    The offense was especially productive on the ground, rolling up more than 200 yards rushing as Ahman Green (21 carries, 106 yards) and Vernand Morency (11-101) became the first pair of Packer running backs to crack the century mark in the same game in 21 years.

    Did the trade make any sense because Gado hasn't done anything,Who would you prefer Lundy or Morency?

    Well don't both have the same type of running game? In fact that is why we traded for Gado to begin with. I would expect them to put up similar numbers. I honestly don't know who I would prefer but I'm guessing I'd choose Lundy?

    I always thought trading Morency was a mistake. I thought he showed some potential in the preseason and they traded him for Gado who has pretty much played the same as Ron Dayne

    Morency is a terrible blocker, and is still being used as a "change of pace" back in Green Bay.

    Ahman Green (who has had two great games in a row) is in no danger of losing his starting job.

    Lundy's looking good right now, also, so I'm not complaining at all.

    Di you watch Morency in the preseason? He had improved his blocking tremendously. In one of the interviews after the game, Kubiak even comented on how Morency was ahead of Lundy in that aspect of the game. He's not very big but from what I saw from him, he would always get low and was able to put down some good protection
