Official Packers-Cardinals Playoff Thread

[BallHawk]

We're gonna score the most points.

[mission]

Ever!

[Joemailman]

This game is all about composure for the Packers. They're the better team. They just have to keep doing what they've done to get here. Stop the run. Pressure Warner. Protect Arod.

Arizona is gonna come out strong and we just have to punch them in the mouth and remind them that this isn't last year and you can't just turn it on. Once we overcome that initial burst of energy, I think we'll set the tone and wear them down. We're simply better.

[swede]

Where do you go to find out which crew will be officiating the game?

[gbgary]

well...it looks like it's going to be n.o. if we can beat these guys again.

[swede]

Where do you go to find out which crew will be officiating the game?

Found it. Scott Green's crew.

Does anyone know much about this crew?

Apparently he was involved in a controversial play in 2008 between the Steelers and the Chargers:


Steelers-Chargers game

by mickey on November 18, 2008

As it turns out, it WAS a touchdown for Troy Polamalu, but it’ll never show up that way in the history books. Fortunately, this error didn’t change the outcome of the game. However, it messed up a lot of gamblers and fantasy players, and could possibly affect the playoff picture under certain scenarios.

The problem is that if ANY forward pass touches the ground, the play is dead. The officials simply got confused about which pass was which.

The little flip pass from LaDanian Tomlinson to Chris Chambers was an illegal forward pass, but was handled cleanly by Chambers. When Chambers tried to lateral again, the ball hit the ground. However, because that pass went backwards, the ball was still live and it was legal for Polamalu to pick it up and score.

There still should have been a penalty on the Chargers for the illegal forward pass from Tomlinson, which the Steelers could decline so they could keep the touchdown. That’s what happened initially. After that, referee Scott Green changed his mind (got confused, etc) and things got a little weird.

I'm guessing it's a good thing that I don't know this referee's name.

Let somebody else have Ed Hotchili.

[Bretsky]

I've witnessed BH's Brewere threads in meaningful games; if they lose this one it's all on BH ! :lol:

[red]

is boldin in or out?

sounds like he's very doubtful right now, but that could be a smoke screen

Bolding will play; I had him in FF this year and the guy played some games this year when he could hardly cut off his ankle. At worst I bet he's out there as a decoy tomorrow

I just came back from visiting a Cards forum, most of their posters are whining and wringing their hands over tomorrow's game, Another poster said they're to expect at least 15,000 Packers fans tomorrow and that started them all over again. They're just sure GB is going to pour it on and win by a mile or four.

Well we are, aren't we? :D

[The Leaper]

The only thing that worries me is all the stinking love the media has thrown at us...if anything spells doom, it is the kisses received from media pundits.

The Packers are better than Arizona...but Arizona has a punchers chance if they can keep Warner upright. The whole key to this game for me is getting pressure up the middle in Warner's face. If we do that, we win solidly.

[swede]

We were in the NFC championship just two years ago. Was that the last hurrah of an old era or the early arrival of a new era?

Maybe both at once.

Today's game could be like the playoff game vs the 49ers in '95. A robust and confident performance leading to decisive victory will serve warning to the rest of the league, just as it did in '95: This wasn't just a good season for Green Bay. This is the beginning of a new football dynasty.

[swede]

Sorry.

Been up late drinking KoolAid with vodka.

[The Leaper]

This wasn't just a good season for Green Bay. This is the beginning of a new football dynasty.

I don't think our OL play puts us anywhere near dynasty just yet. We have a good young team...but most true dynasties revolve around a franchise QB behind a very good OL. In today's NFL, that is even more true considering the rules changes that have made the passing games so prolific and the tremendous number of high quality RB prospects coming out of college.

We don't have a very good OL yet...and we could stand to learn how to grab some of that young dynamic talent at RB.

JSO has some picks of a Packer Rally in Phoenix worth checking out!

I say we're up by three scores at half.

Go Pack

[pbmax]

Here you go. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to define the abbreviations. Green seems to call a good number of penalty yards. My first impression is that means Pass interference.

[MJZiggy]

In that case we may have a problem with illegal blocks in the back, and some holding. He's kinda average on pass interference and thank heavens low on offsides. Considering he's worked more games than a lot of the other officials, it's not horrible.

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

I hope we win today. Rodgers needs to keep proving people wrong and show he is among the best in the league. If Rodgers can play within himslef in the playoffs the sky is the limit for this team.

