The sports analyst went on to add, “Some of their receivers can take the top off at times, but nobody left matches Nelson’s unique ability to pull safeties to his side of the field and still find a way to get open deep”. The Chiefs scored on the next snap to cut the Packers’ lead to 38-22.

The Packers listed Lacy, Adams and Burnett as questionable Saturday on the injury report for their home game Monday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, but coach Mike McCarthy sounded much more hopeful about Lacy and Adams than he did about Burnett. He credited his adrenaline, and the fact he couldn’t stand watching the game on TV in the training room. He played through the injury against the Seahawks, though he was noticeably less effective than normal. “It’s just something that hurts right now”. Expect rookie Ty Montgomery to have a bigger hand in the offense this week as a result. Burnett missed the season opener in Chicago and the Bears’ Matt Forte rushed for 141 yards. “He had a ball thrown his way, he made a play, he was able to break some tackles”, Cobb said.
“It starts in practice, but then you have to finish it in the games”.
The story of the Packers’ victory was quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who completed 24-of-35 passes for 333 yards and five touchdowns without an interception.

“It’s just making a habit of getting north and south, keeping your feet running”, he said.
