Week 2 the Saints stayed away from the middle and took their chances attacking down the field and against Brady Poppinga in coverage (he was bad then and so bad today Poppinga was replaced at SLB with Ben Taylor)
Today, nothing out of the ordinary.
When I looked at the numbers after today's game I was surprised how low his tackle count was...he was active and around the ball all game. No worries moving forward.

Taylor replaced Poppinga on passing situations.. not Poppinga's strength and something that will continue.. his strength is against the run. Add to that AJ Hawk is improving and I think this combination is digging into Barnett's stats a little... albeit Barnett still had a very respectable game with 2 solos and 7 assists.
The bottom line is this Packer's LB unit is improving as a whole and Barnett won't be the only factor in the stat line any longer.
