More Banjo: vs. Steelers

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 10m
ILB AJ Hawk confirmed #Packers let Steelers score last TD. Why not on first down? "I don’t know. That’s a good question."

[pbmax]

Mike Neal and Ryan Taylor shook off their injuries to return.

Brad Jones also came back in but Lattimore still got some snaps late.

[pbmax]

EDS takes one for the O Lineman:

Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 32m
Barclay said he didn't false start at the end. EDS took blame for snapping ball late due to crowd noise/chaos of situation.

[pbmax]

The lost 3 second on the last play?

Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 34m
Dietrich-Smith, on the umpire at the end of the game not letting them snap ball: "I don’t know what that guy was doing out there."

[red]

don jumped early and still couldn't push his guy back enough to get starks into the endzone

thats nice

[CaptainKickass]

Hey, didn't banjo make a play today? Thought I heard his name once. Or was that mention for being shitty?

That's what it looked like, because it looked like Lang was early too.

Lang was WAY earlier but there was a free runner from outside Barclay.

i saw him in the picture at the end of one of the long returns. he wasn't in on the tackle, he was just there

He made the tackle on the fake punt.

[ThunderDan]

Special teams cost the Pack a at least 10 if not 14 points today. Flynn and the O couldn't make up for it along with their 2 turnovers.

The D had a pretty respectable game, all things considered. ST + pick 6 + late fumble + giveup TD put them in a lot of tough spots.

[pbmax]

Its also a measure of how limited Matthews has been this year that they barely missed him in the second half. Daniels is a beast.

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 52s
So McCarthy unaware #Lions had lost when he addressed team post-game, gave them wrong playoff scenario. "Frankly, I'm embarrassed by it."

Its been a tough year.

So not #Packers-#Bears on @SNFonNBC. RT @AdamSchefter: Cowboys-Eagles will be flexed to prime time next Sunday night, per NFL official.

[denverYooper]

Makes sense, IIRC either way that will be for the NFCE crown.

i guess by our standards it was respectable

they gave up 343 yards and 38 point

343 in this era is more than respectable. ST and pick 6 put 17 to 20 points on the board. D responsible for 18-21 points.

[red]

oh, and we gave up 150 some yards to the 31st ranked rushing team

[pbmax]

I like this kid. I hope they stick him on the right side if Matthews is out.

Nick Perry: "It’s an undisciplined play. I jumped, and they capitalized on the play. You know, I’ve got nothing. It’s a bum play."

So what happened on the Eagles final TD?

I had to run right after the game, and was trying to pack the car. When it got to 4th down I assumed the Eagles would boot an FG, so I ran a load out and came back to see if the Pack could get down the field...and instead I see that they scored a TD! Play-by-play shows a penalty on Nick Perry for encroachment? He lined up in the neutral zone and handed them a first down???

No, he jumped for no reason.

[Guiness]

So now we have two incredibly different views on who will be under center for the Pack next week.

story 1: Pack didn't know if he'd play or not until Friday, certainly implying he was close and next week should be a given

story 2: ESPN telling us it wasn't even close, so next week would be in doubt

which is it?

a)Some real damage control or b) Aaron Rodgers will be back.

I don't like the option b) in any bet scenario.

After splitting snaps with Flynn on Wednesday, Rodgers didn't take many snaps Thursday. That would seem to indicate he wasn't that close. The fact that the Packers didn't make an announcement until Friday probably isn't that significant.

As it should.

Yea against the other teams they avg. < 80 Y/G.

Kick bloody shit Vs us.

Everybody runs including Big Ben.

[woodbuck27]

LOL

Such a shock.

[Freak Out]

This. One thing I will say is this team didn't give up. Even when all hope was lost after the TO.

[Freak Out]

Its GB...the fans are debauched and rowdy.

[Fritz]

So is it better to beat the Bears and get thrashed by a wildcard team at home or to lose and get a draft pick about 7 spots higher?

In their defense (both teams) the Steelers have been a different offense since Bell and their O line has been healthy and stable. They REALLY struggled earlier this year.

The playoffs are always better except for draft picks.

[pbmax]

Matthews has a repeat injury on the same hand. Score one for wearing the club longer.

[pbmax]

Hyde hurt his shoulder on the kickoff return:


Hyde, who injured his shoulder on the play, almost singlehandedly made up for a special teams group that got a punt blocked (and were fortunate that they retained possession after it), gave up a pair of big returns, allowed a fake punt to go for 30 yards (with a 15-yard Jake Stoneburner penalty added on) that led to a touchdown and watched second-year linebacker Nick Perry commit a stunningly foolish offsides penalty in the decisive closing moments.

[pbmax]

Quarless-Flynn collision that led to the Pick 6:


McCarthy said that if anyone deserved blame for the play, “it’s probably more my fault. That particular play, we hadn’t run that particular backside-blocking scheme until that point in the game. I had given Matt a reminder, we were in the run-pass selection; the safety came down late. That’s probably a little bit of an example of a guy not having a lot of reps in that particular footwork, and it cost us. Andrew’s doing his job. He’s blocking the backside linebacker. Frankly, you can put that on me.”

Sooooooooo...... Yes?

If we are going to piss away the season by shutting AROD down, as it appears TT is doing........I'm just fine with the draft picks
Helplessly going into the playoffs with Flynn....I'll pass

Sooooooooo...... Yes?

Yes. Tanking games are for the Colts.

Or treating the face of our franchise on defense the same as the face of our franchise on offense. :?
