Official Packers Falcons Game Day Thread

Winner probably doesn't suck

[pbmax]

Minimal, functional, I like it.

Packers win going away, with a late Atlanta TD to make it seem closer, 31-24

Breaking Scoopage: Packers Ty Montgomery (illness) and Randall Cobb OUT today va Falcons @NFLonFOX

[red]

does that mean our top 2 rb's are out again?

[pbmax]

Depends on how you want to count. But both Davis and Jackson are available.

[channtheman]

Yikes. Going to be very tough to win this without those guys. But I'm trusting in Janis

[pbmax]

Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 6m6 minutes ago
So, this means #Packers will run normal offense with @donjackson2003 and @GBRB_30 as the RBs. Geronimo Allison is going to get a shot, too

[channtheman]

Where's Samkon Gado when you need him?

[pbmax]

No Matthews

Kind of amazing when every inactive player is an injured starter/significant player, especially when two other starters are on IR.

I admit it's bad. Although my boys have lost their starting QB, RB, both Tackles for the year (most likley for RB). In addition, every week they are also missing Wrs. They also have their start DT out for several games.

Teams gotta step up, although I admit you guys have been hit hard too.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Zing!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Yikes. Going to be very tough to win this without those guys. But I'm trusting in Janis

I predict that the Packers will get waxed. To say otherwise is to believe that players don't matter.

But now that you mention Janis's name, I have a little bit of hope.

[pittstang5]

Wow. How do we win this one? I guess we don't.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Somehow, I think MM is giving Matthews a day off figuring this game isn't going to go their way, so why not let the guy rest.

We're not going to need just one Fuckdoggle today, but at least 2.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Dwight Freeney is active today. Bad news for Arod.

It's almost easier when the injuries are enough to put them on IR, at least you can get position numbers the way you want them. Today the Packers have on the roster, but inactive, 2 WRs, 2 CBs, a TE, a LB and a RB, all because of injury/illness. Active by default will be 4 OTs and 5 safeties, and 7 DL.

[QBME]

It may not mean much, but Edgar Bennet spent a good 10 minutes talking to Janis, in the middle of the field before the rest of the team came out. It appeared to be a one sided conversation, and not light banter

[Harlan Huckleby]

So what's on the alcohol menu today Red? My usual Summit Pale Ale.

I'm guessing this will be a competitive game.

[ThunderDan]

Go pack go!

Sorry if I am slow on the trigger today. I ran a marathon this morning.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Go pack go!

Sorry if I am slow on the trigger today. I ran a marathon this morning.I'm a little slow today too. I thought about running a marathon this morning.

[Rastak]

I'm a little slow today too. I thought about running a marathon this morning.

I watched a reply of Rosie Ruiz's legendary big win at the Boston marathon this morning.

[ThunderDan]

Can't have Martinez covering Sanu.

[ThunderDan]

Gouin with the tackle. Run defense looks stout.

[Rastak]

How does one get two illegal formation calls?

[pittstang5]

I wouldnt have taken the penalty - I guess it was ok though

[red]

Can't have Martinez covering Sanu.

so martinez is not > hawk

[ThunderDan]

There we go. Martinez on a TE.

[pbmax]

Can't have Martinez covering Sanu.

That was a weird pattern. He was wide open on wide side of field.

[pittstang5]

sheesh!!!

[pbmax]

Who blew that tackle?

Nowhere close to a first until he fell down instead of coming to a stop.

[red]

it was down, but why were they blowing it dead, let the thing play out

if it was a fumble, GB would not have gotten a TD because of the whistle, and you couldn't review the TD

[ThunderDan]

Gunter with the miss.

[pittstang5]

Who blew that tackle?

Gunter

[TravisWilliams23]

1st replay looked like the ball was coning out before he was down. Close.

[pbmax]

That was just pathetically too much of a hero attempt. Just stop and force him to sideline or middle where the help is.

[ThunderDan]

Dang it.

[Harlan Huckleby]

As usual, my focus has been on takeout order. After much deliberation, went with Szechuan pork. Who's winning?

[pittstang5]

ugh...needed a yard and they got 10?

[red]

i would like to take this moment to thank yahoo for bending me over this morning and fucking me out of 20 points

[pbmax]

Bad play by Perry.

[pittstang5]

As usual, my focus has been on takeout order. After much deliberation, went with Szechuan pork. Who's winning?

General Tso

[ThunderDan]

Perry with the tip.

[pbmax]

I think that ball was coming out. No?

[ThunderDan]

Goodsin with a great tackle.

[pbmax]

That is how you do it Gunter. Watch Goodson.

Can't believe I wrote that.

[pittstang5]

holding them to a FG is a win my book

[KYPack]

i would like to take this moment to thank yahoo for bending me over this morning and fucking me out of 20 points

Wa happened, red?

