Story of the night for me was Hawkins stepping up at CB.

In just the first half, Hawkins had a team-high five tackles and three pass break-ups, two of them on fades into the end zone. The coaches wanted to take a good look at the speedy Hawkins this week and after a really lousy practice on Wednesday, he got his act together.

I think he got lucky in the end zone with the QB Kirk Cousins pass to TE Vernon Davis being in the perfect spot for him to knock away after Davis beat him deep... but Davis has done that to a lot of people. Other than that a great night by him

Shields used to bait QBs like that, learned it from Woody. Got an INT doing that against the Cowboys in that Matt Flynn game the year Aaron broke his collarbone.

I was impressed with Hawkins last night.
I think if he continues on that trajectory I think he has a big future for the Green Bay Packers.
The only thing that caused me to be uneasy last night was the horrendous play of Spriggs.
