What are your thoughts on Lacy last night from the “eye test”?

He looked better than he has all season sans game 1. I'll take it as a step in the right direction.

He outsnapped Starks by just 2 though. Still has me worried.

That's true, but he had I think 11 carries and Starks had 4(?). Plus Lacy had the only goal line carries (2), including the TD. Starks is a much better 3rd down back right now, Lacy isnt as much of a receiving threat or pass blocker (despite his girth). Lacy is gonna get most of the 1st and 2nd down carries, short yardage and goal line carries still. I think he should be good if he continues to improve.

The blocking was pretty bad for GB, the LBers were filling the holes and stuffing the run almost immediately. That should get better bc they have a good o line. And Lacy showed some burst on two 10 yard runs. And the TD run was great, he tried to bump the run outside and got pulled down quickly his first carry for no gain. Next carry he realizes his mistake and uses his size to plow through the line and a LB to get the TD. Learning from his mistakes and to use his extra size will help him
