Official drink up, it's the Patriots come to Green Bay game day thread

[Harlan Huckleby]

I'd recommend no tackling Gronkowski high

[red]

How many times has ed said there was no foul on the play. Was that 3

Guy like seeing himself on tv

FUCKING TACKLE GOD DAMNIT!!!

someone needs to teach these guys something

[pbmax]

Not the best. At least he went down. Don't know why they always go immediately to the ground.

[ThunderDan]

Poor tackling but still would have been a first down.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Lambeau mystique on the line

[pbmax]

I'd recommend no tackling Gronkowski high

That would be OK if they held on or slipped to a leg. But going to the knees not a good second option.

[Packgator]

Cover everyone. Why is there always a wide open guy?

NE has a very good offense.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Goddammit,after all these years of piss poor tackling, is it too much to ask to at least a little improvement!!!

[pbmax]

Perry sighting. He would have made it before the second read.

If there had been a second read.

[pbmax]

That's on Burnett, he just rolled off him.

Nice call Ed!

[red]

That little black ref sure wanted to get some tv time

[pbmax]

hawk, Dix and Peppers were having a nice discussion about the two wings/TEs on the D left. Like the TO.

[red]

NE has a very good offense.

Its not just ne

Seems to happen alot to our d

[pbmax]

If Clay hits an inside counter, Solder will fall down.

[red]

Come on d, tighten up

[Bretsky]

GB...Timeout...hello.............

[pbmax]

Daniels went offside

[smuggler]

Brady sure seems to be having an easier go of it than Rodgers today. :/

[red]

Oh fuck off ed

[Bretsky]

DAMMIT.stupid

And for the love of God MM you look like Ray Rhodes chewing gum as the clock runs down

[pittstang5]

Just delaying the inevitable

[pbmax]

GB...Timeout...hello.............

NE called it

[red]

Fuck you tramon

Thats it, time to kick it up a notch, wheres the rum

[Bretsky]

be nice to have thirty five more seconds on the clock

[pittstang5]

Awesome coverage Tramon.

[Teamcheez1]

If AR and the Offense quits trading FG's for TD's, we have a shot to win this game. NE doesn't blow it in the red zone like we have today.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Wow, sometimes the packers D just looks really really bad.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Who would have thought that given three shots in endzone that Brady would connect on one?

[red]

Wow, sometimes the packers D just looks really really bad.

They usually do

They just look a lot better when the offense has a 30 point lead

[pittstang5]

We gotta get something, before the half. NE is going to come out of the half and score 7. I know it.

[ThunderDan]

Yes because the other teams offense doesn't try at all. We should stop them every time.

[Packgator]

If AR and the Offense quits trading FG's for TD's, we have a shot to win this game. NE doesn't blow it in the red zone like we have today.

Packers on pace to win 32-28

[SMBASS]

Shitting the bed in the redzone time after time along with our normal piss-poor defense starting to show up isn't going to get it done. We need to force a couple of turnovers and start scoring TD's when we have the opportunities.

[red]

How come their kicker can kick the ball into the south endzone, and ours has to squib it?

Its not like our kicker doesnt have a strong leg

[pbmax]

I think, but am not sure, that the NE defense on the red zone throw to Jordy is a trap for the slant. Drop the CB and move the LB over. You throw it, he catches it, he gets killed.

[Bretsky]

NE called it

didn't we just watch thirty seconds mile off the clock when we could have used the TO ??

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Screen play!

[Rutnstrut]

Lattimore done for the season, possibly career ending.

[Guiness]

Hello my pretties - getting in, as predicted, right around the half. Just re-read the OP, it's surprisingly coherent. I guess that little honey from the mail room that proof-read it for me really does have a college degree:huh:

Look like this is a heck of a close game. What's been going on out there?

[pbmax]

Audible to Starks in the backfield.

[ThunderDan]

Nice use of the RB in the passing game.

[Guiness]

And that was a beautiful throw on the run to Starks!

[red]

didn't we just watch thirty seconds mile off the clock when we could have used the TO ??

Clock management is not one of fat mikes better qualities

[Bossman641]

James "Moss" Starks

[pittstang5]

Waste!

[red]

God damnit

No its not a good fucking timeout

We need that to stop the clock

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Are the announcers physically attracted to Revis?

[Bossman641]

Blowing a timeout there is inexcusable

[Teamcheez1]

9 plays in the red zone for -4 yards. Not a pretty stat.

[Packgator]

Waste!

That was excellent use of time out.

[pittstang5]

Defense sucks - the usual

[red]

YEAH BABY!!!!!!

WOW

[pbmax]

How come their kicker can kick the ball into the south endzone, and ours has to squib it?

