Official Packers - Bucaneers Game Day Thread

[ThunderDan]

Last year the Packers were 4-6 and swirling the drain. I decided it was time for me to step up and carry the team to the finish line. The Packers went 8-1 while I started the threads but came up 1 game short of the Superb Owl.

A year later, the Packers are in even a worse shape. 5-6, ARod on IR and Hundley starting at least another 2 weeks. So, once again ThunderDan steps to the plate and gets ready to finish the season out for PackerRats.

The Packers win today because of some reason I can't think of at the moment but I am sure it will become clear during the game.

Packers 19 - Bucs 16

[pbmax]

Pack wins 29 - 17 in an offensive explosion.

[Teamcheez1]

I always want a win, but at this point, I would prefer a higher draft choice. I also need the loss to potentially keep AR from coming back this season for nothing.

Winning would probably save all the coaching/administrative jobs. This is a lose/lose proposition.

[CaptainKickass]

Obligatory game day post.

[channtheman]

Thanks Dan. When I saw you started the thread, I instantly had memories of last season's magical run. Can you deliver for the second year in a row? I think you can!

[wist43]

Bucs 27
Pack 20

Would rather just lose out at this point and get position for the draft; then again, that is a pretty fruitless venture too.

Really hoping the defense collapses altogether... if it gets Dom fired, it would be the best case scenario long term.

hopefully the reason is that they score more points.

meh

[red]

must win game

if we lose today, we're probably going to be 3 games back with 4 games to go

[beveaux1]

Two announcers that are doing their first NFL game this year? Wow. How the mighty have fallen.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I'm here today to listen to others and learn.

[red]

"packers D gets a boost with the return of mathews"

should really gives us a pass rush"

LOL, ok jen

[ThunderDan]

SFox has as 5-4 on the score line.

[ThunderDan]

Dean Lowry with the stop.

[ThunderDan]

How does Fox have us at 5-4? Doesn't someone actually look at what is on the screen?

[pbmax]

Dead giveaway to the run is weak side WR reducing his split to crack back on safety or OLB,

[ThunderDan]

Now the Bucs are 3-6.

[pbmax]

nice play by Clark. Won't be sack but very good.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Two announcers that are doing their first NFL game this year? Wow. How the mighty have fallen.
The battle of the bays.

[ThunderDan]

13 with an OPI before the ball was thrown.

[gbgary]

3 passes, 3 first downs given up. ugh

[gbgary]

if the blitz can't get to the quarterback then they need to stop blitzing

[ThunderDan]

nice play by Clark. Won't be sack but very good.

Dial.

[pbmax]

Finally a play on the ball.

[beveaux1]

How easy.

[red]

too fucking easy

[ThunderDan]

Touchdown. Great job D.

[pbmax]

At this point, man coverage and five pass rushers clearly doesn't work. Its time to give up that ghost.

[red]

burnett was playing up, no safety help deep

[ThunderDan]

Finally, Fox fixed the records.

[beveaux1]

burnett was playing up, no safety help deep

Unless you consider Whitehead safety help.

[Harlan Huckleby]

fucking Hundley!

[pbmax]

Why is Whitehead out there? Is he the dime corner?

No King today?

Green Bay Packers
20 CB Kevin King
44 CB Donatello Brown
62 G Lucas Patrick
77 G/T Adam Pankey
89 WR Michael Clark
90 DT Montravius Adams
98 LB Chris Odom

[pbmax]

burnett was playing up, no safety help deep

Where as Dix?

[pbmax]

I have never seen two safeties play that deep and THAT far apart. Weird.

[red]

i'm nowhere near as impressed with burnett as a lot of you and everyone else is i guess.

his coverage isn'r good, and he obviously isn't worth a shit at getting guys lined up and seeing what plays are coming and making adjustments

the only thing he's "good" at, is playing that ILB hybrid spot, where he hasn't been doing a whole hell of a lot there either lately

[Harlan Huckleby]

badger sighting

[beveaux1]

Well. This one hasn't started well.

[red]

Where as Dix?

same place he's been all year, nowhere near the ball

[ThunderDan]

Shoot, didn't even affect the return.

[pbmax]

Completely unnecessary Vince.

[channtheman]

Completely unnecessary penalty.

[beveaux1]

Nice run.

[Harlan Huckleby]

nice

[ThunderDan]

Great run by Williams.

[red]

maybe haha is being punished for saying its not his fault he sucks, he's just doing what he's told

[channtheman]

Completely unnecessary Vince.

Woah, great minds an all.

