Official Packers vs. Rams Game Day Thread

[Joemailman]

This will be a test. Rams can really get after the quarterback. They sacked Carson Palmer 4 times last week, and have 17 on the season, same as the Packers. They only have given up only 3 TD passes on the season, but only have 3 INT's. Teams haven't tried to run the ball a lot against the Rams, but have had some success when they did. Rams have given up 4.3 YPC, and have given up a league-worst 6 runs of 20+ yards. DC Gregg Williams love to blitz, but will he try it against Rodgers?

Offensively, Nick Foles has been very efficient, completing 63.1% of his passes, with 5 TD's and only 1 INT. Foles has spread the ball around, with no receiver having more than 14 receptions. Last week Todd Gurley ran for 146 yards against Arizona. He's an awesome talent.

Jeff Fisher always has his teams really ready to play in an underdog role. But his teams tend to be inconsistent. A team that has beaten Seattle and Arizona should be better than 2-2.

Rams will test the Packers, but Packers will pull away late.

Packers 30
Rams 20

I'll be happy to see ARod come out healthy.

That ST Looey fron 7 is flat out scary.

[Joemailman]

Most of the country seeing the game. Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts on the call. http://506sports.com/nfl.php?yr=2015&wk=5

https://nflcompackers.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/151011-tvmap-600.jpg

[Bretsky]

Need to contain Gurley and then put some pressure on Foles

[smuggler]

Ogletree being out will be great for the offense. If they can't get pressure quickly, the underneath should be more viable.

[gbgary]

we get the C-team broadcast crew today. fouts and a guy.

[pbmax]

Aaron Donald walked Sitton backwards on Rodgers run.

[pbmax]

Well, that's what you get with a Gregg Williams defense. Nothing in the middle after a blitz and a pick play route.

[gbgary]

nice!

[red]

we get the C-team broadcast crewt today. fouts and a guy.

2 of the best in the business

yeah, we got a good one in monty

[gbgary]

cin up on sea already.

[mraynrand]

Well, that's what you get with a Gregg Williams defense. Nothing in the middle after a blitz and a pick play route.

Really good analysis/understanding of the game. PB, where is your mensch?

[pbmax]

Perry and Daniels that is how you squeeze a gap.

[TravisWilliams23]

I wish the announcers would stop bringing up Rodgers no interceptions streak during the game.
Jinx bastards!

[Guiness]

Anyone see what happened on that kick-off?

Raii continues to a man passessed...or at least in a contract year!

[pbmax]

Really good analysis/understanding of the game. PB, where is your mensch?

?

[gbgary]

no penalty but clay may get a fine for that.

[pbmax]

Shields shouldn't have jumped the throw.

Matthews is gonna get fined for that shot to Foles. Hit him with the top of the helmet.

[Packgator]

cin up on sea already.

No longer

[red]

one keystone cop moment and the mystique of our defense is gone

let the flood gates open

[pbmax]

How much guaranteed money is Perry earning per sack? $150,000?

[gbgary]

great coverage by Randal on that deflected pass play.

[pbmax]

one keystone cop moment and the mystique of our defense is gone

let the flood gates open

They recovered.

[red]

They recovered.

yeah they did

[gbgary]

yeah they did

and it was hardly a keystone cop moment.

[TravisWilliams23]

Starks sure likes to swing that ball loose.

[SMBASS]

Starks sure likes to swing that ball loose.

Yeah, ball security definitely isn't his strong point. Makes me nervous as heck to watch him carry the ball that way.

[pbmax]

Starks has radar for the first down yard line.

Monty just threw a DB with one arm. :lol:

[gbgary]

lol...Montgomery put that defender on his butt.

[pbmax]

Cut back was there Eddie!

Does anyone else think Gregg Williams is dying his hair and growing that goatee to make people forget New Orleans?

[Joemailman]

I wish the announcers would stop bringing up Rodgers no interceptions streak during the game.
Jinx bastards!

