Thanks for the let down green bay 

Packers defense is not bad and Nix had 300 yards and 4 TD's.  He's able to make big plays.

He gets a lot of criticism and I'm not sure why. Yes, he isn't a MVP level QB but he's a more than accomplished starter.

They were very shaky in spots this year but this win will rewrite a lot of that script

Looks like the road to the Super Bowl goes through Denver?

Justin Jefferson ranked 24th best receiver in the NFL by PFF?  dafuq?

Is he as good as Drake Maye?

He doesn’t mesh with McCarthy at all and has 18 yards in two games or something like that. 
 

It’s been the death of my fantasy team!

So how is it the Rams completely mortgaged their future and went all-in to win the Superbowl 4 years ago, yet they seemingly, in minimum time, rebuilt to what on paper is probably the best team in the league now?

What a grand game to be on display in primetime

Top notch utilization on of the draft and free agency in my opinion.

Green Bay is a weird ass team. Super talented and Love can make good plays Good to Great QB, great RB, Oline is good, WRs aren’t great but deep and defense that can be elite but I just don’t trust them it’s like their missing the it factor or that clutch gene when push comes to shove 

[RiotAct]

did they seriously just bring up the Vikings-Bills game from 2022 on the broadcast just now???

[Process]

Wtf, how am I just seeing now that Trevor Lawrence has 6 TDs today.

And yet Green Bay only handed off like 14 times all day. Sure, let them keep teeing off. Go for it.

Two reasons.

1. You were busy when he was doing that. 2. He plays for Jacksonville so nobody cares, even in Jacksonville.

3. It was against the Jets. It almost doesn't count.

Lots of draft picks I believe. Didn’t they clean house with a few trades?

[Roundybout]

Justin Jefferson is never catching a touchdown again

1) The degree of mortgaging was exaggerated.   They gave away some early picks but wisely cut bait on a lot of players they might have wrongly extended and didn't.

2) Their HC is one of the few great one's in the league and he's built an excellent staff.

3) They wisely chose to draft a high volume of players(about 10 per year) for said staff to work with and not worry about whether they could roster them all.  Injuries sort that out.

4) Their QB who seemed to be falling apart at the seams the last couple years has remarkably stayed healthy.  This could easily be #1 to explain THIS season but I think McVay would find a Purdy-esque QB to be competitive with either way.
