The official Packers VS Redskins game day thread!

[Tony Oday]

JJ!!!

[pbmax]

Holy cow. Two QBs the Packers have had in a row that can move and throw like they are in the pocket.

[ThunderDan]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.

[The Leaper]

Bryan with a penalty. Is that four? Not a good start. But he's a rookie.

Give the kid a break...he has mostly stoned his assignment 1v1 to this point. Tauscher won't see the field again even when he's back to 100%.

[Mr. T]

So... 3 FB's, 1 that can play TB, and 4 TE's, 2 that can play wing/FB.... Not looking like such a bad idea....

[pbmax]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!

thanks

thanks

[gbgary]

o is playing well...running game included. the d hasn't been too shabby either.

[ThunderDan]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!

Pancake on a pass block.

[imscott72]

No pass rush at all from the Skins. I have to wonder if it's because their front 4 is that bad or does Bulaga stabilize the line that much?

[retailguy]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!


he's good for one block a game....

[gbgary]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!

you guys watch the o-line too much. :)

[Tony Oday]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!

you guys watch the o-line too much. :)

Whats an o-line?

[imscott72]

Great block by Colledge on that throw.
Bet you didn't think you would ever write that!

you guys watch the o-line too much. :)

Have to. That's where it all starts.. :wink:

[Tony Oday]

JJ!!!

[Tony Oday]

GO PACK GO!

[The Leaper]

Give it to Kuhn...not Rodgers

[wist43]

Is it me??? or was that a TD... sure looked like Nelson stayed in.

Talk about McCarthy and challenges... I would have challenged that one.

[imscott72]

GO FOR IT

[pbmax]

Less than good execution on sneak.

[Tony Oday]

WTF!!! KUHN MM KUHN!!!

[gbgary]

play action roll-out

[pbmax]

Is it me??? or was that a TD... sure looked like Nelson stayed in.

Talk about McCarthy and challenges... I would have challenged that one.
Unless his foot was out of bounds, I thought he was in.

[Fritz]

If you were going to go for it on 4th, what was wrong with the play action? fake the handoff to Kuhn, look for Driver or Jennings or a tight end?

Weird playcalling.

I think I'd kick the field goal here.

[The Leaper]

WTF!!! KUHN MM KUHN!!!

I'm telling you...McCarthy is a bona-fide doofus. I know he had a learning curve as a first time head coach...but by this point, he shouldn't be making dumb decisions like this.

[Bretsky]

gotta do play action roll out; heck I might even kick and go up 10-0

[pbmax]

If you were going to go for it on 4th, what was wrong with the play action? fake the handoff to Kuhn, look for Driver or Jennings or a tight end?

Weird playcalling.

I think I'd kick the field goal here.
Yes.

[Mr. T]

Jumbo time!

Crabtree and Hall lead blocking for Kuhn! Come on! I started Kuhn this week!

[wist43]

Went back and looked at it very closely...

NELSON SCORED!!!!

[The Leaper]

I think I'd kick the field goal here.

I agree...on the road, you don't tempt fate. We have all the momentum...don't screw it up.

[imscott72]

WTF!!! KUHN MM KUHN!!!

I'm telling you...McCarthy is a bona-fide doofus. I know he had a learning curve as a first time head coach...but by this point, he shouldn't be making dumb decisions like this.

I liked the sneak call there. Wish we had #88 in there right now..

[Mr. T]

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

[Tony Oday]

Quarless you HAVE to get contact on that....

[The Leaper]

MCCARTHY IS A FAT, DUMB MFer

[pbmax]

That would have been OK with Finley, but not Quarless.

[imscott72]

Great stand by the Skins..smelled out the PA pass..

[Bretsky]

Green Bay; Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory

Shoulda kicked it

[Fritz]

That was a dumb call. That was the third down call.

They knew the Pack was going to pass. Holy cow.

[wist43]

McCarthy is a moron...

Challenge in situations where you can't possibly win, and then spit on a challenge where a TD is at stake, and it would have been ruled a TD.

What an idiot!!!

[Mr. T]

4th and inches! Line up the bulls and run!