I've never seen a cardinal on my property until this morning ...

The teams that have won this weekend have looked amazing. In order, I'd probably go Baltimore, Dallas, Jets but they've all looked great.

Hopefully we're the 4th. There's been some physical football. I don't want to be on the wrong end of an ass kicking.

Jets may give Indy a game; in general I'm a believer in karma. The Jets kind of got the raw deal with the Favre thing so I'm happy they made the playoffs.

Indy's lack of effort and decision to gift wrap the game to the NY Jets when they could have knocked them out of the playoffs hopefully will bite them in the ass. Caldwellism ran wild the last two games at a time when they could have kept their positive momentum and set historical records.

Then, Cincy rested their starters vs. the Jets in the final week; didn't work too well for this week.

Ditto for the Cardinals last week. If GB comes out and punches the Cards in the sack today the logic of Caldwellism will have fallen twice already

Perhaps there is something to be said for keeping the momentum and peaking at playoffs :?:

To me Dallas has looked the best; the Ravens got off to a great start but Dallas looked dominant the entire game

INACTIVES

Packers: WR Patrick Williams, S Derrick Martin, CB Trevor Ford, FB Quinn Johnson, T Breno Giacomini, OT Allen Barbre, NT Anthony Toribio, DE Michael Montgomery.

Cardinals: WR Anquan Boldin, QB Brian St. Pierre, FB Nehemiah Broughton, S Rashad Johnson, LB Reggie Walker, G Herman Johnson, DE Jeremy Clark, TE Stephen Spach.

Q's out. That's huge, takes a load off our secondary.

I expected Quinn Johnson to play. Montgomery isn't dressing, that means J. Wynn is? 5DL. Seems like a tiny number.

[mission]

Funny (or not at all) how Barbre was our starting RT and now he's inactive. That's not injury related is it?

And Quinn Johnson being out tells me MM intends to throw it a bunch today.

I have learned a bit from MM. You throw as much as possible against a 3-4 and run as much as possible against a 4-3. I never realized this before MM was around. I always knew the tendency of a 3-4 to be better against the run, but I wasn't aware of just how big the difference was.

[red]

great news that boldin is out

they now have just 2 wr's, and we only have 2 cb's

this should limit the chances of bush being on fitz or breaston

My college roommates parents went do for the game. They put a mobile upload on facebook. Their entire section is in Green. He wrote that they all got out there at 11am our time for tailgating, all packer fans...as they walked in, all the cardinal fans showed up, right around 2:30 our time the stadium had green, and very little red.

[Joemailman]

The more physical team has won all 3 games this weekend. Knock 'em down and don't let 'em get up.

[The Leaper]

Gotta punch them in the mouth and make them realize last week and preseason wasn't some kind of dream. Take the air out of their fans, and let our defense go crazy.

GO PACK GO!

[Bretsky]

Here comes my shot at good karma per request

After GB fell to Tamps Bay Bretsky came out with an iron clad guarantee that we beat Dallas and go to 7-4. Some were worried about the curse but da Snake noted the double guarantee broke the curse. Had the feeling they would bring it against Dallas and then 7-4 was a given.

Green Bay is the better team; Arizona played Caldwellism last week and hardly played their starters and the curse hit them hard with Boldin hurt and out today.

Green Bay is on a roll
Green Bay has a better ofense; Green Bay has a better defense.
We must hit Warner and hit him often. Bretsky thinks we will hit Warner often. No excuses today; it's one and done or we go home unhappy.

Thank Goodness we were going to war with the Dominator as opposed to Vanilla Bob

The Dominator will have this team ready; our offense should put up 30. Arizona will need to put up over 30 to win.

Don't see it happening.

Bretsky feels good today; Bretsky guarantees a Packer Victory. 34-27 sounds good.

Take it to the Bank

Pack is headed to Mardi Gras world next week

[packrulz]

It's official : Pam Oliver has hit the 200 pound mark.
I still think she's hot.

RUN THE FUCKING BALL MM

Not much pressure on Warner on the first throw...got to do better than that

Cards draw first blood. We neeeeeeed to score quick.

dam; so far the defense has been non existant

No pressure on Warner = loss.

bank it.

And hopefully Williams does a lil better handling their backup WR's

jordy is worthless returning kicks

too slow, no moves

ffs........... :roll:

[mission]

this is a nightmare

fuck us, we're done

FUCK!

