The only way you end his career is to rip his tongue out.

[pittstang5]

Preseason or not, this is going to be a tough, physical game. Those hawks play dirty and I just hope no one gets hurt tonight. But we haven't escaped a game yet this year or even last year without someone getting hurt.

[denverYooper]

I'd like to see Lacy lower the boom on Browner.

[CaptainKickass]

Obligatory game day post.

[Joemailman]

Thanks Captain. :tup:

[Joemailman]

Things to watch for:

Bacteria should get a good test from Chris Clemons. Avril is not playing.

First time we'll see DuJuan Harris and Lacy on same night.

Hope to see Barclay back up the RT position.

Hope one of the backup QB's look good.

Want to see more plays by McMillian.

Not sure if Hayward is playing. If not, Hyde should get a lot of playing time today.

Wrap up a roster spot Johnny!

[denverYooper]

That's what you call an atrophy case.

[Upnorth]

Don't have to worry about finger prints at least. Hope VY looks good. Hope OL looks great!

Ok, First Row only has one link and it requires the download. Has anyone downloaded from them without your computer exploding?

[red]

so how long do we have to sit through to worthless asshole blabbing before kickoff?

[red]

Ok, First Row only has one link and it requires the download. Has anyone downloaded from them without your computer exploding?

plug the fucking bunny ears in, no one should have to miss this one

[MJZiggy]

plug the fucking bunny ears in, no one should have to miss this one

Those would have to be some badass bunny ears since I live in Maryland. Dammit.

[red]

Those would have to be some badass bunny ears since I live in Maryland. Dammit.

you don't get CBS in maryland? its a national broadcast i believe

[pittstang5]

Those would have to be some badass bunny ears since I live in Maryland. Dammit.



it's on CBS - nationally.

You shouldn't have to download anything on first row. They are all pop-ups that look like things you need to download.

[pittstang5]

already burned

[red]

so, after two plays i can safely say that we still haven't figured out the run/option

[pittstang5]

now twice.

[pittstang5]

now, 3rd and long...can they hold

[pittstang5]

now, 3rd and long...can they hold

Middle of the field WIDE FUCKING OPEN

[red]

its amazing that after 3 or 4 years that every single person that runs across the middle of our defense is always open by at least 5 yards

why can't we still figure that out?

[red]

fuck you ron winters

arrogant prick

worst prof i ever had

[pittstang5]

another 3rd and long....

[pittstang5]

God damn...middle of the fucking field...AGAIN!

[pittstang5]

Fuck, it don't matter. 1st down - stop, 2nd down - stop. 3rd down - middle of the field - wide open!

[red]

thank god cm III

and the team shows some fight after the whistle

[pittstang5]

THat's right Mathews - GET SOME!

[red]

someone needs to pound through that thick wig of capers that an 18 yard gain on 3rd and 19 when they are in or close to field goal range should still not be acceptable

[Joemailman]

Brad "Just A Guy" Jones has had a couple of nice plays.

[red]

more fighting after the whistle

FUCK YEAH, AIM FOR THE KNEES

[pittstang5]

we're gonna see some fists fights yet.

[steve823]

Good to see dejuan Harris out on the field

[red]

Brad "Just A Guy" Jones has had a couple of nice plays.

that big stick of his in the backfield was something i didn't think he was capable of to be honest

[red]

yup, they can talk all they want about 1000 yard runners and all, we haven't tried to run the ball yet

same old M3, he's already forgotten about the run

[pittstang5]

Haven't seen a running play yet.

[pittstang5]

1st run and it could have been much worse

[pittstang5]

Seahawks will blitz here

[red]

1st team o still can't get the ball in

that is starting to become worrisome IMO

[Joemailman]

Crosby=Automatic. :wave:

[steve823]

Feel like Finley is going to have a huge year

[pittstang5]

EDS sucks, they should have drafted a center

[pbmax]

EDS sucks, they should have drafted a center

They did.

[Joemailman]

EDS sucks, they should have drafted a center

Well, I think they had plans for Tretter at Center.

[pbmax]

First Impressions:

1. Wayne and Larry need to replaced

2. Run D OK, Pass D WTF?

3. Raji once again shook free for QB pressure and the guy broke loose for 13 yards. Something has to be done about this. You can't waste that kind of pressure.

[red]

HOW THE FUCK IS THAT A TD?????????????????????

[pittstang5]

yes!

[pbmax]

Giacomini is exercising a grudge against the Packers D.

[pbmax]

Its Darrel Bevel and Mike Sherman's offense. Of course that was a screen on 2nd and forever!

