Also, according to Pro Football Reference, Charles Woodson had a streak of three games at the end of the 2006 season, a streak of three games in the middle of the 2007 season. Darnell Savage would be in some good company. Here's to solid coverage, a quick pressure, rushed throws, and the ball in 26's hands!

Savage has played two of his best games as a member of the Packers the past two weeks – and he did so by being in the right position, trusting his instincts and letting plays come to him. He has the talent. He has the speed. And now he's putting together the mental side of the game, too.

Great team effort in the win against the Eagles. How about the athleticism shown by Savage on his INT? I know these guys are professionals and they spend their lives getting their bodies ready to play. My jaw still hit the ground when I saw him make that catch!

That's why they test players in the vertical every February in Indy.

Lions always seem to play the Packers well – what are your keys for the game to come away with a "W"?

Don't let Matthew Stafford get into a rhythm. Once he starts dealing, Stafford is a tough QB to win a shootout against. Just ask the Bears. Also, the Packers need another start fast this Sunday. They've been in some real slobberknockers with the Lions at Ford Field over the years, even in games in which they've been heavily favored. Green Bay needs another first half like the ones it's had the past three weeks.

Who is the one player to watch on the Lions next week? Having DeAndre Swift and/or Kenny Golladay back will be huge for them. But T.J. Hockenson has emerged as a fantastic target for Stafford.

It's probably Hockenson. Golladay is an elite receiver if he does play, but the Packers are as healthy as they've been all season at cornerback. Hockenson can cause a lot of matchup problems for any defense, but especially now with Raven Greene out. Hockenson has come into his own this season to develop into one of Stafford's most trusted confidants on the field. He's also probably overdue for a trip to the end zone. The Packers need to hold him off one more week.

How do think the Packers stack up against the run moving forward in the playoffs with the elite running backs?

Ask me again after the Tennessee game.

Paul from Johannesburg, South Africa

Early in the year, Krys Barnes was getting a lot of playing time and good press coverage on packers.com. I understand Kamal Martin has earned his starting spot but I would still expect Barnes to be in a LB rotation. I don't recall seeing him in on any snaps for the past several games, however. Is this just because of Martin's play or has something else also happened?

Sunday was Barnes' first game back after a month-long stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list. The Packers have finally gotten healthy at inside linebacker, too, with Christian Kirksey back in the lineup. Barnes showed he could be trusted earlier this year and the defense may need to turn to him again at some point down the stretch.

Bruce from Green Bay, WI

When it comes to the Packers' defense, while they are playing at a competitive level, do you think less is more? What if the defense's game plan were more simplified like ML did with the offense?

That's what they're striving for, too. I'll be interested to hear what Mike Pettine has to say about that later today.

Bill from Somers, NY

Lost in the great game was the drop by MVS again. A 50-plus yard throw by Aaron Rodgers. Do you think A-Rod can trust him in a critical situation?

Curt from Algonquin, IL

Can we get some recognition for the blocks MVS threw on Jones's 77-yard TD run? I was impressed by a WR running downfield to block, but the Rock Report showed how amazing it really was. Running full tilt, bodies flying everywhere, and he has the skill and presence of mind to keep two very difficult blocks to the defenders' side and legal in a situation where a lesser player could've blocked from behind and had the whole play flagged and called back. As always, the Rock Report is must-watch video!
