official game day thread 10/26. packers-saints

[pbmax]

It's not nearly as annoying as always hearing about "Katrina" every fucking time something is in NO.

GUMBO!

[ThunderDan]

It's not nearly as annoying as always hearing about "Katrina" every fucking time something is in NO.

Have you Ever been to NO and seen the destruction? It was truly amazing.

[Packgator]

I think Matthews hurt himself chasing that down.

Hope he was just tired!!

[Rutnstrut]

Have you Ever been to NO and seen the destruction? It was truly amazing.

There is destruction and death EVERYWHERE, that doesn't mean it has to be brought up at every sporting event.

[ThunderDan]

Remember when the schedule came out and every one was scared of getting the NFC South. ATL, NO, CAR and TB finally getting thinks in order. Looks like things have changed so far into the regular season.

[Rastak]

There is destruction and death EVERYWHERE, that doesn't mean it has to be brought up at every sporting event.


When was the last destruction and death in good ole Green Bay?

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 14m14 minutes ago
Matthews is back in, so disregard Dr. Demovsky's diagnosis from a mile up. @RobDemovsky

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 11m11 minutes ago
For those who tuned in late, #Packers RG T.J. Lang left the game with an ankle injury after the first offensive series and has not returned.

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 21s21 seconds ago
#Packers have declared RG T.J. Lang OUT for the rest of the game.

[ThunderDan]

Holding NO.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

More horrible tackling!

[pbmax]

Good grief House had him dead to rights.

[Teamcheez1]

Good to see all those halftime adjustments by the defense.

[pbmax]

Hawk with nice play.

[ThunderDan]

Nice wrap on the tackle attempt by House.

[Harlan Huckleby]

When was the last destruction and death in good ole Green Bay?

http://bringmethenews.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/randy-moss2.jpg

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Doesd anybody wrap up anymore? At lwast Hawk knocked him down.

[Bossman641]

Clean up the tackling secondary

[Rastak]

Holding NO.

I said "Holding Bucs" most of the afternoon....good luck getting it called everytime it happens.....

[Harlan Huckleby]

This is one of those painful games when packer defense is on field whole game

[Packgator]

I've been through 5 or 6 CAT 1 or 2 hurricanes. Not fun. CAT 3 and higher.... I'd leave town.

[Harlan Huckleby]

take that, motherfuckers

[pittstang5]

they'll go for it

[ThunderDan]

The short yardage D has been great this year.

[Harlan Huckleby]

mama mia!

[Rastak]

Stuffed...

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Why can we not do THAT more often?

[pbmax]

There you go D. Nicely done on pedestrian play calls. Let's keep them in short yardage the rest of the night.

[ThunderDan]

Way to hold D.

[Bossman641]

Guion is a short yardage god

[Packgator]

Jason Wilde ‏@jasonjwilde 14m14 minutes ago
Matthews is back in, so disregard Dr. Demovsky's diagnosis from a mile up. @RobDemovsky

He was just gassed. Did a lot of full speed running for that sack.

[gbgary]

finally stopped a run.

[Guiness]

Wow, nicely done. Whatever problems they have, the defense does well in sort yardage situations.

[MadScientist]

A defensive stop! What a concept.

Now get a TD here.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I felt the big mo shift. Or it could be gas.

[red]

Great couple of plays there by the big uglies

[ThunderDan]

Why can we not do THAT more often?

We have done that a lot this year. For some reason our 3rd and4th down short yardage D has been awesome his year.

[pittstang5]

cut and run...good god

[pbmax]

Time for Starks.

EDIT: Worst timed commentary EVER!

[red]

We have done that a lot this year. For some reason our 3rd and4th down short yardage D has been awesome his year.

Maybe someone on the staff should take note of this and figure out why it looks so good it those situations, and so horrible on first and second downs

[ThunderDan]

Another 2 or 3 broken tackles by Lacy.