[gbgary]

like i said...should go for the fg. :oops:

[retailguy]

That would have been OK with Finley, but not Quarless.

you gotta let the young guys play. that's the way it works...

[wist43]

like i said...should go for the fg. :oops:

No, challenge the ruling and Nelson's play... and kick the extra point!!!

Am I missing something here, lol...

[pbmax]

Yep. Needed the FG.

[mmmdk]

Finley would catch that...Q fine but Fin is awesome :(

[ThunderDan]

Q has got to stop and make the D player run into him for the PI.

[Tarlam!]

Kick early, go for it late. And why in God's name do you risk you're biggest asset on a QB sneak?

[The Leaper]

McCarthy is a moron...

Challenge in situations where you can't possibly win, and then spit on a challenge where a TD is at stake, and it would have been ruled a TD.

What an idiot!!!

I'm 100% with you on this one wist...I've lost pretty much all respect for McCarthy as a head coach at this point. He's a pitiful joke who gets by because the roster is so talented. Can't make the right call on a challenge EVER. Can't recognize our special teams coach needed to be fired over a year ago. He just is NOT a good head coach.

[ThunderDan]

like i said...should go for the fg. :oops:

No, challenge the ruling and Nelson's play... and kick the extra point!!!

Am I missing something here, lol...

I thought he was in also.

[pbmax]

Actually 95 made that play impossible because of pressure. Throw wasn't high or deep enough.

[gbgary]

hold much?

[Tarlam!]

How is that NOT a HOLD on CMIII???????????

[wist43]

Nelson scored...

It is only still 7-0 b/c McCarthy is challenge-challenged...

Has to be the worst coach in NFL history at challenges, or lack thereof...

[The Leaper]

McCarthy = Wade Phillips

That is a serious good comparison IMO. Neither coach can get a team over the top, regardless of talent.

[Tony Oday]

Nelson scored...

It is only still 7-0 b/c McCarthy is challenge-challenged...

Has to be the worst coach in NFL history at challenges, or lack thereof...

Childress.

[gbgary]

dang it

[pbmax]

Guess who blew that coverage.

[imscott72]

CLAYMAKER!

[retailguy]

Nelson scored...

It is only still 7-0 b/c McCarthy is challenge-challenged...

Has to be the worst coach in NFL history at challenges, or lack thereof...

I went back and looked at it 3 times wist. His foot was out at the 3... the second time.

But I agree about McCarthy. It's still true.

[Tony Oday]

Wow Neal, Raji and CMIII

[Mr. T]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

[gbgary]

Guess who blew that coverage.

he's been pretty darn good overall though. not disappointed in him at all.

[pbmax]

Guess who blew that coverage.
Bishop was totally transfixed by the backfield action.

[retailguy]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

on the field too long though... will be gassed in 4th. at this pace.

[mmmdk]

Slashed by a Claymore :D

[imscott72]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

They sure are. TWILL!!!!!

[Tony Oday]

Fire the ST coach!!!!

[gbgary]

and then there's his punt returning.

[billy_oliver880]

TRAMON "PI" WILLIAMS!!!!

[Mr. T]

Yeah, O needs to hold on to the ball. Run!

[PackerTimer]

The defense is playing pretty solid.

Hopefully the O can capitalize and get us a nice lead here.

[mmmdk]

Hawk can't tackle :x got lucky!

[Badgerinmaine]

Wow! I'd been forgetting what a good Packer punt return looked like. :-)

[The Leaper]

I went back and looked at it 3 times wist. His foot was out at the 3... the second time.

But I agree about McCarthy. It's still true.

Yeah, I'm not as upset that he didn't challenge there...mostly, I don't think you challenge on any play where you are already 1st and goal inside the 5 unless it is OBVIOUS you scored. That wasn't obvious to me.

[gex]

Nice return!! :D

[mmmdk]

Tramon is a probowl CB & does returns too :D

[The Leaper]

Who woke up the Giants?

[Tony Oday]

Damn you Vonnie retire already!!!

[Mr. T]

Vonnie Holliday?! He's still around?

