Packers' Randall Cobb: Pulls off double duty successfully in Week 7 win

Cobb notched 11 receptions on 15 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown and added 21 yards on five carries in Thursday's 26-10 win over the Bears.

Analysis:

Like teammate Ty Montgomery, Cobb was called upon for some double duty Thursday given the decimated state of the Packers backfield. He contributed modestly on the ground but was solid through the air while receiving the second-most targets on the night. Cobb has now scored in consecutive weeks after getting shut of the end zone over Green Bay's first four games, and has seen a total of 37 targets over the last three contests. That level of attention is likely unsustainable over the long term, but the sixth-year pro has certainly regained his footing in the offense after some early-season struggles.