[red]

Lacy just will not go down

[ThunderDan]

6 Saints touch Lacy there

[pittstang5]

fuck, Rogers is hurt, Hamstring strikes again

[red]

Packer hamstring just hit a-rod

Done fornyear, career in peril

[Guiness]

Thought Rodgers was just going to run out of bounds but he turned it upfield for the 1st down.

Oh shit. You just know that's a hamstring. Pray for a cramp

[Harlan Huckleby]

Rodgers just became Lynn Dickey

[pittstang5]

FUCK!!!!!!

[Rastak]

Hammy....

[red]

Fuck me

Fuck quarless

[ThunderDan]

Ouch... That hurts. We need to get 3 there,

[pbmax]

That was terrible bounce luck.

[pittstang5]

get out the icey hot

[Harlan Huckleby]

catchable ball

[Rutnstrut]

So much for RELAX.

[Teamcheez1]

They have scored every time they have had it.

Four trips to the red zone tonight. 3 FG's and 1 Interception. That is not good offense.

[pittstang5]

That was terrible bounce luck.

I said it early, the Football Gods are with NO tonight, another lucky break

[MadScientist]

Fuck you Q!. Catch the damn ball.

[Packgator]

Packer hamstring just hit a-rod

Done fornyear, career in peril

Obviously the last thing I want is a AR injury....but that had me laughing.

[Packgator]

Thought Rodgers was just going to run out of bounds but he turned it upfield for the 1st down.

Oh shit. You just know that's a hamstring. Pray for a cramp

That's no cramp

[red]

Rodgers just became Lynn Dickey

Just as long as he doesnt become randy wright

[Harlan Huckleby]

Put Flynn out there

[pittstang5]

we're screwed, Defense just can't keep up.

[ThunderDan]

Fuck.

[Teamcheez1]

The keystone cops strike again in the secondary tonight

[denverYooper]

Tramon almost got there.

[MadScientist]

Shit. Defense smells a Rodgers injury and turns into dog shit.

[pbmax]

Don't let the guy get behind you they said 5,000 times in the offseason.

[red]

My god

CAn chris collinsworth ever just shut the fuck up?

He reminds me of a really shitty stand up comedian, who is the only one laughing at his own shit

[KalamazooPackerFan]

That one is on Hyde......can't let that guy get that far behind you.

[ThunderDan]

Burnett gets there on that throw.

[Rutnstrut]

How is it they put NO pressure on Breeze?

[Harlan Huckleby]

ARod looks like a kid who had his puppy poisoned

[Teamcheez1]

we're screwed, Defense just can't keep up.

That is where your offense and MVP need to lead the way, and so far, they are not.

[esoxx]

Tramon almost got there.

Worst four words a DB will ever hear.

[pbmax]

You give the guy a free release off the line so you can play off and he still gets behind you. You have to know WHY you are playing the D you just called.

[Teamcheez1]

Drew Brees 22-27 on pass attempts. He will have almost 40 completions before the night is over.

[red]

Everyone just remember

This is a saints team who has sucked giant horse cock all year

We seem to have a good ability of playing down a lot

[esoxx]

My god

CAn chris collinsworth ever just shut the fuck up?

He reminds me of a really shitty stand up comedian, who is the only one laughing at his own shit

And gravel voice is annoying as hell.

[pittstang5]

I figured NO would come out of the half and take the lead, they were just delayed.

[pbmax]

Drew Brees 22-27 on pass attempts. He will have almost 40 completions before the night is over.

I care about that less if they are all short.

[red]

Burnett gets there on that throw.

LOL

yeah, no

I disagree 10000000000000%

Burnett would have managed ti work his way to the other side of the field and be in the backfield waiting for the screen

[Harlan Huckleby]

Well, they've been barely missing the long ball all game

[pbmax]

Did anyone notice, did the Pack switch to 3-4 in the middle of that drive after the long run?