You were saying?

[red]

and there it is

now we don't have to hear about it anymore all the time

[pbmax]

Well, good, now we can stop talking about the streak.

[gbgary]

lol...that wasn't on Rodgers.

[red]

Cut back was there Eddie!

Does anyone else think Gregg Williams is dying his hair and growing that goatee to make people forget New Orleans?

yup, but theres now a new scandal out involving him

something about spies at other teams practices

[gbgary]

Cut back was there Eddie!

Does anyone else think Gregg Williams is dying his hair and growing that goatee to make people forget New Orleans?

so he "left meat on the bone"?

[pbmax]

yup, but theres now a new scandal out involving him

something about spies at other teams practices

http://bills.buffalonews.com/2015/10/10/fifteen-years-later-the-miracle-lingers-on-for-bills/

[Harlan Huckleby]

Hayward was lost - lucky

[Harlan Huckleby]

revenge!

[pbmax]

so he "left meat on the bone"?

Yep. :)

That might also be how he has lost some weight.

[gbgary]

GREAT pressure on that int.

[Joemailman]

Pressure brings interceptions.

[pbmax]

Pressure brings interceptions.

And this offense is all about deep drops. Could be a long day for Foles.

[Guiness]

no penalty but clay may get a fine for that.

Was thinking the same thing, led with his helmet and got him right in the chest.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Wilde said that James Jones was walking with slight limp this week (hamstring), I imagine he is a decoy this game.

[pbmax]

Wasn't a brick wall Ian, it was a trip.

If Lacy doesn't jump, he cruises through that tackle.

[red]

if eddy would have stayed on the ground that would probably had been a first

[SMBASS]

D came to play so far. Offense needs to pick it up.

[pbmax]

Jared Cook should switch to defense after that tackle on Hyde on Pack INT.

[red]

theres the other rookie CB

[pbmax]

Pick 6!!!! The Rookie! Rollins!

Datone Jones with pressure splitting a double team.

[red]

foles threw that one to 3 packers

good choice

[Guiness]

Rook with the pick 6.

So do we get to see Tolzien finally?

[red]

well, theres 14-0

time to let them start getting back into the game

[gbgary]

Wasn't a brick wall Ian, it was a trip.

If Lacy doesn't jump, he cruises through that tackle.

not impressed with the Ian guy. said several stupid things already.

nice pick-6 there! Go Pack!

[Joemailman]

if eddy would have stayed on the ground that would probably had been a first

That's what I thought. 240 lb. RB's shouldn't try to fly.

[red]

That's what I thought. 240 lb. RB's shouldn't try to fly.

screw you joe, i'm not talking to you today

[pbmax]

not impressed with the Ian guy. said several stupid things already.

nice pick-6 there! Go Pack!

Its too bad. Normally he and Fouts are good.

[SMBASS]

Keep pounding the piss out of Foles and he'll be winging it all over the place. Man it's fun to watch our D bring heat on the Q.B.! Nice pick 6 Rook! Welcome to the bigs!

[Harlan Huckleby]

time to let them start getting back into the game

I expect the D will keep heat on.

But I don't expect a lot from the offense, and not because they take foot off gas pedal. Cobb and Jones are not 100%. It's a grind it out day against pretty good D.

[pbmax]

If Gurley got by Guion, there was no second level, everyone was blitzing. Lotta open space before delay of game call.

[gbgary]

Keep pounding the piss out of Foles and he'll be winging it all over the place. Man it's fun to watch our D bring heat on the Q.B.! Nice pick 6 Rook! Welcome to the bigs!

this!

[Iron Mike]

Sucks to see that ex-Bear Fisher shit the bed at Lambeau, doesn't it???

[pbmax]

Great timing by Sam.

[pbmax]

screw you joe, i'm not talking to you today

Did Joe not remind you to do an Unofficial Thread?

