Dud...as I've said all along... Davante Adams. This is supposed to be his breakout year, and all he has done is make us wish we had Jordy and that draft pick back.
Totally agree about
Davante Adams being a DUD. For all the hype he's garnered, he's totally failed. Rodgers threw to him like 20 passes today! That should be at least a 150-yard day. yes it's true that #24 of the Lions held him all day long because the ref refused to call a penalty early, stopping it. But Adams has to run by people. When he did, Rodgers hit him deep down the left sideline and he dropped it. Next play, Abbrederris caugth his on the right sideline.
I'm tired of Adams. There are a lot of better WRs from his draft class last year. Being young like that, no longer an excuse.
But
Mason Crosby is a stinky dud because he easily has the leg for a 52-yard FG. Has this guy ever made a game-winning/losing kick final play? I remember him missing 3 of them (at Minny one year in a dome, at Washington in 2010).
Most good teams in the NFL steal a game or two every year, winning ugly. We had a chance last week in Carolina, but Rodgers choked last play. Today, Crosby choked.
But by far, my biggest DUD today was #29
Casey Hayward. Both as a defensive player and also special teams. He was the biggest wimpy culprit on the 2nd half opening kick return. I always wondered why this non-physical guy was on kick coverage. Now I really wonder.
And on the Lions final drive that resulted in the TD, the Packers defense did great and opened the drive stuffing Detroit and forcing a 3rd & 9. Chance for a 3 & out with us having all the momentum, down only 2 points and lotta time left.
You all ***** when Capers rushes only 3 guys, so he sent 5 or 6, one being Hayward. Stafford panicked in the pocket as his guys weren't open, and he almost gave up the sack just freezing up..... then when he realized he was still alive, he flushed out to his left and delivered the key pass for the first down.
HAYWARD had a free shot into Stafford but he just jumped up to try and hit the ball or something and face-planted his soft butt onto the turf, allowing Stafford out.
Then to end the drive on 3rd & goal, of course it was Hayward who allowed the touchdown pass to seemingly beat us.
In a game that the refs allowed DB's to mug, ******, assault WRs, for Hayward to give the guy that much cushion for the easy touchdown was inexcusable. I want him deactivated in favor of LaDarius Gunter. In a game like today, physical with no whistles for that stuff, Gunter would have been Revis-like.