Its not like our kicker doesnt have a strong leg

Not sure. NE has great KO return team though. Slocum probably trying to get field position out of it.



WWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTT!!

[Bossman641]

Blowing a timeout there is inexcusable

NVM, better to get the correct play called

[Rutnstrut]

Fucking A right.

[ThunderDan]

didn't we just watch thirty seconds mile off the clock when we could have used the TO ??

Stop your bitching. Just wanted to make sure NE had time left after our TD. Lol.

[Harlan Huckleby]

i think jordy outta bounds

[Packgator]

God damnit

No its not a good fucking timeout

We need that to stop the clock

I worked out pretty good.

[pbmax]

9 plays in the red zone for -4 yards. Not a pretty stat.

Screw the red zone :lol:

[red]

Thats close, but the ball hit the pylon oneframe before the knee went down

Should stand

[ThunderDan]

God damnit

No its not a good fucking timeout

We need that to stop the clock

Better to have you ducks in a row and score.

[Striker]

That's so huge.

Jordy!

[Harlan Huckleby]

too close to overturn

[pittstang5]

nice, go for two?

[red]

Fyi

A-rod at the half

14-23, 282 yards. 2 tds 0 ints

[pittstang5]

nice, go for two?

Guess not

[Packgator]

Blowing a timeout there is inexcusable

What? That was excellent use. Play clock was going to zero.

[esoxx]

Fuck Reavis Island!

[Guiness]

Crazy, crazy catch and run by Jordy. The body control at the end of the play to stay in bounds was amazing and a GREAT block by Cobb to shake Revis off his 6.

[pbmax]

Not only did it likely hit the pylon while he was inbounds it absolutely crossed the plane before it hit the pylon for a score.

[red]

I thought that was our last TO

[Packgator]

Fyi

A-rod at the half

14-23, 282 yards. 2 tds 0 ints

Just another day at Lambeau.

[SMBASS]

I guess the key to the Packers scoring TD's is to never get the ball into the redzone. Hell of a play by Jordy to get that one in.

[Packgator]

Jordy is so good.

[Rutnstrut]

This team would be soooo screwed without Jordy. IMO, losing him would hurt almost as much as Rodgers.

[pbmax]

Five offensive drives, 2 TDs 3 FGs. No Masthay.

[Packgator]

No punts for Packers.

[woodbuck27]

My thoughts on that catch.

There... cover that.

Packers 23 - Pats 14.

Aaron Rodgers 289 yards through the air and 2 TD's.

[pbmax]

This team would be soooo screwed without Jordy. IMO, losing him would hurt almost as much as Rodgers.

Do you write fanfic or something?

[Packgator]

This team would be soooo screwed without Jordy. IMO, losing him would hurt almost as much as Rodgers.

No doubt. He's an absolute superstar.

[pbmax]

My thoughts on that catch.

There... cover that.


You got it Woodie. I am having a beer in honor of this post.

[Bossman641]

Fyi

A-rod at the half

14-23, 282 yards. 2 tds 0 ints

Don't forget though. BB is a defensive and all around genius. MM is just a fat idiot and the game passed Capers by 15 years ago

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Im guessing we see more of that play in 2nd half. Now lets see if MM can make some adjustments to loosen up that coverage. And let's see if Mr Dunderdummy can make adjustments in tackling mechanics. No, prolly not.

[ThunderDan]

Great first half by the O. The D started great and fell off on tackling in the second quarter.

Let's get a three and out to start the second half, let the O score another TD and let the route begin.

[esoxx]

Time to switch over to the Grey Cup pregame show.

I'm looking for the T-Cats to spring the upset in the 102nd edition of this classic event.

[woodbuck27]

It looks like Atlanta is going to go out in front of Arizona 27-10.

Atlanta first down on the Arizona 8 yard line.

[Joemailman]

This is as good as regular season football gets. This is not a must-win for the Packers, but it feels like it is. Sometimes games do live up to their billing.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Hi boys, good first half. Offense was clicking and the defense was getting to Brady on the last couple drives. There are two great ways to neutralize Gronk: Keep our offense on the field and put heavy pressure on Brady. We did both in the 1st half.

[Rutnstrut]

Do you write fanfic or something?

?

[woodbuck27]

It looks like Atlanta is going to go out in front of Arizona 27-10.

Atlanta first down on the Arizona 8 yard line.

Nope .... Atlanta advanced to the Arizona 3 yard line and Matt Ryan threw incomplete and they settled for a FG.

Atlanta 23 - Arizona 10.