[The Leaper]

Dominating this game and only up 7-0...sigh

[Mr. T]

Elton John:

"Hold me closer Tiny Dancer."

[gbgary]

jennings was wide open. ouch

[imscott72]

Who woke up the Giants?

Houston defense might be the worst in history..

[The Leaper]

C'mon Rodgers...throw that ball away and keep the FG manageable.

[Tony Oday]

Coverage sack

[Tony Oday]

Crosby!!!!

[imscott72]

MASE IS $$$$$!!

[gbgary]

3

[PackerTimer]

Crosby is money this year. Nice!

[Badgerinmaine]

Yes! Crosby still has the big leg.

[Mr. T]

Wow, guess MC got his game back.

[ThunderDan]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

[gbgary]

Who woke up the Giants?

Houston defense might be the worst in history..

thought they were supposed to be pretty good coming into the season.

[The Leaper]

Me still love me some Crosby...

Still think all those claiming we NEEDED to get another kicker in preseason to contend for the job were crazy wrong. Crosby better be in GB for 15 years.

[Mr. T]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

[TravisWilliams23]

jennings was wide open. ouch

Yeah, another missed opportunity for 6.

[hawaii50]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

on the field too long though... will be gassed in 4th. at this pace.

you talking about the packers d?? not exactly sure but i think we're killing them on time of possession. Our defense hasn't been on the field that long...

[mmmdk]

Who woke up the Giants?

Harry Potter :lol:

[ThunderDan]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

You forgot aging declining veteran talent.

[MadtownPacker]

Dominating this game and only up 7-0...sighThis is a huge concern for sure. How the hell is the game only 10-0? Should be 17-0 at the least.

[ThunderDan]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

on the field too long though... will be gassed in 4th. at this pace.

you talking about the packers d?? not exactly sure but i think we're killing them on time of possession. Our defense hasn't been on the field that long...

14 minutes to 8 in favor of the Pack.

[Badgerinmaine]

Dominating this game and only up 7-0...sighThis is a huge concern for sure. How the hell is the game only 10-0? Should be 17-0 at the least.
Agreed...it feels like the kind of game where things come back to bite in the second half.

[ThunderDan]

Wow, a limping defense playing heroic thus far.

on the field too long though... will be gassed in 4th. at this pace.

you talking about the packers d?? not exactly sure but i think we're killing them on time of possession. Our defense hasn't been on the field that long...

14 minutes to 8 in favor of the Pack.

Need to rest the D for the 2nd half.

[gbgary]

MR MATTHEWS

[Tony Oday]

CMIII

[imscott72]

my God Clay is a monster..

[Tony Oday]

WOW that dude went from 0 to 90 in a step

[Packgator]

my God Clay is a monster..

Sure looked fast!!

[Tony Oday]

Peprah=upgrade?

[mmmdk]

Dominating this game and only up 7-0...sighThis is a huge concern for sure. How the hell is the game only 10-0? Should be 17-0 at the least.

Second half adjustments will do the job :wink:

[gbgary]

nothing wrong with woodson's shoulder. did you see that fist pump?! lol

[PackerTimer]

Man our banged up D is playing solid. Valient effort so far.

[PackerTimer]

Come on offense. Give us a three score cushion here.

[Fritz]

Wow..the screen is working for them, even though they didn't get that first.

Now..how about a long Packer offensive drive. Mix the run and pass. Score a TD.

[gbgary]

need to get a td here.

[The Leaper]

Packer defense is playing well...but Redskin offense looks very mediocre.

Let's put up 7 more and make it a big lead going into halftime.

[Tony Oday]

DD???

[Fritz]

DD gets the drops.

[The Leaper]

Driver has had a few drops today...not like him.

[mmmdk]

my God Clay is a monster..

Sure looked fast!!

McNabb actually slimmer this season; Matthews is incredible :D

[gbgary]

ar...run and take the easy yards.

[Fritz]

Rodgers had a wide open field. Twenty yards maybe.

[PackerTimer]

Well that's not what we were looking for.

[imscott72]

f'ing Jones catch the f'ing ball!!

[Fritz]

No pealties on Green Bay on that? Wow.

