I really don't think we know who is good and who is bad yet. Wait until after week 3.

Agree but Pitt was generally seen as a descending team with a washed up QB, then won a nice game in Buffalo. I don't think them in GB is a game we should lose...unless we're actually as bad as we looked.

 

SF has a good argument for being a strong team. Losing is acceptable. Another 30-pt drubbing isn't.

Tonight's game is all about the defense for me. The Lions offense doesn't provide a huge threat so most positive outcomes from the D will have to be taken lightly, but still hoping to see less breakdowns in coverage, more guys flying around the ball, and most importantly the ability to get off the field on 3rd downs - especially 3rd and longs.

 

With a new coordinator and lack of pre-season reps, I fully expect it to take until mid-season for the unit to really come together, but tonight needs to be the start of progress being made. Watching the game last night I'm not sure how we would slow down either of those offenses. Fortunately & unfortunately, we're going to get to see it a few weeks down the road.

ESB has been elevated from the PS to the active roster for tonight’s game, per Rob Demovsky. That seems odd, considering they seem healthy at WR.

 

I think Deguara is out with a concussion and ESB's brother is on the Lions. It could be just be for the gesture of suiting up for a nice moment + possibly contributing on ST.

That’s neat if they’re doing him a solid so the family can watch both of them play. I think EQ is still worthy of a roster spot, when healthy.

ESB suits up for week 2, so he goes on the IR for week 3 then? /half blue - mostly :(

I think the Packers right the ship, but few outcomes would surprise me. I’d love to see AJ Dillon work up a good lather tonight. I wish the Packers would have re-signed Williams as the RB2 and taken a comp pick for Jones (you’re welcome if Jones goes off for 200 tonight :) ).

Paying King any amount of money at all, and justifiying it by saying he's a "placeholder" for Stokes is a brutal, awful misallocation of resources for a team that was already tight under the cap.

I would rather see the rookie get burned like that instead just for the experience he can learn from.

To be fair, King seems to be regressing. There was a time when his biggest problem was not being able to stay on the field. Now, he’s getting toasted left and right.
