Brett Hundley comes in, stays calm in the storm.... he grinds and perseveres and pulls out his first NFL W! We’ll never forget you, Erin.

[Joemailman]

Waiting for the status of the B & B Boys. Sounds like Bu is a go and Bakh is a maybe.

[pbmax]

I would be stunned if Bach went after coming out of the game last week.

[pbmax]

Inactives: Bach giving it a go. Randall might not start in slot but he's going to play. No Burnett or Brooks for D, Taylor out for Offense.

[Tony Oday]

35-17 Packers 2 pick sixes for the Pack.

[mraynrand]

35-17 Packers 2 pick sixes for the Pack.

This is bold AF. I'm predicting two WR reverses of 80 yards or more for TDs. Final TD will be Crosby on fake FG end-around fumble-rooskie option.

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet 57m57 minutes ago
An update on #Packers QBs Aaron Rodgers and Brett Hundley, along with why #Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater is fine taking his time returning:

https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/922121720923918341

You will want to see the video of the interview for additional context, but unlike Adam Schefter, RapSheet says Packer NOT expecting Rodgers to return this year. Does not discuss Scheffer's claim about rehab beginning at 6 weeks after surgery. RapSheet's report is an hour old, Schefter posted at 9 AM Central. However, RapSheet has been giving the same report all weekend including 5 hours ago on TV.

Schefter would seem to be the more positive timeline, RapSheet the most negative. Tom Pelissero chimed in, saying it will be weeks before they know how optimistic they should be. Which means its all dependent on the speed of bone healing and showing up on tape (or X ray).

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde‏ @jasonjwilde 54s55 seconds ago
Based on how the #Packers are lining up in warm-ups, it looks like Justin McCray will be at left guard with Lane Taylor out.

[Tony Oday]

All hands on deck and yes hold AT. Honestly our players have had the crutch for years in AR, now they have to rely on themselves and I think we will see elevated play.

[CaptainKickass]

Obligatory game day post.

[ThunderDan]

Packer players will have their best game in years. I don't know if it will be enough to pull out the victory.

Saints 24 - Packers 21

35-17 Packers 2 pick sixes for the Pack.

thats pretty wishful thinking seeings how brees has only thrown 2 ints against us for his whole career, vs 17 tds

[ThunderDan]

thats pretty wishful thinking seeings how brees has only thrown 2 ints against us for his whole career, vs 17 tds

So you mean there is a chance!

[red]

alright new brett, show us what you got

[ThunderDan]

Here we go.

Great first down run by Jones.

[ThunderDan]

Another good run to the left.

[Rutnstrut]

Here we go.

Great first down run by Jones.

Now if stubby will stick with him.

[MadScientist]

Should have been PI on that as well

[red]

nice try on the free down

wind i think will be a factor today

[ThunderDan]

How is that not pass interference? The CB never looked back for the ball and hit the WR?

[Rutnstrut]

That's what a REAL running back looks like. Hopefully Monty is gone.

[MadScientist]

I like this Jones kid!

[ThunderDan]

Boom, great lead play.

[red]

Should have been PI on that as well

though to call when the ball is underthrown and the we has to come back for it like that

nice TD run by jones. way to find the hole

[ThunderDan]

That's what a REAL running back looks like. Hopefully Monty is gone.

I could have scored on that play. Bacteria pulled and led Jones right into the hole. No one even touched him.

[Joemailman]

Okay I think he's the starter. What's his first name again?

[Rutnstrut]

Stubby better keep that worthless imposter of a back Mongomery on the bench.

[MadScientist]

When was the last time a Packers running back could take a run up the middle for more than 40 yards like that.

Also when is the last time the Packers had a 70+ yard drive without a single completed pass?

[Harlan Huckleby]

Inactives: Bach giving it a go.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DMwKwkaW4AAUqxB.jpg

With two OL inactive, Bach better be better than a "nice try"

[ThunderDan]

Nice tackle by King. Could have been a big gainer.

[red]

fuck our defense

[Harlan Huckleby]

Hey, I'm recording the game and haven't started it yet - no spoilers!

