Official Packers thumping the Panthers Gameday Thread

[Rastak]

Good call.....man Peppers plastered him.

[Tony Oday]

That is tough...err dumb too

[Badgerinmaine]

Wow, what a dumb penalty on Peppers.

[TennesseePackerBacker]

Love the chest pump, looks like we have another tough SOB @ QB!

[Guiness]

that's going to be a penalty

Nasty hit. Unnessary roughness

[Noodle]

I bet ARod drew the penalty by calling Peppers a pussy.

Cagey vet move.

[Tony Oday]

Peppers is fined 25k for that.

[Freak Out]

Peppers should get thrown for that.

[Brando19]

Someone should bitch slap Peppers...Rodgers is tough.

[Cheesehead Craig]

BJack baby!!!!

[Badgerinmaine]

Dang, this game has been fun.

[gex]

A-rod is earning every penny today

[packer4life]

tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock

[Rastak]

GB is chewing up clock too.

[Partial]

This is the line they have to go with. This is the type of game MM has to continue to call. What an incredible second half!!

[gex]

OK Qb sneak now

[Noodle]

Nothing's going to be easy today.

Stopped for nothing.

Big 3rd down

[Cheesehead Craig]

Dam.

[Rastak]

Gotta kick it.

[Partial]

I run a play action bootleg here and hit donald lee on a crossing route. I simply can't see a midget like Beason being able to cover Lee in that situation.

[packers11]

Gotta kick it.

unfortuantly... dammit... good shot to punch it in...

[Cheesehead Craig]

Huge call here. I think I'd go for it.

[Badgerinmaine]

I agree with Rastak..gotta take the lead...but relying that much our d today is scary.

[Guiness]

This is the line they have to go with. This is the type of game MM has to continue to call. What an incredible second half!!

Have to agree Partial. These are the type of second half adjustments you want to see.

Mmm, stopped on 3 and goal? Didn't want to see the D have to close this one out.

[Noodle]

What do you do, folks?

I say go for it, play action, Arod to Lee for the TD over the middle.

[packer4life]

great...we need our D to win us another game...that didn't happen in tennessee and minnesota

[Badgerinmaine]

Carolina has only one time out left.

[TennesseePackerBacker]

Go for it, even if they stop you on the 1 you have three timeouts to work with.

[Cheesehead Craig]

5 WR spread the field, Rodgers with the keeper

[wist43]

wow, moronic play calls down there on 2nd and 3rd down...

just created a log jam in there... no chance. Stupid formations.

[Noodle]

Well, if me and Partial both are saying play action, then that's what we should do.

[TheCheese]

You have to kick the FG, thats why big Mac ran it 3 times in a row, he knew if he didnt get it he would run the clock and kick the FG with panthers only having one timeout.

[Rastak]

What do you do, folks?

I say go for it, play action, Arod to Lee for the TD over the middle.


Too far.......I would kick it.

[Cheesehead Craig]

All on the D now

[pack4to84]

kick it out of the endzone

[packers11]

will packers SPECIAL TEAMS PLEASE MAKE A PLAY NOW!!!

[packer4life]

very predictable...you need to get a little tricky sometimes and we never make that attempt...

[Tony Oday]

I hate losing by 4...

[Noodle]

OK, Mason, either kick a touchback, or kick it out of bounds and give it to them on the 35.

[Partial]

What do you do, folks?

I say go for it, play action, Arod to Lee for the TD over the middle.

:D my thoughts exactly! But, I'll take the 3 and hope the D holds them.

[packer4life]

I hate losing by 4... i hate going into OT with all the momentum and then they run it down our throats to win

[Brando19]

I don't have an awesome feeling about this....I hope our secondary is ready for Smith.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Wow, they missed a big hold on that return!

[TennesseePackerBacker]

If we lose im gonna be sick

[packers11]

FKING PATHETIC

[Badgerinmaine]

HAVE to work on the kickoff coverage. Not okay.

[Noodle]

MF!!!

MF!!!

Kick it out of bounds, dammit!!!

[Bretsky]

I'd have kicked it too

bad conditions

if only we could play specials

[Partial]

Lets go D. Time to earn your keep. Do or die!

Can't let down the O after they played their asses off in the second half.

[packer4life]

fuck, this is gonna be easy for them to tie it up

[Brando19]

Fire the entire Secondary....DAMN IT!!!!!!

[Freak Out]

Fucking local is still showing the Giants - Skins.

