I agree. Really a best case scenario is holding Houston both times they started at the GB11. Most reasonable would be 2 FG’s were credited to our Offense AT MINIMUM. So I have our D giving up 15 points total. Keep in mind that’s against s Houston Offense averaging 24 points per game so far.
Correct. The D gave up rushing yards but overall held Houston to under 200 yards. Shut down their passing game. And forced plenty of punts in the 2nd half. And they kept Houston out of the end zone on that last drive.
Yeah the offense gifted the Texans 16 points. And considering they started at the GB 11 after Love's first INT, and only allowed 3 pts, well that's damn good. The D won the game yesterday. It won't always be that way, hopefully, but it sure looks like they are playing as a complete unit. Great to see.
It was a command performance by the D. I had to look twice at the game line to make sure Stroud's 86 passing yards was accurate. It was.
Even on that last drive a couple of great catches kept it going for Stroud.
Yeah I mean the announcers seemed more focused on Mixon's very good game rather than the horrible stats Stroud was putting up, and the role of GB's D. No matter. Winning a game with three TOs and 16 pts off those TOs is a challenge. The D kept them in it long enough to prevail.
At halftime out on the ramp one of the focused fans said to me that Love needs to be a little more like Rodgers and a little less like Favre.
I understand that. I think it will be best though if Love just focuses on being Love. I think he self corrects better than Favre and Rodgers (for one thing, he takes responsibility, something Rodgers still won't do). He'll learn not to float any balls around the 50 after this week. He is already very good, he'll learn from his mistakes. But he is willing to take risks, so there will be more INTs than we were used to with Rodgers. I'm ok with that. I'd like to see him win two SBs. Is that too much to ask?
