The Shutout, the Running Game, and the Injuries

eh don't. Defense showed something today against a unit that had their way. Robinson coming back and making an immediate impact, turnovers, Lamar showing explosion on his runs helping to nullify how bad the O-line is, better Lamar mechanics, Henry and Keaton coming alive, there is plenty here.

AFC might be wide open and the Ravens could be getting right
Ah you poor bastard…
 
Pats our last home game! We really need this win! Beat pats, lose to packers and beat steelers for playoff contention
 
Excellent defensive performance against a potent offense. Both Jones’ had a huge game and getting Tavius back was an obvious boost. Losing Teddye is a big blow to a squad that is already dealing with some key losses, hopefully they can absorb the loss and keep the momentum going.

O line had a decent game and we finally found some success running the ball which is encouraging, even if it was against the league’s worst D. The TD pass from Lamar to Zay was a thing of beauty, need to see more of that. Other improvements there in the passing game, but the dropped passes, over throws, etc. are still a concern. We’re playing much better defenses in the coming weeks and will need to tighten things up and score more points! Can’t expect to completely shut down NE and GB.
 
If there was ever a year to win the SB it was this trash ass year. There's seriously no team that even looks good compared to teams of the past

Rams would be top 5 any year, Texans, Broncos & Seahawks have the types of D's we've seen get hot for SB runs before. That's about it.
 
Happy for you guys! I’m feeling extremely depressed today though. This loss hurts

That's the story with the Packers this year and pretty much throughout the Love era so far. You watch them for a half and they look like world beaters. run and errand and get back and somehow find them losing. Or it could be the other way around. Wildly inconsistent within the game.

If they don't run the table it means they weren't going to do anything in the playoffs anyways.

It stings especially losing Parsons

Sorry brother! My Packers fan stepson was devastated yesterday when all the injuries happened. The Packers were snake bit yesterday. They had a good chance to grab the #1 seed. It sucks!
 
It seemed having Keaton in on more snaps yesterday added a major spark to our run game. Between him and Henry breaking off some huge runs in the second half broke the Bengals defense.
 
Looks like an ACL. Non-contact while covering a punt.

Sucks on Teddye (what's with the sci-fi spelling on Ted there?). He was having a phenomenal season. That said, Simpson was playing well this season, really seemed to have turned the corner and is a great physical specimen himself. Buchanan beat him out by playing on a very special level.
