Official Packers Raiders Game Day Thread

[Harlan Huckleby]

Very subtle push off.....

Well, he thought about pushing off, that's bad enough

[pbmax]

This game must be in Candlestick.

[ThunderDan]

Adams back in the game.

[pittstang5]

COBB!

[pbmax]

Cobb came to play.

[ThunderDan]

O showing a lot of effort in the 2nd half.

[pittstang5]

Adams back in the game.

He was out?

WTF. Lacy Pissed off MM again?

[pbmax]

Adams can you at least LOOK like you are trying to beat coverage?

[red]

holy cow

YAC

we're starting to see glimmers of our old offense

..........................


yes you do tiki, you hear r=the fucking KUUUUHNN chant every week, no matter where they are. jackass

[ThunderDan]

Adams needs to push hard for that ball. He gave up.

[pittstang5]

Wow, refs got one right

[pbmax]

Love the fade pass for a PI.

[ThunderDan]

Cobb was tackled.

[denverYooper]

So let's see. Starks hasn't played. Cobb played RB for a bit. Now Kuhn.

W T F?

[red]

O showing a lot of effort in the 2nd half.

too bad they can't show up for a whole game

[pittstang5]

POUND IT WITH LACY!!!!

[Rutnstrut]

Did both RB's piss stubby off?

[denverYooper]

Though I think they had Kuhn out there for pass pro.

[ThunderDan]

Pound it in. Use Lacy.

[Rastak]

Pounded the wrong way....

[pittstang5]

They stacked the line, with no FB. I knew it was a run... CHECK OUT OF IT!!!!

[red]

So let's see. Starks hasn't played. Cobb played RB for a bit. Now Kuhn.

W T F?

mike likes to punish the running backs when they don't perform

of course thats the only unit he does that with

[red]

OFFENSE-FIXED

[pittstang5]

Fuckin MM - You got a gift with the PI. Fucking Pund that shit. Fuck you MM. FUCK YOU!!!!

[MadScientist]

Well that was a shitty goal-line series

[smuggler]

Our offense is 100% timing routes. Anything that disrupts the routes results in a certain failure.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Fuckin MM - You got a gift with the PI. Fucking Pund that shit. Fuck you MM. FUCK YOU!!!!Eddie bounced it wide. Why not just plow into the line and try to move the pile.

[MadScientist]

OFFENSE-FIXED
Fixed just like a cat.

[Rutnstrut]

Fuckin MM - You got a gift with the PI. Fucking Pund that shit. Fuck you MM. FUCK YOU!!!!

Come on now, the man is an offensive genius.

[pbmax]

Fuckin MM - You got a gift with the PI. Fucking Pund that shit. Fuck you MM. FUCK YOU!!!!

They are the worst short yardage team in football. Not sure that is the way to go.

[red]

our running backs have 13 rushes today, kuuuhn has another 3 and our 10 million dollar WR who can't get open has 4 because "we have to get that guy involved"

[Harlan Huckleby]

WTF. Lacy Pissed off MM again?

Lacy & Starks & Crockett? sharing packed doghouse

[Rutnstrut]

Eddie bounced it wide. Why not just plow into the line and try to move the pile.

Because he started thinking, not one of his strong points.

[Bossman641]

Disappointing fg. Lacy needs to just put his head down and run straight ahead. Can't lose yards there.

And has ronde never watched a packers game? You hear the kuuuuuhn chant at every road game

[red]

They are the worst short yardage team in football. Not sure that is the way to go.

so, you're saying stay out of short yardage situations?

[Teamcheez1]

I don't know why they don't throw Crockett into the mix in these last few games.. Lacy is running in cement today.

[pbmax]

so, you're saying stay out of short yardage situations?

I wouldn't advise extra rushing attempts.

[Bossman641]

our running backs have 13 rushes today, kuuuhn has another 3 and our 10 million dollar WR who can't get open has 4 because "we have to get that guy involved"



The rb haven't done shit with their opportunities

[Harlan Huckleby]

Still time to waste that third TO

[red]

Disappointing fg. Lacy needs to just put his head down and run straight ahead. Can't lose yards there.

And has ronde never watched a packers game? You hear the kuuuuuhn chant at every road game

the prblem was that the whole o line looked like they were pass blocking and were pushed back 6 yards by the time eddy got it. there was no "up the middle" to run at

[pbmax]

I am missing Miss Universe coverage. Damn

[red]

The rb haven't done shit with their opportunities

neither has a-rod with his 38 pass attempts

[pbmax]

Need this 3rd down.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Ryan was out wide on a WR I think.

[ThunderDan]

Come on D.

