To piggy back on Fritz's idea, I hope the O and D show up at the start. This will be a shoot out.

I will be anchored to my couch Sunday, my blood pressure skying. Especially when I watch the Packer defense.

Stafford will be sacked 5 times
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.
That would be a recipe for a win, as long as the offense does its part. I hope you are right, TO.

No turnovers and the Packers win this.

Football games are still going on? Well I'll be a son-of-a-bitch. I thought everything got canceled due to the lack of discussion about it in the media.
I think you guys beat the Lions but it's not going to a walk in the park........Vikings unlikely to beat the Saints despite a putrid defense.

I'm sure you considered leaving your squad when Davenport shit in the laundry basket but I ain't like that.
He did that in college. And it was kinda endearing, anyway. Gave new meaning to "Go, Pack, Go!"I'm sure you considered leaving your squad when Davenport shit in the laundry basket but I ain't like that.

Like Davenport's agent said, "he's leaving everything behind him".I'm sure you considered leaving your squad when Davenport shit in the laundry basket but I ain't like that.
Thx for the support, Rasta man. This would be a big win for us. We need all the division games in hand we can get.
It was Fritz but it's a great story similar to the wizzinator so I use it when I can - but let's not derail the discussion. So how is the confidence in Michigan for Sundays game?
Got a friend who's a die hard Lions fan. He's feeling pretty cocky right now. I'm talking The Lions up. Lulling him into a sense of false security.
I heard both Hayward and Hyde were full participants at practice yesterday but Bulaga was still limited.
Yes.

Bryan Bulaga again in pads for the #Packers at tackle. Seemed to do a lot. McCarthy will be speaking later.

Brandon Bostick (fibula) in pads, participating in position drills during segment of practice open to media.

Also practicing for Green Bay was Casey Hayward (glute). Only players out: Brad Jones, Andy Mulumba.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
They're really providing a lot more detail in their injury reports now. They've got it down to specific bones and muscles instead of just "leg" and "ass".

You had to open THAT old wound?
Jones being out is addition by subtraction - now if we can only find a way to get Hawk off the field, we might be on to something.
Unfortunately - there is always dunderdummy

wist, the thing I can't understand is this whole defensive play calling thing. Apparently, there are rules that only one guy on defense can wear the headset in his helmet. But then does that guy have to play all the snaps? What if he gets hurt?
In the first game Jones wore the headset and played every defensive down. In the second, Hawk wore it and played every down.
Is our defense so complicated and dependent on schemes and personnel groups that it would fall apart without communicating on the headset? Stubby is big on cross training guys, can't he have Burnett or Shields or Tramon or Matthews wear it and call defensive signals? Are we forever tied to Jones or Hawk?
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.
John Maxymuk, Packers By The Numbers
Have you ever considered that the defense may not be intentionally faulty? Like what if Capers has never said "The goal is to give up 30 points this week" or "We're just not going to try controlling the line of scrimmage"? What if Thompson has never said "Lets pass on that guy, he's too physical for us"?
What if there are 31 other teams also trying to build the perfect defense and competing for all the same resources and even the most fortunate one still won't give up just 13 points per game?
And to answer your question yes there are other teams just as QB dependent. The Broncos, Bears, Giants, Steelers, Saints, and Patriots all come to mind. I'd wager nearly every team would also be smoldering heap of dysfunction after losing 20 million dollars worth of their best players.
