From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.

So how was Eric Stokes so far behind King and Amos??

Guessing could be one of many things. Missed tackles, poor run support, bad passes or drops, bad coverage but not targetted or bailed out by safety.
Without the All-22, I don't know how anyone could grade the latter (targeted toward PFF).

My issue with voting King is it looked to me like Metcalf got open for potentially huge plays that likely would have gone for TDs while King was covering him, and King lucked out of getting burnt on them because Russ was under pressure and couldn't keep his eyes downfield. Stokes is more worthy.
But I am going to give my vote to Preston Smith, who had been quiet lately but really came on and harassed Russ during this game -- a big part of the secondary's success was our front-seven against the run and pass. Smith even had the sack with Gary off the field.

We all know it's because of the state line:
INT.
When a grading system grades players on the same scale as I do based on watching LIVE and fan emotion, that is not a good grading system. After more review, Stokes was the best CB yesterday by far.

Great arguments for King and Stokes and Amos and Preston, but I’m going with Dillon.
The Packers lunatic fringe is more visible because of sheer numbers. The Packers have one of the largest fan bases in all of sports. If the fringe percentage is the same as with other teams, then we end up with larger volumes of nut jobs. - JustJeff

you watch the action around the BALL, PFF has people that watch individual players play whether the BALL is around that player or not, big difference.
obviously PFF can and is wrong at times, no one is perfect, but they take in degree of difficulty and other factors we don't.
probably why King had a higher grade then Stokes
I also vote for King.

We all watch the action around the ball because it is all the broadcast will allow us to see.

thats BS and you know it.
No, actually it's legitimate fact. The broadcast only shows the whole field on rare occasions, so it is impossible to watch anything but the action around the ball.

I too vote for Dillon and an honorable mention to Amos.