[ThunderDan]

Let's hold the,m here D.

[red]

nice tackle by haha

need to wrap up thought, that could have easily been a miss

[ThunderDan]

Another screen for big yardage.

[MadScientist]

Gotta stop those fucking screens.

[channtheman]

Terrible tackle by Clinton-Dix but effective.

[ThunderDan]

Brees put to the ground. Need to keep the pressure up.

[red]

wow

we were completely fucking lost before that play

1 wasted TO for stupidity

[red]

nice stop

[ThunderDan]

Nice short yardage D.

[red]

nice stop

nvm

[mmmdk]

Nobody is scared of the Packers D.

[red]

hey 50, get up on the guy running wide open in front of you for the 1st

[MadScientist]

They finally read a screen.

[ThunderDan]

Hey, we smelled out a screen.

[ThunderDan]

Ankle biter with the INT.

[MadScientist]

Randall with a pick on good coverage!

[channtheman]

My 100% legal stream is behind by 15-20 seconds so I get a little sneak peak if I read the comments here too soon.

[red]

ha

god damnit, another ball thrown right to randall, he's gonna get a big head that he doesn't really deserve

[MadScientist]

Lets see Jones get 80 yards running on this drive.

[channtheman]

WHODAT?!

[mmmdk]

Wow. Brees with tons of time and a TERRIBLE throw - Packers took the gift. Thank you!

[channtheman]

ha

god damnit, another ball thrown right to randall, he's gonna get a big head that he doesn't really deserve


But you still have to catch em.

[ThunderDan]

Dilly dilly.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Dilly dilly!

[channtheman]

Dilly dilly!

[red]

on replay, randall was beat again, it was a really bad throw

[Teamcheez1]

Stupid call.

[channtheman]

Drew Brees was all like "But on tape Randall doesn't cover the guy! He doesn't cover the guy!"

[red]

risky throw

so is this the game play fat ass came up with. run the ball and 1 and 2 yard passes?

real guru

[ThunderDan]

on replay, randall was beat again, it was a really bad throw

He was right in his hip pocket. Ball needed to be long not short.

Packer ball on the muff.

[mmmdk]

Weird 3rd and short call.

[red]

wtf?

if a guy bobbles the ball on a fair catch, you have to sit there and let him get it back

horse shit rule

[MadScientist]

I don't like that rule. If you bobble you should be fair game.

[mmmdk]

wtf ?

[pbmax]

Technical issues prevented viewing game until now.

I assume the Packer apocalypse is well under way despite 7 point lead?

[Teamcheez1]

Weird 3rd and short call.

You've had success running the ball, so make sure you throw it when you need a couple of feet.

[channtheman]

If you call a fair catch, can you bounce the ball in your hands indefinitely attempting to catch it?

[mmmdk]

Terrible rule.

[Tony Oday]

Refs trying to screw us again

[Rutnstrut]

Dilly dilly!

My wife is so sick of me replying Dilly, dilly to things. A friend and I were actually saying it when we were out the other night. Our wives were not impressed, the other people in the bar thought it was fun. Wives always putting a damper on fun.

[ThunderDan]

If you call a fair catch, can you bounce the ball in your hands indefinitely attempting to catch it?

Can you do that advancing toward the end zone? No possession until down the field.

[red]

that is a terrible rule

[channtheman]

Can you do that advancing toward the end zone? No possession until down the field.

Was just imagining this scenario myself. Guy runs down the field as he "bobbles" it all the way to the end zone. Fair catch for a touchdown!

[red]

Technical issues prevented viewing game until now.

I assume the Packer apocalypse is well under way despite 7 point lead?

jones ran for 70 yards and a TD on first drive, randall got an INT in the endzone on saints first drive

[ThunderDan]

Hit the ground.

[MadScientist]

No rush, shitty coverage.

[red]

SOMEONE MIGHT WANT TO TOUCH THE FUCKING GUY ON THE GROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rutnstrut]

Geeze how about a pass rush.

[pbmax]

HOUSE!!!


Trees like Aikman doesn't like rain.

[MadScientist]

House!