Hold on to the Fucking Ball!!!

[The Leaper]

game over...it was nice to be here. Cardinals are the team that wants to win.

[Bretsky]

f'ckin ridiculous
f'ckin ridiculous

[red]

Fucking cover SOmeonE

what the fuck are we doing on D?

[The Leaper]

I knew I wanted no part of the Cardinals.

[Jimx29]

glad they rested their starters last week


they are who we didn't think they are

[Bretsky]

I can't even tell who f'cked up on that one because nobody was dam close to the play

[ThunderDan]

glad they rested their starters last week


they were who we didn't think they are

Only until page 7 before a shot at the coach or TT!! HMmm...

[Brando19]

This is leaving me scratching my head. Is Vanilla Bob up there in the booth instead of Dom? What is going on out there??!?!?!?!

[red]

its amazing how a coach can quit one week, lay down and have his team not even try to win

then somehow turn that into a way to fire up his team

mm can't get his team fired up for any game with any meaning

[ND72]

holy hell ladies and gents...this is gonna be something.

and what the FUCK is Jordy Nelson doing?

[red]

get jordy out of there

[The Leaper]

This isn't Jordy's fault...

There are five red jerseys coming at him unblocked.

[Bretsky]

watching these shit returns is another reminder of how nice DeSean Jackson would look good in Green n Gold instead of Nelson

[ThunderDan]

15 yards for that. Holy tick-tac.

[Brando19]

Ahman needs in at Kick returns right now.

[The Leaper]

watching these shit returns is another reminder of how nice DeSean Jackson would look good in Green n Gold instead of Nelson

Yeah we need a returner...

But we also need to match the other team's intensity...or it doesn't mean a damn thing.

[red]

I can't even tell who f'cked up on that one because nobody was dam close to the play

they mentioned bush in the replay

i think we can lay the blame on him, theres like a 90% chance he screwed up something

[KYPack]

Brilliant play by Giordano on the kick-off.

[The Leaper]

Once again...Ryan Grant goes down easily on first contact.

He is so mediocre.

[Jimx29]

glad they rested their starters last week


they were who we didn't think they are

Only until page 7 before a shot at the coach or TT!! HMmm...MM is the uncontrollable wild card that all the talent on our team cannot overcome.
That's been my standing all season long.

[Guiness]

kinda early to stick a fork in them, but this is a heck of a 1st quarter hole to climb out of!

he had him in man and abandonded his coverage for some reason.

Bush or Bigby seemed the most likely; don't think it was Bigby. Was too far away even for him

[ThunderDan]

Brilliant play by Giordano on the kick-off.

I've seen worse in a soccer game not called.

[packrulz]

Calm down guys, it's early yet.

[Packers4Glory]

so. yeah. looks like the games already over before it really started. way to come out flat as shit. I figured a M3 coached team would come out flat and suck.

[ND72]

Calm down guys, it's early yet.


I'm all about that...but Arizona hasn't done anything yet, which scares me more.

LOL

we can't even get rid of the ball without fucking up

[wist43]

It's early... but, the Packers didn't come to play.

Capers brought his "pussy defense"... unless he makes changes 2 series ago - this game is already over.

Warner will just sit back and hit open receivers all day...

[Brohm]

Must stop for the D or this game is over in the 1st Q.

[packrulz]

The defense needs to get us back in it.

[wist43]

$100 says Capers can't figure out there's a guy in slot :lol:

[The Leaper]

Even Arizona wants the fumbles more than we do.

[Jimx29]

come on "coach" coach your guys......

[red]

we have to get on the ball when it comes lose

gotta capitalize on those, they are

[wist43]

Yeah, this game looks over already...

[Packers4Glory]

blowout city

[Jimx29]

Calm down guys, it's early yet.Now can we worry ??

[gex]

1 and done. :(

[red]

wow, come on collins

[The Leaper]

Wow...we continue to rush 4 and expect what? Warner to fall down and not have the little button for elderly people to call for help?

[Kiwon]

We can't stop anybody.

[Brohm]

Yep this is over. D is toast.

[red]

this is what happens when you have the youngest team in the nfl, with barely any vet leadership and no coaching

we look like we've never played the game before

[digitaldean]

Very sorry performance early on.

Cardinals came out jacked up to play. We have no focus on either side of the ball.

