    What do you guys think so far about your teams after week 2 and what do you think is to come in week 3 and after?

    Packers showed a lot of improvement in week 2, even though it was against a struggling redskins team. Our passing game was able to do what we expected and our run game did what we didnt expect (which is a good thing). Im not so concerned about Lacys return more so his recovery, personally knowing concussions can be a slippery slope and starks showed he can step up. Our oline is definitely our weak point on offense but they did a great job run blocking. they just need to stay smart and protect rodgers during deep drops. We finally have a defense that can pressure a qb and win the front line battle. We are going to be able to shut down a lot of run games this year and force teams to go to the air. Unfortunately, that is what scares me. Our secondary allows WAY too many catches. Capers needs to break out of his ways and tighten his secondary cushion. Our d-backs are always out of position to break up any passes and are forced to play the man vs the ball.

    I think the bangles will challenge us more than people think. They have a quick hitting pocket qb that knows how to get the ball out of his hands in a hurry and into his play makers hands. Id like to see Matthews stunt into the middle of the box to get to Dolton who will sit down in the pocket vs roll to the outside. Our offense should have no issue moving the ball as long as we can keep the very solid d-line off rodgers in deeper drops.

    k... now ill be done...

    it should also be a good test of our o-lines true run block ability. the bangles have a very good d-line that will really challenge our run game (not like last week).

    If the Bengals quarterback plays like he did last week, they don't stand a chance. The deep ball wins games and championships and the Bengals qb hasn't had a deep since he signed with the Bengals.

    Packers win 31-24. Dalton gets his numbers, but Arod passes for 4 TD's to seal the game.