[denverYooper]

How is it they put NO pressure on Breeze?

Kept 2 TE in to block.

[Packgator]

Saints hitting a couple long ones is to be expected (even before the game starts). It's all part of playing in New Orleans. They probably have another one coming. One legged AR needs to out score them. Normally wouldn't be to worried.... But the bad leg has me scared.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Everyone just remember

This is a saints team who has sucked giant horse cock all year

Three of their losses are by total of 6 points. Way better than record, undefeated at home.

[denverYooper]

I care about that less if they are all short.

This. Brees was mostly dinking and dunking until that.

[Guiness]

What is with this field? Looks like it has frost on it!

[denverYooper]

PUT PEPPERS BACK IN!!!

[red]

And gravel voice is annoying as hell.

Yup, by far my least favorite announcer. Even hate him more then aikmen

How did this pencil dick pussy get a job in sports anyways?

[pbmax]

They have to start actually catching the close passes.

[Harlan Huckleby]

PUT PEPPERS BACK IN!!!
qft

[Packgator]

And gravel voice is annoying as hell.

I've know Collinsworth since high school. I'll let him know you guys disapprove.

[pittstang5]

yeah, i'd challenge that

[pbmax]

Fake injury to buy time?

[Harlan Huckleby]

they lose this challenge

[pittstang5]

they lose this challenge

I hope so

[pbmax]

I've know Collinsworth since high school. I'll let him know you guys disapprove.

Collingsworth is fine. Its the producers not the announcers. They don't get to be on the air unless they plug the stars, regardless of events on the field.

[esoxx]

I've know Collinsworth since high school. I'll let him know you guys disapprove.

Please do.

[Rutnstrut]

Yup, by far my least favorite announcer. Even hate him more then aikmen

How did this pencil dick pussy get a job in sports anyways?

Well he was a pretty damn good football player.

[pittstang5]

Again - Football Gods

[red]

I've know Collinsworth since high school. I'll let him know you guys disapprove.

Next time you see him, tell him to SHUT THE FUCK UP

[red]

Thats horse shit

Fuck replay

[denverYooper]

I usually like PackerUpdate, but he's in full downer mode tonight.

[pbmax]

Why the FUCK would you run behind Lane Taylor?

[Teamcheez1]

Absolutely pathetic.

[red]

GOD DAMNIT

THAT DEEP FUCKING HANDOFF AGAIN ON A SHORT YARDAGE PLAY

[KalamazooPackerFan]

They run behind the 2nd string guard instead of Sitton?

[Teamcheez1]

Rob Ryan and his terrible defense have MM figured out tonight.

[Packgator]

Next time you see him, tell him to SHUT THE FUCK UP

I do each time I see him.

[Guiness]

If there was a time to audible out of a call, handing the ball to Lacy on that play was it.

[Rastak]

The bigger question is why would you go for it from there?

[ThunderDan]

We got screwed on that replay there. Feet hit when Adams had the first down.

[Rutnstrut]

They run behind the 2nd string guard instead of Sitton?

Yup, that stubby is a fucking genius.

[red]

Rob Ryan and his terrible defense have MM figured out tonight.

Fat mike is calling a pretty shitty game so far after the two big plays early

[Packgator]

The bigger question is why would you go for it from there?

That's what I was thinking. Guess he doesn't think Packers can stop them.

[denverYooper]

Like how Collinsworth links the INT to Rodgers's hammy. Come on man.

[pbmax]

The bigger question is why would you go for it from there?

Half yard shouldn't be hard to get.

[Teamcheez1]

We got screwed on that replay there. Feet hit when Adams had the first down.

We've scored 16 friggin points tonight. Don't blame the replay.

[pbmax]

Like how Collinsworth links the INT to Rodgers's hammy. Come on man.

It has affected his throwing. Couple have been short.