[red]

so much for trying to stay sober for this one

[wist43]

Capers will do this the the entire first half...

When he has a game plan... he won't come off it til at least half time, "this should be working" :lol:

[gex]

Well we always have Favre to root for next week! :lol:

[wist43]

We have to score every possession from here on out to even have a chance... any more turnovers/punts - we won't be able to keep pace.

[red]

hey they did us a huge favor and didn't kick to jordy

[The Leaper]

This team clearly gets full of itself and over confident...Rodgers admitted as much happened early in the year. Seeing that Jennings said "I feel like we have this team's number" is the most ridiculous thing I've seen. What a dumb thing to say after winning a couple meaningless games.

McCarthy has little control over the mentality of these players...and it shows.

[wist43]

If Arizona keeps the peddle to the metal... they could score 50+

[KYPack]

Would one of you lads mind stopping by my place and shooting me?

[wist43]

screw the run at this point...

have to keep the ball by throwing for 1st downs...

Another punt simply = more pts for the bad guys...

[Brando19]

Well we always have the Vikings to root for next week! :lol:

Fixed...and get that crap outta here.

[wist43]

hey, we don't have to give the more pts for the time being :lol:

[digitaldean]

Alright, at least SOMETHING positive.

[Packers4Ever]

Cards draw first blood. We neeeeeeed to score quick.



I'm in the kitchen now.

Don't like what I'm SEEING !!! :evil:

[red]

maybe MM should bitch after the game that arizona tried to hard today while we were just gonna take it easy

[Brando19]

TD coming here, guys.

[wist43]

A play fake, play action, roll out...

means nothing to the defense... coz they aren't respecting the run...

gonna have to make em pay thru the air...

[Brohm]

><

[gex]

GAME OVER!

[red]

go for it you fat pussy

what do you have to lose at this point?

[ND72]

Rodgers has happy feet. Not at all comfy.

[Brando19]

A tried Field Goal??? Fire MM right now damn it.

[Brohm]

Crosby from 52 - No good.

[red]

wHAT THE FUCK WAS THE POINT OF THAT?

[KYPack]

Sheezus.

Should we be trying long FG's?

[Freak Out]

M3 has lost his mind.

[MOBB DEEP]

im going to the gym.... :evil:

[wist43]

OMG!!!! :lol:

2nd and 13... they're getting blown out... and M3 thinks he can sneak Jackson thru the middle????

WOW!!!! :lol:

[Brando19]

Sheezus.

Should we be trying long FG's?

At this point, should we be trying FG's!?!?!?

[green_bowl_packer]

Would one of you lads mind stopping by my place and shooting me?

After I get my head out of the oven!!!

[red]

M3 has lost his mind.

he never had one, i honestly don't think we can win it all with him as the coach

[Packers4Glory]

hey that 52 yd try was a lot closer to being good than his tries from inside of 40 yards. maybe we need to move it back a few yards and he'll make em.

[wist43]

This team isn't ready to play...

That's on MM and Capers... awful preperation, game plan...

[ND72]

This is why I do not like Mike McCarthy. We're down 17, McCarthy wants to obviously get some momentum for us...so we try to kick a field goal with a kid who can't make a fucking field goal. instead, we give it to them at mid field, down 17. Go team.

[gex]

wHAT A FUCKING JOKE!
iM OUTTA HERE 8-)

[Brando19]

At this point...couldn't Warner just start doing QB kneels?

[MOBB DEEP]

Rodgers has happy feet. Not at all comfy.

need favre

[Jimx29]

deer in the headlights.
I guess I should of stayed on the lake till after gametime

[Brohm]

Still no desire to mount a pass rush.

[Brando19]

Game over.....this Packer team can kiss my ass until they fire MM.

[wist43]

This is one and done...

The turnovers are one thing... but M3 is going to "prove" he's "cool under pressure" or something???

If a guy punches ya in the mouth... you better punch him back!!!!

And Capers... as I said during the week, if he comes out in his "pussy defense"... we really don't stand much of chance anyway.

[gex]

Rodgers has happy feet. Not at all comfy.

need favre
TRUE DAT
LOL
:lol:

[retailguy]

hell of a missed tackle by BIGBY. Jeez.

enjoying the game?

[Brohm]

Fuck it, now they've just packed it in.

