I may have been wrong on Williams. Hard to believe he's doing so well especially given how awful our passing game has been. Tampa is dreadful on D but knowing we can't throw it downfield makes what he's doing incredible.

Would like to see what Williams can accomplish with 12 back in the saddle.

At the very least, it's not another gaping hole going into 2018. We did a nice job finding talent in the middle of the draft. Can't get over what Kamara would've done for us but we have the great Montravius Adams so it's a wash. :)

Curious to see what happens now that Jones went one for the game winner. What's the split?

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Yeah this Williams looks a LOT different than the Williams we saw early in the year. Anyone hear what has changed?... I've heard the rumor he was playing hurt earlier in the year but I haven't seen that confirmed anywhere. Maybe just got more comfortable in the system is also a possibility.

And surprising to some, Josh Jones is among the Packers top 6 in snap count so far this season. So they'd probably be worse without him.

I still think Aaron Jones is even better. I suspect Mays can play too.

But based on his college tape, I think once Mays get comfortable he can make some stuff happen as well, at least if he gets room to get started... in his college tapes it looked like when he had room to get his speed up he could have both speed and power, but if he didn't have room to get his speed up, he had neither speed nor power... but first needs to hold onto the ball.

Also with the way Williams and Jones are playing, Mays might not get another chance this year, until they blow someone out and have some mop up duty (and probably not even then).

This usually means he was thinking too much. Now he's playing faster.

And w/ RBs like Franklin, Jones and Williams, plus the later round/UDFA good RBs on other teams I would not draft a RB before late 4 unless I got at least a full rounds of value, preferably 2.

The way the rookie RB's are running it makes me wonder if our running OL blocking is better than I gave credit for.