[pittstang5]

ugh

[steve823]

I wish we did screens like that:-?

[red]

i think the worse thing our defence can do is get into a second or third and long situation

because we have no clue how to defend those

[pittstang5]

that #64 is dirty has shit...been shovong after the play all game. Does Carroll have a "Playing Dirty" clinic.

[red]

our d still sucks

its still big play or nothing

[pbmax]

someone needs to pound through that thick wig of capers that an 18 yard gain on 3rd and 19 when they are in or close to field goal range should still not be acceptable

Wasn't it 3rd and goal? I would be more certain but I am going by what Wayne told me on the radio.

[pbmax]

Jones and Jolly getting playing time.

[pbmax]

Oh crap. Burnett hamstring

[red]

oh good, our one good safety is out with a hammy injury

he'll be on IR by tomorrow

[pbmax]

Note for Justin. That was off coverage by Packers CBs on 3rd and 5.

Banjo with great hit and tackle.

[steve823]

Didn't think jolly would have as big of an impact as he does..he still got it

[Joemailman]

that #64 is dirty has shit...been shovong after the play all game. Does Carroll have a "Playing Dirty" clinic.

Yes. It's called practice.

[steve823]

Hopefully we see lacy this drive and get some run plays started

[pbmax]

Also liked Ross' opening 33 yard KOR.

[Joemailman]

Note for Justin. That was off coverage by Packers CBs on 3rd and 5.

Banjo with great hit and tackle.

Burnett out with a leg injury, maybe hamstring. Banjo could make the team tonight.

[pittstang5]

Brad Jones being looked at by the doc. too.

[red]

lacy wins RB competition

[pittstang5]

Fucking hold! C'mon!

[pbmax]

Hopefully we see lacy this drive and get some run plays started

Don't lose your shirt. They went no huddle and had the Seahawks in base with Packer's 3 wide or 2 TE personnel. It was designed to be pass plays. They did have at least one run-pass option.

[pbmax]

Brad Jones being looked at by the doc. too.

which body part?

[red]

kuhn runs = waste of play

[pbmax]

That was not holding. Hands to the face - yes. Holding - no.

[red]

HIT THAT FUCKER IN THE KNEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pbmax]

Why did James Jones slow down and then come up short?

[red]

harrell needs to go away

[pbmax]

kuhn runs = waste of play

Yeah. That was a panicked run it so Harrell doesn't get killed call.

[pittstang5]

which body part?

Didn't say, just said being looked at by team doctor.

[red]

golden tate returning, perfect time to take the fucker out

[pbmax]

Didn't say, just said being looked at by team doctor.

Jones or Burnett? Cause TV had Burnett injured but did not hear mention of Jones.

[steve823]

Really don't get what McCarthy or anyone sees in Harrell. Vince young will probably be a better backup

[pbmax]

HOUSE!!

[pittstang5]

Jones or Burnett? Cause TV had Burnett injured but did not hear mention of Jones.

Brad Jones, per Silverstein's blog. He mentioned Burnett seperately.

[pbmax]

Don't mind admitting it. Love CJ Wilson's effort.

[pbmax]

HAYWARD!

Only thing I don't like is he should have forced Turbin back inside to help. But made tackle so OK

[steve823]

Nice tackle by Hayward..man he's good

[pbmax]

And the D gets a stop. Moses stopped that pickup in zone a bit short.

[pittstang5]

They're dropping like flies. CJ Wilson with a shoulder injury. WTF!!!!!

[pbmax]

Lang that was terrible. Whoops, wasn't Lang's fault.

[pbmax]

Harris is now hurt.

[red]

harris hurt of course

[pittstang5]

now Harris hurt. Jesus fuckin Christ

[pittstang5]

Get Finley out of there before he gets hurt too.

[red]

finley hurt..............


yep

[pbmax]

finley hurt..............


yep

He is back.

Boykin nearly gives up ball.

[pittstang5]

finley hurt..............


yep

Please tell me you're joking

[pbmax]

Terrible call. That was a fumble

[steve823]

Challenge in preseason?

[pittstang5]

Oh, that's a fumble

[Carolina_Packer]

Harrell not wetting himself. Discuss.

[pbmax]

Challenge in preseason?

Yep. And I think he will win it.

[pbmax]

Harrell not wetting himself. Discuss.

Not going to lie. Would like more. At least no INTs. Just batted balls.

[pittstang5]

stupid, boykin, stupid

[pbmax]

Francois in for Jones.

[pbmax]

Wooo HOOO!!

Nick Perry with the tip.

[red]

casey still has it

[steve823]

Nick Perry!!! Can't wait to see him this year and NOT Walden.

