Santa Clara, Calif. - The Packers defense has been in the top 10 in sacks each of the last three years, so it's not a surprise that they're there again after four games this season.

Putting up the sacks. I need to look up how many snaps he has, but Jayrone is doing so good in the limited time he is in there. Another sack today.

I like 17 sacks from 8 different players. Peppers, Matthews, Perry, Daniels, Elliott, Neal, Joe Thomas, and Raji.

Elliott has been playing around 20% of the defensive snaps and 85% of the special teams snaps.

Did anyone else see the Perry resurgence coming? I was hopeful as I always am, but I kept my expectations very low. The guy has been producing defending not only the run, but the pass as well. Other than injuries, that was the only thing holding him back from starting time before.

Any idea where to get a list for QB hurries/pressures?

But yeah, overall I'm pleasantly surprised. 😎

I think the defensive line has a lot to do with this. The pressure they are managing to get along with guys like Raji and Daniels requiring double teams is opening so much for this front 7.

Our defensive line has been great these past 4 weeks.

I'm not sure, but I think Perry was down in a lineman stance - playing DE on that sack. Putting him there and Peppers or whoever at the other DE spot with a couple of pass rushers at OLB makes a lot of sense and puts some pretty extreme pressure on the QB.

Jayrone Elliot is a future star; Perry is signs of finally being decent; Neal has played better this season; And yes, even Raji looked good last game for pretty much the whole game. As good as they all are doing, though, it is Capers scheming that is most responsible for the bunch of sacks.

But physically, the guy is a freak. He will have plenty of options in free agency.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.
