Yes, Monty has emerged as a tremendous threat, but to see the passing game go off the way it did I think can be DIRECTLY attributed to his success back there. Don't forget, this team is at its best when it has the ball in Rodgers hands throwing downfield. That style is infinitely more effective when we have a legitimate THREAT of a running attack. No, it won't be 150+ yards every week, but sometimes the capability just increases the strength of other aspects.The passing attack looked as crisp as it has all year on Saturday, and there is no doubt in my mind that the threat of what Monty/Michael could do had a lot to do with it. Not to mention, while this O-line's pass protection has been all-world, the run-blocking has been better than advertised. Between that, Monty learning how to play receiver from the backfield, the emergence of Cook, and Jordy returning to form, this offense is humming. Don't want to get too optimistic, but they look as good collectively as any team on that side of the ball at the moment.</blockquote>