[pittstang5]

Nick Perry with the batted ball...taking a play out of Jolly's book

[Carolina_Packer]

Vandy representing!

[pbmax]

Nice route James, drew a flag getting separation.

Said it last year about the horrible first half in Seattle, M3 is convinced he can pass on those monsters in the Seattle secondary

[Carolina_Packer]

Probably not catchable

[steve823]

Lacy has zero holes to run.

[red]

running game isn't so effective when the d knows your qb can't throw the ball

[pittstang5]

wow, o-line is getting no push...moving backwards

[pbmax]

Boykin simply gets open on zones. And he has the hands to make limited skill set work in man coverage.

[Carolina_Packer]

Looking him wrapping up...he learned!

[pbmax]

wow, o-line is getting no push...moving backwards

I wish they would replay some of that so we could see the errors.

[red]

my god

how is harrell even on the team at this point?

[pittstang5]

God!!!

[steve823]

Go for it..lacy run with Kuhn blocking!

[pbmax]

Nice catch J Mike!

[red]

great catch

[red]

nvm, no catch

[pittstang5]

Really? Not sure he had that

[steve823]

McCarthy is always saying he wants to establish the run but goes 5 wide every other play.

[pbmax]

I think he caught it with his knees.

Nope. That is not a catch. Dammit. Tough ball to handle.

[pittstang5]

Nope, not a catch. Turnover on downs

[gbgary]

dang it.

[steve823]

Harrell should sit at this point.I don't want to see him anymore

[Carolina_Packer]

why is this taking so long

[Carolina_Packer]

Let's go D

[gbgary]

I hate pete carroll.

[steve823]

Nick Perry playing great

[Joemailman]

Harrell just doesn't have an arm teams have to respect. Young should be the backup. If he has to play, they can go with a pared down play list. He can at least make plays with his legs if the passing game isn't working smoothly.

[Carolina_Packer]

Does Vin Diesel come with a translator?

[pbmax]

OK. We always complain when the D doesn't communicate. In that case, they adjusted to the TE in the FB spot AND the motion of the slot receiver perfectly.

Seattle wanted a wide defender to leave the O right side and a safety filled the hole presnap. Left Perry to blow up the run because FB had to take wide defender and not head to hole. Good on the fly adjustment.

[pittstang5]

I hate pete carroll.

I hate every single one of the seahawks

[pbmax]

I hate pete carroll.

Its a big club. Welcome.

[pittstang5]

Harrell just doesn't have an arm teams have to respect. Young should be the backup. If he has to play, they can go with a pared down play list. He can at least make plays with his legs if the passing game isn't working smoothly.

Keep talking, you're starting to persuade me.

[steve823]

Watched a few of the failed runs on the commercial break. EDS is not good. I might even argue he is our worst lineman if newhouse isn't on the line

[pbmax]

There is my guy with an air mailed gift!

[gbgary]

cool.

[pittstang5]

There we go, McMillian

[pittstang5]

Watched a few of the failed runs on the commercial break. EDS is not good. I might even argue he is our worst lineman if newhouse isn't on the line

Yep, That's what I've been seeing. He either whiffs or gets manhandled.

[gbgary]

it's so much like a real game Rodgers is making dinner reservations.

[pittstang5]

Nice pss, Finley needs to catch that

[Carolina_Packer]

catchable

[pbmax]

OK. Finley can leave at the end of the season and I am not going to say boo. Its like trying to count on a soufflé.

[steve823]

Harrell the horrible

[pbmax]

And Harrel can leave too. Finley was open not matter what Phil Simms said.

[pittstang5]

How can you throw a nice pass, then follow it up by overthrowing a guy by 10 yards.

[Carolina_Packer]

Awful set of downs

[pbmax]

The two best tackling punters are in this game I believe.

Fire Slocum!

[pittstang5]

What a wasted turnover . didn't even move the ball. I think I'm ok with Harrell going bye, bye. Young can't be worse than this.

[pittstang5]

second guy always gets the flag

[pittstang5]

carroll is an ASS!

[gbgary]

geesh

[pbmax]

that is the worst call I have ever seen. He was hit out. Not hit hard, but hit.

Wasn't he?

[pittstang5]

more flags. jesus christ

[Carolina_Packer]

carroll is an ASS!

Rah, rah!

[steve823]

Late hits and shoving all game by Seattle

[Carolina_Packer]

that is the worst call I have ever seen. He was hit out. Not hit hard, but hit.

Wasn't he?

Yes, and it looked like MMA.