[pittstang5]

Sorry Gents, but I do believe this game is over. Packers can't do anything Off or Def. Screw the clock and there's still time left. You just have to know, when everything goes wrong, there's no coming back from it.

[Packgator]

Can't do anything about that. Just good offense there.

[esoxx]

Like how Collinsworth links the INT to Rodgers's hammy. Come on man.

He sucks goat dick.

[Rastak]

Half yard shouldn't be hard to get.

Agreed, but if you miss........I guess I'm a bit conservative.....

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think TWill has a point

[red]

Hey guess what, tramon doest get off the ground again. Maybe 4 inches that time

Get him off the field if he cant jump anymore. Its become a liability

[Packgator]

It has affected his throwing. Couple have been short.

It affects you.... You are always thinking about it.

[ThunderDan]

We've scored 16 friggin points tonight. Don't blame the replay.

So their feet didn't touch? We were only down 7 at that point no matter how many FG we have kicked in the game.

[Teamcheez1]

Brees with 83% pass completion.

[Packgator]

Agreed, but if you miss........I guess I'm a bit conservative.....

That wasn't a good time to go for it.

[Rutnstrut]

Here I thought I missed The walking Dead tonight, but nope the real zombies are the Packer D and coaching staff.

[Teamcheez1]

So their feet didn't touch? We were only down 7 at that point no matter how many FG we have kicked in the game.

Numbers don't lie. 16 point is 16 points.

[Bossman641]

Rodgers has no step through on his throws

[denverYooper]

It has affected his throwing. Couple have been short.

Sure. But the throw on the INT wasn't. Q has to catch that.

[pbmax]

Now that was a nice catch by Lacy.

[Harlan Huckleby]

That wasn't a good time to go for it.

Nah, it's a track meet. D can only slow Brees, not stop him very often

[Rutnstrut]

If Lacy were just a tick faster, he would be unstoppable.

[pbmax]

Sure. But the throw on the INT wasn't. Q has to catch that.

Yep.

[Packgator]

Rodgers has no step through on his throws

Definitely injured. Makes it very tough.

[Teamcheez1]

Quarless with hands of stone tonight.

[red]

Quarless with hands of stone tonight.

Soooo

About normal then?

[ThunderDan]

Numbers don't lie. 16 point is 16 points.

And we don't have time to score any more points? I don't get your logic. We can score TDs the rest of the way in. We aren't given FGs just because we have kicked them earlier.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Quarless with hands of stone tonight.
I blamed the interception near endzone on Q. But after seeing replay, I think the DB just made a great play.

[Packgator]

If Lacy were just a tick faster, he would be unstoppable.

A tick faster would make him illegal.

[Packgator]

I blamed the interception near endzone on Q. But after seeing replay, I think the DB just made a great play.

Saints making a lot of good plays tonight. They are tough when playing like this.

[pbmax]

Bulaga gets overpowered.

[Teamcheez1]

And we don't have time to score any more points? I don't get your logic. We can score TDs the rest of the way in. We aren't given FGs just because we have kicked them earlier.

16 points is 16 points. Numbers don't lie.

AR with another INT.

[denverYooper]

Jeebs

[red]

Yup.

DAGGER

[Harlan Huckleby]

game, set, match

[ThunderDan]

Ugh.... Another tipped ball not going our way.

[pbmax]

Wrong game for the injury bug to hit.

[MadScientist]

Fuck it, just put Flynn in there. Let Rodgers get healthy after the bye.

[ThunderDan]

Brees with 83% pass completion.

This is the biggest problem.

[pbmax]

Need a turnover in the worst possible way.

[Packgator]

Wrong game for the injury bug to hit.

Yep. Needed every bit of a 100% AR in this game...just to have a chance at the end. Not over yet....but probably not a team in the league would have much of a chance against Saints tonight.

[red]

Look at that

You know theyre gonna run it. Put in the fucking d to stop them

[pbmax]

This is happening against ether 3-4 or, I think more likely, the 4-3. Peppers at DT with two other lineman.

