Starting today, "Felipe's Positives", will spotlight the Green Bay Packers' standout performances every Monday during football season. Whether it’s a coach, a player, a position group, or an entire unit, each week we'll break down who made a positive impact in the game.

This week, the Green Bay Packers edged out the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-27 with a last-second field goal. It's the second consecutive week Green Bay has secured victory in the final moments with a clutch field goal.

Without further ado, let's get to some positives: 

1-Josh Jacobs

Jacobs powered the Packers' offense with 127 yards on 25 carries, averaging 5.1 yards per attempt and scoring two touchdowns. Not bad for a "below-average" running back, right? "I told myself yesterday if it came down to it, I’d put the team on my back," Jacobs told Megan Olivi in a post-game interview. He is currently a top-five back in rushing yards and yards after contact. Josh Jacobs may be set for another heavy workload next week. On Monday, an MRI confirmed good news regarding Jordan Love's status; he suffered a strained groin on Sunday and the Packers will monitor him throughout the week. If he can't go, I'd expect Jacobs to have over 25 touches against the Detroit Lions.

2-Tucker Kraft

It feels like Tucker Kraft’s name comes up every week, and for good reason. He caught three passes for 78 yards this week, including a 67-yard strike from Jordan Love. Scoring a touchdown on National Tight Ends Day was fitting, and he’s now recorded multiple catches in 16 straight games, which is the longest streak for a Packers tight end in the Super Bowl era. He was also Green Bay's highest-graded player in the game, per Pro Football Focus. Safe to say Kraft has crushed Green Bay's third-round curse.

3-Malik Willis

Once again, Malik Willis came to the Packers' rescue. He completed 4 out of 5 attempts for 56 yards, including a touchdown to Tucker Kraft. He an absolute seed out of a play-action bootleg to Jayden Reed, which placed Green Bay in field goal range. His dual-threat ability was crucial in setting up Jacobs' 38-yard touchdown. On that play, the safety blitzed off the edge but hesitated on the read option, opening a small window for Jacobs to turn upfield for the score.

4-Edgerrin Cooper

Cooper is Green Bay's top off-ball linebacker. Against Jacksonville, he logged 34 defensive snaps, recorded a pressure, a strip sack on Trevor Lawrence that set up a touchdown, the second-most tackles, and led Green Bay in stops, which is a tackle that result in an offensive failure. He earned the team’s third-highest defensive and coverage grades. Cooper needs (and should) get all the snaps he can get. 

5-Xavier McKinney

It's certainly a risky (and questionable) choice to throw in Xavier McKinney's direction in 2024. He recorded his sixth interception of the season this Sunday, the most by any Packers player since Casey Hayward in 2012, achieving this in less than 7.5 games. McKinney is on track for All-Pro honors, as his play recognition, anticipation, and range embody everything you want in a starting safety.

6-Special Teams

Now, listen: The special teams did not jeopardize the game against the Jaguars, and given how abysmal the unit has been for some time, it’s worth celebrating a solid performance. They executed efficiently and did their job effectively. Daniel Whelan averaged 48.2 yards per punt, with four inside the 20. Brandon McManus was perfect, going 3 for 3 on extra points and kicking the game-winning field goal for the second straight week. He’s provided, so far, much-needed stability to Green Bay's kicking unit.

Let’s hope these guys can carry the momentum into next week. The Packers are heading into a massive divisional matchup against the Detroit Lions next Sunday, and they’ll need everyone to step up big time.
