    You answered the most important question in why you keep a backup in you statement, and why you don't.

    Porter Jr. extension wouldn't kick in until next year.

    I already started happy hour, but we could have the best team offense since Ken Whisenhunt was OC.

    I liked what I saw from Bernard and Wetjen. Our WR room is all of a sudden taking shape.

    As the game progressed, I liked how Tonyan was contributing to the passing game. I didn’t pay too close attention, but wonder how he is as an in-line blocker.

    QB play was good, understanding it is preseason and most QBs will look good against vanilla defenses.

    I still don’t love Rudolph. He didn’t seem to navigate the pocket too well, got a couple of sacks. If the play unfolds quickly and on time and ball is out, Rudolph is alright, but if it is a longer developing play or things break down, Rudolph seems to struggle.

    It’s preseason but the trolls were minimal

    The bitching about the refs was less than usual

    Mason actually played the first two series where there were still a few starters on the packers D. And Given our O line performance he was fine.