Why didn't they show the replay of the Jones miss? Was it that bad of a throw? Was it a ball Jones shoulda caught?

[The Leaper]

ar...run and take the easy yards.

I agree...gotta know the situation. 2nd and long late in the half...take the sure 6-8 yards (maybe more) and make it at least a manageable 3rd down to ensure the drive stays alive.

[Tony Oday]

did your feeds just go SD?

[mmmdk]

AR & JJ! That was sloppy and not on McStubby.

[pasquale]

did your feeds just go SD?

sure did

[The Leaper]

Woodson has more than a few dumb penalties this year...hands to the face should rarely happen, but I think that's at least the 2nd time already this year for Woodson, maybe the 3rd.

[mmmdk]

Lost feed... :shock:

[gbgary]

really good pressure by the d-line today

[billy_oliver880]

MR AUGUST

[Tony Oday]

GO MR AUGUST!!!!!

[Badgerinmaine]

Sounds like there are a heck of a lot of Packers fans at FedEx Field today.

[Bretsky]

TRUMP THAT BISHOP

[gbgary]

how many sacks is that today so far?

[PackerTimer]

Mr. August welcome to October.

[The Leaper]

Well, Bishop looks all world when he gets a free run at the QB...if that keeps happening, we won't miss Barnett. lol

[ThunderDan]

I love Dom and his blitzes from anywhere.

[mmmdk]

Wuz happening?

Tell!

[Mr. T]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

You forgot aging declining veteran talent.

Your argument is ridiculous! Look what it's done for the Skins!

[Tony Oday]

damn it

[PackerTimer]

Well that sucks.

[Fritz]

How the hell did he get by the defense?

Stoopid.

[Bretsky]

wow; they could score a TD here and after dominating the first half we could end up near even

[gbgary]

dammit clay almost had at the one on that play.

[imscott72]

Well that sucked..

[The Leaper]

That's why the 10-0 lead is disheartening. Thanks McCarthy for screwing us over AGAIN.

[Fritz]

It's gonna be like the Chicago game. You work your ass off for a ten point lead, then play stoopid and it's tight.

[gbgary]

How the hell did he get by the defense?

Stoopid.

broken play

[mmmdk]

Got feed back - 3rd & 18 :shock:

[Bretsky]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

You forgot aging declining veteran talent.

Your argument is ridiculous! Look what it's done for the Skins!

goes both ways

That aging veteran talent the Saints brought in the past two years killed them last year as well.

[The Leaper]

Can't fault the defense much there...almost got McNabb sacked, just missed and Moss finally got open after 8 seconds.

[ND72]

Charlie Peprah has one guy in his area, and he watches mcnabb...right there is why he isn't a long term replacement.

[Tarlam!]

Charlie Peprah has one guy in his area, and he watches mcnabb...right there is why he isn't a long term replacement.

Na that's not what happened. You try and keep Moss from seperating for 8 seconds. McNabb had too much time.

[Fritz]

This team works so hard to get up by ten, then one play...and bam.

Lee makes a play?

[retailguy]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

You forgot aging declining veteran talent.

Geez Bretsky, way to quash their fun. They were feeling so damn smart and you had to go screw it up... :twisted:

[gbgary]

hold them to 3 here Pack!

[Bretsky]

good hard clean tackle on Bishop

[The Leaper]

gotta hold them to 3 here

[Tarlam!]

Make another stop Pack!

[Fritz]

They're lucky McNabb can't be accurate

[Bretsky]

dang.......................lots of numbers out there we are not use to seeing

they are playing well

[gbgary]

clay's going to be going against a back up now.

[imscott72]

Wow, you mean other teams get players hurt too? :roll:

[ND72]

Charlie Peprah has one guy in his area, and he watches mcnabb...right there is why he isn't a long term replacement.

Na that's not what happened. You try and keep Moss from seperating for 8 seconds. McNabb had too much time.


Yah, that is what happened...if you have DVR rewind...Peprah was running with him, then he took 2 steps forward as if he thought McNabb was going to run, and Moss seperated upfield.

[retailguy]

dang.......................lots of numbers out there we are not use to seeing

they are playing well

it's been good so far. very surprising. but good.

