents a heart & don't quit attitude from teams like the SAINTS & our BELOVED PACKERS displayed against the "TOP" teams in the league...good thing the RAVENS were on their bye week....
The game OUTCOME was decided by all 3 phases of the game...OFFENSE, DEFENSE, & SPECIAL TEAMS
Our Offense, or lack there of, was able to move field position, PROTECT THE QB, get a few first downs, get in position for Field Goal Attempts...which would be the difference in the game...we may be criticized for NO offense, but playing a defense that is as heralded as our opponents, Revis declaring himself 100%, best Corner Tandem in the league, the confidence they had, their home field advantage, their pressure schemes,etc...Our OFFENSE performed against potentially the BEST DEFENSE in the League against a team that was HOTTER THEN HOT
Our Defense...our defense needed to force Turnovers against a team that has been exceptional @ ball security...it's a tall order...our defense missing so many key cogs & contributors(Barnett, Burnett, Pickett, Harris, Bigby, Harrell, Neal, Poppinga, Jones...I could be missing 1 or 2) STEPPED up and made those "Turnovers" that we needed to WIN the game...turnovers can decide games...our boys showed up in that department, played to the whistle and showed their extra effort to get the ball! Key situations we needed to get to the QB...we did!...all that equaled to an IMPRESSIVE SHUTOUT....GOTTA GIVE SOME CREDIT TO THE MAN IN THE BOOTH FOR THE PERFORMANCE! DOM CAPERS....WELL DONE!
Our Special Teams...all I gotta say is WOW, I felt very confident that TRAMON would never drop the rock on each Punt Return he had, It was AMAZING to see Masthay punt that within their 20-yard-line time and time again in a WINDY Stadium, not to mention the kick coverage from our players...I thought the Punt Coverage where Pat Lee swallowed Jimmy Leonhard on the 10 had a little TONE setting in it early on...Mason Crosby kicking 3 of his 4 FG's in one of the windiest stadiums in the league was very impressive & can't ask for more.
We Executed in all 3 phases of the game, even offense, and why I say offense? WE DIDN'T TURN THE BALL OVER! We won this game b/c we did actually play a complete game, though the scoreboard may not represent that b/c of throws that were off by inches, but for everyone that really watched we executed and played, in my opinion, the most complete game in the Mike McCarthy Era...and I couldn't be prouder...GO PACK GO!
