But yeah, they have looked good when the other team offense.is missing a few pieces and they have certainly rallied better

I can't help notice we only have excuses when the Packers defense does well. When it suffers losses like Rashan Gary and Eric Stokes Or when the offense goes three and out over and over again. Or the special teams gives up field position, those facts get ridiculed. Quite interesting. 🤔🤔🤔

Mr. Beast said

excellent points as usual, however, as Mr. Cool pointed out we are missing a few pieces as well. Further, we seemed to defeat Dallas when they were healthy.

In addition to the defensive effort, the biggest difference in the game was having a healthy Bakhtiari and Jenkins, which we did not have in the first start v Minn.

Go Packers!!!!

Yeah, Tua was concussed, probably during that game. Yeah, vikes lost a couple olinemen.

We were playing without Gary and Stokes. We haven't had our preferred OL for two years now. QB with a broken thumb. Rookie Playing his 4th different position on the line.

The probability of getting injured in football is 100%. All teams are banged up in week 17.

This defense might be better without Stokes... or at least forcing Douglas to play the slot...

Yeah, we totally miss Gary, but Enagbare is stepping up nicely and they finally seemed to get the DTs going...

But I think the Lions have one of the best run blocking OL, it could get interesting... Packers coaches have said they see the Lions OL like the Eagles, as one of f the best in the NFL.