[Harlan Huckleby]

Shields catching that int would have pushed them back 10 yards

[gbgary]

Keep pounding the piss out of Foles and he'll be winging it all over the place. Man it's fun to watch our D bring heat on the Q.B.! Nice pick 6 Rook! Welcome to the bigs!

this!

[red]

fucking stupid play from janis

[gbgary]

he shouldn't have touched it.

[pbmax]

I think the ball is down where first touched, but not certain.

[SMBASS]

O seems a little bit out of sync today. Kind of reminds me of last week. I know the Rams have a good D but something just seems a little off. I think they're still trying to find their identity a little bit sans Jordy.

[Harlan Huckleby]

ball never crossed line, but janis shat bed

[pbmax]

Yeah. The ball was not in the endzone, but Janis was.

[red]

yup, 2 bonehead plays by janis

first knocked the ball into the endzone, then touched the ball while in the endzone

[red]

janis is quickly becoming my new bush

[pbmax]

Another play where penetration (Matthews earlier) this time by Guion takes a lineman OUT of the play.

[Joemailman]

Gurley is going to be awesome.

[pbmax]

Elliot with a Mathews.

[swede]

janis is quickly becoming my new bush

Shades of Billy Schroeder.

[pbmax]

Bad move by Dix. Jumping with no idea where ball was.

[pbmax]

Penalties sink defensive effort again.

[Harlan Huckleby]

They lose Nelson and Adams. According to Wilde, Cobb reaggravated shoulder and Jones is very hobbled this week. They are playing with a very limited passing game. Bye week is needed.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Bad move by Dix. Jumping with no idea where ball was.

True, but probably a TD pass without the grab and karate chop. He was beat.

[gbgary]

8-in-the-box and man coverage time for our d.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Arod had 6 seconds - nobody open

[pbmax]

True, but probably a TD pass without the grab and karate chop. He was beat.

It went off Cook's other hand. The jersey hold might have been more effective.

[Joemailman]

Anybody else just lose TV reception/

[pbmax]

Lang concussion. Walker in.

[pbmax]

Anybody else just lose TV reception/

Yeah. Went from HD to StdDef.

[Harlan Huckleby]

All the packers have are short passes - defense sitting on it.

[Harlan Huckleby]

bad call - that was clearly a trap, ball was moving

[red]

wtf

[Harlan Huckleby]

dumb challenge, mike

[red]

shit spot

[gbgary]

bad challenge

[pbmax]

I did not see the Long replay, how did he get hurt?

[red]

fat mike just loves throwing away timeouts

[SMBASS]

Offense and Rodgers are shitting the bed this first half. That int was clearly trapped. Hell, half of the ball was on the ground. I swear the NFL makes calls on these replays that help keep the game, "interesting".

[red]

I did not see the Long replay, how did he get hurt?

him and bahk locked knees on the last INT, after the play

[red]

Offense and Rodgers are shitting the bed this first half. That int was clearly trapped. Hell, half of the ball was on the ground. I swear the NFL makes calls on these replays that help keep the game, "interesting".

sure seems like it a lot of the time

with all the fifa shit going on, its not hard to imagine the NFL being involved in the same type of shit

[gbgary]

tough game today.

[red]

a-rod and the offense can't do shit today and it looks to me like the defense has already blown their load

doesn't look good to me

[SMBASS]

sure seems like it a lot of the time

with all the fifa shit going on, its not hard to imagine the NFL being involved in the same type of shit

Yeah Red...I swear one of these days I'm going to lose all interest in the NFL and the putrid and blatantly crooked officiating is going to be one of the main reasons.

[smuggler]

Why even have challenges if you can't get the calls right even with the help of a review?

[gbgary]

come on D!

[pbmax]

Nice play Sam.

[red]

Why even have challenges if you can't get the calls right even with the help of a review?

yeah, its making me question my whole stance on replay

they still seem to fuck it up just as much as they fix a fuck up, so whats the point?