[beveaux1]

Defense holds them to 3. Jones is held to no catches.

[Harlan Huckleby]

That kick would have been good from the 70 yard line. Field goals have become too automatic, need to narrow the posts.

[pittstang5]

I think that ball was coming out. No?

Pretty close. I think if it was ruled a fumbled, it might stay. since it wasn't, they still probably don't overturn it. one of those kinds of plays

[KYPack]

Goodson with the form tackle.

[gbgary]

not a bad start for the d.

[pbmax]

That kick would have been good from the 70 yard line. Field goals have become too automatic, need to narrow the posts.

Tell that to the Raiders or Bengals today.

[red]

Wa happened, red?

my roster was locked before the early game this morning, couldn't get jordan reed into my lineup

[pittstang5]

1st play will tell me how this game is gonna go. Stay tuned

[ThunderDan]

Jordy missed the block on the WR screen.

[pbmax]

Eh, Jordy, try to hit the guy you are blocking, OK?

[pittstang5]

1st play will tell me how this game is gonna go. Stay tuned

Packers will lose by 3

[pbmax]

Bulaga just earned a first down.

[ThunderDan]

Nice run for Jackson.

[pbmax]

OK, Falcons are playing a Bear front and daring them to throw deep. Single safety is way shallow.

[red]

now we're gonna start rotating RB's during the series just like every football team ever?

[pbmax]

Man was that pretty!

[Rastak]

Nice catch and throw.

[Harlan Huckleby]

nice pass

[red]

there we go, nice throw and catch by jordy

[ThunderDan]

Boom, ARod to Jordy on the bomb.

[pittstang5]

woa, woa ,woa....where did that come from?

[pbmax]

And kudos to Janis for running a good and correct route. Held up safety by running a post or in or similar.

[red]

great start

[pbmax]

TD!!! WOOT!

[gbgary]

nice!!

[pittstang5]

What?!?! No Way!!!

[ThunderDan]

TD Jordy Nelson. Mojo coming back?

[gbgary]

not a bad start for the o.

[beveaux1]

Our guys are never that open.

[Cheesehead Craig]

That was a brilliant drive.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Troy is impressed.

[red]

Our guys are never that open.

they are more often then the announcers, M3 and a-rod like to admit

[gbgary]

they're NOT playing press coverage. if this continues...

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Two years ago Jordy would have scored on the long pass but its a way better start than I expected.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Arod threw that TD pass off his back foot.

[pbmax]

they're NOT playing press coverage. if this continues...

Yeah, Rodgers and Nelson and probably Dick Rod will kill a zone.

[beveaux1]

Two years ago Jordy would have scored on the long pass but its a way better start than I expected.

I'll take a 58 yd gain.

[pbmax]

Two years ago Jordy would have scored on the long pass but its a way better start than I expected.

I agree. His top gear isn't back yet.

[red]

Two years ago Jordy would have scored on the long pass but its a way better start than I expected.

yeah, i kinda looked like jordy was missing that top gear

[red]

I agree. His top gear isn't back yet.

at his age, and with that injury, it might not come back

we might be seeing the new jordy at 100%

[red]

hate to break it to you guys, but jordy was not open on that long throw, in fact he was double covered

[pittstang5]

And that is why Julio Jones is so fuckin good! You gotta Wrap up! Come on D!!!

[pbmax]

That was just pathetic. Two guys fell off. He isn't the Hulk.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Spic and Span muffed.

[yetisnowman]

Good lord. Two guys , wrap him up

[Harlan Huckleby]

spic and span fail

[ThunderDan]

Get him down Martinez.

[Rastak]

That was right on the nuts.

[pittstang5]

Good Lord. Perfect Throw!!!

[beveaux1]

That was fast.

[red]

and that was a prettier pass and catch

[pittstang5]

Gotta Pressure Ryan

[ThunderDan]

Ha Ha has to get there.

[Harlan Huckleby]

ahh, their guys are on scholarship too. Not bad defense

[gbgary]

ouch.

[pbmax]

Can't complain about that. Pretty good coverage. Dix doesn't get close enough.

Gonna be a shootout. Need pass rush.

[yetisnowman]

Haha in a spot where he cant help anyone. Great throw tho

[beveaux1]

Can't complain about that. Pretty good coverage. Dix doesn't get close enough.

Gonna be a shootout. Need pass rush.

Absolutely, we need it with 4 rushers.

[Harlan Huckleby]

This is an entertaining game. Can't beat that. Packer O-line is protecting Rodgers.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Can't complain about that. Pretty good coverage. Dix doesn't get close enough.

Gonna be a shootout. Need pass rush.You can say that again. Just pressure isn't enough. You got to hit Ryan.

