Rodgers' hardly subtle audible call for Lewis and the ensuing TD showed again how excited he gets when a less-involved player gets into the act.

Coach Matt LaFleur’s willingness to expand roles and, perhaps more importantly, listen to his locker room could also serve the team well. Defensive captain Za’Darius Smith revealed that a select group of players met with LaFleur after last week’s blowout loss at the 49ers.

"One thing that he does as coach is that he listens to his players," Smith said. "If he, or we, feel that something isn’t right, we can have a meeting and go talk to him. He works with us. This past week, we had a leadership meeting, so the little things like that with the head coach is big. It seems to be helping us as a team."

It's evident that Rodgers and Davante Adams like involving others.

Sure, the Rodgers-to-Adams combination has proven effective -- they connected on two touchdowns before Lewis’ score in the 31-13 win over the Giants -- but nothing can incite a celebration like seeing a less involved player get into the act. Rodgers went wild after his 1-yard pass to Lewis with 7:05 left in the game.

The Packers (9-3) aren’t without shortcomings, but team chemistry doesn’t look to be one of them. Rodgers’ touchdown numbers (22 through 12 games) could be considered down, but his smile numbers are way up.

"He’s been enjoying it a lot, you can tell," Adams said. "Even in times when we were going through some adversity, you could see him and Coach, him and the rest of the team, myself, we love showing it out there, interacting because it’s so much fun. It’s the ultimate team sport, so when you come together as one and get it done and play well in all phases, it makes it that much fun."



I wish I could have seen Lewis's touchdown live. I would have been screaming for joy. I always thought it was criminal how flagrantly underused he was in Mike McCarthy's system.

The most underappreciated guy on the team. Sticks his nose in there nearly every play, unlike our other pansy-ass TE's. He is true professional.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
