Which 2020 rookie will have the best career?
I have no idea, and anyone who says otherwise is lying.

Has another plague been added to 2020? First COVID, then riots, then wildfires, then election commercials, and now torn ACLs. Has the NFC just become a war of attrition?
If there's anything that has stayed relatively normal in 2020, it might be just that. Yes, some big names have gone down with injuries, but call it health or attrition or whatever you want, it's always a factor in this game.

While scoring on consecutive possessions around halftime is awesome, it is in no way a guaranteed outcome. I have always favored deferring for the reason that is guaranteed (minus a turnover) – you assure that the other team doesn't get a shot at two consecutive possessions. Play the odds. If a team can't overcome a 7-0 deficit, they have other issues to address.
Couldn't agree more.

I think James from Appleton, WI, was more focused on fans' psyches. Stress is a killer.
Fair enough, but I've learned over the years you have to embrace crunch time, not dread it. That's when you find out a lot about a team.

Have the Packers ever scored 40-plus points in three consecutive regular-season games? What is the record for 40-plus points scored in a season? Keeping my fingers crossed that 2020 will be a year of new individual and team records! Keep up the great work!
I'm not touting my quick research as gospel, but I did not find any time the Packers have scored 40-plus in three straight games except for the inaugural 1919 season, when they did so in eight of their first nine games. Some of the better three-game stretches I found were in '61 (45-49-33 for 127), 2011 (45-45-35 for 125) and '14 (55-53-24 for 132).

If New Orleans is one of your least favorite places to cover, what is your favorite (obviously putting aside Green Bay)?
Like Wes, I will not miss the three-day headache and ear ringing that's part and parcel of covering a night game in the Superdome. As far as places we don't travel to regularly that I enjoy, Philadelphia ranks up there. Those fans bring an atmosphere to that place that's hard to describe, but you can feel it, yet the enclosed press box makes the noise level tolerable to work the game.

Based on snap counts, Allen Lazard would be our No. 2 receiver, but I'm wondering if that's how other teams are playing us. Have you been able to tell if other teams view Lazard or Marquez Valdes-Scantling as the No. 2 guy?
I'm not sure defenses look at it that way. I think they have to decide how they want to match up with the more physical receiver (Lazard) vs. the speed guy (MVS), and they go from there. It can also depend on an opponent's plan for Davante Adams. Some will shadow him with their No. 1 guy. Others will use the No. 1 guy elsewhere and keep a safety shaded to Adams' side all the time. Yet another way it's a week-to-week league.