[pbmax]

Man did Clay have a bull rush. Nice job D line. All of you.

[denverYooper]

I wouldn't advise extra rushing attempts.

Yeah. Thought that last drive was mostly to get 4-5 WR on the field ilo the running game.

[red]

I am missing Miss Universe coverage. Damn

www.pornmd.com

[ThunderDan]

Holding and a sack.

[pbmax]

Alright Micah, nice catch and run.

[Harlan Huckleby]

This game is like the Meineke Car Care Bowl. Two mediocre teams in a consolation match

[Maxie the Taxi]

I'm surprised the ref's penalty flags are still yellow.

[red]

another worthless rule i hate

[Joemailman]

Okay offense. Let's finish this thing off.

[pbmax]

This game is like the Meineke Car Care Bowl. Two mediocre teams in a consolation match

Did you see BYU and Utah? Most entertaining blowout for 3 quarters I ever saw. Utah almost came back in the 4th. Got within 7 at 3:00 but never saw the ball again.

But I take your point.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Did you see BYU and Utah? Most entertaining blowout for 3 quarters I ever saw. Utah almost came back in the 4th. Got within 7 at 3:00 but never saw the ball again.

But I take your point.Really stepped in that one, Harlan.

[Harlan Huckleby]

But I take your point.

Actually didn't catch it. But some of those off-broadway bowl games are most entertaining, you never know

[smuggler]

Starting at Oakland 35 is about as good as you'll get in the NFL without a turnover.

[pbmax]

Outside ZBS with Starks.

[red]

yeah, this has not been a great game to watch

and sure as hell doesn't fill my bowels with confidence

[ThunderDan]

That play looks so much better with Starks on that play.

[pbmax]

STARK PLUG!!!

[MadScientist]

Starks trying to get out of the doghouse

[Harlan Huckleby]

Really stepped in that one, Harlan.

I just scrape the shit off my shoes and move forward. It's not how hard you fall, but how high you bounce, sir.

[red]

too bad we gave up on him earlier, he might have been running like that for the last quarter or so

but at least cobb got 6 yards that last drive

[pbmax]

Bach is down. No more singing today.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Starks trying to get out of the doghouse

Get Cobb back out there crashing between the tackles

[red]

oh good

a shitty situation gets shittier

the shit hawks are circling

[Maxie the Taxi]

I just scrape the shit off my shoes and move forward. It's not how hard you fall, but how high you bounce, sir.They call it resiliency my good man.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Who's our backup to the backup to the backup at OT?

[red]

is this and ad for fear and loathing in las vegas 2?

[Harlan Huckleby]

That third TO is burning hole in Mac's pocket. Use it!

[pbmax]

What?!

[red]

That third TO is burning hole in Mac's pocket. Use it!

no shit, you know he's on the headset "CAN I USE IT YET, CAN I CHALLENGE THAT" and everyone is screaming back, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

[ThunderDan]

Looked like OPI to me.

[red]

for fuck sakes

[Harlan Huckleby]

uh, yes, a wee bit of push off there

[ThunderDan]

Run it.

[red]

Looked like OPI to me.

yup, can't extend your arms

[pbmax]

And a drop.

[Rastak]

uh, yes, a wee bit of push off there


He was just using his size it seems.....

[smuggler]

Referees failing hard. FAIL.

[pbmax]

Run it.

I think that might have been a good call.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Jones didn't have to push off with his hands. He could have accomplished the same thing with his body and it would have been legal.

[Joemailman]

3 man pass rush coming up?

[red]

whats that fat fucking arguing about?

it was a textbook OPI

god damnit, it just shows how fucking dumb he really is

[ThunderDan]

I think that might have been a good call.

Run the 40 seconds and get the points to be up 2 scores.

[King Friday]

3 man pass rush coming up?

Why tire the guys out...2 man rush.

[Joemailman]

That was OPI. The earlier one I thought was mostly the defender slopping on the turf.

[smuggler]

Why come in from the backside with the weaker angle and overrule the official 3 yards away that thought it was clean? I don't agree with that OPI call. Not blatant enough to call.

[denverYooper]

M3's gestures are great.

[Teamcheez1]

Run Kuhn on a screen. Stupid.

[red]

bahk taking a ride to the locker room, always a good sign

but i feel like he gets hurt almost every game, so it might not be that bad

[Harlan Huckleby]

Good D by Casey H

[ThunderDan]

Good coverage across the middle by Hayward.

[Maxie the Taxi]

M3's gestures are great.Looks like Robby the Robot. "Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!

[pbmax]

Matthews just drove a 300 pounder back like 2" of snow.

