It was vintage Lacy, if the word vintage can be used to describe a second-year running back. Even though Lacy's best runs of the first month of the season had come on shotgun plays, all of his action against the Vikings came with Rodgers lined up under center. The fact that he gained 91 of his yards and scored one of his touchdowns on runs between the tackles, according to ESPN Stats & Information research, proved beneficial for an offense that had relied so heavily on receiver Jordy Nelson coming in.
The combination of Lacy and James Starks (46 yards on 12 carries) helped the Packers rush for a season-high 156 yards that nearly doubled their previous best of 80 yards (in both Weeks 1 and 2).