[red]

thank god for the vet house.

he saves a TD by ouching the guy down that two other fools just looked at

THEN AN INT

now that was being in the guys pocket

[ThunderDan]

thats pretty wishful thinking seeings how brees has only thrown 2 ints against us for his whole career, vs 17 tds

Boom, so there is a chance!

[Maxie the Taxi]

Dilly dilly!

[channtheman]

Lets go Pack! Woooo! Time for another TD now.

[pbmax]

jones ran for 70 yards and a TD on first drive, randall got an INT in the endzone on saints first drive

Sounds like a solid game plan.

[pbmax]

SOMEONE MIGHT WANT TO TOUCH THE FUCKING GUY ON THE GROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brice literally tripped over him.

[mmmdk]

Packers D need to create many turnovers to give Packers a win....but no more BS calls from McStubby please.

[MadScientist]

Just run the ball. The Saints defense is making Jones look like a mix of Payton and Sanders. (Unlike Lacy who looked like Payton ate Sanders).

[red]

Boom, so there is a chance!

i wasn't expecting it to happen

he said 2 pick sixes though

[channtheman]

NO! Get Ty out of there!

[Tony Oday]

88 needs to be benched. You have to cut that back.

[MadScientist]

Mongomery doesn't have Jone's speed to cut back.

[Teamcheez1]

The playcalling is just garbage.

[pbmax]

How was Monty in short yardage last year?

[ThunderDan]

Ugh, that was horrible blocking on 3 and 1

[Rutnstrut]

So there you go as I said. Dumbass stubby HAS to fuck with what is working.

[red]

total confidence in the kid huh

is that why you haven't let him throw the ball longer then 2 yards?

[mmmdk]

Another three and out.

[channtheman]

Really terrible possession, mostly cause Ty was the running back.

[Teamcheez1]

Will Hundley do anything this game?

[mmmdk]

McStubby ain't fooling nobody.

[red]

no points off those 2 turnovers sucks

[ThunderDan]

Who backed away from the tackle there?

[pbmax]

Really terrible possession, mostly cause Ty was the running back.

It was 3rd and 1 based on 2 Monty runs.

[red]

Will Hundley do anything this game?

doesn't look like fat ass has a game plan for him

[Teamcheez1]

Brees has made mistakes, otherwise the defense is playing poorly.

On pace to give up over 500 yards.

[Rutnstrut]

Brees has made mistakes, otherwise the defense is playing poorly.

And the offense is being coached even more poorly.

[channtheman]

It was 3rd and 1 based on 2 Monty runs.

True. But the other guy is a lot faster, and a lot better.

[Joemailman]

Will Hundley do anything this game?

He's doing a good job of handing off. Baby steps.

[ThunderDan]

Good effort by Ingram there.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Baby steps. Dilly dilly!

[ThunderDan]

Brees has made mistakes, otherwise the defense is playing poorly.

And somehow we are winning.

Kevin King has been standing on the sideline for a few plays now. #Packers have been rolling with House and Hawkins. Not sure why.

[Rutnstrut]

Baby steps. Dilly dilly!

Next maybe a throw for a gain.

[Teamcheez1]

Kamara hasn't been covered by anyone yet.

[red]

faked us out a bit on that play

[MadScientist]

Shitty defense there. WTF.

[Rutnstrut]

And somehow we are winning.

Say again.

[pbmax]

Well someone forgot force or contain.

[Joemailman]

No outside contain.

[Teamcheez1]

Our LB's are really playing like crap.

[ThunderDan]

Dial and someone in the same hole lets Ingram bounce outside.

[beveaux1]

Tie, tie, all tie.

maybe because he was burned so bad on that one long throw, right before house's int

[channtheman]

Dilly dilly. Uh oh.

[Teamcheez1]

Time for another 3 and out on offense.

Run, Run, incomplete pass.

[mmmdk]

Packers D are fighting bravely with what little talent they have - yet 2 ints already - but it's hard to beat the Saints when they have a secret weapon in Stubby.

If Saints RB Mark Ingram made that look easy, it's because #Packers had 10 defenders on the field.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Will Hundley do anything this game?

