Packers vs. Baltimore

Here's the tale of the tape from the Packers' 27-14 win over Baltimore on Monday:

In spite of themselves

Twenty-seven points and 350 yards confirm just how much the Packers offense is doing well, even on a night it's plagued by fundamental errors.

QB Aaron Rodgers gift-wrapped one interception for backup FS Tom Zbikowski early on a horrible decision against combo coverage, then missed so low for slanting WR Donald Driver the ball caromed off Driver's leg to OLB Jarrett Johnson.

Driver was stripped by CB Chris Carr after catching a hot slant and had one of the Packers' five drops. LT Chad Clifton allowed three hits on Rodgers in a rocky first quarter and had two of four penalties on the line. RG Josh Sitton was torched for a sack by DE Trevor Pryce and had a hand in one of three negative runs on a night RBs Ryan Grant and Ahman Green didn't break one longer than 8 yards.

In spite of all that, the Packers mounted five scoring drives in 12 possessions and had a sixth thwarted by QB Matt Flynn's botched hold on the 38-yard field-goal attempt PK Mason Crosby sliced wide right. The Ravens sorely missed the range of FS Ed Reed and the rush of OLB Terrell Suggs, but this was just as much about the Packers' firepower in the passing game.

Though Rodgers' accuracy wavered, his mobility and ability to adjust at the line once again came up huge. On the last touchdown drive alone, he escaped a collapsed pocket to hit FB Korey Hall for 13, tossed a backside option to Driver for 14 and rolled right to clear a passing lane to TE Jermichael Finley on a 19-yard score.

Finley embarrassed Zbikowski on both of his TDs, winning a jump ball on a 2-yard fade and bouncing off a weak tackle before lunging across the goal line on the 19-yarder. Driver made CB Domonique Foxworth look silly with an inside shimmy on his 8-yard score. WR Greg Jennings dropped two early but finished with 77 yards on six catches, plus a 25-yard interference call against CB Frank Walker.

The line gave up only the one sack with help from the backs, who stayed in or chipped 20 times in 43 dropbacks (46.5 percent) -- none bigger than Green's crack on ILB Dannell Ellerbe on a 29-yard slant to Finley. LG Daryn Colledge had one of his better days, and RT Mark Tauscher continues to be a steadying presence.

No offense is perfect, but imagine what this group could do if it just reduced those basic errors.

Williams' wall

As long as CB Charles Woodson keeps up his dominant play, teams will keep throwing at counterpart Tramon Williams -- so Williams needs to clean up his technique in a hurry.

The Packers played 29 of 66 snaps (43.9 percent) in base or Big Okie, their third-highest percentage all season. That meant nickel CB Jarrett Bush was on the field less than usual, leaving Williams as the natural target.

Ravens QB Joe Flacco threw Williams' way 13 times, and Williams mostly was in fine position -- only three passes were completed for 37 yards, and Williams intercepted Flacco on a clueless cross-field throw into the end zone.

But Williams also drew three pass-interference penalties (cost: 112 yards) and could have drawn a fourth for repeatedly contacting the receiver's arm(s) while the ball was in the air.

It's as simple as this: when you're step for step and have vision on the ball, play the ball, not the man. The last thing Williams needs is a reputation as "the arm-bar guy," because the flags never will stop flying.

Flacco threw at Woodson five times, netting two completions for 8 yards, one pass-interference penalty each way and an interception to FS Nick Collins on a clueless flea-flicker into 4-on-2 coverage.

Bush was targeted only three times in 33 snaps (50 percent). Two were completed for 26 yards, although the 12-yard TD to WR Kelley Washington came after Flacco broke contain.

Playmakers

* Rookie ROLB Clay Matthews' motor continues to impress, but he owes the defensive line some thanks for its role in his big day. DL Cullen Jenkins had the penetration that forced RB Ray Rice wide on the early run Matthews stopped for a loss of 1. DL B.J. Raji's push mudded up the backfield on the counter run to Rice that ended in a Matthews strip. And Jenkins got first pressure off a spin move to flush Flacco into Matthews' victory-clinching sack. Matthews' other sack was all him, whipping LT Jared Gaither off the initial punch.

* Raji (35 snaps) had his own nice day, twice working off LG Ben Grubbs to drop a runner for loss or no gain and hitting Flacco's arm on a late incompletion. The third key rookie on defense, LOLB Brad Jones, tallied four pressures, including his sack against RT Michael Oher.

* Credit TE Spencer Havner and OL Evan Dietrich-Smith with good blocks on WR Jordy Nelson's 38-yard opening kick return, which prompted Baltimore to kick short the rest of the day. That would have been even better if Dietrich-Smith hadn't clowned one of the pooches into a near-turnover.

Play breakers

* The chasm opened on CB Lardarius Webb's late 68-yard kick return when OLB Prescott Burgess got ILB Brandon Chillar crossed and turned behind OLB Brady Poppinga, who also was mugged up. Crosby didn't help matters with a weak tackle attempt in the hole.

* His athletic interception in the fourth quarter made up for everything else, but ILB A.J. Hawk didn't have his most consistent day. He missed tackles on consecutive third-quarter plays that went for 33 yards combined and lost vision on the late draw Rice took up the middle for 21.

* Collins was out of position all the way on TE Todd Heap's third-down catch that went for 23, one play before Collins recovered the fumble Matthews forced.
