Nick Perry had three knock-downs. Fackrell is showing signs of improvement but still needs to play better. King had a pick that wasn't negated by a Clay Mathews penalty. I don't remember any PI calls against our defense, but that's because they were running the ball down our throats. The defensive line got manhandled. Clay Mathews whiffed so badly on the Pierre Garcon play that it made me cringe. There were lots of arm tackles and generally uninspired play.
Offensively, MM and AR share equal blame for continuing to avoid running the ball. Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams each averaged about 5 yards per carry. Those ugly series in the middle of the game tended to be when we tried to pass repeatedly. Offensive balance is a major problem.
An ugly win against a bad team of backups. I'm not impressed but happy to get the win. We couldn't compete with the Lions. We needed a Rodgers rabbit trick to beat the lowly 49ers. The Rams and Patriots ought to be excited to play our dysfunctional team.
