Let's give it about 6 games to really see what we have resembling improvements we all might agree upon.
I am simply gratified that we defeated Seattle. Next one up ! Atlanta and another very tough out with a 'W'.

i'm with ya but let's tap the brakes a bit. sea's o sucks pretty bad. the atl o will tell us more.
studs: the entire d...no one played less than a good game. cobb, ty, jordy.
duds: mm's play calling. started and finished with short passing game working but totally got away from it in between time. during that time Rodgers was holding the ball too long, taking hits he didn't need to take, played into sea's strength.
Evans played well. He had trouble with Richardson, so does the whole league. He won more battles than he lost and Richardson had no sacks.
Brooks had one solo tackle before he went out with the concussion. Couldn't find a snap log on him, but somebody will dig that out.
I almost hate to complain about Troy and Buck, but God, they suck. There was no mention of Brooks play, his concussion when it happened, nothin'. At the end of the game, me and a knot of Packer fans were cheering our victory after the 2 minute warning. These luke warm Seattle fans were saying "It isn't over yet"! We had to explain to 'em that GB was just going to kneel out the win. Shouldn't Aikman and Buck have mumbled something about that so the audience would know what's happening?
Regarding the Biegel/Watt comparison, it would be a real stretch to say Biegel is better, considering the NFL start Watt has gotten off to. However, the last time both were healthy - Biegel's junior year, Biegel outplayed Watt. Probably Watt has improved a lot since then, but I'm still hopeful that Biegel will be a big timer. Look at Jalen Smith; The Cowboys risked a second round pick and waited a whole year for him. Possibly the Biegel situation is similar for the Packers.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
Winner: Me and my son. We don't have Sunday Ticket, and the Panthers are going to pre-empt the Game of the Week in North Carolina (possibly even SC), so we went to a local wing place, downed some delicious wings, and watched the Packer game with no sound, except from the Panther game.
Loser: The lack of offensive diversity in the first half. I wonder how many rushing attempts there were in the first half with 4 sacks and probably just as many pressures? The variety helped in the second half. Run right at those pass rushers!

Studs - The D, the offense looked ok considering who they were up against and who is calling the plays.
Duds - Special Teams minus Crosby and M3. What the fuck was he doing calling TO's at the end of the first half?

He said the defense was dominating (true) and he wanted to get the ball back. It just never seems to work when he does that though.Studs - The D, the offense looked ok considering who they were up against and who is calling the plays.

Also, we only had 2 timeouts. The best we could do was get the ball back with 15 seconds to go around mid-field with no timeouts. They should have let Seattle run out the clock.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

Depending on where they received the punt, they could have tried for a free kick. I was thinking that was the only possible outcome for points.
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
That quickly ran through my mind but we were kicking into the wind at that point.

no problem with the strategy but it never seems to work out for him.
Ya...I hear ya but it just seemed like it was time to let the clock run out and go to the locker room. The D had played great up to that point but shit....give them a rest.

I couldn't understand that either. Why in the hell would you give your opponent a TO at the end of the half? Who cares if you don't score. It would have been tied and you get the ball first after the half. smh Some of Stubby's time management leaves a lot to be desired.Studs - The D, the offense looked ok considering who they were up against and who is calling the plays.

Stubby defended the move at his presser. He would and will do it again. In fact, Sean Payton and Bellycheck The Great did the same thing in their games with the same results: https://www.totalpackers.com/2017/09...ment-concepts/ It's still a stupid move, no matter the company.
[Glad you dodged the hurricane bullet. We did too.]
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.

Davis might take it to the house.
Plan B - Hail Mary works every time.
Unfortunately Plan C cost 3 points after two big gainers by Seattle - probably the only 2 they had in the first half.
As yetisnowman (I think it was YSM) pointed out in the Game Day thread, M3 did not even have 3 TOs to stop the clock with. With only two, he might get one last play.
Anyone ask at press conference?
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Yes. MM defended the strategy. Said the defense was dominating, and he wanted to get the ball back. If you get the ball at midfield with :15, you do have a chance to complete a sideline pass to set up a long field goal. Both Nelson and Adams are pretty good at those. Interesting how many people here think MM was too aggressive when he could have let the clock run out.

I would be fine with the strategy if we had all 3 timeouts. I am fine when he has done that in the past with the other team backed up.
