Packers are awesome.

And I am dumbfounded about the communication errors in the secondary. Most of them involved Tramon, and it seems that Tramon has the freedom to change his coverage if he sees something, but there needs to be better communication so that if he does change, a safety picks up his responsibility. Surely Tramon has had the freedom to change his coverage before... in other words its not like we started doing this just today.
Normally both of these are things you can work on. But 8 weeks in, and considering we are talking about tackling and communication between players that have played together for a while... this is not encouraging. It most certainly correctable... but you'd think if it was a minor issue, it would not have shown up with the consistency it has until this part of the season.
But we did win, we are 8-0, and still have yet to play our best team football! Let us enjoy the night!
