A 40-40 primetime tie heading into the BYE Week leaves almost too much room for breaking down the Green Bay Packers’ sudden downturn. But a little issue here and a little issue there is exactly how the Packers went from early Super Bowl favorites to 2-1-1.
One of those issues is plaguing the otherwise strong start for linebacker Edgerrin Cooper. According to Pro Football Focus’s stats, Cooper has 28 tackles,13 run stops (any tackle that results in a failed run play), and half a sack through four weeks, but little else. No turnovers and few tackles for loss also stand out on his early-season resume.
