[QUOTE="paco, post: 249294, member: 1741"] forgive me, I haven't read the previous posts yet, so I'm sure I'll mirror many thoughts. But here are some of the notes I made on the game.... Positives *Rodgers coming through at the end of the game. He was knocked around and shook up all game long, but came through when he really needed to. *Overall Defense. They blitzed from everywhere, gang tackled, batted down balls and got the turnovers. How can you ask for anything more? *Penalties. Only 6 the whole game and 1 illegal contact and 1 holding call were bogus. This is a great imrovment over the last few years. *Punting game. Kapinos did a decent job. Didn't do anything to make you groan. Negatives *RT play. Barbre was inconsistant, but was going against a quality DE. He did make some nice plays, but he needs to protect the QB better. *Slow offense. The offense never really found a rhythm, especially the run game early. I'll chalk it up to jitters and the pressure for the first game, and a solid defensive day by the Bears. *Dropped passes. Several would have been tough catches based on the throw, but the WR's need to pull in a few more. My concern spots RT - If Barbre doesn't imrove, Giacomini needs to be ready, or they need to give Lang some reps in practice to get him ready. Safety - Collins and Bigby both got banged up. Rouse and Martin can't handle it alone. I'd like to see an upgrade here. Hopefully both are ok. But this is our weakest spot on the defense. Players worth mentioning Chillar, Jolly, and Jenkins on defense. Wow these guys looked good. Play of the game was easily Jolly's INT. Most WR's couldn't bring in that point blank rocket with 1 hand, but less a defensive lineman. Rodgers and Jennings on offense. Rodgers came through when he was needed and Jennings was there at a few crucial times. They might end up being one of the best duos in the NFL before long. Honerable mention Jordy Nelson as PR/KR. He did an admirable job returning kicks. Especially on the opener. Not a shifty, make you miss guy. But he runs straight ahead and gives good 2nd effort. Too many returns lose yards trying to make big things happen. Just too bad he dropped his only 2 passes. Jeremy Kapinos. Just for making us not even talk about the punting problems during the game. I'll take a 45 yd/punt average any day. Early prediction on the Bengals... Raji could be back. Offense will look to put up big numbers. Defense is jacked up. Packers 38 Bengals 17 [/QUOTE]
