My Take -> Week 14

Greetings, G-Force.

Lambeau Field sounds magical. The fans base appears rowdy. The environment feels magical. These are the days that we will remember.

As I write, I listen to an array of John Lennon’s music on shuffle. It’s a great time of year to have his music in your ears. I sip a Weldwerks Juicy Bits. Pungent. Hoppy. Juicy.

Here are my quick vibes over the last week:

Matt LaFleur continues to impress. His team was ready for the Rams. While they were overmatched in name on the line of scrimmage, they were ready to punch the vaunted Rams DL in the mouth. Repeatedly.

Aaron Rodgers won’t be the MVP, but he’s played like one over the last two games.

Sad to lose Cobb. He played so well. Felt like a 2013 version of Cobb. Your turn, ESB. It appears as though ESB will get a significant increase in snaps. He will be integrated into the slot role. We will see him in motion. He will be out in position to change games.

AJ Dillon. Amazing. Can’t believe how well he’s catching the ball. His vision + power combination has been punishing for the opposition. The robot between Nijman and Dillon is the stuff of Legend.

Davante Adams. If Adams and Rodgers play together in GB for 5 more years, Adams will be in the HOF.

MVS continues to grow on me. He will never be a top shelf player who makes unbelievable plays. But, he’s fast and he’s a threat down the Field.

It consistently stuns me to see how aggressive LaFleur is on 4th down.

Billy Turner has been terrific.

This is a team that knows their roles. They shut their mouth. They play their role. And they have bought into LaFleur’s message.

Rasul Douglas! Dub-V! A tremendous performance! Big ups to Gutekunst for his addition.

Kenny Clark is a Green Bay Packer HOF’er.

Stoked for Stokes! Kid continues to shine!

Rashan Gary!! He keeps getting better and better every week.

Last year, we saw Preston Smith running backwards and retreating into coverage. This year? Not at all. He’s being put in position to win and he’s winning.

Wild Man 70 continues to be the most inconsistent player on the team.

Runyan can play!!

Adrian Amos is having a really great year.

Barnes and Lowry are playing well off of each other in the run game.

If this team can start forcing turnovers like they did against the Rams, look out!

This week - it’s the hated Bears. At Lambeau Field. Under the Lights. In Prime Time. Expect dominance.

The Bears might have found their QB. He’s going to be put on display this weekend. They’ll want to showcase him. He will be put in position to be successful. Offensively, the Bears are healthy. They’re going to be animated to make an impression.

Defensively, the Bears will be without Hicks and Mack. Look for LaFleur to be in all-out attack mode.

Aaron Rodgers knows what’s at stake. He knows that he will be under the magnifying glass after his “I still own you” remarks. The Bears will be hungry to pressure him. They’ll take a cheap shot at some point.

The Packers offense is due for a break out game. Sure, they put up 36 points against the Rams, but most came off of turnovers or after the 4th down stop by the defense which game the Packers the ball on their own side of the Field.

Soon, we will see an explosion. A 45-point game. Sheer dominance. It’ll be a day when Lazard catches the ball. It’ll be a day in which MVS gets over the top. A day in which the Packers benefit from a pass interference call. A day in which Rodgers is in the Zone. Why not this week? It could happen. I’m going to refrain from calling out a 45-17 victory this week, but it wouldn’t stun me.

It’s December football at Lambeau Field. This team will be ready.

Packers 31
Bears 20

THE BEARS STILL SUCK!

Go Pack Go!