[The Leaper]

They're lucky McNabb can't be accurate

Wasn't accuracy...McNabb is getting tentative in the pocket since we are all over him.

Threw it too soon and had to toss it over a defender.

[mmmdk]

Wow - Brandon Lloyd :shock:

[gbgary]

way to go D!!

[Fritz]

Whew. They held them to a FG. So at least the Pack can go in up by seven.

I'll take it.

[ThunderDan]

Might get a FG now!

[The Leaper]

Wow...we actually have a chance to get in FG range here.

[Bretsky]

THROW AN OUT AND LET HIM KICK A SIXTY YARDER

[Fritz]

What the hell?

[The Leaper]

What the hell? What is 8 yards going to do for you?

[The Leaper]

McCarthy still = dumb

[ND72]

what the hell is McCarthy doing?

Moments like these, aka, time management, just piss me off about McCarthy. I mean seriously, what the hell was that?

[imscott72]

Finley's wife just tweeted she talked to Jerm, and he said he'd be back soon..Not sure if that means today or what..

[ND72]

Clay could have about 5 sacks right now if not for penalty or whatever else.

[mmmdk]

Finley's wife just tweeted she talked to Jerm, and he said he'd be back soon..Not sure if that means today or what..

YEAH :D

[The Leaper]

Not feeling good about a game where we dominate for 2 quarters and are only up by 7. Lots of dropped passes...lots of questionable coaching decisions.

[Packgator]

McCarthy still = dumb

"dumb" guy has Packers at 3-1 and up 7 at the half on the road.

[Mr. T]

Why didn't we bring another kicker in during camp?!?

Thompson's refusal to bring in aging veteran talent will destroy this team! Look at our #2's on D!

You forgot aging declining veteran talent.

Your argument is ridiculous! Look what it's done for the Skins!

Geez Bretsky, way to quash their fun. They were feeling so damn smart and you had to go screw it up... :twisted:

Sarcasm people. Let us have our fun with sarcasm. I've been listening to the "experts" on talk radio all week rip the TT for not getting Lynch when the Vikes got Moss.

[Tarlam!]

The worst Packer so far is the guy doing the play calling if you ask me.

[mmmdk]

I could watch Clay all day...helps me forget McStubby :lol:

[The Leaper]

McCarthy still = dumb

"dumb" guy has Packers at 3-1 and up 7 at the half on the road.

Yeah...Sherman did that a lot too. So what? The Redskins are a sorry team. We DOMINATED the first half and are only up 7 because McCarthy made questionable decisions. Should be up by at least 10...probably 14.

[packerbacker1234]

We look like what we are - an offense with no real identity and a defense that is just relentless at pressuring the QB.

It's easy to mask missing Burnett and Bigby when the front 7 keeps getting the pressure they get. Solid front 7 play, some nice reads and jumps by Woodson as usual.

Matthews, Jenkins, and Raji are too busy being the beasts they are to care what else is going on.

I wont say the guy calling plays is at fault for the offensive production. We constantly kept driving all first half. Not getting it in from the inch line on 4th isn't all on the coach. Generally, that woiuld be a PA toss up to Finley, who's hurt. Went to quarless and the ball wasn't over the top enough and hit the defender in the head.

Otherwise were up 17 - 3 and looking very pretty right now. Honestly, play calling and offensive production is way up. It's all about the fact we didn't get in on 4th down.

[Joemailman]

I don'y criticize MM as much as some, but what happened at the end of the half made no sense. If you're not going to try to score, why put the ball in the air at all? There could easily have been an INT off of a deflection.

[gbgary]

Finley's wife just tweeted she talked to Jerm, and he said he'd be back soon..Not sure if that means today or what..

YEAH :D

love the wife tweet! yotto!

[packerbacker1234]

I don'y criticize MM as much as some, but what happened at the end of the half made no sense. If you're not going to try to score, why put the ball in the air at all? There could easily have been an INT off of a deflection.

And who says that last play is all on MM? Sure as hell didn't look like driver was expecting the ball. Rodgers may have made the decision himself to dump it off to "pad stats" - because hail mary could be an int.