Nice running!

[woodbuck27]

In our Pro Pickem 8 of the 10 Remaining members have picked the Packers to win today.

[beveaux1]

One less official hasn't stopped the flags.

[pbmax]

Williams can just flat run in between the tackles. Its not going to explode, but he's going to get you yards.

[red]

nice play by adams to make something out of a shit play

[pbmax]

bach having a rough couple of weeks.

[ThunderDan]

Good move by Adams and good down field blocking by the WRs.

[woodbuck27]

GO PACK GO !

[channtheman]

Smoove moves by Adams. Nice gain.

[red]

Williams can just flat run in between the tackles. Its not going to explode, but he's going to get you yards.

fat mike needs to figure that out though, and not run him outside all the time like he did with lacy

[beveaux1]

He runs hard.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Williams is quicker than I thought

[pbmax]

That was a nice throw to a spot.

And another nice run off the edge.

[ThunderDan]

Williams really gets through the line well.

[gbgary]

Williams is rolling.

[red]

yup, move monty back to WR

williams and adams are our future at RB

[channtheman]

Good hard running by Williams. Nice cut and go.

[pbmax]

They will boot hundley off that later. Run or pass after that.

[Harlan Huckleby]

poor Mays. His fumble wasn't THAT bad.

[beveaux1]

Hundley looks better.

[pbmax]

yup, move monty back to WR

williams and adams are our future at RB

Jones.

[red]

another slant

why can't we run those with a-rod?

[Harlan Huckleby]

Jones is active, wonder if he'll get carries ahead of MAys

[ThunderDan]

poor Mays. His fumble wasn't THAT bad.

Yup, 3 touches 2 fumbles not that bad.:bang:

[red]

Jones.

thats the one

[channtheman]

Hundley is starting to look like an NFL QB. But dang that cushion on 3rd and 2. :shock:

[pbmax]

Some sweet run blocking.

[ThunderDan]

Dick Rod looked like he had never run before there.

[red]

Jones is active, wonder if he'll get carries ahead of MAys

maybe next series

we all know fatty likes to rot RB's by series

actually, he was just in on that play to adams

[mraynrand]

I always hated the Silverdome. More reason to hate it:

http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/03/us/detroit-silverdome-implosion-attempt/index.html

P.S Wist - if only they had hired the WTC CIA guys it would have come down

[pbmax]

One cut Davante, just the one.

[channtheman]

Dick Rod looked like he had never run before there.

Thought the same thing. Looked like he didn't know what to do once he caught the ball.

[mraynrand]

Dick Rod looked like he had never run before there.

like every time he runs

[gbgary]

terrible pass.

[beveaux1]

Wide open. He missed it.

[red]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLXj_wH2OoI

[pbmax]

That was the fault of the QB

[ThunderDan]

He had him.

[pbmax]

I am starting to hate FGs

[channtheman]

What? Come on Hundley!

[ThunderDan]

like every time he runs

Last week he had the great seem route. This one it looked like he was running for the first time ever.

[pbmax]

like every time he runs

C'mon guys, you are tough graders! He did dive/fall down for the first.

[channtheman]

He underthrew everything last week. Would have preferred that again right there.

[red]

I always hated the Silverdome. More reason to hate it:

http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/03/us/detroit-silverdome-implosion-attempt/index.html

P.S Wist - if only they had hired the WTC CIA guys it would have come down

lol, only in detroit

if they would have let one of the auto companies build the thing in the first place, it would have rusted to the ground long agao

[beveaux1]

We avoided another shutout.

[mraynrand]

lol, only in detroit

if they would have let one of the auto companies build the thing in the first place, it would have rusted to the ground long agao

hahahahaha

[mraynrand]

C'mon guys, you are tough graders! He did dive/fall down for the first.

fall

[pbmax]

Perry and Ponch. Nice play on misdirect.

[ThunderDan]

Perry runs down Winston.

[red]

perry blew contain in the first place greg

[beveaux1]

Jennings is really bad as an announcer.

[pbmax]

Ryan played that well in coverage too.

NOW THAT WAS SOME PASS PRESSURE! BROOKS!

[gbgary]

Greg Jennings hasn't really added anything yet.

[ThunderDan]

Nice 3 and out.

[mraynrand]

Jennings is really bad as an announcer.

Stubby wasn't an announcer guru

[pbmax]

And a punt I think that is called.

[channtheman]

Jennings is really bad as an announcer.

He put da team on his back, dawg.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Don't see any way the PAckers lose to this motley crew.