[red]

finally, a second sack

and to think, some teams get 2 of those every game without much of a problem

[Rastak]

bahk taking a ride to the locker room, always a good sign

but i feel like he gets hurt almost every game, so it might not be that bad


I thought Eric Decker would have to have his leg amputated last night after watching him go down and he comes back. Adrian Peterson had his ankle go the wrong way by 90 degrees and return to the game.....it's crazy how some of these dudes avoid bad bad injuries.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Looks like Robby the Robot. "Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!

Who is that, grandfather?

[pbmax]

Quinten Rollins Band with good play.

[Joemailman]

Dagger!

[red]

dagger

but not something to be proud of for sure

[pittstang5]

CHRIST!!!

[red]

I thought Eric Decker would have to have his leg amputated last night after watching him go down and he comes back. Adrian Peterson had his ankle go the wrong way by 90 degrees and return to the game.....it's crazy how some of these dudes avoid bad bad injuries.

and how others get hurt by something that doesn't even look bad

[pbmax]

Lacy not going to get this. I would prefer Starks even with risk of fumble.

[Joemailman]

finally, a second sack

and to think, some teams get 2 of those every game without much of a problem

Doesn't Peppers have 2 himself?

[Maxie the Taxi]

Who is that, grandfather?Somebody my grandpa told me about.

[ThunderDan]

Oakland, you need to call your TOs.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Brett Favre pass

[Rastak]

Who is that, grandfather?


You can't be serious......actually you could be Dr. Smith.....

[pittstang5]

WTF!!!

[red]

WHY THE FUCK ARE WE THROWING THE BALL???????????????/

how fucking dumb can you possibly get

[pbmax]

Bad throw. Terrible effort by Janis.

[Joemailman]

Undagger.

[yetisnowman]

Wow aaron that is inexcusable

[ThunderDan]

Well that was completely stupid there ARod.

[pbmax]

Where the hell was Janis jumping to?

[red]

Brett Favre pass

you mean awesome in ever aspect of the throw?

how dare to bad mouth brett, all his passes were smart and spot on

[Maxie the Taxi]

Arod blaming Janis on that one. Janis maybe was supposed to stop at the end line. Another dagger in Janis' heart.

[TravisWilliams23]

That's just fuckin' unbelievable! The play call AND the throw.

[red]

Oakland, you need to call your TOs.

no need, we'll just give them back the ball without running any of the clock down

[King Friday]

Stubby deserves to be asked by every reporter in the room at least 3 times why the ball was being thrown there after this one.

Ridiculously dumb. My 5 year old knows better.

[yetisnowman]

Bad throw. Terrible effort by Janis.

Please don't put any of that on Janis my god he wasn't open and double covered. That's 100% on Rodgers

[red]

That's just fuckin' unbelievable! The play call AND the throw.

yup, it takes two idiots to make that play, or three if you add janis

[Harlan Huckleby]

Bad throw. Terrible effort by Janis.

Janis is pretty far back, he can't climb over backs of two defenders.

Back off Jeff

[Teamcheez1]

That was just stupid.

[Iron Mike]

Looked like OPI to me.

If that's a legit OPI call on James Jones, then Michael Irvin should have every single one of his NFL catches reduced to zero....

[Rutnstrut]

So Rodgers won't take chances when they really need him to. Yet he makes that stupid throw???

[Rastak]

You still have them by the nuts.....

[pbmax]

Best punt ever.

[Rastak]

If that's a legit OPI call on James Jones, then Michael Irvin should have every single one of his NFL catches reduced to zero....


Yes, he should have.

[red]

wow, that close, but ball at the 1 inch spot

at the one???????????????????? not like wayyyy closer?

[pbmax]

Please don't put any of that on Janis my god he wasn't open and double covered. That's 100% on Rodgers

99%. Receiver has to fight for the ball. You don't get to give up because someone else screws up.

[ThunderDan]

Safety.

[Teamcheez1]

Arod blaming Janis on that one. Janis maybe was supposed to stop at the end line. Another dagger in Janis' heart.

I'm sorry. That was on Rodgers.

[red]

If that's a legit OPI call on James Jones, then Michael Irvin should have every single one of his NFL catches reduced to zero....

he did all that high on coke, so you can't fault him for that

[ThunderDan]

This game is running way long.

[denverYooper]

Only thing I can think is that Rodgers was trying to give Janis a chance.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Packers are giving Oakland a little chance for fun.

[red]

So Rodgers won't take chances when they really need him to. Yet he makes that stupid throw???

yup, pretty much

its called, putting all your chips in when you have pocket 3's

[pbmax]

Bad zone D.