[ThunderDan]

D, you know they are going to run and chew up clock. Put in your base defense and stop them.

[pbmax]

That was a terrible call. Cooks slowed down.

[Rastak]

Shit call.

[red]

Um, whats that penalty?

[ThunderDan]

That is a horrible call.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Bad bounces and bad calls......can't win a game when that happens.

[Packgator]

Then you get calls going against you. That was a terrible call. Not even close.

[Freak Out]

The D needed to show up.....the home cooking doesn't help.

[Harlan Huckleby]

WORST CALL EVER

[Teamcheez1]

McGinn was right. We should have traded House before the game began.

[wist43]

This game came down to coaching...

Dunderdummy and MM had their typical nonsense on display. MM running on 1st down, twice, on 1st and goals; and then throwing to a DE?? And of course Dunderdummy puked up his predictable furball.

I thought we had a decent chance to win this game if the coaching were up to par - but that of course was asking too much.

[Harlan Huckleby]

The hunt for the wild card begins

Funny that you haven't had much to say lately. Until now.

Welcome back, your 4 week absence was noticed during our winning streak.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Bad bounces and bad calls......

Which is why nobody goes undefeated

I predict you will be healthy and available to post for the next two weeks (loss + bye), possibly longer if they don't go on a winning streak after that.

[Packgator]

Bad bounces and bad calls......can't win a game when that happens.

Nope. It happens. Regroup.... and move on. Saints were too desperate tonight. Bad luck that it was the Packers turn to play them.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

More on McCarthy that Capers this game, I think. His usual outsmarting himself.

[Rutnstrut]

I'm out, been a long day and have to work 14 hours tomorrow.

[esoxx]

The Vikings put up a better fight against the Saints this season in the dome.

[red]

Thats it, I'm out

Nite all

Nope. Nothing would have mattered tonight. Saints were favorites for a reason.

[denverYooper]

Matt Bowen ‏@MattBowen41 2m2 minutes ago
DBs are taught to use the same technique that drew the PI call. That's at every level of the game.

[pbmax]

That is the old Bubba Franks play except I am not sure he fell down to ensure he was ignored.

[channtheman]

Double period asshole. XD

Well, the Packers continued the trend of shitty primetime games this year. Has their been a decent game on primetime this year? Maybe the NFL and/or NBC will switch to the World Series.

[ThunderDan]

The hunt for the wild card begins

We just need to win the Det game at home and we will be ok.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Nope. Nothing would have mattered tonight. Saints were favorites for a reason.
Not buying it. Stubby didn't have his team ready to play and he wasn't ready.

[Packgator]

Very good time for the bye week.

[Teamcheez1]

Double period asshole. XD

Well, the Packers continued the trend of shitty primetime games this year. Has their been a decent game on primetime this year? Maybe the NFL and/or NBC will switch to the World Series.

It just seems the Packers come out and play scared with vanilla offense/defense. They had a chance to prove they belonged there tonight.

[denverYooper]

Not buying it. Stubby didn't have his team ready to play and he wasn't ready.

And Rodgers injured his hammy before throwing a clanger INT.

[Teamcheez1]

QB ratings so far:

AR 89.3

DB 138.4

[Maxie the Taxi]

Sean Payton has been publicly criticizing the officiating at their prior game all week long. Payback is a bitch.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think the Packers needed their best DBs to compete.

The PAcker injury situation overall is pretty NFL typical, but above is true.

[esoxx]

This game came down to coaching...

Bad form.

[Packgator]

Not buying it. Stubby didn't have his team ready to play and he wasn't ready.

Very little could have been done to avoid this loss. We've all seen this result play out hundreds and hundreds of times.... in all sports. Result would have been the same no matter who they played tonight.

[Teamcheez1]

We made Rob Ryan look like a real defensive coordinator tonight.

