PACKERS HALFTIME QUOTES
HEAD COACH MIKE McCARTHY
(on stepping up the level of play, physically)
"Yeah, I think we're off to a good start. We started a little slow there in the first quarter, but I think we're definitely off to a good start."
(on play of the offensive line)
"Yeah, so far, they're holding up OK. The film will always tell you the true story but today, obviously, our point production is up. We've made a couple of big plays. I think we've been excellent on third down for the offense. I'm very pleased so far."
(on general thoughts on the first half)
"We just have to finish the game. This is only 30 minutes of good football. We need to make sure we finish with another 30 minutes of good football."
QB BRETT FAVRE
(on offensive performance, after last week)
"We drove the ball really well. We had some good drives; that was a good feeling, compared to San Diego, where we couldn't get a lot going. We still have a ways to go, but we made some strides this week. It seemed like we got a few bounces tonight that we didn't have last year, like on the touchdown to Bubba (Franks). I wish we were a little more consistent in the running game, but it'll come."
(on the running game)
"Najeh (Davenport) looked a lot more comfortable this week. We added a few more wrinkles to keep the defense a little more off balanced. We're still not there yet, but we're definitely moving in the right direction."
(on Donald Driver)
"What can you say? I'm not surprised. He keeps himself in such good shape. He's ready to go."
DE AARON KAMPMAN
(on defensive effort against Falcons' run game)
"We held our own. We can still keep improving, but we're definitely on our way toward being ready for the regular season."
(on this week's performance compared to last week at San Diego)
"I just think we came out and hit them in the mouth a little more than we did against the Chargers. It was more of a team effort."
