There’s a lot of reasons the Packers won today, but certainly one of them is the reemergence of Cullen Jenkins. I thought going in (and actually said on Dennis Miller) that Jenkins had to be huge today. It was clearly going to be important for the Packers to get a push up the middle to collapse the pocket on Matt Hasselback. They did that and more. Jenkins had (at least) two sacks and I can remember one play specifically when he made a tackle some ten yards down the field, offering late pursuit.
Bigby was huge. Favre was Favre. Grant was exceptional. And Cullen Jenkins was back.

Don’t forget the OL. They dominated a talented, fast front seven that just blew up the Redskins’ offense last week.
Congrats to the Pack and fans, and on behalf of Redskins fans everywhere, thanks for avenging our defeat.