[gbgary]

now some points before half.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Montgomery is the weapon today

[pbmax]

How do you get delay of game after a kickoff?

[red]

SNAP THE FUCKING BALL

[red]

how bout instead of trying to snap the ball with 1 left on the clock, we say, snap the ball with 5 left on the clock?

[pbmax]

I would love RichRod if he would spin out of that single guy tackle attempt once in a while.

[pbmax]

Better that Starks dropped it.

[red]

just throw the ball away

how does a 2 yard run and the clock still running help us in any way?

[SMBASS]

Let's go offense! Need some points on the board just before the half to take some momentum into the locker room.

[red]

thats not close to being a forward pass when the guy is 2 yards behind you and you hand the ball to him

[pbmax]

Started off great, got progressively terrible.

They have to figure out how to handle that safety who is hanging out in the box stopping a lot of short stuff. 26 I think.

[red]

is Jeff fisher drunk?

[Joemailman]

well, theres 14-0

time to let them start getting back into the game

Stop jinxing my Game Day thread, dammit. Start your own thread.

[Harlan Huckleby]

awful game. Packer O looks like the Bears. Worse - the Bears at least can throw passes past 8 yards.
Arod has time to throw, no receivers.

[pbmax]

awful game. Packer O looks like the Bears. Worse - the Bears at least can throw passes past 8 yards.
Arod has time to throw, no receivers.

Time for Janis. :D

[SMBASS]

I think not having Jordy as a deep threat is totally screwing up this offense. Nobody else seems to get open and opposing D's can crowd the line and play more people in the box without the threat of him going deep.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Time for Janis. :D

Either Janis or Abbrederis have got to be better than Jones playing with a hammy.

[smuggler]

Gotta agree. Throw Janis in there and cross your fingers.

[Fosco33]

Defense started out quick and knocking foles all over the place. Rams adjusted - now it's time for Dom to do the same.

Offense has looked off for last 6 quarters or so. Just too many injuries??

[gbgary]

lot of low scoring tough games today.

[Joemailman]

Janis showed good speed in getting downfield to knock that punt into the end zone. Give him a shot. What could go wrong?

[Harlan Huckleby]

lot of low scoring tough games today.

the moon is in the seventh house and jupiter aligns with mars

[Harlan Huckleby]

Janis showed good speed in getting downfield to knock that punt into the end zone. Give him a shot. What could go wrong?

Right, don't take any chances, stay the course with a fruitless formula

[swede]

the moon is in the seventh house and jupiter aligns with mars

I hadn't realized there was a correlation between the dawning of the age of Aquarius and large men crushing each other. Good catch.

[gbgary]

cin giving their game away now.

[red]

i still say dick rod is the most boring TE of all time

[red]

a-rod had 10 seconds to throw the ball, but 9.5 of those seconds are him running around dodging sacks

o-line is shit

[SMBASS]

C'mon Pack! Need some points off of this drive to take back the momentum.

[red]

all the man does is score TD's

[gbgary]

td

[red]

THATS A TD

if the officials can get the review right

[red]

YES THEY DO NEED TO CHALLENGE DAN

thats 6 more points for my ass

[Harlan Huckleby]

Can you imagine if that ball had rolled out of bounds in endzone - touch back.

But it is TD.

[red]

Can you imagine if that ball had rolled out of bounds in endzone - touch back.

But it is TD.

ball was in the endzone before he lost it

its not like calvin where he fumbled it at the 1 inch line

but YES it would have sucked

TD JONES!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

Tad, incredible body control.

[Joemailman]

Right, don't take any chances, stay the course with a fruitless formula

Fruitful formula.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Jones' hamstring pull looked ok there. Must have been fakin the limp.

[ThunderDan]

Awesome, first post and autocorrect fucking it all up

[Packgator]

I think not having Jordy as a deep threat is totally screwing up this offense. Nobody else seems to get open and opposing D's can crowd the line and play more people in the box without the threat of him going deep.