[ND72]

and the one mother fucking time Dumb ass should have thrown the challenge flag, he doesn't.

[Deputy Nutz]

Och!

Dumb to go for the field goal. Make Arizona go the distance.

Chillar, Bush, Williams, Bigby are all morons in coverage.

Capers doesn't look so smart today.

[Packers4Glory]

my only question at this point is at what point do I shut this horse shit off?

[digitaldean]

Wow, stick a fork in this defense....

Thoroughly stunned at how ill-prepared and wretched they are performing.

They're reverting back to the TB game.

[Brando19]

FINALLY! Matthews is here to play.

[green_bowl_packer]

A FUCKING PULSE!!!!!!!

[red]

woodson and mathews, the only two players that have shown up today

and now it pays off

[digitaldean]

At last a TURNOVER !!!!

[KYPack]

Sweet Jesus, we finally got a freakin' break.

[red]

horse collar

come on guys, take everything they'll give us

[MOBB DEEP]

skirt call, pack lucky

[Deputy Nutz]

Another thing, Jordy Nelson looks like a confused retard that just shit his pants when returning kickoffs.

[red]

piss off troy, suck my ass

[Bretsky]

I have several thoughts

Aaron Rodgers, pull your dam head out of your asshole before it's too late.
Missed a wide open Jennings for a TD
Missed badly on last pass over Jones head; cost us 10 points

Somebody needs to step up their game

Why did MM not challenge that ? Packers are clearly not ready to play

still time though; I'm done venting

[KYPack]

and the one mother fucking time Dumb ass should have thrown the challenge flag, he doesn't.

We might wanna challenge this whole game and start over.

[digitaldean]

If we can get this ball in, there's still a sliver of hope...

[The Leaper]

Gotta get a TD here.

Amazing. Grant broke a tackle!

[red]

nice hard run by grant, we're finally starting to get into the game

[wist43]

Truthfully... I had a little bit of hope going into this one...

:(

[The Leaper]

If we can get this ball in, there's still a sliver of hope...

Sliver being the key word. The defense is leaving receivers wide open down field.

[retailguy]

cardinals are ready to play. holy crap. they're pissed and playing that way.

[MOBB DEEP]

POCKET AWARENESS!

[Packers4Glory]

sack sack sack

bullshit.

i am not comfortable w/ a FG try even on this part of the field

[Jimx29]

man....arod has lost his pocket presence again....

[Deputy Nutz]

Rodgers throws one pick, and now he is afraid to throw the fucking football down field. Sacked three times already

Nice PI penalty

[red]

watching all the games this weekend, no one has as little time to throw the ball as rodgers, its pathetic

first and goal at the one. come on now

[retailguy]

Truthfully... I had a little bit of hope going into this one...

:(

this game worried me more than any other. last week made that worse for me.

[wist43]

Got lucky there...

Tell me why???

You've got a walking mismatch out there... Findley in single coverage. Rodgers doesn't even know he's alive...

[Brohm]

Penalties working for us for a change. Unfortunatley the red zone deficiencies also rearing their head.

[digitaldean]

Yes, Cards are playing angry. It's easy to have the US vs. THE WORLD mentality when every pundit in the world said the Packers are going to roll the Cards.

Any team with enough bulletin board material the press gave AZ this should come out fired up.

[Packers4Glory]

keep running. got 3 more chances.

[retailguy]

watching all the games this weekend, no one has as little time to throw the ball as rodgers, its pathetic

first and goal at the one. come on now

wait, everyone said the line was improved, what happened?

[green_bowl_packer]

assuming we can score from the one and ST doesn't give a big return we can fix field position situation.

[Kiwon]

FINALLY.....some points.

[gex]

Ok now
we can still pull this one off
hang in there

[Packers4Glory]

how bout we spread out on the goal line? why do we always bunch up?

[digitaldean]

4 down territory, pure and simple.

[wist43]

I hate that FB dive - HATE IT!!!!

Rip it out of the playbook...

[red]

give the ball to jolly

[Kiwon]

FINALLY.....some points.

Hopefully.......

[retailguy]

i tried to say this mid week, got laughed at and called a negative nancy. kool aid was flowing strong and no one wanted to see reality.

[Bretsky]

Run the dam ball in

[wist43]

With the FB dive... it's either there, or it's not.

No plan B, no ability for runner to cut it up, break it out... awful play call.

[red]

alright

we got a pulse
