Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Does this mean Dom is playing his bench more in the 4th qtr? Or that his players are just letting up? Or that he is playing more "prevent" at the end of the game?Originally Posted by pbmax
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.

Clear evidence that the Packers are not physical enough. It's a finesse defense, and after three quarters of football even the dimmest of offensive minds has figured Dom out.
Hard to say what precipitates it. I have a feeling that happens in blowouts, but I would need to go back and look at the drives. Its tempting because it reinforces my belief the D has improved. But it wouldn't be inconsistent to maintain that and still recognize the D has some holes.

Uh, you're getting a little nuanced there, PB. Just make a blanket statement about the defense and stick to it, no matter what happens.

In crafting his offensive gameplan, Pack coach Mike McCarthy better break down lots of tape, of the 1940 Chicago Bears. Because that's their gameplan on D. They are 7 across the front and are going to beat the shit out of you. When the final gun goes off, they peer up at the scoreboard and see if they have more points than the other guys. These boys are big and strong, with a lot of mean mixed in. They have an attitude because nobody knows who they are, but they are the real deal. They have a top D, leading or close to it, the NFL in sacks
A few weeks back, I was watching NFL ticket with 8 games going. One game jumped out, the Bills. On D, each man in their front 4 was positively dominating the hell out of his man. One guy was really impressive. DE Jerry Hughes. Only 255, he is a coaching clinic on DE play. Quick, speedy and very violent with his hands. He had 10 sacks last year and has 9.5 this year. The DT's are like the old Williams wall for the Vikes. Marcel Dareus is a former high draft pick and he is an All Pro whether they voted him in or not. The other DT is Kyle Williams and he can stuff the run or rush the passer. Another solid player few have heard of. The other DE? Super Mario Willams, who has lived up to the hype, but news trickles down slow from upstate New York. Bulaga better get it together bc Mario is the type of end that gives him fits.
The rest of the D is a solid mix of vets who know how to play behind their solid front four. Safety Aaron Williams is another star, the other guys competent.
The Bills are still smarting from a close loss to Denver in which they totally got screwed by the refs.
It's a sellout in Buffalo and the fans and the players are licking their chops at a shot to show what kind of team they have.
Buffalo is looking to go 4-0 vs the NFC North.
Green Bay has never beaten the Bills in Buffalo (supposedly, I didn't check that).
We'll have to do some good against this defense, hopefully we can contain their iffy Offense & QB and scoop one up here.
If the Packers win, they see Seattle at home in playoffs.

Injury report
DNP: House (shoulder), Lattimore (ankle), Gaston (illness)
Limited: Lang (ankle), Lacy (hip), Perry (shoulder), Sitton (toe)
Bobby mused in his ratings column that Sitton was healthier than Lang (Josh has gotten better in game after injury faster than TJ), but the practice schedule seems to bely that logic.

McCarthy on House: More tests tomorrow and maybe Saturday. Still gathering information. Not sure about status for Sunday.

Burnett is having a "hell of a year," McCarthy said. Impressed by step he's taken. Making plays, command of defense.

The Bills have been giving up some yards on the ground lately. It would be a good time for Eddie to heal quickly.

A good, hard Lacy/Starks porn star double team pounding is in order for this game. Rodgers can audible out if they bunch the line, or PA until the cows come home.

You're right KY. Pack 0-5 all time in Buffalo.
Also, they've never won as the visiting team when Kyle Orton was the starting QB.
Check out who the QB was when the Packers 13-0 start was snapped in 2011. Yep, Orton.

Peyton Manning - 71.4

Thx Esoxx.
Heard that on Sports radio and I don't believe those kind of goofs half the time.
Orton can pass effectively, but you've got to heat him up, then he gets shook. Sammy Watkins is a baby superstar, hope he doesn't go all Julio Jones on us.
This victory could really set us up, I'd like a 2 game cushion going into the last one (counting my Tampa's before they are hatched).

"It depends on how the rest of the week goes," Lacy said, via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "I'm progressing still. But there's still some things that need to be figured out."

I was there the last time in 2006, for the Brett Favre constellation of errors game (another one?, you may ask).
Buffalo is the most primitive outpost in the NFL. Most of the fans have only recently begun to walk upright, and they expect you to understand their grunting language, and get pissed when you don't. The parking lot is gravel and they break up shipping pallets with sledgehammers and burn them in bonfires right next to their 20 year old pickup trucks. They don't give a *uck. One guy had a modified weedwhacker with a blender attachment and was serving margaritas, with just ice and tequila.
The stadium was designed by the same architect who built stonehenge, and it has just a few more working facilities (the beer spigot works, but the toilets don't so much).
The fans taking a leak in the men's room shout back and forth about Sabres rivalries, playoff wins over the Habs in '75, etc. etc. And they mean it. They really hate the other hockey teams.
Fans are outrageously drunk and tremendously obnoxious (but still not as vulgar as Philly fans). They don't like any fan of any other team at any time. At All. The field looks hard and forbidding and the fans next to the field have faces filled with malice, despair, and disease, as though you are walking through a leper colony.
I've never been in a tougher venue as a fan and can imagine nothing tougher than playing in that hell hole as a player. Even the deafening noise of domes is better, because it is uniformly loud, unlike Rich Stadium, where the pernicious pestilence of Bills fans is in full throat, the garrulous grunting of the fans like those of the hungry swarms of the undead.