They let him throw a 1/2 yard pass on third and one that wouldn't have been a first down even if the guy caught it.

That had to be the worst play call of the decade.

[red]

Well someone forgot force or contain.

we'll get that fixed

[Maxie the Taxi]

Drew and Randy in a shootout!

[pbmax]

They have to stop dragging Bart out on the field. Guy can barely stand up. Its an effort to walk, stand or raise his head and wave.

[beveaux1]

I think they might open up a little on offense this series. Not first down, though.

[Rutnstrut]

They let him throw a 1/2 yard pass on third and one that wouldn't have been a first down even if the guy caught it.

That had to be the worst play call of the decade.

Unfortunately the decade ain't over and we have stubby...

[Maxie the Taxi]

They let him throw a 1/2 yard pass on third and one that wouldn't have been a first down even if the guy caught it.

That had to be the worst play call of the decade.It could be worse. It could've been the last play in the Super Bowl and an interception.

But aren't they normally riding in a vehicle?


Jordy was open but under thrown.

[Rutnstrut]

it's a run or deep pass that is all stubby has.

[Harlan Huckleby]

nearly 1 TD 5 INT career stat

[ThunderDan]

Hundley needed to throw that deeper.

[Joemailman]

Threw into double coverage.

[red]

two long throws, two underthrows

[pbmax]

Do you say "no" to the Starr family?

Give the man a cart.

That was a lovely fake end around and pass to Cobb.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Cobb is a first down machine.

[ThunderDan]

Nice play design there. Horse collar on tackle.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Cobb helpfully explaining the penalty to the guy LOL

[Rutnstrut]

There we go.

[Joemailman]

Bennett sighting.

[ThunderDan]

Nice catch by Bennett on a low throw.

[red]

here we go

now we're letting him play

[Harlan Huckleby]

Hundley completes pass to Bennett

double miracle!

[pbmax]

Last year when losing to ATL in playoff I asked myself, why can't Pack upgrade to House and Hawkins next year?

I can't tell if you are kidding but I am sure the point stands either way. :)

[Maxie the Taxi]

Who is the moron doing color commentary?

[Rutnstrut]

Jones is just SO much better than Ty.

[red]

man, look at jones go

thats fun to watch him bounce around in there

[MadScientist]

Anybody else loose audio from fox? Can't say it hurts the game.

[mmmdk]

I like Jones!

[pbmax]

Who were you reading that the give looked like a good option?

OK, backside DE

[red]

Anybody else loose audio from fox? Can't say it hurts the game.

nope

[ThunderDan]

Huh, different RB gets no yardage when blocking sucks.

[red]

offsetting?

[pbmax]

I think Linsley benched someone again. Automatic flag.

[ThunderDan]

Offsetting penalties.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Who is the moron doing color commentary?

you mean in this thread?

[Joemailman]

Who is the moron doing color commentary?

Charles Davis.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Hundley run for the TD. Dilly dilly!

[red]

TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

new brett

[beveaux1]

TD Hundley!

[pbmax]

Oh no, he held and took him down. Was falling down.


TD!!! An answer and a Leap.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Hundley the hero!

[Rutnstrut]

Yes, love seeing him not go oob like a pussy.

[Joemailman]

Brett 2!!!

[mmmdk]

Huh, different RB gets no yardage when blocking sucks.

True but Jones >>> Monty

[MadScientist]

Screw running out of bounds. Hundley with his first Lambeau Leap!

[ThunderDan]

Touchdown Hundley.

Bennett with a perfect block not going back to blow the Saints DB up.

[Maxie the Taxi]

you mean in this thread?No. I know all the morons here. lol

[red]

guys got speed

[pbmax]

Going to be a battle of leaky Defenses.

[mmmdk]

I like Hundley too!

[Harlan Huckleby]

I have to take a giant dump but think I can hold it till halftime.

[channtheman]

Ahhh, it is refreshing to watch a QB who doesn't unbuckle his chin strap after every play. Dilly dilly.

[ThunderDan]

Say again.

And somehow we are winning.

[ThunderDan]

Say again.

See how stupid playing that game is?

