Two weeks down, and suddenly we're starting to see some things take shape. Jahmyr Gibbs is getting WR2-level targets. Kenneth Walker is getting an absurd workload. Aaron Rodgers is somehow throwing the ball less efficiently than Cam Ward. And somewhere in Atlanta, Kyle Pitts is wondering why he bothered getting dressed. Meanwhile, rookies are making