[TheCheese]

fuck our ST man, what the fuck

[Cheesehead Craig]

You gotta be kidding me.

[Guiness]

holy crap that was junk.

Who called for the out of bounds kick?

[Partial]

Brady Poppinga at DE. Fuck. Steve Smith is unreal.

[Rastak]

Holy Steve Smith!

[gex]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Badgerinmaine]

Unreal.

[The Gunshooter]

I thought Bush was a good special team player? Then dumb ass Chillar makes the tackle.

[TennesseePackerBacker]

there goes the season...

[Brando19]

Son of a bitch.....i told ya.

[Freak Out]

Sighhh......

[Badgerinmaine]

Boy, Rodgers may have to work some more magic here.

[packer4life]

big surprise we eff that up

[Badgerinmaine]

what's being reviewed?

[packer4life]

let em score, and let's go offense?

[Freak Out]

Best player for the Panthers and we can't stop him in that situation?

[Rastak]

Might be better for the Packers to have it on the foot line.

[Noodle]

holy crap that was junk.

Who called for the out of bounds kick?

That was me. And I wasn't kidding. Un-Friggin-believeable

[wist43]

have to go back to when they had the ball on the 1, and ran those moronic formations... incredibly stupid.

[The Gunshooter]

Woodson leg whipped him and that's why Smith fell.

[Noodle]

let em score, and let's go offense?

You been gettin advice from Holmgren?

[packer4life]

i dunno if i can watch another game this season...this is fucking piss poor

[Rastak]

let em score, and let's go offense?


Yea, I think you have to. Williams is a really strong runner.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Woodson has a rare defensive letdown. Just let them score MM.

[Fosco33]

So you are 2nd and goal from one and you go 2 runs for 0 yards. No play action, no rollout - both have worked before.

Then the refs blow a block in the back on like the 3rd or 4th huge kickoff return. And now this.

Typical of the season. Questionable play calls, refs making no calls, defense giving up huge plays.

UGLY.

[Rastak]

let em score, and let's go offense?

You been gettin advice from Holmgren?


You hold 'em twice then he scores, you lose.

I can see it either way.

[The Gunshooter]

have to go back to when they had the ball on the 1, and ran those moronic formations... incredibly stupid.

You either QB sneak or pass on second down. GB just can't reliably convert short yardage other than Rodger's sneak.

[Noodle]

have to go back to when they had the ball on the 1, and ran those moronic formations... incredibly stupid.

Doin' the radio thing -- what was wrong with the formations?

[The Gunshooter]

Let them score.

[jmbarnes101]

This really sucks but it was completely set-up by a horrible non-call by the refs on that kick return. There was a blatantly obvious holding that wasn't called or they would have been starting around the 20. The referees have been horrible all season long.

[Noodle]

let em score, and let's go offense?

You been gettin advice from Holmgren?


You hold 'em twice then he scores, you lose.

I can see it either way.

I agree with it. I agreed when Holmgren did it in the SB against Denver, too.

[Cheesehead Craig]

We don't need to let them score, they will score on their own

[wist43]

have to go back to when they had the ball on the 1, and ran those moronic formations... incredibly stupid.

You either QB sneak or pass on second down. GB just can't reliably convert short yardage other than Rodger's sneak.

Look at those formations... no room to operate... can't get a head of steam going, everybody in a phone booth... who ever drew up that formation is an idiot.

[DannoMac21]

Unbelievable.

[Partial]

Fucking D.

Alright A-Rod, lets hope you can work that magic again.

Nice by the Packer fan swatting the ball away from the Panther fan in the stands!!

[Cheesehead Craig]

How big was that damn fumble and TD just before the half now

[TheCheese]

we got plenty of time

[DannoMac21]

Pack would've won this game with Favre

[TennesseePackerBacker]

We're snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, nothing is going right for the Packers this year.

[packers11]

Why didn't woodson have help over the top?

[The Gunshooter]

What's funny is I can't remember the last time GB had a goaline stand but GB gets stuffed repeatedly.

[Noodle]

80 yard td drive coming up.

The legend begins today.

[gex]

Kid wearing the #20 jersey in the stand with the rejection. haha :lol:

[Partial]

I am really sick of them saying GB has dominated the second half. They have played phenomenally on offense sure, but the D and special teams have given up that same long pass to Smith twice now.

[Rastak]

Packers have 2 TO's remaining and Rodgers has the hot hand.

