Green Bay Packers and the Rusher Star Micah Parsons will try to rely on an impressive defensive performance in their first match when they welcome Washington commanders on Thursday evening.
Green Bay opened its doors with a dominant victory of 27-13 against his rival of division Detroit, the title champion of the NFL North, in the beginnings of Parsons Lambeau Field on Sunday.
Washington’s defense was just as impressive, keeping the New York giants out of the goal area during a 21-6 victory at the opening of the season.
Parsons, acquired a week before the regular season in an exchange of superproductions with the Dallas cowboys, was the subject of attention on and off the field. Parsons recorded his first bag at the end of the fourth quarter, but the rest of the defense of Green Bay was also stellar against the high power attack of the Lions.
“I was super impressed by the speed of their defense,” said commanders of the commanders Dan Quinn on Tuesday. “When you look through the drafts, OK, second, yes. Second, yes. Then, adding security, (Rashan defensive line) Gary outside, adding Micah to that.”
Green Bay denied lions in the goal area until the last minute. Detroit only managed 246 yards in total, including 46 on the ground. The packers had nine plated for the loss with four bags.
The Packers’ offensive was effective early, forging an advance from 17-3 to half-time behind the two Touché passes by Jordan Love. Love completed 16 of the 22 passes for 188 yards with 10 receivers. Josh Jacobs ran 66 from the 78 yards of Green Bay on the ground.
“They have a system and a style and a way to play and they are really faithful to this,” said Quinn. “The proof is in the results of what they did in the racing game.”
Packers had procedures step by step on Monday and Tuesday, which is different from a normal week, because the head coach Matt Lafleur wanted to provide them with information from the commanders as soon as possible. Four players injured during the opening of the season did not participate either: the goalkeeper Aaron Banks (ankle / groin), the defensive winger Brenton Cox Jr. (groin), the corner of the corner Bo Melton (shoulder) and the right tackle Zach Tom (oblique).
“We will give (Banks and Tom) until the match time to see where they are,” said Lafleur on Tuesday. “Certainly two guys who have a lot of experience, so I am not as concerned about them (missing practice representatives). Yes, we pass through, but there are no live representatives this week.”
Washington’s defense, shredded during a 55-23 defeat against Philadelphia in the NFC title in the last season, held the giants at 231 yards in total and 4 out of 16 in the third advance conversions.
Commanders accumulated 432 yards in total offense. Jayden Daniels completed 19 of the 30 passes for 233 yards with a touchdown and no interception while adding 68 yards to the ground. Deebo Samuel had seven receptions for 77 yards during the beginnings of his commanders and precipitated 19 yards for a score on his only attempt.
The recruit Jacory Croskey-Merritt carried 10 times for 82 yards, including a score, Car Washington ran for 220 yards and on average 6.9 yards per race.
“We have a hell of a challenge this week against, in my opinion, one of the best offenses in the match,” said Lafleur. “They have a ton of weapons … There is nothing (Daniels) cannot do.”
Daniels was listed on the report on injuries on Monday with a right wrist injury, but Quinn said it was more formality.
“We have no level (concern), we simply try to keep it, policies and transparency, as clear as possible,” said Quinn, “but, we have no concerns.”
The bettor Tress Way did not participate in the step -by -step procedure on Monday and was a limited participant on Tuesday after suffering a back injury in the first game.
“He is improving and we will have kicks tomorrow, then we prepare him to play,” said Quinn.
