The little I did see in the second half seemed to be plays where they kept someone in to help Sherrod. I don't mind having a player in to help out on blocking but if a 1st round pick needs hep something is wrong.

Both plays ended in sacks.

He is still learning.

I guess that's why the kept Kuhn around one more year, he is till the best at protecting Rodgers.

IMO Sherrod played better this week, NFL schedulers didn't do The Packers running game any favors putting them against 2 of the best run defenses in the league to start the season.

Next up The Lions, doesn't get any easier.

Sherrod's getting back up to speed. He'll only get better the more he plays. Dude is tall with long longs. It's gonna take time to get that foot speed/quickness and agility back. He's getting there.

I suspect Green Bay will run the ball better this week, and opening against the Seahawks and Jets only helps their preparation. I think it'll be important for McCarthy (and Rodgers at the line, who makes plenty of checks) not to abandon the run too early. Detroit's weakness is still its secondary -- which is really banged up -- but you can't expose it if you're getting sacked every play.

Need to keep running the ball even if the big gains aren't there. And I'm of the believe we have to get the other backs involved. We were at our best last year when we had a little flash (Starks) to our thunder (Lacy).
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I had a lot of respect for the Jets this year going into this game and that didn't change. They look like a team that is ascending behind an improving and mobile 2nd year quarterback.

I won't go by record. I'll go by what I see. Geno Smith looks like the real deal and that defense is rounding into form very well. They need Decker to stay healthy on offense to stay competitive though. He went out in our game unfortunately for them. The AFC East could actually be fun to watch this year for a change!