[Badgerinmaine]

Come on, A-Rod...

[TennesseePackerBacker]

They get 50 yard returns, we get 16 yard returns.

[Partial]

If I'm calling the plays, I'm going deep to Jennings on second down.

[jmbarnes101]

Why did he run that out???

[Noodle]

Another stellar ST performance on the return.

[packer4life]

insult to injury, we start inside the 20...sickening

[Fosco33]

O sucks the ref.

http://www.hostpic.biz/uploads/66f1ca5572.jpg (http://www.hostpic.biz)

[Badgerinmaine]

Pack would've won this game with Favre
please tell me you're joking

[Brando19]

End of our season...prepare for next year.

[The Gunshooter]

piece of shit choker

[Cheesehead Craig]

Just a stupid throw

[Partial]

Fuck. Dagger.

[Freak Out]

Game is finally on here......just in time to see the int.

[Brando19]

Favre like there.

[Badgerinmaine]

ouch.
ouch.
ouch.

[Bretsky]

Rodgers has a chance to win it

[Noodle]

I guess the legend will have to wait until next week to get started.

This one hurts.

[Rastak]

He did float it.

[Bretsky]

OH SHIT

[gex]

How Favresqe

[]{ilr]3]

Pack would've won this game with Favre
please tell me you're joking

The Packers would have won with the Jets O-line and D-line.

[Brando19]

Rodgers has a chance to win it

Or lose it.

[sheepshead]

Time to start discussing NEXT YEAR!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Just throw the damn slant and curl routes. Why are we calling for the deep throw?

[Freak Out]

Season? 9-7 might do it but it's hard to get there now.

[Badgerinmaine]

{ilr]3]

Pack would've won this game with Favre
please tell me you're joking

The Packers would have won with the Jets O-line and D-line.
:-)

[wist43]

kickin ass at 5-7

[Bretsky]

Just a stupid throw


yup

[Fosco33]

Season Over

We really should've won this game. Couple fumbles here/there, big defensive gaffs, HUGE difference in kickoff returns (163 to 74), bad no call by the ref on the last return.

Sickening.

[jmbarnes101]

Sanders, Shottenheimer, and Stock need to be fired immediately! The offense has played well enough to win at least the last two games but special teams and defense have been nothing short of abysmal almost all season long.

[Freak Out]

We should have a couple nice picks this draft. :lol:

[Rastak]

Didn't Harvey jinx this one with his early prediction?

[Bretsky]

{ilr]3]

Pack would've won this game with Favre
please tell me you're joking

The Packers would have won with the Jets O-line and D-line.


Maybe even their DC as well :lol:

[Brando19]

Time to start discussing NEXT YEAR!

No shit sherlock.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Unless Blackmon has a massive return this is over

[Fosco33]

O sucks the ref.

http://www.hostpic.biz/uploads/66f1ca5572.jpg (http://www.hostpic.biz)

Here's your game. Start at the 10 or start at the 40.

[Bretsky]

Didn't Harvey jinx this one with his early prediction?


It's definitely Harvey's fault; who wants to bump his thread :lol:

[Rastak]

I'd blast it out of the endzone or out of bounds. Blackman can be explosive.

[TheCheese]

Unless Blackmon has a massive return this is over

They will kick it out of bounds.

[Rastak]

Hmmm, the all out kick rush.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Or he won't even be in

[Cheesehead Craig]

Dumb rushing 11 on that one

[Fosco33]

Hmmm, the all out kick rush.

So you could've fare caught at the 30 or tried to block it. Whats the difference.

[TheCheese]

Second INT here?

[Rastak]

Hmmm, the all out kick rush.

So you could've fare caught at the 30 or tried to block it. Whats the difference.


I was thinking more of a return but it does make some sense if you think the punter will belt it out of bounds.

[Noodle]

Dumb rushing 11 on that one

The final act of ST stupidity in a game full of such moments.

[Guiness]

wow - what a roller coaster. With a nasty drop at the end... 8-(

[arcilite]

defense and special teams lose us another one.

at least we know what we need to do this offseason.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Dumb rushing 11 on that one

The final act of ST stupidity in a game full of such moments.

Blackmon could have fair caught it at the 25, saved us about 7 seconds and given us 2 plays. It's a longshot, but it's better than no shot.

[TheCheese]

This one fucking hurts man, we played so damn good in the second half but steve smith beat us by himself.

[Fosco33]

Damn, that stat hurts.

