My favorite Walden play is the hestitation sack he had.. he stayed home until the guard / center set and started looking to help.. at that point... his burst was impressive as he blew through the gap and Cutler panicked because he seen nothing but 93 bearing down on him.

That was awesome.

Another guy that played maybe his best game as a Packer.. AJ Hawk. To me.. he was almost flawless today.. and made play after play and in the huddle looked OSU like intense. Loved it.. and any that know me.. know I think AJ should be playing like that weekly his entire career. Complete game by the former Buckeye.

Bishop as well played very very well.. missed two should be tackles.. but other than that.. money.

His speed should help him contain Vick though. Is Vick expected to play?

Yes, Vick is expected to play. The past week he was held out of practice to watch film on Capers blitzes and scheme to prepare in case they played the Packers. I believe Kolb got the start today against the Cowboys.

As for Walden's speed, I fail to see how it can help contain Vick. To provide contain you have to set the edge, which requires strength. Zombo sets the edge pretty good.

Either way, we seem to have some passable options at OLB opposite Claymaker. Which is a pleasant surprise considering the injuries we've sustained their.

I agree with you about Hawk. But I think he plays like this just about every week. He is very consistent.

lol he wasn't held out of practice so he could watch film on our defense ... he was HURT, bum [strike]ankle [/strike] Quadricep I believe and they used that time for him to review the 3 - 4 defense.

Great reference to that play.

On the replay, you can see that when the guard looked away from Walden, that is when Walden started to rush forward. He simply beat the C with quickness, but the patience he showed to beat the G was mighty impressive.

Totally agree with you, that was an awesome play.

Ah, my bad. Thanks for the clarification.

Someone mentioned that the Eagles will have played 3 games in like 12 days by the time game starts next week.

That is a pretty heavy toll on a team.

Even more impressive for Walden is that he played like that even though Cullen Jenkins was not on the field. If we get Jenkins back next week, the front seven will be even stronger.

I was wrong, it was a quadricep, not ankle, oops.

Considering who we'll be facing in the Playoffs, I'm more than happy having a guy who is slightly weak against the run but gets sacks. We'll be going up against Vick, Cutler, Brees, or Matt Ryan. In the SB, it will most likely be Tom Brady.

When Walden got his first sack, all I could think of is "who's this Walden guy?" Then he gets another sack. He finished with 8 solo tackles, 1 assist, and 2 sacks. Heck of a game.
