Well, that sucked

[ThunderDan]

M&M

[pbmax]

offense spitter spatter sputter

I think his hand got hit on the throw to Jennings.

[Jimx29]

ya.....those two are not running w/o shirts to prep for the game. They're trolling for post game action

[red]

screw guys warming up without shirts in 33 degree weather.

i once watched the grave digger just stand around in a tank top talking to the crowd for 30 minutes during warmups in 20 degree weather before the san fran playoff game in 97.

in the rain

and yes it was raining while in the 20's somehow

Exactly. Cant hit a defenseless player in the head. period RT @mrcapelle: Correct interpretation of a terrible rule.


Does not need to be helmet on helmet according to Bedard


Bedard Twitter.
Doesnt have to be helmet to helmet RT @PackersMult: No helmet to helmet contact was made. Watch the play.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Nope. clean pocket he just threw it poorly

[Cheesehead Craig]

Scheffler heard the footsteps

[Jimx29]

stafford is starting to look really shaky

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Wow, a stop!

[red]

stafford is starting to look really shaky

you got that right

really tough to screw up a QB when you don't touch him all night

[denverYooper]

Well well well.

[mmmdk]

Was that Cobb?

[ThunderDan]

Short field, let's take it in for a TD.

[red]

i can't watch a tom cruise action star movie knowing full well that in real life he is a 5 foot tall midget pussy

It wouldn't apply in this situation, but LaCanfora mentioned earlier in the day that the league was considering penalizing runners (with the ball) for lowering their heads into contact.

[Packers4Glory]

Short field, let's take it in for a TD.

Have to get points here

[denverYooper]

Short field, let's take it in for a TD.

This.

[Jimx29]

holy sheet...

[ThunderDan]

What a catch!

[red]

OMG what a catch, if he did get both feet in

[pittstang5]

wow

[mmmdk]

:wow: Cobb

[ThunderDan]

NOt a catch?

[red]

It wouldn't apply in this situation, but LaCanfora mentioned earlier in the day that the league was considering penalizing runners (with the ball) for lowering their heads into contact.

i think to be fair, all contact on the playing feild should be flagged. then reviewed automatically

[Cheesehead Craig]

Fuck

[mmmdk]

Stop sucking, GB offense :mad:

[ThunderDan]

Tackle by his head?

[denverYooper]

EDS just got killed.

[pittstang5]

Ugh - not good. Now out of FG for Crosby - just punt it.

[Packers4Glory]

Rodgers ran right up into that

[red]

EDS just got his fat ass handed to him

[Cheesehead Craig]

Play field position!!!!

[mmmdk]

Oh no, not a FG...

[denverYooper]

Jeez o petes.

[pittstang5]

NO!!!!

[Packers4Glory]

MM still throwing craps when it comes to Crosby. Maybe he thinks he's in Vegas.

[red]

yup

great job team

way to give up 10 yards while in fg range

[ThunderDan]

That 8 yards really hurt.

[mmmdk]

Play field position!!!!

I agree!

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Crap

[Cheesehead Craig]

Stupid ass call by MM. Should have punted

[pittstang5]

SON of a - Stupid, play field position.

[Teamcheez1]

You knew that was going to be a miss. I don't like the earlier play call and now the FG attempt.

[red]

Play field position!!!!

fat fuck mike doesn't know what that means

[Jimx29]

Cobbs catch copied earlier today

http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1853635/avantomg_medium.gif

[mmmdk]

FG try is on Stubby!

[denverYooper]

Play field position!!!!

I agree, but when do they ever do that?

[pittstang5]

Stupid ass call by MM. Should have punted

Yep

[pbmax]

Chris missed Suh coming loose on stunt because Barclay missed him. So Rodgers couldn't bail right.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Finally a hold on Detroit

[mmmdk]

Holding on Lions? Nooo, can't be!

[pittstang5]

Holy shit a hold call on detriot

[Cheesehead Craig]

Where's Moses?

[pbmax]

fat fuck mike doesn't know what that means

Might not like this choice, but he has been watching field position longer than we have. Always talking about hidden yardage in special teams.

[Teamcheez1]

Why play 5-10 yards off the receivers?

[pittstang5]

3rd down and whatever - they'll make it. momentum has shifted

[mmmdk]

Prevent D sucks!