Imagine winning 2 of those 4 games. 7-5.
With some luck - 3 of 4. 8-4.

[Fosco33]

Pack gets the 'plaxico' for the game and the season to date.

[Fred's Slacks]

We'll we're finding new ways to lose. This time its kick coverage. I want to puke. Not getting the TD at the goal line was huge. Snapping the ball over the QB's head was also huge. All could have been overcome if we just had average kick coverage. Stock needs to go. We've kept so many guys because they are supposedly good on specials. Hunter, Pettaway, Bush, Hall, Kuhn, Peprah, yet carolina starts at mid field after every kick. What a joke.

[red]

Mike Stock............














FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GBRulz]

I was driving back from from visiting the family over Thanksgiving, but how come in the 2nd half I didn't hear Grant's name? Did he get hurt or something? I only saw the last qtr on TV and didn't hear anything...

[Noodle]

GB, Grant got hurt early. I think it was a hand or something. Not sure how serious it was. B-Jack got a hot run going, so I think they just decided to keep feeding the big dog.

[Joemailman]

Grant hurt his hand late in the 1st half.

[Bretsky]

the curse is alive

[Rastak]

Okay guys, heading down to the dome to watch the Vikes dismantle da Bears.


This game was interesting. I sure hope the Vikings game isn't as interesting if you know what I mean.


Later guys and gals.

good luck ras, have fun

[Tarlam!]

Thoroughly and utterly pissed off Pack fan here. I am appalled at what I saw. I simply cannot believe the drop off I am witnessing.

I am simply disgusted.

[Fosco33]

Kickoff Coverage Analysis

Start of the game (left to right) - below average
- Kick goes to 12, tripped up and falls to the 30

After 2nd Q FG (right to left) - poor
- Kick goes to the 3, Jones gets through the 2man wedge and gets pushed out at the 45 yard line.

After Driver TD in 2nd Q (right to left) - good
- Touchback

After 3rd Q FG (right to left) - good
- Touchback

After 3rd Q TD to tie game (right to left) - good
- Low liner, dropped by up man and driven out of bounds at 20

After 4th Q TD by Jennings (left to right) - poor
- One yard deep, good blocks, injury, 4 Packers on their asses, Finley missed tackle, Mason gets in the way and Bush finally catches Jones after a 50 yard return

After 4th Q FG (left to right) - poor
- Kick to goalline, missed block in back (I think Lee) and holding on Hall, missed tackle by Bush, Mason pushout after 45 yard return.

3 very poor coverage plays and one that was below average.

[Fritz]

Say, does anybody know how many games the Pack has lost this year after leading with, say, five or six minutes left in the game?

The special teams were atrocious. I agree with Fred's Slacks - we kept all these guys for ST cuz they were supposedly so good on ST, but the coverage keeps getting gashed up the middle.

Fire Stock at season's end, please.

And Why can't this defense hold a lead? Is it time to jettison Vanilla Bob?

[Bretsky]

I thought our last two drafts had such am emphasis on specials

I've found my new Fraud; I'd bet they keep Vanilla Bob around for longer but if they do it will be a tragedy

[Fritz]

Bretsky, you've been pounding the fire Vanilla Bob drum for awhile and it looks like you have new ammunition.

I'm definitely on the fire Stock bandwagon and am seriously considering joining the fire the Vanilla Bob train.

By my count, the Pack has lost 4 games in which they had a 4th quarter lead. That says all you need to know about the killer instinct of this defense. But while I'm at it... In the Packers last 3 losses, they have scored 27, 29 and 31 points. The defense hasn't even needed to be very good. They just needed to not be very terrible.

you hit on something i was also thinking

we did keep a lot of guys because they were better special teams players over guys that were better depth. so now our depth sucks, and our special teams sucks

i didn't like it then, when i thought we would have a good special teams, and i really hate it now

so there is absolutely no reason to keep jarrett bush on the roster, right?

[CaliforniaCheez]

The season was really over when the Packers failed to make the kick and win against the vikings.

Now the Packers have to find 2 or 3 DT's, an OT, an OG, an RB as well as the normal replacement to to attrition (Safety, DT(not redundant), CB, TE, Center).

I would not be suprised if the first round pick by Thompson is a MLB.

Surely, you cannot be suggesting that we deviate from the BPA strategy, can you? After all, thats the ONLY way to draft.

Besides we'll have 22 7th round picks to draft some positions of need. Never fear. Ted is here.
