Green Sets Pack's All-Time Rushing Record


The lone bright spot in this weekend's upest loss to Tampa Bay was Ahman Green's record setting day. Green became the all-time leading Packer rusher, passing Jim Taylor's career total of 8,207 yards. Green carried the ball 6 times for 45 yards on Sunday, providing a small spark in the second half, however, it wasn't enough, as numerous other problems for the Packers led to a loss. Said Green, "This is kind of a bittersweet thing, you know. It would have been better if we had won, but it happened the way it happened."

The Packers have a lot of work to do in practice this week if they want to avoid their 3rd loss in a row. The Cowboys will most likely be a tougher opponent than the Bucs, and will look to exploit many of the same weaknesses that were shown this past weekend.

  1. not too much work this week though, McCarthy blamed the loss on "overworking them" in practice.
