Embrace the spread.

Kirk at 72% snaps this week which highlights the use of 11 personnel.

Ertz first game played 49% of snaps which is impressive from a learning perspective. Obviously there are parts of the offense he isn't familiar with and I expect the role to grow.

James Conner 30% snaps after a bigger bump last week. Probably personnel package related.

Rondale Moore hanging around 50% of snaps is good to see. Nice usage in terms of volume for our #4 WR.

Jordan Hicks...64% of snaps?!?! How was our defense able to function?

Zaven Collins 57%?!?! Thank you for the early Christmas present Vance. I love it.

I also like seeing the rotation of snaps with Fotu, Phillips and Dogbe. All around 45% which is great.

Watt playing 54% of snaps in a game we had largely in hand is good.

Snaps obviously skewed this week due to the matchup and game flow. That said, it is always good to get reps for your young players in low risk situations also great in a short week. Not much to complain about here. On to Green Bay.

Marco played the most snaps and I barely heard anyone call his name. What an amazing pick so far.

Zaven, Rondale, & Ertz all at 50% is nice to see.

Man..... If we are all healthy for Thursday night..... this could be a massive coming out party.

or a massive egg. :sad:

The distribution of snaps on both sides of the ball is going to have a huge benefit down the road.
It seems no matter who goes down for a play, a series or a game ( except at Qb) the next man up doesn’t miss a beat.

So my eyes didn't lie on the Junk Yard Dog yesterday. I hope he introduces himself to Aaron Rodgers a few times on Thursday night.

Jalen Thompson continues to impress.

Josh Jones - I definitely see the potential but he has been abused a few times.

You are wrong my friend.

The Cardinals in front of a national audience lay a huge egg. Kyler throws a pick on the first play and goes on to throw 5 interceptions overall. Aaron Rodgers has his best game ever, throwing for 600 yards and 6 TDs. The Cardinals lose 56-3.

Dogbe has played very well this year. It was strange his first preseason because I thought he looked like one of the best DL on the field and yet he didn't make the roster the past two seasons. I think he's been better than Fotu and Lawrence.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the leaders on this team (JJ, Murray, Dhop, Budda, etc.) will let this team get into a position where they get run off the field Dr.

Sure, we may lose, but what's flying under the radar a little is the player leadership and chemistry of this roster. Look how quickly Ertz bought in. Exhorting the crowd after his first catch yesterday.

Murray and JJ Watt are natural leaders on the field. They raise the morale of the players around them on every snap. Teams with this kind of talent and leadership don't get blown out (in my humble opinion).

Wilson lead the team in solo tackles with 5.

Hes going to be so good. Can't wait to see him develop.

Good stuff as usually Chopper but shouldn't the title be Week 7 ....

Great to see Collins getting a good amount of snaps.

I hope/expect Dogbe to get a 2nd contract with the Cards.

I didn't realize until they showed it yesterday that it was the pick the Cards got from the Texans that let them draft him. The Cards had no business getting a pick back in that deal and the fact the guy they got for it may end up being better than anyone that went the other way is ridiculous.

Wilson has been within a hair of making 3-4 interceptions so far this year. He's going to get there. I think the Cardinals are in a good place with the young DBs they have.

Are there any other top 10 picks that are starters who play special teams (outside of OL/DL)?
Roquan Smith

in terms of other top players
Devin White
Marlon Humphrey

are two more. Lots of LBs and DBs are used on coverage teams.