[pbmax]

That sequence was Pete Carroll's career in a nutshell. Packers give him 3 straight penalties and he turns it into worse field position by being overly aggressive.

[Joemailman]

Maybe he thought Masthay's leg would get tired.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Does anyone else believe the Packers are lacking a speed receiver like Jennings to stretch the field? (Well, the announcer said Jones is a "burner" so maybe I'm wrong.)

[pbmax]

Twitter has Jeremy Lane baiting Means into that offsetting personal foul. One of the reasons McCarthy looked like Tuna out there.

[steve823]

Does anyone else believe the Packers are lacking a speed receiver like Jennings to stretch the field? (Well, the announcer said Jones is a "burner" so maybe I'm wrong.)

Don't think Jennings was that much faster than anyone we have. Jones and nelson both have deceiving speed and Cobb is faster and more agile than jennings

[Maxie the Taxi]

Don't think Jennings was that much faster than anyone we have. Jones and nelson both have deceiving speed and Cobb is faster and more agile than jennings

You're right about Cobb. Nelson I guess. I hope they're both in shape to play the regular season because the receivers we got in this game may be as fast as Jennings, but they aren't as good route runners and getting separation downfield.

[Joemailman]

Does anyone else believe the Packers are lacking a speed receiver like Jennings to stretch the field? (Well, the announcer said Jones is a "burner" so maybe I'm wrong.)

Jordy can stretch the field. And Cobb forces teams to worry about the middle which makes it easier to stretch the field. Besides, what good is stretching the field when Harrell is playing QB? They probably had hoped Charles Johnson would be stretching the field.

[Guiness]

So who comes out at QB for the 2nd half? I want to see someone other than Harrell.

My god, Lacy and Harris have 8 runs for 8 yds. Maybe Wist is on to something.

[Maxie the Taxi]

We need Elastic Man!

[steve823]

The receivers are in great shape in my opinion. Its the o line I worry about

[Maxie the Taxi]

So who comes out at QB for the 2nd half? I want to see someone other than Harrell.

My god, Lacy and Harris have 8 runs for 8 yds. Maybe Wist is on to something.

I didn't see many holes. On one run Lacy broke three tackles just to get back to the line of scrimmage.

[Joemailman]

So who comes out at QB for the 2nd half? I want to see someone other than Harrell.

My god, Lacy and Harris have 8 runs for 8 yds. Maybe Wist is on to something.

If Builaga and/or Sherrod were healthy, I think T.J. Lang would be in danger of losing his starting job.

[Maxie the Taxi]

The receivers are in great shape in my opinion. Its the o line I worry about

I'm with you. The OL is a shambles. Seattle has some big boys up front.

[pittstang5]

I didn't see many holes. On one run Lacy broke three tackles just to get back to the line of scrimmage.

All those lousy runs came when Harrell was in. If Harrell is playing, i'm stacking the box too. But the o-line showed nothing - no push, nothing

[pbmax]

So who comes out at QB for the 2nd half? I want to see someone other than Harrell.

My god, Lacy and Harris have 8 runs for 8 yds. Maybe Wist is on to something.

Need to run when Rodgers is QB.

[pittstang5]

oh my god! o-line...nothing, but looks like 2nd stringers against seattles 1's

[pbmax]

Greg Van Roten trying to replace EDS and he gets steamrolled by some Seahawk

[denverYooper]

Need to run when Rodgers is QB.

Yes.

[pittstang5]

That was read nicely by Seattle.

[King Friday]

Seriously McCarthy...you are going to get our guys hurt with this moronic "play all the subs" mindset.

Lacy is going to have his leg broken soon.

[pbmax]

There wasn't much there, but Lacy needed to take that toward his one blocker wide. Cut back was a bad decision.

[steve823]

This is pathetic. They can't even get back to the line of scrimmage.

[denverYooper]

DJ hasn't dropped a pass tonight.

[gbgary]

why do we keep running sideways with lacy. up the gut people.

[digitaldean]

That was an ugly opening drive.

[pittstang5]

another piss poor series

[Joemailman]

MM having words at the sideline with Harrell. Bad news for him. Good news for us.

[denverYooper]

oh my god! o-line...nothing, but looks like 2nd stringers against seattles 1's

Indeed it is.

[King Friday]

Harrell is entirely worthless. Seattle is basically playing the run with 11 people.

[pbmax]

OK. I smell a point of emphasis that no one told the Packers about.

Fire Slocum!

[denverYooper]

Seattle was doing the same extracurricular stuff last week. Funny that the sideline reporter was talking about how there was a lot of talking on the field, "just like last week".

It's because Carroll's team is dirty.

[pbmax]

Jordan Miller, no press, seems to be able to play.