[channtheman]

We have had 2 potential TD drops tonight. One cost us 4 points, the other 7.

[Rastak]

That was funny.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Very little could have been done to avoid this loss. We've all seen this result play out hundreds and hundreds of times.... in all sports. Result would have been the same no matter who they played tonight.
Why play then? Why be a fan? Nope. They could have won if they had played smarter.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I'd put Flynn in

[channtheman]

I thought going for it was a good call. I thought running it was unbelievably stupid.

[Packgator]

I think the Packers needed their best DBs to compete.

The PAcker injury situation overall is pretty NFL typical, but above is true.

Packers would needed a absolute perfect game to win this one. Didn't happen. Enjoy the bye and come back ready to make a Super Bowl run.

[channtheman]

I'd put Flynn in

Me too. Game is over, why risk any further injury to Rodgers.

[pbmax]

Not buying it. Stubby didn't have his team ready to play and he wasn't ready.

So the lead in most of the first half was just an illusion?

[denverYooper]

Ben Fennell ‏@TheXOsOfLife 1m1 minute ago
Rodgers making every throw from inside pocket.. Hasn't escaped tackle box since he tweeted hamstring

[ThunderDan]

I thought going for it was a good call. I thought running it was unbelievably stupid.

Yeah, especially with the personnel that they had in.

[Teamcheez1]

So the lead in most of the first half was just an illusion?

Yes. I think it was a mirage. Our O was struggling and the Saints O was just getting ready for the knockout punch. Never felt we could sustain or keep up with the Saints the way we were playing.

[Bossman641]

Good to see some of the negative posters back in here again. Things were getting a little too rosy.

[Maxie the Taxi]

So the lead in most of the first half was just an illusion?
No. They should have been ahead by even more. An onside kick? Peppers in the backfield? Giving Brees all day to throw? Game plan was for shit.

[Bossman641]

Yes. I think it was a mirage. Our O was struggling and the Saints O was just getting ready for the knockout punch. Never felt we could sustain or keep up with the Saints the way we were playing.

Ya, I guess those red zone struggles had nothing to do with it :talk:

[Teamcheez1]

Good to see some of the negative posters back in here again. Things were getting a little too rosy.

Losing by 21 is worthy of negative posting.

[Harlan Huckleby]

packers working on clock

[ThunderDan]

I actually like the check downs. Unfortunately it's mostly because they are up 21.

[Packgator]

Why play then? Why be a fan? Nope. They could have won if they had played smarter.

Packers came thinking they were going to win. I watched as a fan thinking that too. Didn't play out that way. Yes....there were mistakes and blunders. But that's what happens in a game like this. The Saints caused this loss.....not the Packers. Like I said....an absolute perfect game by the Packers is all that could have given them a chance.

[Teamcheez1]

Ya, I guess those red zone struggles had nothing to do with it :talk:

You said it, not me. We got our asses whooped tonight. We get two weeks to brood over this before the next game.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Last call!

[ThunderDan]

Now it's 23 points.

I know that is a garbage time TD but we scored which could make this a one score game now.

[Bossman641]

Losing by 21 is worthy of negative posting.

Hiding during the winning streak is worthy of no posting?

[pbmax]

No. They should have been ahead by even more. An onside kick? Peppers in the backfield? Giving Brees all day to throw? Game plan was for shit.

You are viewing the first half through the lens of the second half. They had pressure on Brees in the first half, remember the sacks?

The game plan stinks because it didn't work, except they had several leads. But even if I accept it, it doesn't mean what your original statement proclaimed: the team was indeed ready.

[esoxx]

Uh-oh, bossman has called out team cheez for negative posting in a game thread. That's 15 yards and loss of a down.

[pbmax]

Damn, I thought Hyde had gotten it back.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Packers came thinking they were going to win. I watched as a fan thinking that too. Didn't play out that way. Yes....there were mistakes and blunders. But that's what happens in a game like this. The Saints caused this loss.....not the Packers. Like I said....an absolute perfect game by the Packers is all that could have given them a chance.
You made my point. The Packers were overconfident. Didn't take the Saints seriously.