[Harlan Huckleby]

whups

[Tony Oday]

Jones Is a running back man that kid is good and Brett is HOF! Lol

[Rutnstrut]

And somehow we are winning.

Notice he went away from the shit he was doing on the 3 and outs and went with the real RB.

[pbmax]

True but Jones >>> Monty

I agree with you and Dan.

Blocking needs to be there, but Monty isn't a terrible option at RB. But I do like Jones better. Monty would be perfect on 3rd down.

He can pass block, run and catch plus split out and be a WR.

[red]

jones with the wrecking ball block on the TD run

[pbmax]

jones with the wrecking ball block on the TD run

And he was falling down!

[ThunderDan]

Man, you are a broken record.

I hate MM. I hate TT. Packers are pussies and always hurt.

[Joemailman]

Notice he went away from the shit he was doing on the 3 and outs and went with the real RB.

You do understand that your starting running back can't be out there on every play?

[mmmdk]

I really hope we win this one...I need my eldest brother to STFU (he's a Saints fan).

[Harlan Huckleby]

Packer defense is bend and break. Except for interceptions

[pbmax]

How the heck can you not cover Coby Fleener? Blown match up zone.

[MadScientist]

I hate the 'let at least one guy be uncovered' defense.

[ThunderDan]

There is the problem with the blitz. TE pops open in space.

[red]

COVER THE FUCKING te'S OVER THE FUCKING MIDDLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what is this, 7 or 8 fucking years in a row of us not being able to do that?

[Maxie the Taxi]

Two best tacklers on the team right there. King and the Mexican.

[ThunderDan]

There is the TD run play again with the D keeping contain.

[Guiness]

Martinez having a whale of a game!

[red]

good stand

[MadScientist]

A NO punt? I didn't think they did that.

[pbmax]

Saints are very predictable by D personnel. You go base they are throwing.

You go nickel they will choose run.

[Joemailman]

House sure looks like Al Harris.

[red]

that was king on the coverage guy, not house

i think

[pbmax]

Martinez having a whale of a game!

They seriously might have found a 3 down ILB.

[pbmax]

Two best tacklers on the team right there. King and the Mexican.

plus Jones.

[mmmdk]

Now they punt? I wouldn't!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Let Hundley get in rhythm.

A NO punt? I didn't think they did that.

Change is good.

[red]

There is the TD run play again with the D keeping contain.

did we still only have 10 guys on the field?

if not, then it really isn't that impressive

[Joemailman]

Now they punt? I wouldn't!
Shhhhhh!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Now they punt? I wouldn't!

They aren't afraid of PAcker O

[channtheman]

On the bright side re: Rodgers injury. He can spend a lot more time with his dog now.

[mmmdk]

They aren't afraid of PAcker O

Guess not.

[red]

thats not brett favre guy

[MadScientist]

Brett Favre's first NFL start? Good one Fox guy.

[pbmax]

I wonder if they put the backup WRs out there for Hundey to throw to like Rodgers and Ruvell.

[Rutnstrut]

On the bright side re: Rodgers injury. He can spend a lot more time with his dog now.

It's not really his dog.

[channtheman]

Let's score with no time before the half now Pack.

[pbmax]

One shoelace away from 20 yards.

[channtheman]

It's not really his dog.


No way!

[ThunderDan]

Leg whip. NO defend threw his leg out to trip up Jones.

[red]

look at him go

he looks like a little kid out there

[pbmax]

He's not Cam fast but he might be faster than Rodgers!

[beveaux1]

Nice run!

[Maxie the Taxi]

Randy's a good runner!

[mmmdk]

Awesome!

[pbmax]

I am liking the mesh/handoff action in the backfield.

If its a pass, just like play action. Also has 2 run options (RB and QB)

[channtheman]

It's fun watching Hundley run around. He's a lot faster than Scott Tolzien ever was, though Tolzien did have some sweet moves.

[pbmax]

The Panthers are schizophrenic.

[mmmdk]

Hundley is chewing on something! What?

[Harlan Huckleby]

that screen looked like it was setup well

[Joemailman]

Newton handing a game to the Bears.So far.
