I think the game plan really showed the faith they currently have in their outside corners. Many times, asking them to go 1-on-1 against one of the premier receiver tandems in the league. Having those guys up to the task lets our safeties wreak havoc in the middle of the field. I’ve been a longtime Keisean Nixon believer, and Brandon Cisse certainly looks the part. Do you think they can keep it up? Also, shoutout to Carrington Valentine having his number called and immediately coming in ready to make plays.

I gave a shout out to the secondary in our “Takeaway” video Monday. Nixon is a pitbull out there and you can see how that mentality is rubbing off on Cisse, who also isn’t shy about initiating contact to get a ball carrier down. When it comes to coverage, both guys battle for the ball. What’s more, Valentine again proved his value as the “next man up” on the perimeter with how he played in Cisse’s absence.

What did the Packers do during the offseason that has made our running game go from existing to nonexistent? We didn’t even have this pathetic running game in the ’70s and ’80s. We can’t even get out of the backfield.

The Packers weren’t star-spangled awesome at running the ball last year, either. But now they’ve played six games without their former Pro Bowl running back. To Joe’s earlier point, getting Josh Jacobs back will be a good litmus test for where the Packers are on the ground.

Having lived in the Pacific time zone for nearly 40 years, this East Coast time zone is horrible for primetime games! Simply horrible!

Well, the 3½-hour runtime didn’t help matters, either.

Maybe I am an old curmudgeon but with two taunting penalties I think the entire team should be shown highlights of Barry Sanders as he scores, hands the ball to the refs, and goes back to the bench. If that’s good enough for Barry, it’s MORE than good enough for you. Get over yourself, kid.

That was Jordy Nelson, too. Taunting is a major emphasis across the league right now. Until the NFL pulls back on it, it’d be a prudent move on the Packers’ part (albeit boring).

A lot of woulda, shoulda, couldas in the passing game vs. Dallas, but still plenty of firepower through the air, and a great defensive scheme and execution to get the win. This team could be dangerous if the running game comes around, the silly personal foul and unsportsmanlike penalties cease, and the case of the dropsies is cured. Scrappy, fun team to watch. They seem to be figuring things out.

The Packers are so close right now. They absolutely, positively, must clean up the drops for a myriad of reasons. In my mind, I can’t but think how unstoppable the Packers’ passing game would be right now if it wasn’t for those miscues? Even with all the drops, Green Bay still ranks fifth in passing offense and stands among the league leaders in explosive plays. The big plays are there to be made. The pass catchers just need to do a little more to really break it open.

Very impressed by the plays our offense used. I was happy to see some scrambling by Love, his designed running and QB sneak. That has been my gripe that were not changing up the game plan to meet the current situation. I felt we played really good Sunday night. I was a little disappointed that our scoring fell off in the second half but extremely thankful that our defense kept things in check. So, here’s my question, did we play that well that it made Dallas look bad and can we keep it up?

Love wasn’t perfect, but he was spectacular. There is no position on a football field that can make a team right more than quarterback. This 4-2 start has been fueled by Love’s toughness and playmaking ability.

Watching from the end zone as Evan Williams crept up to the line only to drop back into coverage on the interception of Dak was one of the best plays of the season. He is fast becoming a star in the league.

Everything Spoff said on Monday, but I’ll add this: The Packers signed one of the best safeties in the game when they added Xavier McKinney two years ago, but Williams is the free safety Green Bay has been searching for in the draft for more than a decade. His instincts, anticipation and ball skills are next level.

I just thought of a silver lining to all the drops. Two of the drops in the end zone led to Trey Smack field goals. Without those opportunities, maybe he doesn’t have as many chances, which may have gone a long way to rebuild his confidence. I think Love already has faith in Matthew Golden and Watson, but Smack gaining confidence down the stretch may be huge.

I loved LaFleur electing to kick that 25-yarder in the first quarter. That is a makeable confidence-builder for Smack, who then drilled two more makeable confidence-builders. The kid is gonna be all right. I have no doubt about that. But I also like Green Bay putting Smack in a position to succeed in more favorable conditions.