[Packers4Glory]

why not kick the FG. Crosby has been nails from 50+ this yr...oh wait.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Have we actually held on 3rd down? I know they've missed on a couple but I don't think we've stopped them once.

[Teamcheez1]

Capers is going soft again.

[pbmax]

why not kick the FG. Crosby has been nails from 50+ this yr...oh wait.

Wasn't good choice. Which end of the stadium did he kick into? North or South?

[ThunderDan]

Wasn't good choice. Which end of the stadium did he kick into? North or South?

South.

[Teamcheez1]

Detroit is 8-11 on 3rd down conversions so far. We really haven't stopped much of anything.

[red]

Might not like this choice, but he has been watching field position longer than we have. Always talking about hidden yardage in special teams.

fatty Mcfuck talks about a lot of things that are over his head, or he does nothing about

he can watch all the shit he wants, until he actually processes that info, it does him, and us, no good

[Jimx29]

well, we used the 3rd quarter break to stop them

[pbmax]

Packer Report ‏@PackerReport
Crosby short from 56, too, kicking to north end zone.

36m Packer Report ‏@PackerReport
Crosby short from 53 in warm-ups. Not a nice night.

Packer Report ‏@PackerReport
Crosby hits from 52 to the south.

He did it because Crosby told him he could hit from 50 I bet.

[Packers4Glory]

I wouldn't be surprised if that missed FG attempt is the difference in this game.

The offense hasn't been able to get a sustained drive aside from once tonight. They really needed to play the field position game considering our kicker has been bad from 50+. thats there for anyone to see. It's not a knock on Crosby, its just fact this yr. Not a time to gamble.

[ThunderDan]

Rogers TD was right in front of our seats if it was GOLD game.

[red]

Detroit is 8-11 on 3rd down conversions so far. We really haven't stopped much of anything.

i'm guessing one of those three stops was a pass thrown right to one of our guys, and the other is when the ball jumped out of staffords hand

[Freak Out]

Kick it deep and play D.....the odds of a miss were high and it gave them great field position. Also...why no runs on the last posession?

[ThunderDan]

Good game by Shields.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Hey the blitz almost go there!

[Jimx29]

short? damn....

[pbmax]

fatty Mcfuck talks about a lot of things that are over his head, or he does nothing about

he can watch all the shit he wants, until he actually processes that info, it does him, and us, no good

We used to say the same thing about his Special Teams and they are now far better.

The problem is that he takes Crosby's and Slocum's estimates as gospel and kicks accordingly. He should consider the other two and half (O, D and punt) units as well.

[Teamcheez1]

They trot Grandpa out for a FG attempt. We catch a break.

[KYPack]

So is the Schwartz a moron for kicking the FG?

[Packers4Glory]

thanks detroit

[ThunderDan]

Pack back on the march.

[denverYooper]

He did it because Crosby told him he could hit from 50 I bet.

Yeah, and I'd bet that somewhere he figures Crosby will get on a streak of those at some point.

[red]

He did it because Crosby told him he could hit from 50 I bet.

whats weird is that he was kicking to the south. with wind out of the east. but the ball was moving from west to east.

unless they changed where the main cameras are to the other side of the field?

i think the new addition is gonna reall screw with how the wind swirls around the bowl

[Jimx29]

I seriously would love to see Grant come in and bust one for a TD

[Cheesehead Craig]

So is the Schwartz a moron for kicking the FG?

His kicker has a far better track record of kicking

[Freak Out]

So is the Schwartz a moron for kicking the FG?

Yes.

[Freak Out]

Nice call.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Nice call with the draw

[mmmdk]

Good call!

[pbmax]

Like that call. Rodgers faked an audible to the WRs

[Packers4Glory]

alright! nice run green. we're in FG range again....

[Cheesehead Craig]

Holy shit. We're running like the Lions all of a sudden

[Freak Out]

Gang Green.

[mmmdk]

Good running/blocking.

[red]

WE CONVERTED ON 3rd AND SHORT!!!!!!!!!


WHOOP

[ThunderDan]

Damn if Kuhn makes a block that breaks.

[Packers4Glory]

FUCK YEAH GRANT BABY!!!

[mmmdk]

GRANT

[Jimx29]

I seriously would love to see Grant come in and bust one for a TD
ooooo...that was close

[red]

GRANT!!!!!!

FTW

[pbmax]

Good question. Stadium construction played havoc with Fenway and Yankee stadium.

