  • Who would have thought we would go into Dallas, play without Darrisaw and not give up a sack?  And run the ball to close out the game?
  • That touch pass, back shoulder to Nailor on 4th down was a beautiful throw.  Gives me much hope for JJ and the future of QB room.  Second time he has hit Nailor on that throw in a critical situation.
  • Love the handoff to Ham for a TD.  Great call.  
  • WRs and TEs seem to have gotten over their dropsies now that the QB issues have settled.  Hock had a great catch of a fireball up the seam.  Oliver also caught a rocket on a critical play.
  • Defense played quite well.  Gave up some plays, but to get that 1st 3 and out after the initial tipped INT.  Special teams let down on that fake FG, but the initial stop was huge. 
  • Rodgers impressed me with his willingness to tackle.  Couple of big tackles on the RB.
  • Tackling is still an issue.  Lots of grabbing, drag down rather than wrap up.
  • Having Will the Thrill is a huge relief.  Glad to have a solid kicker.
  • Punting has been a big positive this year as well.  Pinned them deep multiple times.
Interesting. Defense held them to 2-12 on 3rd down. But more importantly

Midway through the second quarter, Greenard sacked Prescott for a 5-yard loss on third down. Brandon Aubrey on the following play pulled a 51-yard field goal attempt wide right, his first of two misses on the evening.

The second miss? That one came on a 59-yard boot after Van Ginkel and Greenard met at the QB and took Prescott down for a 4-yard sack.
