Packers quarterback Rodgers picks apart Chiefs in 38-28 win
The first was a three-yard connection to give Green Bay an early 14-0 lead.
Boo. The Chiefs move the ball well and score, and they broke their streak of having no touchdown passes to a wide receiver since approximately the bronze age.
“I think Aaron is the best in the business at that, and you’ve got to applaud Corey, too”, Barclay said.
“The key starts up front”, Rodgers said after the Chiefs game. They can win the AL East tonight with a win Those two teams are fighting for homefield advantage in the AL.
“You have to grade the tape the same all the way through, regardless of the scoreboard. So, that’s something we talked about-making them sprint off the field if they want to sub”, Rodgers said.
The Chiefs answered late in the third quarter when Smith hit WR Jeremy Maclin for his first touchdown of the season to make it 31-14. Reid said Smith probably will start on Sunday.
However, the Chiefs (1-2) repeatedly shot themselves in the foot.
The Packers was first and end goal.
With two minutes and 18 seconds left in the first quarter, Rodgers found Randall Cobb for the first-of-three times on Monday night.
Rodgers was 24-for-35 for 333 yards and-as always at Lambeau-no interceptions, tossing three touchdowns to Randall Cobb in a game that was not as close as the score would indicate. His passer rating is 135.4. Packers coach Mike McCarthy deserves a lot of credit for how he prepared his team in the offseason. I need to bring it every week.
“Like to keep it going like this throughout the season”, added Rodgers. The Packers had 104 yards on the ground in the first half alone. In the fourth quarter, Charles scored on a 4-yard run and Smith and tight end Travis Kelce connected on a 2-point play.
“We have great veteran leadership”. Jones had seven catches for 139 yards, and Cobb had seven receptions for 91 yards. “His ability to see not only what’s going on their sideline, watching their communication, their non-verbal communication and their verbal communication, picking up tendencies throughout the game, and being able to apply it to future plays and future situations is very unique”.
This game also showed the key role running back Eddie Lacy plays because he makes defenses honor the run game. He didn’t throw an interception for an National Football League record 19th consecutive game at home.
Rodgers was 4-of-4 for 53 yards and two touchdowns on screen passes. “That’s why I’m not into talking about it. More into getting on with Cincinnati and get rolling”.
Wrapping up the Week 3 NFL action on “Monday Night Football“, we had a solid matchup between the Packers and the Chiefs. Don’t you just hate the prevent defense?
Green Bay linebacker Clay Matthews was a massive force all over the field, finishing with six tackles but affecting many more plays. “Yeah, it was (nice)”.
Smith took part in training camp and preseason games, and Reid said Tuesday that he’s in good enough shape to practice fully on Wednesday.