[pittstang5]

WTF was that. you breath on him and he drops the catch

[red]

This game is running way long.

ya think

soccer is done in an hour and 45 minutes, period. well maybe up to 5 minutes longer

it doesn't take half a fucking day to play. of course, if it was any quicker, the nfl and networks wouldn't make as much money

[Harlan Huckleby]

My mexican food just arrived - things are looking up

[Rastak]

ya think

soccer is done in an hour and 45 minutes, period. well maybe up to 5 minutes longer

it doesn't take half a fucking day to play. of course, if it was any quicker, the nfl and networks wouldn't make as much money


When you watch an entire game using NFL Rewind condensed game it's usually around 45-60 minutes......I'm serious.

[pbmax]

Good Defense.

[pittstang5]

yep, that's what'd I'd be doing, throw deep and hoping for PI

[Teamcheez1]

Rollins misses as many plays as he makes. Expected as a rookie, but he could be good.

[smuggler]

Good play by Burnett

[Harlan Huckleby]

yep, that's what'd I'd be doing, throw deep and hoping for PI

not a bad idea

[pbmax]

Well, OK. Now just run the ball. Dagger.

[pittstang5]

Good Grief, just tackle

[red]

When you watch an entire game using NFL Rewind condensed game it's usually around 45-60 minutes......I'm serious.

they could cut that down to about 15 minutes if they wanted to

isn't that what the one study a few years ago found? theres like 10 or 15 minutes of action per game?

[Joemailman]

Okay, now I mean it. Dagger!

[Maxie the Taxi]

OK, Stubby, throw it three times and let's go home.

[ThunderDan]

D played well in the second half. Same with the O.

[TravisWilliams23]

Duh, it'll be 4th down

[ThunderDan]

First half was hard to watch.

[pittstang5]

another stupid TO

[red]

LOL

did we just take a TO from the victory formation?

yup, mike finally got to use that last TO

[Rastak]

they could cut that down to about 15 minutes if they wanted to

isn't that what the one study a few years ago found? theres like 10 or 15 minutes of action per game?


Yea, it's crazy....all that dead time does work out though for drinking beer and getting fired up between actual action I guess.

[ThunderDan]

The Packers are coming off two straight wins against less than stellar competition. But as I like to say, "A win is a win and you can't control who the NFL scheduled you to play next."

If this was in GB or a short trip in the Midwest I would predict a 2+ TD victory for the Pack. Because we have to travel to Oakland I think it will be more of a 10 point game.

The Packer D will continue with its solid play and the O will benefit from another week of MM running the show. Packers win 31-21.

Predicted 31-21 not bad.

[TravisWilliams23]

Bout fuckin' time he used that last to.

[Joemailman]

D played well in the second half. Same with the O.

D seemed to get the run defense fixed.

[Bossman641]

Don't throw it deep

[pbmax]

I wish they ran this in every 2 minute offense with lead. Starks could burrow a first with 9 blockers.

[red]

i don't get it, why would you run there and NOT try for the endzone?

[pbmax]

D seemed to get the run defense fixed.

Held a good back in decent check.

[red]

Predicted 31-21 not bad.

way off

[Harlan Huckleby]

Packers will have to be better against Arizona

[Bossman641]

How hard has it been raining? I can't tell with this non-hd stream

[Harlan Huckleby]

way off

+1

[Maxie the Taxi]

How hard has it been raining? I can't tell with this non-hd streamI've got 3D HD and there is two inches of water on my living room floor.

[pbmax]

Tretter hurt.

Janis with penalty

[red]

Yea, it's crazy....all that dead time does work out though for drinking beer and getting fired up between actual action I guess.

they should run ads in the corner of the screen between plays and cut out other the TV timeouts

its not like these asshole announcers have anything decent to say between plays

in reality, we just spent about 3 hours watching guys in tight pants stand around

[ThunderDan]

way off

Now the are going to kick a FG.

[TravisWilliams23]

Tretter was limping after that play>

[pbmax]

How hard has it been raining? I can't tell with this non-hd stream

Quite a bit.

[pittstang5]

Great Job Fuckers. Will this game ever fuckin End!

[red]

gotta make it interesting

[Maxie the Taxi]

Now the are going to kick a FG.Why?

[ThunderDan]

Wow, we can't close this game.

[Rastak]

they should run ads in the corner of the screen between plays and cut out other the TV timeouts

its not like these asshole announcers have anything decent to say between plays

in reality, we just spent about 3 hours watching guys in tight pants stand around


Yea, for sure.....I know they research the teams before they broadcast the game but I have a feeling that the research is reading the local paper a day before.

[Joemailman]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.

[pbmax]

Palmer playing OLB

[pittstang5]

Jesus..

