Nah. I bet a boys fan at work that Zeke doesn't get 100

There is no point in gloating about our rush D being the best if we don't face a premier rushing team or two. I'm excited to see what they can bring against a legitimate rushing attack

Hopefully less than 100 for Zeke. Also any time you can bottle up AP it says something.

Bottling up Stefon Diggs is what actually needed to happen, sadly.

But yes, keeping AP to next to nothing before he limped off the field was fulfilling

And that guy from Detroit I'd never heard of. Need to get the secondary healthy

Nobody is saying that we've shut down great rushing offenses, but there's definitely been teams that have had soft starts to the season and not been able to hold opponents to less than 2 yards/carry.

Neither was I. I'd just like the stat validated with a true test. The top rushing offense against the top rushing defense is a matchup I'd never thought I'd see in my lifetime as a GB fan. Only other time we've come close is when we were putting up 35-50 points a game and teams abandoned the run to try and keep up

Something is really off about having a great defense, a top 10 rushing offense, and a terrible passing game.

If you would have told me 5 years ago that this is how the team would function, I would have lost it and just ignored the bait attempt. I'm still much more in favor of these issues occurring now than at the middle and end of the season. Whereas the ugly drop monster didn't really rear it's ugly head until after the bye last year.
