Game 10: Dallas @ Green Bay - Sunday, November 13th 3:25 PM CT

[CheezWizHed]

@UpandIn Jenkins continues to miss guys laterally - even at guard.  It was his major whiff on Rodgers' sack-fumble.  He looks great 90% of the times, but his 10% are still whoa-bad.

@GAME05, there are certain teams to always, ALWAYS root against.  The Cowboys are one of them.  The Cowboys with MM even more so.  Not that I hate on MM, but first game back to Lambeau with his team looking great and us looking like hot garbage? Certainly have to root to win. ?

Was I supposed to be rooting for the team to lose for a better draft pick, or rooting for them to win just because? All game I had no idea what I was supposed to be hoping for.

I can't root for them to lose. I can accept they're not going to win it and a top 10 pick will be better long term, but to lose? LOL...to Dallas and McCarthy at home? Or anywhere?

Maybe they beat the Titans at home on Thurs and who knows? They win 6 of 7 and...I don't know, find a way in. I just can't turn on the game and hope they lose them. They really hurt themselves with the tiebreakers and the Eagles are about as ugly a matchup as you can get for us right now, but I also thought they were done in 2010 due to injuries and the NFC isn't good enough to be rooting for high draft picks(even if we'll still probably get one).

Jenkins guy didn't get ANY rush on that play. Even as Rodgers stepped up, he wasn't getting moved. Lawrence came on a stunt and I don't recall if it was Myers or Runyan, but it definitely wasn't Jenkins. I think he gave up a sack, but it wasn't on the strip sack. 

Edit-Here's a link with just the highlights, including the sack. But this is the one Jenkins got beat on(badly). It looked like Wyatt vs Rhyan during family night. Didn't really get beat laterally, the kid from Ole Miss just swats his hands away. Cowboys got **** for taking him in the 2nd round, but...he looked pretty good here.

Anyway, I said he was playing with an edge, not that he was all the way back. I don't know when that'll happen, but it may not be this year...which will make his future contract talks much more interesting.

Final 7 weeks of the season are gonna play a HUGE role. He was likely on pace to get a contract with an AAV in the 17M dollar range, higher if he came back and played OT like he had in the past, but did it for ~12 games after the ACL.

Now he's not even the best OL Jenkins in the division this year(though I'd put money on him coming back and being more valuable than Teven Jenkins the next 4 years). 

Spotrac has a 4/58.8M deal. That seemed low coming into the year. It seems like a reasonable price range now.