[red]

So, it looks like it might be time to start talking about home field advantage througout the playoffs

[Maxie the Taxi]

So, it looks like it might be time to start talking about home field advantage througout the playoffs

I'd wait another half.:-)

[woodbuck27]

So, it looks like it might be time to start talking about home field advantage througout the playoffs

Lets get this game first. :???:

[red]

Come on d, time to earn you pay

[ThunderDan]

Yeah, they let Mason kick away and we get a touchback.

[pbmax]

Holding on Daniels

[Guiness]

Tracey Wolfson sound bite "I had a chance to talk to Bill Bellicheck coming out after halftime, he didn't say much...". Shocking, really.

[ThunderDan]

Holding on NE.

[pbmax]

Barrington having a whale of a game.

[red]

Daniels was held

[woodbuck27]

CRAP. Bill Belichick is simply shrugging that first half off.

Logging it into the ' just too many mistakes ' file.

We played our hearts out for that lead.

[red]

Damn that was close

[pbmax]

Barrington hurt Edleman

[pbmax]

Hayward and Matthews bluffed Brady into a TO. NICE!!

[Maxie the Taxi]

Barrington having a whale of a game.

Ditto.

[red]

Come on d

[pbmax]

Pressure makes All Pros inaccurate. Datone Jones!!

[red]

Yes, now lets get some breathing room

[ThunderDan]

Nice three and out.

[pbmax]

Bush starting on punt coverage.

[denverYooper]

Time to start tightening the noose.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Pressure makes All Pros inaccurate. Datone Jones!!

Ditto. pb, you're always one step ahead of me.:-)

[denverYooper]

Barrington having a whale of a game.

Yup. That's been an x-factor no one saw coming so far.

[pbmax]

Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout 14m14 minutes ago
Jordy Nelson was a two-star recruit coming out of Riley County (KS). Just a reminder that recruiting stars don't always matter.

Shoulda been a Badger.

[pbmax]

Shields reported as out with concussion.

[ThunderDan]

First down scramble.

[pittstang5]

good decision rodgers

[Guiness]

Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 1m1 minute ago
#Packers inactives:
QB Scott Tolzien
CB Demetri Goodson
LB Carl Bradford
C Garth Gerhart
TE Justin Perillo
WR Jeff Janis
DT Luther Robinson

The key to the Defense returns. *

* No seriously, I mean Nick Perry.

So with Shields and Williams healthy, Goodson is back on the bench ahead of House. Is Janis going to see the field any more this year? It doesn't look like it. Bradford is a healthy scratch, right? Don't think he gets on the field either.

[pbmax]

Tyler Dunne ‏@TyDunne 4m4 minutes ago
Third and 13 and Matthews is the dime linebacker.

[ThunderDan]

Nice out to Cobb.

[pbmax]

Now I officially hate that run.

Belichick has backed his coverage off deeper.

[Packgator]

Nice out to Cobb.

Along with a nice throw.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Lacy needs some misdirection.

[ThunderDan]

That was horrible run blocking.

[pittstang5]

Fuck!

[Harlan Huckleby]

smart play - better 3 than 0

[pittstang5]

Damn it, stalled again

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Have we had a good run since the first series?

[denverYooper]

Damn.

[pbmax]

Oof. Pushed left.

[Packgator]

That hurts.

[pittstang5]

smart play - better 3 than 0

Pft...looks like 0

[ThunderDan]

Oofff, that hurts.

[red]

Fart

Double fart

[pittstang5]

needed points.

[Packgator]

Have we had a good run since the first series?

No punts yet.... Something working. Missed FG hurts bad.

[esoxx]

Have a game Mason.

[pbmax]

Have we had a good run since the first series?

Cobb on that last drive.

[smuggler]

These outside stretches are not working. They have not worked all year long. You put the effective part of your offense at a disadvantage by continuing to lose yards with outside runs. Stop.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Again, we are leaving too many points on the field. Damn...

[pbmax]

I don;t know how you can be so open in a short zone.

[pbmax]

Dix with coverage on Gronk. That's a promotion.

[ThunderDan]

Great coverage by Ha Ha.

[pittstang5]

Gronk falls down and gets 5 yards

[pbmax]

THAT WAS run defense. Neal held his ground and got an arm on him.

[pbmax]

Peppers with inside blitz he was headed to Tom. But still oddly bad throw.

Matthews was outside in coverage and Pep was dime linebacker with 3 man line. Wacky.

[Striker]

Good hold yet again by the defense.

[red]

D really stepping up

Time for the o to do the same

[pittstang5]

Ok D, keep it up

[ThunderDan]

Another great stop by the D. Nothing said by the haters.

[esoxx]

Packers showing Belicheat how to play defense.