[MadScientist]

I seriously would love to see Grant come in and bust one for a TD


No TD, but a good run.

[Guiness]

See the smile on Grant's face when he got up after that run? He was one happy guy!

[KYPack]

Numby for leader.

Nice to see Ryan go.

[pbmax]

As Barry would say, they got the horses lathered up.

[Packers4Glory]

I like this Harris guy too. where the eff did he come from

[ThunderDan]

RUn game looks good when they stay with it.

[red]

we can power run with barclay in there

we might have fallen ass backwards into something here

[KalamazooPackerFan]

I seriously would love to see Grant come in and bust one for a TD

Close!

[Jimx29]

atta boY

[mmmdk]

HARRIS TD

[red]

FUCK YEAH BABAY

[Packers4Glory]

I like this Harris guy too. where the eff did he come from

what he said

[Cheesehead Craig]

I am just fucking stunned. Was that the Badgers running offense out there?

[ThunderDan]

EDS with a great pull and block.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

We really can have a running game if we committ!

[Brando19]

Ok...what the hell is going on? Two straight weeks with rushing TD's?

[Upnorth]

Now that was some nice run blocking.

[Brando19]

we can power run with barclay in there

we might have fallen ass backwards into something here

That's a WV Mountaineer for ya....tough sum bitch!

[mmmdk]

Great Packers drive!

:cow:

[ThunderDan]

A lot of non-zone runs tonight.

[Jimx29]

Great Packers drive!

:cow:

Exactly. That should knock them back on their heels now

[denverYooper]

DuJuan harris is an explosive little dude. Just pops right through holes.

[ThunderDan]

I am thinking of Studs and Duds and you look at pass pro vs run blocking. Dud vs Stud

[Sactopackfan]

Holy shit Harris is quick, he hits the hole faster than any of the other backs.

[Jimx29]

I'm loving that fact the WEAU channel 13 runs the snow closings....right until the play starts and they remove it :)
KARE11 out of the twin cities....not so much

[ThunderDan]

Eric Flesch on the TV.

[pbmax]

A lot of non-zone runs tonight.

They have really gone away from it with tackle trouble and with Lang's bad arm even when at Guard.

[pbmax]

There are ONLY 4 DLINEMAN ACTIVE CHRIS!

[pbmax]

shields is looking good. But he's covering Stafford's college roommate.

[mmmdk]

Shields slipped...we got lucky.

[ThunderDan]

There's Hawk in the hole shedding the blocker.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Yes, a stop!

[pbmax]

Hawk defeats blockm disengages and tackles. The world really is going to end in a couple of weeks.

[Brando19]

Stafford is side arming it tonight.

[red]

detroit is doing all they can to hand us this game

[Jimx29]

get another nice running series now and close it out!

[KYPack]

We covered Scheffler on 3rd and long?

That ain't like us.

[Brando19]

Think we'll see Grant again tonight? I hope so.

[mmmdk]

Time for more Packer points on loooooong, long drive.

[red]

Hawk defeats blockm disengages and tackles. The world really is going to end in a couple of weeks.

when is that? the 21st?

i need to start fucking more chicks

[Jimx29]

Stafford is side arming it tonight.
yup. he's clearly shaky. this is good

[ThunderDan]

detroit is doing all they can to hand us this game

Great coverage by Hayward. Stafford had a 18 inch window to make a completion.

[Jimx29]

Think we'll see Grant again tonight? I hope so.
:crossedfingers:

[pbmax]

Hayward had pretty good coverage and an angle. Would have been a fantastic throw to squeeze it past him

[mmmdk]

Stafford is side arming it tonight.

When Staff's ma gave birth to Staff; he actually came out sideways!

[Jimx29]

lost his bearings slipping

[mmmdk]

Does Suh even speak english?

[red]

hmm, running game working, and we need to run time off the clock

M3- BOMB IT, BOMB IT

[Jimx29]

ouch...

[Jimx29]

hmm, running game working, and we need to run time off the clock

M3- BOMB IT, BOMB IT

that's our leader!

[red]

m3- we have them right where we want them, we can finally go deep

[mmmdk]

Think we'll see Grant again tonight? I hope so.

Don't blink!

[Packers4Glory]

:crossedfingers:

I'm gonna say probably not w/ the lead and him being a bit rusty.

[Brando19]

When Staff's ma gave birth to Staff; he actually came out sideways!

lol!

