[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1006723, member: 7261"] Odd missing a few weeks of this forum. I'm rested from a nice long vacation, but don't have the energy to catch up on all that I missed. Great win against the Bears! Should have beaten the Falcons, the defense handed them that game. How much has the Dillon 3rd down run in the 4th Q been talked about? Just like they seemed to be doing all day, I felt that the refs gave him a terrible spot and the ball was over the first down line. MLF didn't challenge though, not sure why. Observations after 2 weeks: [B]Anders:[/B] Legit kicker with a big leg. All those wringing their hands over him in preseason and practices, are hopefully done worrying. Yeah, he will still miss a FG or XP, but what kicker doesn't? [B]Love: [/B]Still too early to declare him as a SOLID QB, but liking what I see. Once again, I hope all those that hated the pick, are now starting to see a bit of the light at the end of the tunnel they dug themselves deep into. [B]Young WR's and TE's: [/B]I didn't expect Watson to miss the first 2 games, but it is what it is. The rest of the young receivers are showing signs of what the Packers and Love need. [B]OL:[/B] Bahk proved me right again. Should have gotten out from under this guy years ago. Sure, he is a solid LT, when he plays. However, he takes up a huge chunk of the cap and will probably be in street clothes more often than a uniform. Othewise, I would say up until the 4th Q on Sunday, I liked what I saw out of the OL.
