After struggling offensive performance against Eagles, look for the Packers to light up the scoreboard against lowly Giants
The Green Bay Packers had a chance to remain in first place in the NFC North last week in a confrontation with the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers defense certainly did the job, holding Jalen Hurts and his teammates to one touchdown and 10 points, but the offense was held in check at Lambeau Field as Green Bay dropped a 10-7 decision.
The season moves along and the Packers (5-3-1) will have a chance to get back in the victory column against the struggling New York Giants (2-8). New York fired head coach Brian Daboll earlier this week and the team has been battered with key injuries. After the defeat at the hands of the Eagles, Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley expects the Packers offense to put on a show against the Giants.
He thinks that head coach Matt LaFleur and quarterback Jordan Love will have an opportunity to do a lot of damage against New York. “I’ve got confidence our offense is going to go out — and this is no disrespect to the Giants — and we’re going to score a lot of points,” Hafley said, per Matt Schneidman of
While they did not show it in Week 10 against the Eagles, the Packers still have the weapons to move the ball up and down the field on a consistent basis.
It starts with quarterback Jordan Love, who has completed 197 of 286 passes for 2,247 yards with 13 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. He will try to do quite a bit of damage through the air with wideouts Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden and Christian Watson. All three are on the injury report as Doubs (chest) was a full participant in practice Thursday. Golden (shoulder) and Watson (knee/hamstring) were both limited participants.
Running back Josh Jacobs has rushed for 608 yards and 11 touchdowns through the first nine games of the season.
It’s the last person anyone would expect.
General Hospital keeps throwing suspects at us in the Who Shot Drew mystery. Was it Willow? Michael? Portia? Nina? Jacinda? They all have good reasons to do it. (Most of the audience feels the same.) But there is one person who has the best reason to want Drew gone. And, so far, no one has considered them….
Key Takeaways
You’d think, what with gaslighting Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), taunting Michael (Rory Gibson), harassing Portia (Brook Kerr), and trying to steal Monica’s (Leslie Charleson) house — not to mention swiping Tracy’s (Jane Elliot) luggage (SO mature) — Drew (Cameron Mathison) would have no time to be making his daughter Scout’s (Cosette Abinante) life miserable. And if you ask Drew, it’s not Scout he’s trying to make miserable, it’s her brothers, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and Rocco (Finn Carr). And her grandmother, Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn).
Drew is throwing out restraining orders, right and left, to keep them all away from his little girl. For her own good, of course.
Well, Scout isn’t appreciating his efforts. She hasn’t said much about it to Drew. Probably because the poor girl has already lost her mother, Sam (Kelly Monaco).
Drew has isolated her from most of her family. Scout doesn’t want to risk losing her father’s life, too. While he’s alive, that is. If Scout is forced to live with only Drew, it would be nice if he didn’t hate her. On the other hand…
On the other hand… if Scout didn’t have to live with Drew… if he were, say, dead… why, that would be a whole other story! If Drew were out of the way, Scout could see her brothers. And her grandma. And her aunts. And basically anyone she wanted, without fear that Drew might remember that they snubbed him in an elevator once by letting the door shut in his face, and now he has a score to settle.
Could Scout have been the one to shoot Drew? Maybe because she heard about this girl in Salem, who shot her uncle… and got away with it, scot-free.
