Summary
Big Sal from Peshtigo has been sitting on this one since October — and he is done waiting. Rashan Gary is gone, the farewell graphic was apparently the work of a very thoughtful hacker, and Sal has the receipts on one of the great statistical magic tricks in recent Packers history.
- Gary led the entire NFL in sacks after Week 7 — then recorded ZERO sacks and ZERO tackles for loss from Week 8 through the end of the playoffs. Three hundred and thirty-seven players outproduced him down the stretch.
- Sal breaks down exactly why those first seven weeks happened: Micah Parsons was drawing every double team in America, handing Gary clean one-on-ones all day. That's not a breakout. That's arithmetic.
- This isn't the first time — Gary ran the exact same hot-start, cold-finish pattern in 2023, and Gutekunst signed the $96 million extension anyway.
- Now the Packers move on with Lukas Van Ness — two career starts — as the next man up. The cap space is real. The pass rush is still a question.
Subscribe, leave a review, and tell a friend. Tell them to watch the whole season. Not just the first seven weeks. LET'S GO PACK.