[ThunderDan]

Wow, I am not taking Humara EVER!

[ThunderDan]

That ne was on Burnett not Ha Ha.

[pbmax]

Good view. Burnett bailed on deep coverage early.

[beveaux1]

My feeling is sell out on the pass. Play nickel and dime exclusively. Martinez and Ryan should play very little.

[Harlan Huckleby]

wide open, no pressure. come on arod

[yetisnowman]

Well we were due for a shitty throw

[pittstang5]

ugh...he gets open and Rogers throws too high.

[ThunderDan]

Good pitch and catch.

[pbmax]

Wow, that was a tight throw to Adams.

[Harlan Huckleby]

If the O-line keeps this up Packers win

[ThunderDan]

Small window throw to Adams.

[yetisnowman]

It's pretty simple, Aaron has to be very good, not pretty good, for us to win this game.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Rodgers hitting smaller windows than past few games.

[pittstang5]

that took too long for 6 yards

[pbmax]

Oh my god a timing route from Janis!

[pittstang5]

Fuck! Atlanta trying to slow them down with a TO. Fuckers

[pbmax]

Man you could go deep fast with that WR lineup.

[Harlan Huckleby]

It's pretty simple, Aaron has to be very good, not pretty good, for us to win this game.

I don't know. Even an average QB can connect when you give him 6 seconds. Janis and Davis are fast, they have to get open eventually.

[pittstang5]

that was shittty...he had nowhere to go!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

chincy call on Bak. Shit decision by arod.

[TravisWilliams23]

Throw it away Arod.

[pbmax]

Great. Now the line has decided to make this harder.

[red]

wouldn't every coach want fast aggressive defenders troy?

[pittstang5]

Now Worse!!! Damn it. Fuckin Timeout from Atlanta screwed rhythm

[red]

did adams just line up in the backfield?

wtf

[pbmax]

Wheel route from your outside receiver. OK

[pittstang5]

HIKE THE BALL!!!!!

[red]

now maybe we can get adams hurt playing RB

[pittstang5]

did adams just line up in the backfield?

wtf

Cobb and Monty out. You think MM is gonna abandon using a WR in the backfield?

[ThunderDan]

Monty is ill not injuries from what I have read.

[pbmax]

STOP SPINNING AND RUNNING BACKWARDS AT THE FIRST DOWN MARKER EVERYONE!

[MadtownPacker]

Cant complain IMO, in the road vs good team and driving. Not a bad start at all.

[red]

Monty is ill not injuries from what I have read.

yes, you are right

[pbmax]

Monty is ill not injuries from what I have read.

Yep

[ThunderDan]

Davis you have to take that straight up not do a spin move at the first down marker.

[red]

STOP SPINNING AND RUNNING BACKWARDS AT THE FIRST DOWN MARKER EVERYONE!

poor coaching

[pbmax]

I was at that Game. WAY UP HIGH in Level 700.

Geronimo!

[Harlan Huckleby]

dink and dunk um to death

[MadtownPacker]

Anyone have an Ahman flashback with Davis in #30?

[ThunderDan]

I thought that was going to be Davis' 1st TD.

[red]

wr davis, IMO looked good in training camp

he could be a player

[pittstang5]

Rogers and the WRs taken advantage of the CBs playing off

[red]

Anyone have an Ahman flashback with Davis in #30?

ahman would have run mother fuckers over for the first

[pittstang5]

Well that sucked!

[pbmax]

Terrible blocking on that. Rip should be blocking not catching that.

[yetisnowman]

Quick screen to the fullback. Makes sense

[pittstang5]

that sucked Too. Gotta punch this one in

[gbgary]

don't try to be fancy here.

[MadtownPacker]

dink and dunk um to death
Just like you dunkin cookies on your way to the grave!!!

[red]

someone must have yelled at a-rod this week, he's throwing to somewhat covered recievers

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Geronimo!

[Rastak]

Why are these morons rushing 3?

[pbmax]

GERONIMO!!!!

[pittstang5]

GERONIMO!!!!!

[beveaux1]

Allison TD

[gbgary]

Allison!!

[ThunderDan]

Geronimo!!!!!

[yetisnowman]

Yeah baby!!!!!

[Cheesehead Craig]

The offense looks great. WRs are getting open.

[red]

A RED ZONE THREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TravisWilliams23]

Fuckdoggle!

[Maxie the Taxi]

Abby who?

[Cheesehead Craig]

someone must have yelled at a-rod this week, he's throwing to somewhat covered recievers
I wonder if Rogers is sick of the media comments and is out to prove something today.

[ThunderDan]

O looking great to start.

[red]

The offense looks great. WRs are getting open.

no, a-rod is just finally throwing to guys that have recievers within 15 yards of them

[KYPack]

It's OK Mad.