Wist would be rolling over in grave.

[pbmax]

This Old Spice ad is creeptastic.

[Bossman641]

Come on offense. Time to tighten the screws. Enough wide zones, get some quick hitters going

[pittstang5]

Let's see some screens

[George Cumby]

If this continues, I may have to change my vote on the Capers poll.......

[red]

I got a question.

On a punt, lets say a guy gets a finger on it but doesnt completely block the kick, and it goes like 15 or 20 yards.

Is that a live ball, the same as a muff?

[pbmax]

THERE WAS THE CUTBACK READ YOU NEEDED ALL GAME BABY!

[Bossman641]

Finally hitting the backside

[pittstang5]

Lacy. High and tight please

[Bossman641]

I got a question.

On a punt, lets say a guy gets a finger on it but doesnt completely block the kick, and it goes like 15 or 20 yards.

Is that a live ball, the same as a muff?

I believe it's a wide ball that the defense can advance

[red]

Another great stop by the D. Nothing said by the haters.

I just mentioned how the d was stepping up

[ThunderDan]

I got a question.

On a punt, lets say a guy gets a finger on it but doesnt completely block the kick, and it goes like 15 or 20 yards.

Is that a live ball, the same as a muff?

No not a live ball if it goes past the line of scrimmage.

[Bossman641]

Really thought they were going to go PA and try to hit Nelson on the home run there

[pbmax]

I got a question.

On a punt, lets say a guy gets a finger on it but doesnt completely block the kick, and it goes like 15 or 20 yards.

Is that a live ball, the same as a muff?

I think same as muff. Can be returned but not recovered by kicking team.

Nice push off Davante.

[red]

I believe it's a wide ball that the defense can advance

Can the kicking team recover it, and get the ball?

[ThunderDan]

I just mentioned how the d was stepping up

You're a drunk not a hater. Lol.

[pittstang5]

Why did he cut inside? outside CB fell down

[woodbuck27]

It's 26-10 Atlanta and the Falcons are looking like a winner right now.

9:19 remains in the game.

[red]

No not a live ball if it goes past the line of scrimmage.

Thank you

[pittstang5]

dangerous

[pbmax]

Better throw Nelson is loose/

[red]

You're a drunk not a hater. Lol.

Well, yeah

[SMBASS]

Let's go O. Punch this one in for 7 and make NE start playing a little more desperate.

[pittstang5]

Fuck! are you kidding me!

[Harlan Huckleby]

bad play by rodgers, let it go

[red]

Throw the ball away

No excuse there

[pbmax]

What is Linsley blocking?

[pittstang5]

another stall

[Teamcheez1]

The offense needs to play better. We could put this team away if we quit making mistakes.

[Harlan Huckleby]

We're not seeing a Hall of Fame game from Rodgers today. His throws are a little off. A few beauties, tho

[SMBASS]

O has to start picking it up again. Can't expect the D to continue holding them the entire half. Would love to see a turnover deep in NE territory.

[red]

Now we dont go deep

3rd and 1 we go deep, 2nd and 3 we go deep. Hell 4th and 2, we go deep

3rd and 21, we throw short

That fat mike is one clever fox

[Packgator]

Score is a little scary considering how the Packers are dominating the stats.

[Rutnstrut]

What is Linsley blocking?

I wonder if he didn't get his bell seriously rung earlier in the game. That is like the 3rd time he has been blocking imaginary opponents.

[woodbuck27]

Green Bay punts for the third time today.

A 38 yard punt and NE takes over at their own 22 yard line.

Hold em Packers.

[pbmax]

Now that was a tackle.

[Bossman641]

Now we dont go deep

3rd and 1 we go deep, 2nd and 3 we go deep. Hell 4th and 2, we go deep

3rd and 21, we throw short

That fat mike is one clever fox

You realize there are multiple routes right? And MM doesn't tell Rodgers where to throw it?

I think Rodgers was hoping for 10 yards to make it easier to pin NE deep

[Packgator]

another stall

Another? That was first punt of the game.

[pbmax]

I wonder if he didn't get his bell seriously rung earlier in the game. That is like the 3rd time he has been blocking imaginary opponents.

There was a backer showing possible blitz but he never came. He need to help Eddie immediately. Closest guy.

[ThunderDan]

Green Bay punts for the third time today.

A 38 yard punt and NE takes over at their own 22 yard line.

Hold em Packers.

That was the first punt.

[pittstang5]

give me a fucking break

[Bossman641]

Bullshit late flag

[pbmax]

WHAT>?

[Rastak]

Bullshit late flag


Agreed.

[Bossman641]

Garbage

[ThunderDan]

Horrible call. Williams had position.