I've been fearing that since the minute Jordy got hurt.

[MadScientist]

And I thought the Packers didn't need to pick up Jones. I was way wrong.

[red]

jamall charles done for the year

[red]

LOL

you knew it was only a matter of time with perry

unreal

[ThunderDan]

Grounding for sure.

[red]

Grounding for sure.

yeah they said #89 was in the area

i guess the area is 20 yards now

[gbgary]

nice series for the D.

[ThunderDan]

Ok, O lets get a TD and wrap it up.

[swede]

yeah they said #89 was in the area

i guess the area is 20 yards now

These refs are mediocre. That is all.

[SMBASS]

Man, I've said it a million times already but picking up James Jones the way we did off of the scrap heap and the lights out way he's playing just astounds me. Dude continues to be money whenever we need a big play!

[ThunderDan]

That is effectively our running game today.

[swede]

Dickrod's "run after the catch" has improved "immeasurably" says Ian.

ian is mediocre. That is all.

[red]

dick rod goes for the block and bounces right off the guy :roll:

[red]

who the hell is james shields?

and why did he just drop that ball?

[gbgary]

james shields

[ThunderDan]

Randall now making great special teams tackles. Ankle biter.

[swede]

James Shields with a bad play I guess. Dang you James Shields.

[red]

no, that was not jans on the hit

randall is #23, janis is #83

randall is kinda short, janis is kinda tall

randall is kinda black, janis is kinda white

[red]

James Shields with a bad play I guess. Dang you James Shields.

get him off the field

whoever the hell he is

[Joemailman]

who the hell is james shields?

and why did he just drop that ball?

He's confused as to whether he's supposed to catch the ball or knock it down.

[red]

wow, they got a great spot

[red]

fucking special teams

[ThunderDan]

Fire Stock!

[red]

now raji hurt

[ThunderDan]

Fire Stock!

Slocum!

[red]

i am confident that the medical staff doesn't know what the hell they are doing

and anything under the waist is called a hamstring, and anything above the waist is a shoulder

[red]

Fire Stock!

who the fuck is stock?

wow, what a horrible kick LOL

[ThunderDan]

Way to stand tall defense.

[MadScientist]

That was impressive movement on the missed FG. I didn't think you could get a football to break like that.

[gbgary]

nice.

[ThunderDan]

who the fuck is stock?

wow, what a horrible kick LOL

A couple of ST coaches a go. I meant Zookeeper!

[Joemailman]

who the fuck is stock?

wow, what a horrible kick LOL

Zook rocks!

[red]

so, to sum up

in this game, we have lost

lang- knee?
perry- shoulder
raji- hamstring

and we now have some guy named james shields

[swede]

Sorry...who is #39? Bad time to fall down and let the punter find his second receiver on the checkdown.

[red]

That was impressive movement on the missed FG. I didn't think you could get a football to break like that.

tough to get that kind of spin an a volley ball even

[ThunderDan]

A couple of ST coaches a go. I meant Zookeeper!

Come on autocorrect. Zook!

[swede]

so, to sum up

in this game, we have lost

lang- knee?
perry- shoulder
raji- hamstring

and we now have some guy named james shields

On the bright side, James Shields still has a chance to earn the Fuckdoggle for the week.

[gbgary]

need points.

[red]

blocked by datone

wtf is a-rod doing today?

did he catch cutlerism?

[gbgary]

ugh

[MadScientist]

Two picks and a fumble. WTF does Rodgers think he's Cutler?

[red]

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT

GET SOME REAL FUCKING O-LINEMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bahk is complete shit

[Iron Mike]

Good job blocking, Daktari...

[ThunderDan]

The O needs to pick it up. The D is on the field too much.

[red]

its like we don't want to win games, we do everything we can to let other teams get back into them

[ThunderDan]

Neal blows up that run.

