    There was a lot of yelling at the TV going on over here. Mostly on Viking's 3rd and 8.

    A verifiable shit show. I had to leave right after Nijman came into the game because my wife's car broke down. Sounds like I was the lucky one.

    There are so many duds. Jones dropped a pass and fumbled. Musgrave dropped a pass. I watched Myers whiff on a DT that was lined up LITERALLY in his face. Walker whiffed 2x after getting a TE chip to slow a guy down. Defense bent and bent and bent and then broke. I would say it wasn't their fault as we went 3 and out like first 5 possessions, but when you bleed them right into FG range its your fault. Love looked shell shocked. MiLF must have no confidence in him because series after series I see shotgun draw, 2 yards to Musgrave, send 3 out in routes and still have Love under pressure.

    Its actually so bad I can't put my finger on anything. OL ineptness, WR with no separation, penalties, and zone coverages that leave chunks of green that I could chip into from 100 yards and only risk hitting a WR. This weeks thread will be duds and bigger duds. Coaching, players, player aquisition? None of it looks adequate at this point. Oh well, I knew it would be a rough year, but I was hoping to have some things to feel positive about.

    Is the defense actually good? Not losing by 40 has to say something when the O can’t even get the chains to jingle a little.

    Absolutely not. Every drive by the opposing team is 10 plays or longer. The opposing team NEVER punts. We consider it great defense if we hold them to a FG.
    It's bottom 10 defense with young talent that isn't progressing... except Gary. Look at Alexander and Clark. Are they better than they were a year ago?
    7 games in, and I think the coaching is bad on both sides of the ball.

    What team are we undeniably better than? I haven't seen Carolina play, but we'll have a chance to see in a few weeks. We truly have a chance to get the 1st or 2nd pick in the draft.

    The only thing I'd bet on right now is that our first round pick won't progress.

    I’m just trying to find some light. Offense is dry, Matt Lafleur is more like Pepe LaPew. Thought M3 had came back skinny after having his stomach stapled. The way LaPew was staring into his playbook like it was a unknown menu seemed lost. Thought it would break out into a Snickers Want to Get Away commercial. The whole team is in disarray.

    Before today I thought the Packers looked like a young team losing close games. Today they just looked like a bad team.

    If Love had accuracy and football IQ of Tua or Purdy, he’d be all-pro.

    Not so. Many, many old fat drunk uncles have titties. But unlike MLF, they don’t have vaginas. So your uncle is still your uncle. But MLF might just have a puddy. His play calling is horrible.

    Now see, that's funny. I say the a slightly different version of the same saying -

    That really sucks for him and the Vikes. Never want to see that. He seems like a good dude.

    lambeau is about as good as you can get with natural grass (even though it has a weave)

    Different situation. Rodgers got his foot caught under him when he was squished. Cousins just had his snap without being hit. No field could prevent that. Just bad luck for the Vikings and Cousins. At least it wasn't nearly as bad as the last time a Viking QB was injured on a non-contact play. Doubly bad for Minn because they have already won too many games to get a top pick, plus they are likely to get another win the next time they play the Packers.
    Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

    And Imma channel my inner Tex here. Remember the Barr monstrous hit that broke Butte’s shoulder? The Queens celebrated afterwards as if they had just won the goddamn Super Bowl, and Queens fan jacked off to the the highlight of the hit nonstop while listening to “Purple Rain.”

    Fuck the Queens. May they rot in hell. As soon as I finish flipping burgers, Imma turn on the YouTube app on the cheap Walmart “smart” TV, watch the clip of Cletidius’ knockout punch of Cousins and jackoff to it while playing “Yellow” in the background.

    And posts like this are the reason I don't mind your obstinance on the salary cap.
