The Packers did not elevate anyone from the practice squad for the Giants game.  Instead, the Packers elected to leave Jack Heflin on the practice squad and to have just four defensive linemen active. The team left Rasheed Walker, Samori Toure, Sean Rhyan, Jonathan Ford and Devonte Wyatt inactive.  Zach Tom and Jordan Love were active but did not play.

The Packers were able to consistently run the ball.  Jones and Dillon combined for 11 carries and 56 yards in the first half, a 5.1-yard average.  Christian Watson lost 3 yards on a jet sweep but otherwise only one run lost yardage. 

Rodgers completed 18 of 24 passing attempts in the first half for 147 yards and 2 touchdowns.  His passer rating was 117.9 in the first half.   Rodgers was not sacked and the Giants had no quarterback hits in the first half.  There was some pressure on Rodgers including from some free rushers necessitating a hot read.  Royce Newman gave up some ground on occasion.  Still, the Packers scored two touchdowns and two field goals on their five possessions, yielding a healthy 20 points in the first half.  

Randall Cobb caught 5 of 8 targets for 76 yards, while Doubs contributed 21 yards on 2 receptions.  Marcedes Lewis and Allen Lazard combined only caught three passes for 10 yards in the first half, but each of them had a touchdown reception.  There were some receptions exploiting the middle of the field to Cobb and Doubs, both with plenty of yards gained after the catch.  The Packers failed to connect on any of their deep passes.  The Packers' time of possession was 17 minutes and 24 seconds in the first half to 12 minutes and 36 seconds for the Giants.

Jones and Dillon combined for just 8 carries for 41 yards in the second half, still good for a 5.1 yard average.  Rodgers completed 7 of 15 passes for 75 yards in the second half.  There was more pressure in the second half as Rodgers was sacked twice and hit four times.  The Packers had 3 possessions plus the final one play, hail mary possession, but failed to score on any of them.  One of their possessions last just 26 seconds due to 3 incomplete passes right after the Giants scored a touchdown on an eight minute drive consisting of 15 plays and 91 yards.  The Giants' time of possession in the secon half was 19 minutes and 35 seconds, to Green Bay's 10 minutes and 25 seconds. 

The Packers ran 33.9% of plays, and passed 66.1% of the time.  The Giants played 5.25 defensive backs on average per play.  They had big Dexter Lawrence on the field for 57 snaps out of 63 plays (90%) but played 2.03 true defensive linemen per play overall.  I saw some formations that looked inhospitable to runs, but it appears that the personnel was more defensive backs than big beefy players.  Jones and Dillon need more than 21 touches in games.  

The Packers allowed 10 points in the first half and 17 more in the second half.  Kenny Clark dominated the opposing center in the first half as he seemed to live in the backfield.  Clark had 3 tackles (2 solo) in the first half, but he had no stats in the second half.  Preston Smith added 2 tackles (1 solo), a tackles for loss, and a sack in the first half.  Smith finished with 3 quarterback hits and 4 tackles.

Jarran Reed had a sack/forced fumble that he recovered at the Giants' 7-yard line, but a holding call on Rasul Douglas gave the Giants five yards and a first down.  They would then march down the field for a touchdown, with the big play being a 40-yard run on a direct snap to Saquon Barkley.  The touchdown came on a 2-yard double reverse to the Giants' tight end, Daniel Bellinger.  It looked like Dean Lowry had a chance to shut down that play had he been a little more aware.  Rashan Gary would also have a sack erased due to a holding penalty called on Darnell Savage, though that penalty was a little ticky-tacky.  The Giants got a field goal on a 56-yard on that possession.  

Other than the 40-yard run, the Packers held Barkley to 15 yards on 6 carries in the first half.  Daniels, Breida and Bellinger each got a carry that netted a combined 8 yards.  Barkley rushed 6 times for 15 more yards in the second half.  Daniel Jones started to both scramble and execute some designed runs.  Jones finished with 37 yards on 10 carries, but most of them were "successful" runs in that they gained a first down. 

Daniel Jones completed 8 of 13 passes for 81 yards in the first half, including 46 yards to WR Darius Slayton, who seemed to catch passes over the middle and elsewhere else all day.  Jones completed 13 of 14 passes for 136 yards in the second half.  I did not see Daniel Jones make a "big-time" throw; rather, the defensive secondary seemed dazed and confused, with plenty of communication breakdowns.  Quay Walker finished with 8 tackles (5 solo) while Campbell had 5 solo tackles.

Special Teams:

Although it does not show up clearly in the snap counts, it is interesting that after Amari Rodgers fumbled during a punt return, Christian Watson took over the kickoff return duties.  The Giants did not punt again, so there is no evidence whether another player would have replaced Amari Rodgers on punt returns.