[Harlan Huckleby]

tough playing d with these rules

[Guiness]

Wow was that flag late. And that was the definition of ticky-tacky.

[pittstang5]

fuck, now they score on this drive.

[pbmax]

Burnett got burned.

[Packgator]

What is Williams supposed to do? Terrible call.

[red]

Ummm

Wtf

Thats no fucking flag

Thzt black fuck changed his mind after the wr bitched

Fucking horse shit

[woodbuck27]

I'm impressed with the Packers attacking style today on 'D'.

Their playing Brady very well.

Opps just as I'm posting that the defense gets a penalty.

On the next play Brady 19 yards to GRONK to mid field.

[pbmax]

Upstate rival Marquette?

[SMBASS]

Complete bullshit call on the penalty. Tramon was just standing his ground and the receiver ran right into him.

Really hate when refs let the players talk them into throwing late flags after the play. Either you saw something or you didn't. That's exactly the kind of shit that will eventually lead me to not caring about the NFL someday.

[red]

Thats the type of horse shit call that changes a game, and gets a ref paid

[woodbuck27]

Belichick gives RB Jonas Gray a sniff.

(:24 remaining in the 3rd) J.Gray right guard to GB 41 for 4 yards (L.Guion)

[pbmax]

They had him behind the LOS

[Packgator]

Falcons up 26-10. Getting late in 4th.

[pittstang5]

Fuck me. CMON D!!!!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Blount turning into all time great

[red]

FUCKING WRAP UP

god damnit

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Here comes the tackling again.

[pbmax]

Oh Josh Boyd. Coulda been a hero

Peppers with near INT

[pittstang5]

if we can't tackle....

Oh fuck it, we just can't tackle. FUCK!!

[red]

Fuck burnett

Same worthless asshole in the replay from years ago not being able to takle back then

[pbmax]

House you have to turn around.

[Harlan Huckleby]

House lookin silly

[KalamazooPackerFan]

All the D's weaknesses in one series!

[pittstang5]

Fuckin House, turn your head around

[ThunderDan]

That penalty fucking kills.

[Packgator]

Tough/hard run.

[red]

Thats it

D gave us 2 really good series this half, and now its over

Time for the usual shit from them

[Teamcheez1]

Zero points by our offense in the second half. That is the issue.

[SMBASS]

Nice coverage House. Didn't even look for the ball or he could have easily made a play on it.

O has to put some points on the board this drive.

[Striker]

We need 7 here.

[ThunderDan]

Thats it

D gave us 2 really good series this half, and now its over

Time for the usual shit from them

They gave is a third good series and the refs took it away.

[woodbuck27]

Some Power Running there by NE RB LeGarrett Blunt.

What a pickup.

Shit there it is.

Brady to WR Brandon Lafell for six.

Green Bay 23 - New England 21.

This team doesn't lay down. You have to be near perfect to beat them.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Heres hoping this wakes up the offense, score is getting to close for my liking.

[woodbuck27]

Packerrats ...DRINK !

[smuggler]

One little officiating mistake and the Packers can't recover.... It really does take a lucky play for GB's defense to be effective.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Zero points by our offense in the second half. That is the issue.

Agreed. I figured NE for 30+

[woodbuck27]

Lets see what we've got.

We have to simply ....respond.

[Rastak]

Packerrats ...DRINK !


That an order?

[Bossman641]

One little officiating mistake and the Packers can't recover.... It really does take a lucky play for GB's defense to be effective.

Shouldn't this read "It really does take a shitty call for the NE offense to score a TD?"

[woodbuck27]

That penalty fucking kills.

Yup.

[ThunderDan]

One little officiating mistake and the Packers can't recover.... It really does take a lucky play for GB's defense to be effective.

NE has Avery good offense. One extra help from the refs and it is even harder to contain.

[pittstang5]

We have to get points NOW!

[woodbuck27]

That an order?

Nice game for you fellas today.

Last week too.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Rodgers stays off

[pittstang5]

and the hits keep coming. dropped pass

[woodbuck27]

Arizona will lose.

29-10 Falcons with under 3 minutes remaining in the game.

Thanks Atlanta.

[pittstang5]

nice play

[ThunderDan]

There we go. Keep it up O.

[pittstang5]

There's a HOLE!!

[ThunderDan]

Nice run up the middle.

[red]

Here we go

Where was this play calling 2 series ago?

[pittstang5]

positive yardage, positive yardage

[ThunderDan]

Gain of 5 on first works just fine.

[woodbuck27]

6 catch's for Adams for 121 yards ...I believe.

Have faith Packerrats this is our game.
