Studs:
Eric Stokes - amazing coverage and range, is getting better every single game.
Campbell - continues to keep gap leaks at a minimum and makes the offense he faces stretch.
Amos - Had one hell of a game, and he was closing on coverage and his timing was great.
P Smith - Was noticeable in the pass rush and got good push.
Gary - absolutely great pressures and a force to be reckoned with and is getting better and better - fingers crossed on his arm/shoulder injury as we NEED his presence.
Savage - He looked quick today and was reacting extremely well.
AJ Dillon - the man is a freight train - the power and versatility was on display as he tears into defenses later in game when they are gassed. He is a very able receiver as well and is a force.
Devante Adams - continues to show leadership and makes plays when called upon.
2nd half Oline - did excellent in opening holes and gaps for runners to feast upon
Joe Barry - has done what appears to be a outstanding job of scheming and is putting all of his players in positions to succeed. What a breath of fresh air.
Duds:
Mason Crosby - has the yips and needs to get back on track.
Deguara - doesn't seem to know his assignments at all times.
Aaron Rodgers - was pressing at times, and didn't seem comfortable and confident like we are used to seeing. Did his best gunslinger imitation and it wiped points off the board.
All in all - one of the best defensive performances in a LONG LONG time!!! I realize that Wilson was not 100 pct as his finger was hampering his normal performance but a shut out is a shut out, and he is one of the best in the business. Barry has this defense believing in each other and it shows - the chemistry on his unit is exactly what this team has needed in a what seems to be 10 plus years. Injuries in this game are going to effect both sides of the ball, but the degree to which is yet to be seen.