[ThunderDan]

Stafford is side arming it tonight.

I don't get that. I understand if you're being tackled and all of that, but he can't be doing that as much as he is.

[pbmax]

Odds your wife or girlfriend would approve of previous tenant coming over unannounced to watch the game from his favorite spot?

<5%

[pbmax]

Does Suh even speak english?

What language would you expect him to speak?

[red]

What language would you expect him to speak?

that click clack african speak?

[Brando19]

What language would you expect him to speak?

Thuganomics.

[pbmax]

I don't get that. I understand if you're being tackled and all of that, but he can't be doing that as much as he is.

Always been an issue I think. Wasn't that something he was know for in college? Poor throwing mechanics but big arm? concern coming in was accuracy.

[mmmdk]

What language would you expect him to speak?

Grunt!

[Cheesehead Craig]

That's our elite QB!

[Jimx29]

wheew.....

[pbmax]

Nice to see WRs figuring out how to sit open in a zone.

[red]

i love cobb

[mmmdk]

YEAH

[Packers4Glory]

huge

[denverYooper]

THE GODDAMN 3 MAN RUSH!!!

(Oh wait, it was the Lions...)

[mmmdk]

i love cobb

I know dude, it's ok!

[ThunderDan]

Great route by Cobb to move the LB and create a window for ARod.

[Brando19]

THE GODDAMN 3 MAN RUSH!!!

(Oh wait, it was the Lions...)

LOL....nice one.

[red]

quit burning TPO's in the middle of the half. we might still need those at the end of the game

[Brando19]

I need to start a Harris for starting RB bandwagon.

[pbmax]

i love cobb

cornhole?

[Upnorth]

Barclay is looking much better this half. If lang cna go back to guard our o will look much much better.

[mmmdk]

Sorry, I don't feel great about a potential FG try...I want a Packers TD.

[pbmax]

Is Ted sitting there with the window open?

[pbmax]

Holy crap is was OPEN!

[mmmdk]

F@ck..FG try...:shock:

[ThunderDan]

Just over thrown.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Is Ted sitting there with the window open?

No, his hair is normally white.

[Teamcheez1]

The prevent offense took over again.

That seemed like a waste.

[Jimx29]

yep.....There's your dagger....?

[mmmdk]

F@ck..FG try...:shock:

Phew!!!

[red]

4th and 7 and we go deep

how has M3 NOT figured out that that doesn't work

i think crosby is back to normal

[Cheesehead Craig]

Gee, where did that troll Rutnstrut go since the Packers are doing well?

[Brando19]

I know this is out of line, but I wish Ted would have stood up and had a Thanks Brett jersey on. lol

[pbmax]

Nice and straight.

~lowered expectations

[ThunderDan]

Wonder if the AROd Jennings timing is a little off. That should have been a TD.

[mmmdk]

i think crosby is back to normal

We need that!

[pbmax]

4th and 7 and we go deep

how has M3 NOT figured out that that doesn't work

i think crosby is back to normal

He was WIDE open. Rodgers just put too much rope into it.

[Jimx29]

fuckin punk thugs

[Packers4Glory]

cheapshot fuckers

[red]

No, his hair is normally white.

LOL

i'm just drunk enough to find that hillarious

[mmmdk]

Fairley is a bastard.

[ThunderDan]

That's should be $25,000.

[red]

He was WIDE open. Rodgers just put too much rope into it.

low percentage, open or not

[mmmdk]

cheapshot fuckers

Spot on! :tup:

[Cheesehead Craig]

Can't complain on that effort from Shields. That would have been a hell of an INT

[denverYooper]

Is Ted sitting there with the window open?

Probably. He's the polar bear, is he not?

[mmmdk]

That's should be $25,000.

I hear ya!

[pbmax]

Is Shields some kind of CB savant more like Hayward (with less college exp.) than we thought or just extraordinarily athletic?

[red]

one more D

Dagger time

[ThunderDan]

WHew, Jones behind the RB.

[pbmax]

Probably. He's the polar bear, is he not?

True. Why didn't I think of that?

Damit

[Packers4Glory]

Is Shields some kind of CB savant more like Hayward (with less college exp.) than we thought or just extraordinarily athletic?

he's athletic.

[red]

uh oh

burnet hit him. is that a personal foul?

[ND72]

These refs are so inconsistent. They should wear shock collars...anytime 1 messes up they all get a shock.

