Well in Raji's defense he commands double teams. He doesn't just "get" them -- he "commands" them. He's a lot more disruptive when they bring some kind of pressure that frees him up for a one-on-one.

Ponder is in as you all know. Not sure on the injury front for your guys' team, but the Vikings may be out 4 starters. 3 of which won't be noticed much, IMO. The only one I'm remotely concerned about as a Viking fans is Winfield. I don't want him on the field if he isn't healthy, though. It's a neck injury so its something to take caution on.

No one here has the nuts to take a sig/avatar bet with me, so I'll make a reserved projection that the Packers will win, but not by as much and ZS wants them to. I think it'll be a scrappy game.

I don’t know that you’re wrong, but I am always wary of fans evaluating effort. I just don’t see how a fan watching on television can say with much confidence, "that guy isn’t showing much effort”. Maybe where a wide receiver is concerned it’s a little easier to make that call, but on the D line it seems tougher.

Offenses have been bringing in max protect schemes and running the football with cutesy misdirections plays, then taking what they can get downfield in plays that take forever to develop. Dom has been playing bend but don’t break style defense until the redzone, on one hand, or the Packers have a healthy lead, on the other. I don’t think you’re going to see Raji (and the rest of the D line) streaking toward the QB while Dom is rushing three guys against an entire offensive line, two tight ends and a fullback. On the other hand, I think it was during the Atlanta game that they showed a replay of Raji blocking up two gaps singlehandedly, waiting for the running back to make his cut, and stopping the play for no gain. That takes effort. It’s not QB sack effort but it gets the job done, within the scheme, when a team is trying to trudge down the field 4 yards at a time.

I believe rotation is a big part of dline succes, and i simply dont agree with our coaches that plays Raji every snap, it doesnt put him in a situation to put out an full effort every snap and still be effective through a full game, let alone a full season.

Shields has been saying he feels good but its a matter of getting cleared. We shall see. I am hoping Shields can play but if there are any signs of the concussion still then I would hope he is smart enough to sit and take this week and the bye week to get better.

Friday practice:
@RobDemovsky: not practicing for the Packers: Newhouse, Shields, Matthews, Zombo, Sitton, Dominguez, Clifton, Pickett and Neal.

I get the feeling we'll be passing a whole heck of a lot tomorrow.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Won't be passing a lot if they can't stop Jared Allen.

Matt Ryan is down with an ugly looking ankle injury. They have a 14 point lead over the Lions in the third, but damn. Loins could be coming back.
It's SOOOO nice to be such a dominant team. We can look at these games and just assume we're gonna win. Because we're clearly the better team. That is a great feeling. THANKS TED THOMPSON!
If the Falcons can run the clock out and save this game, we'll have a two game lead in the division.
