Packers rookie Eric Stokes has ‘everything you…

Defensive coordinator Joe Barry

On Cleveland RB Nick Chubb:

He’s a phenomenal back. I think he’s a do-it-all back. Not only can carry the ball, he can receive the ball. They do a great job with him on screens, great in protection. The main thing is he is really elite as far as when they just turn around and hand the ball off to him, he’s really good. Got two Pro Bowl guards in front of him, a team that knows how to run the ball and wants to run the ball.

On getting caught with only 10 on the field in Baltimore:

It’s very irritating in the sense that, we as coaches and the players, we take so much pride in not beating ourselves, and we were able to survive the one time. They went tempo on us in a substitution situation, … thankfully we won that down, we were able to survive that down. The one down in the red zone at the end of the game in two-minute, that’s inexcusable. That can’t happen. We preach to our players, anytime you substitute in a two-minute situation, it has to be urgent. There can’t be any hesitation at all, and there was a little bit of hesitation. In the red zone, you have to be even more urgent because of the distance you have to travel (from the sideline). That last one was a miscommunication, … and those are mistakes that can potentially lose a football game for you.

He’s an unbelievably talented kid. He’s got everything you want in an NFL corner. He’s got height, he’s got length, he’s got speed. Running with him, he almost looks effortless when he runs. Even though he played the college game at the highest level at Georgia in the SEC, there’s still a learning curve. He’s come in and been a sponge. When you have an elite skill-level player and you have a kid who just wants to be better, comes out and works every day, those blocks he’s been able to stack on each other every single week, that’s allowed him to continue to grow, and he’s just a rookie. Very exciting.
