Does the “Packers Unscripted” sponsor graciously replace Wes’s lunch when it turns up missing?
Nicely done.

Mike, I'm sure it wasn't easy doing the blog during the whole game, but you did a GREAT job! This was an awesome way to "see" the game! Thanks!
You’re welcome, and thanks. We’re going to review how it went overall, but we might be giving that a try for the regular season starting next Thursday. Stay tuned.

I know the third-down fog horn at the first preseason game was controversial, but I can say unequivocally that I am a huge fan of what they did with the lights after the Packers scored. What did you think?
It seems to be a new NFL trend for night games. Not sure I’m a big fan, but I’ll live.

Mike, did anyone steal a roster spot with their performance against the Chiefs? If so, who's your guy?
Can’t say I saw that type of emergence. I did like the early impact from rookie Kingsley Keke on defense. He was making the team anyway, but his effort and production were good to see.
Mark from Cedarburg, WI
II, from the game, it looks like Ty Summers and Dexter Williams have made their cases for roster spots on the 53. What do you think?
With both of those guys, I feel like all month I’ve seen a lot of potential and a long way to go. I think they’ll both make it because their futures are highly intriguing.

Vic talked about "jars on the shelf." We haven't had a lot of talk about OL. So who are some jars you see us keeping on the shelf?
It sure appears Alex Light is the backup swing tackle. Undrafted from Richmond a year ago, he was held out of last night’s game and to my knowledge he was healthy. That speaks to how far he’s come in two years.

Insiders, years from now, when people ask, "What made Jaire Alexander a superstar?" I'm sure the answer will be, "He was the complete package." Did you see him running interference for Summers on the TD run? It's not just the reaction to get in the play quickly, it's not just the total effort, it's also the detailed knowledge to interfere with the tackler and not draw a penalty. It was textbook, especially insofar as it put him in position to go after another tackler had there been one.
Ha, nice try. That was actually Will Redmond. Alexander wasn’t suited up.
Kevin from Denver, CO
Is Lazard’s scratch from the last preseason game indicative of a secured roster spot? Or was he not healthy enough to play?
Lazard was in the concussion protocol this week.

Can you clarify the rule regarding players recovering fumbles and advancing the ball? I thought the only player on the fumbling team that can advance the ball beyond the point it was fumbled was the player who fumbled it. Obviously I'm thinking of the Tray Matthews QB hit ruled a fumble, where the ball was nonetheless picked up down the field and advanced for a first down.
That limitation to advancing a fumble only exists in the last two minutes of each half.
