We made some bold predictions on our preview column, so let’s check the results:
Aaron Rodgers gets 300 yards
Psh, he had 400. Full credit.
Score: 1.0
Aaron Jones breaks off his longest run of the year
He didn’t even get a run half as long as his long. Against a line missing a stud and his backup? Pathetic.
Score: 0.0
Smith and Smith combine for fewer than 2 sacks
Shutout. Sad, but I saw it coming.
Score: 1.0
Davante Adams has his best game of the year
He had the best game of his life and if he stayed healthy, he might have broken the franchise record.
Score: 1.0
The Eagles rush for over 4 yards per carry
Yeah, they averaged a lot more than that.
Score: 1.0
Blake Martinez has a season high for tackles
Yup.
Score: 1.0
Carson Wentz gets 0 passing TDs
Whoops. I beleived in the pass defense, but the run defense was so bad that it opened up the play action. Wentz only had 160 yards, but he had a couple point blank TDs and a swing pass that Howard housed. It wasn’t as bad as it looked, but still… Blutarsky.
Score: 0.0
Jaire Alexander has another statement play because he’s Jaire Alexander
He had a big one, but it was ruled down. Overall, he had some nice defensive plays to earn me partial credit.
Score: 0.8
Packers 31, Eagles 16
I felt the offense was ready to get moving, but I did not see the defense doing quite this poorly in the red zone.
Score: 0.4
Total Predictions: 9
Total Score: 6.2
Percentage: 69%
Not good, but nice.
