Last Sunday, the Packers beat the Carolina Panthers in
impressive style 38-17. That makes four wins in a row, and three of them have
been very impressive. It’s the near loss to the Dolphins that has us concerned.
Here are our thoughts about the upcoming game in New Orleans.
How long can this historic stretch of play last for Aaron
Rodgers? In case you didn’t hear, Aaron Rodgers is really, really good. Rodgers
has a touchdown to interception ratio on the season of 18/1 and hasn’t turned
the ball over since week one in Seattle.
That seems like a long time ago now. Rodgers has put himself right into the
back end of the MVP Race with this stretch of play, and we expect it to
continue until we are proven otherwise.
Can Devonte Adams keep rising? Second round rookie wide
receiver Devonte Adams has come on strong over the last few weeks. Adams has given the Packers exactly what we were asking
for, another pass catcher besides Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb to step up and
make plays.
Eddie Lacy, where are you? For as good as Rodgers has been,
the biggest disappointment this season league wide has to be Eddie Lacy. To
this point in the season, Lacy has just one 100 yard rushing performance and
that was at home against Minnesota.
Lacy needs to get going, really soon, as in NOW.
Drew Brees Faces The Packers Secondary
How will this secondary hold up against Drew Brees? At first
look, this appears to favor the Packers. Drew Brees is a risk taker, the
Packers secondary is loaded with ball hawks. However, at a closer look, that
may not be the case. Brees is coming off a bad performance and this Packers
secondary is not exactly 100 percent. Sam Shields may not play and Tramon
Williams will play but isn’t 100%.
At the end of the day, due to the up down performance of the
Packers and everything else with this game, we have no clue how the Packers are
going to perform in this game. This could be a lose game both ways; this could
be a blowout both ways. Final Verdict: Unknown.
