    Inbox: The Packers need the entire group to come up big

    Israel from West Allis, WI So, the Texans' defense ranks very low. Is this more reflective of their defense, or their opponents' offenses? Also, as great as it will be to get Jonesy going, if Houston is vulnerable to the run, would this also be a good opportunity to get AJ Dillon rolling up...

    It's a whole new ballgame for Packers vs. Deshaun Watson

    The other factor is that pass rushers can do practically everything right against Watson, and he can look dead-to-rights with nowhere to go, but somehow the play still won't be over. That's why one of LaFleur's messages this week is "making sure we're playing to the echo of the whistle." "We...

    Peppers, voted a defensive captain in each three of his seasons in Green Bay, is probably the truest example of all. On a few occasions, the future Hall of Fame pass rusher broke from his quiet demeanor to deliver impassioned speeches. Rodgers sees a lot of those same qualities in how Lewis...