FINISH HIM!!!

[ThunderDan]

Palmer was in.

[Maxie the Taxi]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.There's still 3 seconds left.

[red]

tretter looking very gimpy on the sideline. hope he got hurt playing in garbage time when the game already should have been over

[Rastak]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.


Also a team the Vikings beat 30-14.....had to toss that in!

[pittstang5]

Sloppy end, but Ill take.

[red]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.

i didn't see a whole like to be excited about in this game

i think the honeymoon with M# and his play calling magic is as good as dead

[smuggler]

Palmer playing OLB

Neat. I thought he was off the team.

[red]

Also a team the Vikings beat 30-14.....had to toss that in!

yeah, i don't care who they beat last week, it was another close game to a below average team

and the problems that have been with us all year, are still here

[Bossman641]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.

Wasn't pretty but a win is a win. Certainly will have to put forth a better effort next week against Arizona

[Teamcheez1]

i didn't see a whole like to be excited about in this game

i think the honeymoon with M# and his play calling magic is as good as dead

Edgar Bennett will be calling plays next week.

[Rastak]

Wasn't pretty but a win is a win. Certainly will have to put forth a better effort next week against Arizona


That is always the bottom line....win is a win.

[Joemailman]

Congrats to Thunder Dan on 3 straight winning Game Day Threads.

[Maxie the Taxi]

I never make predictions, but...I don't know why I should expect anything but more of the same from the Packers O. Low low scoring game. I'm afraid Charles Woodson gets his revenge today. Another away game fail? ...I hate the damn Raiders!!!:evil:Wow. I really hit the nail on the head with that prediction, didn't I?

[Pugger]

It pains me to say this,but I think Janis scored low on the Wonderlic.

I don't think he'll have to worry about paying his MENSA dues.

[Pugger]

Cooper is something we don't see this season in GB, a good, fast WR.

The 4th overall pick better be good.

[Pugger]

I know some on here will denigrate this win. This was a road win against a team that beat Denver last week. I get that this Packer team isn't great and probably won't be in the Super Bowl this year. But this was a good, tough win.

Yes, if you read the message boards or listen to call in shows you'd think we lost by 3 scores yesterday.

[Pugger]

That is always the bottom line....win is a win.

Not with some folks. If we don't play a perfect game and blow teams out we stink. In the end NOBODY is gonna care what the final score was or how you got there as long as you get the W. Winning on the road is damn difficult.

[Patler]

It pains me to say this,but I think Janis scored low on the Wonderlic.

I think you might be wrong. One of the draft reports from 2014 listed a score of 32. Another said "above 30". For NFL draft prospects, that score is in the stratosphere.

[Joemailman]

I think you might be wrong. One of the draft reports from 2014 listed a score of 32. Another said "above 30". For NFL draft prospects, that score is in the stratosphere.

According to McGinn, he scored a 23 and a 32.

[Patler]

According to McGinn, he scored a 23 and a 32.

Even the 23 is much higher than many NFL players. Scores in the "teens" are quite common.

[pbmax]

According to McGinn, he scored a 23 and a 32.

McGinn might be dyslexic. Throws all his reporting of scouting numbers into question.

[pbmax]

Even if Janis is eligible for MENSA, that doesn't make him smart or dependable on the field. Other people depending on you to be where you are supposed to be WHEN you are supposed to be there does not require a high level of intelligence.

It takes a fair amount of practice, technique and by the numbers adherence to the plan to make it work. You do need to recognize what the Defense is doing to you, and that mainly requires experience. Once you have Nelson or Cobb levels of trust, then you can help the QB improvise and make suggestions.

[Joemailman]

Even the 23 is much higher than many NFL players. Scores in the "teens" are quite common.

Average NFL score is 20. Average WR score is 17.

Agreed, there have been a lot of smart people who failed in the NFL. I only countered because someone specifically referred to his Wonderlic score. He isn't a dummy, but still might not be an NFL WR. However, it is looking like he can have a career as a ST specialist, if nothing else; at least for a while.

Years ago I had an article that was a collaboration between some scholarly types and coaches. One of the interesting discussions was on QBs and intelligence. All agreed they needed to be smart to learn and carryout the plan; but they also agreed that many of the very smartest ones failed because they saw too many options/alternatives in situations, and would not accept the "if this, then that" approach that works best in a team game.

[gbgary]

typical 2015 Packers game...offense only shows up for half the game, d is generally good with the momentary hiccup, too many penalties. Rodgers attitude after the game is alarming. he and mm need to get their heads right with each other. jones was good, janis good on kick-offs (keep him away from the o), o-line struggled in running situations, lacy danced around too much.