[red]

GRAB THE FUCKING BALL

[red]

117 year old julius peppers

[ThunderDan]

Peppers with the sack and forced fumbled. D couldn't jump on the ball.

[Iron Mike]

117 year old julius peppers

If the Bears still had him, they probably would have traded him back to Carolina by now.

[SMBASS]

Rodgers has had some off games but I think this is the worst he's played in a long time. 3 turnovers....that's the only thing keeping the Rams in this game.

[gbgary]

good work from the D there.

[red]

no good

[ThunderDan]

Little wind? They have to hold the ball on kickoffs.

[red]

good fiel position

now get some fucking points

[gbgary]

someone get open this drive please.

[swede]

Lack of 3rd down conversions have hurt the Rams kicker. Fouts descending into mediocrity. That is all.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Both Tretter and Walker out there?

[ThunderDan]

Is Tretter playing G or T?

[gbgary]

Little wind? They have to hold the ball on kickoffs.

they're terrible.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Tretter was blocking TE

[Iron Mike]

Lack of 3rd down conversions have hurt the Rams kicker. Fouts descending into mediocrity. That is all.

You are certainly bringing it today, Swede!!!

[red]

i'm not gonna call out pocket a pocket anymore

its more like a doughnut with the tackles letting A-rod get completely surrounded every time

[ThunderDan]

Both Tretter and Walker out there?

I think they are in their jumbo package. Linsey-Walker-Tretter on right side.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Maybe Tretter can be deep threat

[ThunderDan]

I think they are in their jumbo package. Linsey-Walker-Tretter on right side.

Linsey Walker Barclay Tretter

[red]

Little wind? They have to hold the ball on kickoffs.

to be fair, the flags at the tops of the goal posts weren't moving at all

[Harlan Huckleby]

Dick, Dick, Dick

[ThunderDan]

Rich Rod catch that ball.

[red]

dick rod batting the ball down like king kong knocking down planes on top of the empire state building

[gbgary]

sometimes Lacy's spin and hesitation are a detriment to him.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Linsey Walker Barclay Tretter

I dink Bulaga still at rt

[red]

thats some great o-line play

[ThunderDan]

24-10 Pack

[red]

dick rod having just a monster game of shittyness

[MadScientist]

First the drop, now the FG killing penalty. RR not having a good stretch.

[Harlan Huckleby]

dumb, DR

[red]

fucking idot

BENCH HIS FUCKING ASS, SEND A FUCKING MESSAGE FOR ONCE

[ThunderDan]

The Packers now have a giant cue card that says punt. Fire Zook!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Look at me, mom, I can punt all the way to endzone!

[ThunderDan]

I dink Bulaga still at rt

Yes, Bulaga not Barclay.

[SMBASS]

For being in the, "upper echelon" in the NFL this team really plays stupid sometimes. I hate everything about the Patriots but it seems to be the one area that they are better than us. They just don't seem to make the continual stupid mistakes whenever I watch them.

[Joemailman]

Ugly game. Just win and move on.

[red]

and here comes the defensive collapse

[ThunderDan]

Comes on D, Starting to tire out with so much time on the field.

[red]

trip in there no?

[gbgary]

come on D.

[ThunderDan]

Hurley just wrenched Dix's face mask.

[gbgary]

thank you.

[Iron Mike]

Fuck off, Rams..

[red]

WOW

what an INT

3 guys had their hands on that one

[MadScientist]

Dix Pix!

[Harlan Huckleby]

God is a Packer fan

[red]

Hurley just wrenched Dix's face mask.

yeah he did

they need to adjust that rule so the runner can't go up top if no one else is allowed to do it

[ThunderDan]

Palmer with great coverage on the cross. He gets the original tip on the ball.

[Joemailman]

and here comes the defensive collapse



WOW

what an INT

3 guys had their hands on that one

Nice recovery. :glug:

[red]

Palmer with great coverage on the cross. He gets the original tip on the ball.