[digitaldean]

Hyde again. H knocked it out.

[denverYooper]

Micah Hyde really is always around the ball.

[pbmax]

Blown coverage and #35 is an idiot about taking angles.

Means is 35

[pittstang5]

Really, they get the first down? WTF was that.

[pittstang5]

Hold or facemask

[pbmax]

I think CJ Wilson just blessed wither his sack or Russell Wilson. If that catches on, gonna be some national debate.

[Joemailman]

C.J. Wilson ain't bad.

[digitaldean]

We're showing flashes of a pass rush, even with reserves.

[denverYooper]

Just remember I called it: CJ Wilson breakout year.

[pbmax]

New conventional wisdom.

Packer D line > Packer O line

[pittstang5]

That was weak!

[digitaldean]

Totally caught with pants down on that play.

[red]

there's our awesome d at its finest

nice 20 yard wide hole guys

[gbgary]

wow

[steve823]

New conventional wisdom.

Packer D line > Packer O line

As bad as the o-line is, it's great to see our reserve d-lineman beat them constantly.

[pbmax]

Chaz Powell useless on that play.

[pbmax]

How many draft picks would it cost to get Matt Moore?

[pbmax]

Frankln jumped from open hole to cluttered hole. Need All 22 film

[pittstang5]

hey, did we get positve yardage on that run?

[pbmax]

Ladies and Gentleman, your backup QB Vince Young, Green Bay Packers/

[denverYooper]

New conventional wisdom.

Packer D line > Packer O line

I am on board with this.

[pittstang5]

Wow, the ball is actually going the right way.

[King Friday]

Vince Young is going to be our #2...because he actually threatens the defense A LITTLE.

[red]

and thats what vince young can do that the other two can't

none of the 3 backups can throw, but at least VY can run

[pbmax]

Smeone tattooed 20 on Seattle on that scramble

[steve823]

Haha wow that was the worst throw I've seen all night.

[red]

like i said, none of the 3 back ups can throw

[digitaldean]

Our 2nd string o line is putrid.

[steve823]

Franklin is way too raw. Hopefully next year or by the end of this year he will show improvement

[King Friday]

Seattle is so undisciplined...those claiming them as Super Bowl favorites better think twice.

[pbmax]

Harris with knee issue again.

[red]

harris reinjured his knee

he's gone

[King Friday]

Damn...#1 looks like a punter playing WR.

[pbmax]

That wasn't a bad zone run.

[Upnorth]

What a dominant performance by our ol wrt run blocking. Yikes

[pittstang5]

Nice, gotta a good spot

[King Friday]

Young's height helps him a lot in that situation.

[red]

VY starting to heat up

come on vince, the job is yours to grab

[red]

there you go big man

[pbmax]

Gets forward progress on a very favorable spot.

Lot's of ex BAdgers for Seattle. It was an All Badger captain group for Seattle on coin flip. They nearly elected to kick after Packers deferred. Would have been nice to get ball twice

[pittstang5]

OK, I'm sold on Young. He at least has the awareness and the legs to get something out of nothing

[Joemailman]

Who says we don't have a running game?

[pbmax]

whenever wist pops his head up this week please remind him that Seattle's 2nd string defense is soft, small and weak because Vince Young ran through it like a knife through butter.

[Harlan Huckleby]

VY starting to heat up

come on vince, the job is yours to grab

+1

I didn't like the look in Harrell's eyes tonight. I found myself rooting against him. Play well enough to win the job, or badly enough to lose it.

[denverYooper]

Nice catch and run by Quarless on this drive too. Hope that blast on his knee didn't damage anything. He looks like he's spent his time off in the weight room.

[swede]

Damn shame about Q's knee injury costing him valuable years of football...for a tight end he has hands made with some non-stonelike fleshy material.

[Joemailman]

OK, I'm sold on Young. He at least has the awareness and the legs to get something out of nothing

Npw you're talkin'. :tup:

[pbmax]

Nice catch and run by Quarless on this drive too. Hope that blast on his knee didn't damage anything. He looks like he's spent his time off in the weight room.

Good catch by you. I forgot his number and thought that was Bostick

[pittstang5]

Van Roten really, really, needs to work on his shotgun snaps

[pbmax]

+1

I didn't like the look in Harrell's eyes tonight. I found myself rooting against him. Play well enough to win the job, or badly enough to lose it.

If Young makes team we HAVE to get Partial back.

[red]

who the hell is that long haired guy?

[gbgary]

I vote for young.

[Joemailman]

I kind of thought Amosa would be the first Packer to score a TD tonight.
