Good morning II, just a question and a welcome. Welcome to II to Dan from MI. My question is since I know all the inside jokes II readers laugh about, does that make me part of the "in" crowd? Are we now the In-Insiders Inbox? The III?
Oh, what I would do for Dan from Bridgman's blissful ignorance. It's like putting salt on pizza, Dan. Once you do it, there is no going back.

Nathaniel Hackett commented that they were trying to Allen Lazard into a TE in Jacksonville. Is he now banned from the Inbox?
I talked with Lazard about this when I did my profile on him last December. He got up all the way into the 230s when he was in Jacksonville. Comparatively, he played last season in the 210s. There is no straight line to success. It takes trial-and-error. Fortunately, Lazard seems to have found the right formula, and weight, in Green Bay.

We beat the Vikings in both contests last year and we did it with dominant running outputs. For all the changes in the MN roster, where do you see them as improved over what they had last year in terms of the front seven? I have seen a lot of players leaving but seems only the former Jags DE is the added talent that is significant.
This was my key to victory for this game. The Packers must get Aaron Jones and the running game going, preferably early. The Vikings' linebackers are as good as they get in the NFL but I think there is an opportunity there to penetrate that front after the departures of Linval Joseph and Everson Griffen. Michael Pierce would have been a problem but he is opting out this year. As much as this is a big test for the Packers, I think the same is true for the Vikings Sunday.

It's always a tough matchup against the Vikes, but with two rookie corners, they will need to use their stud safeties to help double and maybe even triple Davante Adams at times, leaving a lot of room in the box for "33" and "30." I see a lot of ball control happening in this game to set up the play-action. This is the stuff ML must dream about at night. What is your insight? Is it possible that two rookie corners equals a big day on the ground?
I've spoken for months about how eager I am to see how LaFleur puts all these playmakers to use on offense. The pundits want to make everything about Adams and Jones, but there are very dangerous weapons in this offense if defenses overlook them. And the more attention Adams gets, the more it opens up those other options.

I looked into the 10 one-score games that "prove" the Packers will regress. In all but the 10-3 Chicago win and the two Detroit wins, the Packers had a double-digit lead at one point, usually early. On a team running a new offensive scheme, this might indicate that the offense had the ability to be great against good teams but couldn't sustain momentum, not that they simply got "lucky" in 10 games. Put the Year 2 offense in the same situations and I think those leads grow, not shrink. Thoughts?
Kenny Clark made a great point Friday when he talked about how it's too difficult to win in this league for a 13-3 record to be regarded as a fluke. Frankly, I think it's disrespectful to take that viewpoint. The offense looked noticeably sharper this summer. If that translates to game days, I think the doubters are in for a big wake-up call.
