I cant believe no one mentioned Quinn Johnson...Almost every block he made was Epic! I'd keep him over Hall at this point...

Q is a dominating blocker. He'll be our fullback of the future once he gets groomed a couple years more. He will be a beast tho. Imagine him at the goal line, pounding his way past defenders for 6. This team has tremendous talent at every position.. besides maybe punter.

I was impressed with him too, but I still think he's our #3 fullback and therefore is in danger of being cut. He's dropped two of the three balls that have been thrown to him in the preseason. Maybe they will keep three fullbacks again.

TE is another logjam. Havner, Crabtree and Quarless each caught passes last night. Donald Lee didn't catch any, but I'm not sure if he had any opportunities. I think they need to keep at least four of these TEs, and it won't be easy to cut any of them.

Three fullbacks and four tight ends? Sounds crazy, but maybe it could happen.

That was my favorite punt ever. I'm switching to the kid from the Aussie.

You had to clock the hang-time with a calendar. No wonder it got muffed.

I understand the coffin-corner advantges, but I'm really sensing that Masthay looks like a more consistent "boomer-punter".

God, that was beautiful, and it was a Green Bay punter that did it!!!

Unbelievable, lol

The only bad thing about that punt is that it probably would have been a touchback if the returner played it right.

If Cindy can consistently boom 50+ yarders then I am ok with whatever the hell is on her face but that doesn't mean I won't talk about it 🙂

I thought Neal looked VERY good. He definitely solidified himself as the #4 DL ahead of Harrell (or anyone else).

Zombo looks good on the pass rush but was pushed out of position too often on run plays.

Burnett's interception was my favorite play of the game, and he almost had two! But his ability to disguise his coverage from Peyton Manning of all people is a great sign.

Sam Shields and Derrick Martin both have to be on this team before Bush makes it again.

O-line looked very solid throughout the game, starters and subs. Flynn looked like a capable backup.

I don't think Rodgers to Finley is stoppable. They had over/under double coverage on Finley and they couldn't do shit about him getting the ball. Speaking of Rodgers, he was clearly a little off for most of the first quarter and the Packers offense still put up over 200 yards and 21 points in the first half, without Greg Jennings. Scary.

Other players who showed well: Chillar, Raji, Collins (after the first gaff that Manning jumped all over).

Dear lord. I wish I wouldn't have called it a night before the game even began.

I was looking at the highlight reel... Backshoulder catches left and right, absolute domination against most of their DBs, Zombo getting a sack/fumble against Peyton Manning of all people, Morgan Burnett getting an interception against that same Peyton and, as icing on the cake, Francois demolishes someone on a fumble return.

Remind me not to miss pre-season game 3 again.

Anybody have info on Hawk? Did he start? I saw Chillar in there a lot with the ones, then saw Hawk running with the twos in the second half...

I hope MM drills it into these guys' heads that there is still a lot of work to do.

This team in the past, ( 2009 pre season, and the meaningless week 17 game vs Arizona last year) has not dealt with artificial success well.

We saw how flat they came out to start the season last year, and Charles Woodson said they went into the playoff game overconfident, based on their week 17 performance.

I have little doubt that the offense is going to be very productive this year, but I still have concerns about the defense, and obviously the special teams.

This team has been the victim of false bravado at times. I hope they've learned their lesson from last years reality checks.