[Cheesehead Craig]

uh oh

burnet hit him. is that a personal foul?

I was thinking that too

[red]

personal foul on hayward, hitting below the chest

[ThunderDan]

Hayward doesn't seem to find sticking his nose in a tackle.

[red]

man, you guys are right

stafford is a side arming bitch tonight

[Cheesehead Craig]

That was a pick 6

[mmmdk]

That Staff sidearm is not even worth being a sidekick to the Bobby Hebert sidearm! :lol:

[Brando19]

Studs: Stafford's side arm. Throws it to us everytime.

[denverYooper]

How long before Hayward becomes a media darling?

[ThunderDan]

Is Hayward in the running for D rookie of the year?

[pbmax]

Bright player maybe, but Scheffler toasted him that time. bad throw saved him

[mmmdk]

Stud of the game? denveryooper

[Jimx29]

DAGGER!!

[red]

hayward with no hand eye coordination. looks like he watch the ball right in but had both hands 2 feet away from the ball

worthy will be fined for that, should have been a flag

DAGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cheesehead Craig]

There's your daggar!

[ThunderDan]

No INT.

[mmmdk]

Not a int...which is better! :lol:

[red]

doesn't matter costas and collinsworth

victory formation time

[ThunderDan]

hayward with no hand eye coordination. looks like he watch the ball right in but had both hands 2 feet away from the ball

worthy will be fined for that, should have been a flag

DAGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I disagree with that call. Worthy was being held and then the DET OL pushed him straight into Stafford.

[mmmdk]

There's your daggar!

I wanna hear you say "daggar"...:wink:

[red]

No INT.

i think it was an INT

[Packers4Glory]

nice to see them stick it out and comeback after an early 14-0 hole.

Crosby looking much better too. He had a miss, but shit it was still a bomb. Some of these misses and the confidence issues can go right back to the head coach putting him some pretty bad situations. Esp with a guy struggling to find his groove again.

[Packers4Glory]

I wonder how many people that non-int just saved in fantasy football.

[mmmdk]

i think it was an INT

:lol: Why is this even funny? :lol:

[Cheesehead Craig]

I wanna hear you say "daggar"...:wink:

Daggar. See not that hard.:wink:

[Jimx29]

Lets get some Grant time to close out the game

[red]

detroit helped us out a lot today, but we did take advantage when given to opportunity

[mmmdk]

Daggar. See not that hard.:wink:

:lol:

[red]

:lol: Why is this even funny? :lol:

i'm seeing like 4 tv's right now. it looked like a pick to me

[Jimx29]

I wanna hear you say "daggar"...:wink:

I ain't even from maine!

[pbmax]

Is that Fairley in pain? Too bad.

[Cheesehead Craig]

detroit helped us out a lot today, but we did take advantage when given to opportunity

They did, but we did kick the crap out of them in the 2nd half.

[ThunderDan]

i'm seeing like 4 tv's right now. it looked like a pick to me

Excellent!!!!

[Cheesehead Craig]

i'm seeing like 4 tv's right now. it looked like a pick to me

Watch the one on the middle

[KYPack]

Man, I hope we don't win 'em this way a lot.

The beginning of this game scared the shit out of me.

[mmmdk]

How long before Hayward becomes a media darling?

Soon...I don't know but YOU DA MAN TONIGHT. You called it. :tup:

[red]

Is that Fairley in pain? Too bad.

well i hope he dies

[Packers4Glory]

detroit helped us out a lot today, but we did take advantage when given to opportunity

yeah that Stafford fumble was huge. If that doesn't happen, I don't think we win.

They turned a TO into 7 points. we turned one in for 7.

But its nice to see the line at least opening some holes. That will translate in the passing game if they can get teams to stay honest and respect the run.

[KYPack]

Red, you sniffing paint thinner again?

[mmmdk]

Home sweep Lambeau Home

[pbmax]

Man, I hope we don't win 'em this way a lot.

The beginning of this game scared the shit out of me.

This is what its like to be a Cowboys fan.

Love this Cam Play 60 ad. The kid is fantastic.

[red]

Watch the one on the middle

that one seems upside down

[Packers4Glory]

i don't care who you are. That new Cam Newton commercial for play 60 is funny shit.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

A win is a win. Will only watch the first half again if I'm feeling seriously masochistic.
