Some of the individual players have already been called out but the run defense deserves a shoutout. That's another game allowing less than three yards a carry. Impressive especially considering how thin we are on the defensive line at the moment and the inexperience at linebacker.

Thinking about it and listening to Gary Ellerson on the post game show, I think this game was much better than it seems. Trevor Davis makes that catch on that deep route, and that's the dagger right there. I chalk that up to being a rookie.

This game was a more solid victory than it seems. Defense gutted it out, even with third stringers and rookies.

I was praising the defense all of last year and so far this year. Still extremely concerned with this team's penchant for allowing a single receiver to have a career game most weeks. Overall they're doing well but really need to improve on third and long and cut down on some of those deep completions. We're consistently making opponents' run games a non-factor, but would be nice to see us to control the passing game better.

I was at the game. You could definitely feel the tension in the crowd. The middle sections would hardly make any noise against the Lions when they had the ball on offense. End zones did well though. The Packers need to adjust their promo to say: "Get Loud Lambeau!... Please?"

We dealt with a lot of adversity yesterday, although at first glance it may not have seemed like it. On defense, there were a lot of guys having to move in and out primarily due to injuries. There was some confusion a few times. Josh Hawkins had no help whatsoever when he was beat on the back shoulder. In his other snaps he played well. He'll learn from that play, but there should have been help. Randall fell down on that other touchdown pass. I could feel the air leave Lambeau. Some fans were already asking to cut him. Come on people.

2nd half was all about Lacy. I could have used a couple more carries even and some guys need to learn how to stay in bounds! Without a key holding penalty and a couple drops, that Lions comeback would have been a lot less stressful. Good news is we fielded a very young team yesterday and we were able to get them experience along with a win. This will bode well for the future.

They're never out of any game, but they never really seal the deal either.

Hmm maybe it's semantics but sealing the deal seemed to be exactly what they did...

Or when the punter leaped up in the air and snagged that errant snap?

Zero2Cool (48m) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.
dfosterf (55m) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (1h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (2h) : 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 (3h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (3h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (3h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback
Mucky Tundra (4h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet
dfosterf (5h) : 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 (6h) : 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 (6h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (6h) : 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 (6h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (6h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (6h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (8h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (10h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
Zero2Cool (10h) : what is Schefter saying?
dfosterf (10h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy
dfosterf (10h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
Mucky Tundra (17h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (17h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
Mucky Tundra (17h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
Mucky Tundra (17h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious
dfosterf (22h) : *Orzech*
dfosterf (22h) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension
Zero2Cool (23h) : Packers signed someone for three year deal
Zero2Cool (23h) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know
wpr (23h) : YES!!!!!!
Mucky Tundra (23h) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha
wpr (26-Aug) : He played pretty good.
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks
schroeder84 (26-Aug) : @dfosterf I suspect Elgersma WILL be hard to hide. Raw, but talented
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : pp.com is broken, halt testing, gotta go do work things for a bit

Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It's older technology, resource hog, cannot be upgraded/changed. That's to start.
packerfanoutwest (25-Aug) : Ok, but what is wrong with this site?
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : check out packerpeople.com