Just saying, at some point you can't just keep pointing fingers at the play caller when the players aren't even on the same page. There were apparent deep routes and RODGERS decided to quick throw it, not MM.

[MadtownPacker]

Whew. They held them to a FG. So at least the Pack can go in up by seven.

I'll take it.Bullshit, you know the Pack should be working on a blow out already.

[Bretsky]

LET'S GIVE DOM A SHOUT OUT FOR A GREAT GAME PLAN IN HALF ONE

Down Barnett, Pickett, Burnett, .....we give up 3 pts

[ThunderDan]

Let's look at this:

On O: Grant, Tauscher, Finley out
On D: Harris, Bigby, Burnett, Barnett, Chillar, Pickett, Shields out

And we dominated a team on the road.

Let's not get all bent out of shape. Let's play the same in the 2nd half and get away with a NFC Conference win (huge for tie-breakers) with 8 starters out.

That does show a lot about our depth if you ask me.

[Packgator]

McCarthy still = dumb

"dumb" guy has Packers at 3-1 and up 7 at the half on the road.

Yeah...Sherman did that a lot too. So what? The Redskins are a sorry team. We DOMINATED the first half and are only up 7 because McCarthy made questionable decisions. Should be up by at least 10...probably 14.

Yes...should be up 10 or more.....but MM brought a team (with injuries everywhere) on the road ready to play. Redskins are average......but they make plays too. Again.....up 7 at the half on the road.

[The Leaper]

Rodgers may have made the decision himself to dump it off to "pad stats" - because hail mary could be an int.

Huh? Yeah, I'm sure Rodgers is real concerned about his stats. The guy wants to WIN.

[retailguy]

LET'S GIVE DOM A SHOUT OUT FOR A GREAT GAME PLAN IN HALF ONE

Down Barnett, Pickett, Burnett, .....we give up 3 pts :bclap:

[pbmax]

Charlie Peprah has one guy in his area, and he watches mcnabb...right there is why he isn't a long term replacement.

Na that's not what happened. You try and keep Moss from seperating for 8 seconds. McNabb had too much time.
Peprah isn't in man coverage, he needs to stay deeper than the WR then close. He let him go right by without running with him.

[MadtownPacker]

Rodgers may have made the decision himself to dump it off to "pad stats" - because hail mary could be an int.

Huh? Yeah, I'm sure Rodgers is real concerned about his stats. The guy wants to WIN.I think the idea was to get in range for a long FG attempt. probably too far back for a hail mary.

[The Leaper]

Yes...should be up 10 or more.....but MM brought a team (with injuries everywhere) on the road ready to play. Redskins are average......but they make plays too. Again.....up 7 at the half on the road.

I give more credit to Capers...the defense is the group that looks ready to play, not the offense. The offense continues to shoot itself in the foot. McCarthy knows jack about defense.

[retailguy]

Peprah is playing well today. Maybe he won't get dumped when bigby comes back...

[Bretsky]

and Chillar too; forgot him
We get Harris back soon

I think I like Peprah better then Bibgy already

[retailguy]

I didn't realize that Galloway is still playing. Holy crap. He's almost as old as Favre!

[The Leaper]

Joey Galloway is still playing? egads

[Badgerinmaine]

Rodgers may have made the decision himself to dump it off to "pad stats" - because hail mary could be an int.

Huh? Yeah, I'm sure Rodgers is real concerned about his stats. The guy wants to WIN.
I agree with Leaper--and up 7, why risk an INT that could put Washington in field goal range?

[retailguy]

Torain is running hard.

[Packgator]

Yes...should be up 10 or more.....but MM brought a team (with injuries everywhere) on the road ready to play. Redskins are average......but they make plays too. Again.....up 7 at the half on the road.

I give more credit to Capers...the defense is the group that looks ready to play, not the offense.

Credit to Capers.....Yes!

[imscott72]

We got a break there..

[gbgary]

stupid talk by troy there. ref just didn't see it. woodson rules. jesus.

[The Leaper]

Woodson gets away with a TON...I'll take it now, but at some point it'll bite us.