[denverYooper]

No. They should have been ahead by even more. An onside kick? Peppers in the backfield? Giving Brees all day to throw? Game plan was for shit.

Peppers was out wide. By the way, he didn't allow the defense to intercept the ball.

Maybe they should give him another look there.

[ThunderDan]

Another shitty bounce goes the Saints way.

[Bossman641]

How did Hyde not recover that

[Maxie the Taxi]

You are viewing the first half through the lens of the second half. They had pressure on Brees in the first half, remember the sacks?

The game plan stinks because it didn't work, except they has several leads. But even if I accept it, it doesn't mean what your original statement proclaimed: the team was indeed ready.
We'll have to disagree. I didn't see it.

[Teamcheez1]

If you told me that AR had 418 yards passing I would have thought win tonight.

[pbmax]

You made my point. The Packers were overconfident. Didn't take the Saints seriously.

You think those calls were to taunt the Saints? They were called because the Packers thought they needed to make some big plays on the road.

You said it, not me. We got our asses whooped tonight. We get two weeks to brood over this before the next game.

I don't know about you but I won't brood for 2 weeks. My life is a little more interesting than that.

[pbmax]

That was a bad play by Nick Perry on that one.

I'm with you. I have to get up and go to work tomorrow to support the wife, 2 kids, and 2 dogs.

I always have a little more pep in my step when the Packers win. It will be a distant memory which I hope will be erased after the bye.

While the O did sputter in the second half. The D gave up 44 and only stopped NO once.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Peppers was out wide. By the way, he didn't allow the defense to intercept the ball.

Maybe they should give him another look there.
Peppers started out in the backfield. Then went wide. If he's our best wideout, we're in real trouble.

[pbmax]

Well, the calls for Capers head will commence again now that Collingworth publicly called out Peyton saying he had a bead on Capers tendencies.

[Bossman641]

Seems like the defense either tackles excellently or terribly, there seems to be no in between

[ThunderDan]

Too bad we got the Saints in NO and not in GB.

[smuggler]

What happened on the two Rodgers INTs? I was at work. :C

[pbmax]

Bulaga is hurt again. Fell over a pile.

And if he catches it everyone is talking about what a genius MM is.

[Maxie the Taxi]

You think those calls were to taunt the Saints? They were called because the Packers thought they needed to make some big plays on the road.
That's exactly what I didn't like. Play your game. Don't play theirs.

[pbmax]

Tip drill.

[Teamcheez1]

Bulaga is hurt again. Fell over a pile.

At this rate we'll be drafting another tackle in the first round instead of ILB.

[Packgator]

You made my point. The Packers were overconfident. Didn't take the Saints seriously.

Perhaps. But I doubt no one was more aware of what they were facing tonight than the Packers. Especially the veterans and coaches. Now they all know.

[ThunderDan]

What happened on the two Rodgers INTs? I was at work. :C

Both were deflections off of the receiver.

[pbmax]

That's exactly what I didn't like. Play your game. Don't play theirs.

Peppers was weird, but they could have been working on that all offseason.

Its normal for M3 to kick onside to shake things up.

[smuggler]

Any injuries other than Lang?

LOL. You're making my point too. Stubby blew it. ...Got to hit the sack.

[Packgator]

Peppers probably could have been an all-pro TE if he would have gone that route back when.

[pbmax]

Any injuries other than Lang?

Rodgers hamstring.

[pbmax]

LOL. You're making my point too. Stubby blew it. ...Got to hit the sack.

And you are making mine. You have to break tendency or the defense gets to leverage completely against your favorite plays. Which renders your favorite plays unproductive.

[Teamcheez1]

Glad this one's over. Time to heal up and get ready for Chicago. A must win game.