You can call us dumb ass Blancos for not digging Adams constantly.

[gbgary]

Why are these morons rushing 3?

trying to cover everyone. didn't work this time.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Anyone have an Ahman flashback with Davis in #30?

uhh, no. Knile looks pretty generic. But a healthy JAG is good enough for this offense.

The Oline is kicking ass. I guarantee a win.

[gbgary]

need a stop from the d.

[smuggler]

So.... that's pretty awesome.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Abby who?

too soon

[KalamazooPackerFan]

need a stop from the d.

this

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Crap calll

[Harlan Huckleby]

TERRIBLE call. offensive PI

[ThunderDan]

That is a horrible call. That was O PI.

[Cheesehead Craig]

What the hell was that call?

[MadScientist]

That was a bullshit PI.

[TravisWilliams23]

Terrible outside seal.

[ThunderDan]

Come on D.

[Rastak]

Helluva rushing defense.

[pbmax]

Hyde with PHENOMENAL fill on that run. forced runner back to help. Even as Elliot lost the edge.


GUNTER! THE OCTOPUS!

[Rastak]

I guess it's even on the PI calls.

[beveaux1]

Gunter is really not playing poorly.

[TravisWilliams23]

Hyde with PHENOMENAL fill on that run. forced runner back to help. Even as Elliot lost the edge.


GUNTER! THE OCTOPUS!

He ALMOST grabbed the facemask. Fortunate his fingers didn't get stuck in the bars.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Goodson playing well too. Maybe a half dozen Fuckdoggles today.

[ThunderDan]

Gunter is really not playing poorly.

Other than missing a tackle early that cost us 3 points.

[Cheesehead Craig]

That really was a good defensive series.

[beveaux1]

We might have another good CB.

[red]

lol

team says they aren't gonna chance it with cobbs injury

where was that thinking 2 weeks ago with eddy?

[ThunderDan]

We might have another good CB.

We will need another with Shields.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Gotta make that pass, even with pressure

[red]

my god, theres the shit throws coming back

[red]

We will need another with Shields.

shields is done

[Cheesehead Craig]

What a whiff by the OL

[Rastak]

Block in the back.


(Two holds means there was three fouls)

[pbmax]

O line blew that protection.

[beveaux1]

Pretty bad series.

[red]

GET RID OF THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he did have an opportunity troy, he could have gotten rid of the ball in the 6 seconds he had

[ThunderDan]

OL confused on protection. Tretter and Lang discussing after the sack.

[Cheesehead Craig]

GET RID OF THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he did have an opportunity troy, he could have gotten rid of the ball in the 6 seconds he had

BS on that, he had no chance

[ThunderDan]

D needs a stop here.

[ThunderDan]

Good coverage from Gunter but if he turns he gets the pick.

[pbmax]

If that had not been a double move route, Gunter was lost. The route ran BACK into Gunters trailing coverage.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Great stop

[yetisnowman]

If haha breaks on the ball. That's a pick

[beveaux1]

Really good defense.

[ThunderDan]

Julio Jones dinged up.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Davis!!!!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

speed kills

[beveaux1]

Davis is FAST!!!

[pbmax]

WOW. Nice runback. Pure speed.

[ThunderDan]

Great punt return by Davis.

[red]

Great return

[gbgary]

Davis...nice return.

[red]

oh good, now i'm gonna lose julio too

[Rastak]

Very nice return.

[Cheesehead Craig]

I think Jones is done

[ThunderDan]

Holding ATL.

[KYPack]

I feel guilty sometimes when I'm happy to see an opponents injury.

With Jones' ding, I only feel half guilty

[red]

kinda looked like that guy was trying to twist the shit out of a-rods knee

[pbmax]

Man there are a lot of Packers fans there. Must have been the Southern vacation destination choice this year :)

Like a college Bowl game.

[red]

FUCK ADAMS!!!!!!!

nice blocking janis

[ThunderDan]

Whew...ATL player touched out of bounds.

[pbmax]

Man, don't try to do too much Fresno Freak!

[red]

wow

[Cheesehead Craig]

Davis is a fucking stud!

[Harlan Huckleby]

the davis fuckdoggle fight will be epic

[pbmax]

WHEW!!! TD!

[gbgary]

Davis with the finish!

[beveaux1]

Davis has HANDS!

[ThunderDan]

Boom, 3 first half TD throws for ARod.

[red]

wow again after the replay

[KYPack]

Davis has Abby's job for real now.

[pbmax]

the davis fuckdoggle fight will be epic

Fourth round cutoff?!

[TravisWilliams23]

Wow. Kinda reminds me of James Jones catches there in the playoff back in 10.