[Bretsky]

Gotta admit

Woodsen gets away with more PI's than any player I've seen

He really misses Al Harris and if Al comes back healthy we'll see more playmaking from Woody

[ThunderDan]

Horrible call goes in our favor.

[mmmdk]

We got a break there..

Ups, Zebras! :oops:

[pbmax]

We look like what we are - an offense with no real identity and a defense that is just relentless at pressuring the QB.
Fifth in the league in scoring. I like the no-identity offense.

[The Leaper]

I agree with Leaper--and up 7, why risk an INT that could put Washington in field goal range?

No reason whatsoever to throw a pass under 15 yards in that situation. None. It is entirely on McCarthy, because they looked short on first down when the ball slipped out of Rodgers' hands. If McCarthy didn't want to go short, he would've let Rodgers know at that point.

[gbgary]

nice first down from bj there.

[The Leaper]

Gotta admit

Woodsen gets away with more PI's than any player I've seen

He really misses Al Harris and if Al comes back healthy we'll see more playmaking from Woody

Actually, I'm guessing the refs may have said the pass was uncatchable by Moss...Woodson knocked Moss CLOSER to the path of the ball. Moss ran a curl, and the ball was thrown 3 yards to the left of him.

Finley's wife just tweeted she talked to Jerm, and he said he'd be back soon..Not sure if that means today or what..

YEAH :D

love the wife tweet! yotto!

BJ

[imscott72]

That a boy BJax!!

[The Leaper]

I'd keep running it right now...Redskins are expecting pass.

[pbmax]

I love the way Jackson is running. Hard and with purpose. But that hop cut back inside is going to get him killed or cause a TO.

[gbgary]

nice pass and catch there

[The Leaper]

well...I guess if you know the receiver is going to be wide open...you can pass. lol

[Badgerinmaine]

I know it's mostly off BJack's first big run, but Pack is over 100 yards rushing on the day.

[pbmax]

Again with the TO on offense for no reason.

[mmmdk]

KUHN - the crowd is loud :D

[Badgerinmaine]

Big play coming up here. Bad performance so far today on 3rd down for the Pack.

[pbmax]

Again with the TO on offense for no reason.
Other than simply running out of time.

[Bretsky]

Dang....my Rams are going down the tubes
KC might actually be for real; they are giving Indy a game

Hate these early TO's but worth it if it ends as a TD

[The Leaper]

Again with the TO on offense for no reason.

I dunno...I think there was a reason. Rodgers didn't feel good about the play called...didn't have time to change it...on 3rd and 2 on a critical drive, the TO is OK if it ensures we get a good playcall to try for the first down.

[mmmdk]

Again with the TO on offense for no reason.

AR & McCarthy not on same page?

[The Leaper]

If you don't use the timeouts now, McCarthy will just waste them on dumb challenges anyway.

[Badgerinmaine]

They are totally stinking on third down today.

[Bretsky]

ok; ran some clock and get a FG

[ThunderDan]

Now its 1 bad no PI call each.

[imscott72]

Mase is $$$$

That's exactly what I mean. There is no reason not to have time.

Bulaga just stoned Orakpo.

No, AR is taking too much time to read D then decide to change play. Needs to happen faster OR need to get out of huddle faster.

[Badgerinmaine]

Damn straight. ARod was feeling the pressure and was ready to go down and then he looked right and saw Bulaga had stoned his man and had more time.

[mmmdk]

Eating crow...on Crosby - been too hard on the kid.

[The Leaper]

That's exactly what I mean. There is no reason not to have time.

I dunno...they ran a guy in motion, and it seemed Rodgers thought he would see something he didn't. Noticed he had 3 seconds on the playclock and took the TO.

I'm not that broken up about it. Getting a first down and extending the drive there was an important play.

[Badgerinmaine]

Dang....my Rams are going down the tubes

Hate these early TO's but worth it if it ends as a TD
Lions were due to beat someone soon; they're better than their 0-4 record. And, what's impressive about KC today is they're doing it at Indy.

[imscott72]

Finley on crutches on the sidelines..Gonna be a few weeks I bet..
