Jordan Love "is" the Green Bay Packers QB, and within a short period of time, they'll be working out a long term deal with him, to stay in GB. I doubt very much if they will wait until he's able to demand more.

Who knows? We may be talking another decade or more of one QB, doing an amazing job. Getting 3 top QBs in a row is unheard of in the NFL.

Truthfully use up the few millions we can spare from this year as part of it. That's if you plan on extending him that is. No sense waiting IF you already know.

Amishmafia and Mrs Amishmafia. So hoarse today after cheering at the tops of our voices. Probably the best game I have ever been to.

Popping sound midway through the 1st qtr. Not sure if you could hear it on TV, but the thousands of Jordan Love haters in attendance, pulling their collective heads out of their butts was a very pleasant sound.

Packer organization. The envy of every franchise. From Mark Murphy top to each player to the ball Boys and water girls, a classy and effective organization.

Chiefs fan in front of me. Spoke to a few more. Everyone of them disappointed, but very polite and good natured.

DUDS
Not a single one comes to mind

Maybe we will start seeing other teams draft a QB 3 years before they need to, but probably not.

With the remaining schedule, they have a great chance to make the playoffs. They are far from being the worst team in the league as some people had predicted.
I really didn't think they would gel this quickly, I thought we'd have to give them the season. Sometimes youth on a team can be an advantage. And you have to admit the defense has been a big part of the success that they've had.

As for Love, I've gone from wondering if he's going to be any good to having confidence in him when we have the ball.

It's all about management and scouting staff that is able to identify that "special guy" and have the coaches in house to develop that "special guy". Not a single iota of luck. It's all about preparation meeting opportunity.

I guess I just don't still understand why the shock some Packer fans have had...

This team despite being INSANELY inexperienced and YOUNG had still to this day really never let a game out of their grasps or within reach distance more than once arguably (the first Detroit game).

Their defense has consistently this year done a good job of keeping opponents off the score board...albeit not playing up to where they should be.

The offense from day 1 illustrated in a dozen or more plays a game, even in CLUTCH moments, that it has the potential to be special when mature.

To me the "shock" is just another sign of how Packer fans have grown way too lazy in being able to decipher a game beyond a win or a loss...okay that's unfair to Packer fans, its more than just our fanbase, but when you have a fanbase that literally have been winning for two plus decades....folks became lazy football observers IMO.

Petals a huge stud this week. That gameplan was very well put together.

If I had to give a dud, it would be using a 3 man rush against Mahomes.

The crazy thing is that three man rush had awesome push up the middle...problem with a three man rush it is so easy to slide outside and remain clean.

Studs-
Nixon, it's getting to be a habit but he comes to play every week.
Watson, he's a huge weapon. Other than Love, he's the player the Packers are least able to lose.
Love- best game yet.
Duds- Walker and Campbell. Didn't get it done. Poor coverage, tackling and playing way too far from the LOS.

That 15 yards, despite hitting Mahomes in bounds, was a game breaker, no matter what they say. It gave them the ball in Packer territory, stopped the clock, and gave them the opportunity of building momentum. Even on the pass play where interference could have been called against Green Bay, if you watch, the KC left tackle clearly put his hand inside the Packer's outside rush man's grill, directly in front of an official who saw it. That should definitely have been called a penalty, so at best, the Chiefs would have had offsetting penalties, so they would have to repeat the down.

What was worse is that the final play, in the end zone, for them to be nit picking for a call against GB, considering that it was a free for all of pushing and shoving, as it always is, in a jump ball like that was. For every defensive infraction, there would be an offensive one as well. His bias during the last quarter was not acceptable, in any way.
100 percent agree.

My stud is the defensive backfield. While it frustrating to see Travis Kelsey wide open a few times, but then again, that's why he is an elite player. Most of the sacks tonight were coverage sacks. Our backup/young CBs kept the big plays from happening and the safeties did their jobs.

I have ZERO problems with Owens hitting Mahomes on the sideline. Mahomes was going for the first down and was still in bounds.

Also...you tell me Kelce doesn't even get five receptions on the night - I'm ecstatic

and we’re just so inexperienced across the board. Not in a bad way I mean that we have lots of growth potential.
Had someone told us that in Week 13 we would play but would be missing Rasul, Ja’ and Stokes and we’d play KC with Pat and beat them?
I would’ve never believed that or taken that bet.
They kept themselves a score ahead for most of the game too. The Packers scored 27 pts on 7 drives! That is impressive!

I’m still gonna have to give a dud to Barry’s defense.

Yes there were good moments and holding a team like the chiefs to 19 is generally pretty good. But the chiefs offense has been wildly inconsistent this year, it’s not the same as holding the free-scoring Mahomes-Kelce-Hill chiefs offense in check. And of course penalties are part of the game and some were certainly correctly called, but there were a handful of drives that IMO were stopped more as a result of the chiefs shooting themselves in the foot than our defense playing brilliantly.

Maybe “dud” is harsh but on the whole I still am very firmly convinced that this defense is still underperforming relative to the talent at its disposal.

First of all I have to consider myself a Dud. For beginning to think ML might not be the coach I hoped he would be. Wrong! And kind of a Dud for not liking Barry and thinking he wasn't a good DC. I'm still not crazy about him. But I will cut him some slack.

Studs: Love, Watson, Heath, Doubs, Dillon, ML and most of the defense. Hard to find a dud in there. Even Anderson made all his kicks if I'm not mistaken.

Duds: Again I'm so surprised how well they played that it's hard to find a dud. A couple of dropped passes and a couple if miscues but otherwise they all played great.

The stud that most will miss is the officials swallowing their whistles after ******** up the not late hit on saint Patrick
Course they really messed up when they penalized someone for NOT roughing the passer...on the sidelines.

I felt the same way. They were a few better defensive players away from another superbowl appearance. I am thrilled with how it turned out though.
I am happy our gm has an eye to the future..and didn't draft a guy and throw him in the fire right away. The rest of the teams in our division have no clue how to draft and develop young qbs!
A stud I forgot. Clements for working Jordan and helping him develop into a Good QB. Not ready to call him great, yet.