[beveaux1]

Greg Jennings hasn't really added anything yet.

He needs to practice more. He's the worst I've heard this year.

[ThunderDan]

That's a great commercial for Battlefront.

[red]

Don't see any way the PAckers lose to this motley crew.

we're already losing

[channtheman]

That's a pretty pimped out Raiders sweater.

[ThunderDan]

Great scramble and run by Hundley.

[red]

That's a great commercial for Battlefront.

the game that might finally bring down EA

[mraynrand]

Don't see any way the PAckers lose to this Mötley Crüe.

indeed
http://img.wennermedia.com/social/rs-241949-GettyImages-92705190.jpg

[red]

good job guys, now lets see if we can get 3 flags on the next play

[ThunderDan]

That's a pretty pimped out Raiders sweater.

They have those in the Packer Pro Shop for GB.

[beveaux1]

Don't really understand the 1st and 20 I formation run up the gut.

[red]

that was a pretty bring first half

blah

[channtheman]

I really love the pace of the NFL. After watching 4+ hour college games yesterday, it's nice to watch games that actually end.

[pbmax]

SPRIGGS™ WATCH

1st down blew call on pass pro, blocked down and allowed free rusher (BH scramble for first)
1st down nice run block but lost control at end gain of five (penalty)
1st down sealed his guy off of draw play to opposite guard hole

[Teamcheez1]

Offense going nowhere again.

[channtheman]

Flags everywhere! Flagpocalypse!

[ThunderDan]

Really, they didn't call Mike Evans doing the exact same thing earlier.

[mraynrand]

SPRIGGS™ WATCH

I have a Spriggs watch. It isn't right even twice a day.

[pbmax]

SPRIGGS™ WATCH

1st down blew call on pass pro, blocked down and allowed free rusher (BH scramble for first)
1st down nice run block but lost control at end gain of five (penalty)
1st down sealed his guy off of draw play to opposite guard hole

2nd down, blocks down on pass pro. Stunt goes around him but picked up by Williams in a move that seemed designed because JW was right there on edge
3rd down controls his guy but M3 has put Williams on him as backup help

[Teamcheez1]

Packers sure look like a team that will find ways to lose today.

[beveaux1]

Every penalty in this game has been against us.

[channtheman]

Flags amor! Geez refs, we commit a penalty on every play apparently.

[channtheman]

When in doubt, call it on us, refs!

[ThunderDan]

Bullshit, the guard went down to make Daniels move.

[Rutnstrut]

Sloppy team not ready to play is on stubby.

[channtheman]

Bullshit, the guard went down to make Daniels move.

Yup, was pretty clear... to all but these refs.

[pbmax]

How do you call that when two O lineman have stood up to hear an audible?

[beveaux1]

Nice play by Ryan.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Flags everywhere! Flagpocalypse!

flagulance

[ThunderDan]

Good play by Ryan.

[beveaux1]

Daniels!

[pbmax]

RYAN!

[channtheman]

Refs get your hands on your flags. We got em in a 3rd down!

[pbmax]

Daniels beat a double team

[Harlan Huckleby]

Packers sure look like a team that will find ways to lose today.

Bucs are worse on offense. They'll have to look harder to find path to defeat.

[channtheman]

Matthews didn't do anything, old Greg.

[wist43]

A rare forced punt... Capers has only forced 41 punts going into this game. 30th in the NFL.

[beveaux1]

Matthews didn't do anything, old Greg.

Probably get credit for 1/2 sack.

[beveaux1]

Bad, bad pass.

[pbmax]

Matthews cleaned it up, which the Packers don't aways do. Just think how many times QBs escape pressure and run free.

He got open because Winston had to move due to Daniels pressure. He got right around his lineman when the target moved.

[mraynrand]

Probably get credit for 1/2 sack.

hahahaha

[Teamcheez1]

Hundley game against Steelers was a fluke.

[channtheman]

What kind of effort was that by Nelson. Or was the throw that bad?

[pbmax]

Horrible. That looked like the 3 INT game.

[ThunderDan]

Good idea, but didn't get the safety off the play. Need to throw to the outside.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Bucs are worse on offense. They'll have to look harder to find path to defeat.:oops:

[channtheman]

What kind of effort was that by Nelson. Or was the throw that bad?

Nevermind. That throw was terrible.

[mraynrand]

Horrible. That looked like the 3 INT game.

we call that "the 5 TO game" in these parts.

[pbmax]

SPRIGGS™ WATCH

Blocked down to double team DT. DickRod got DE. Doesn't look like they trust him one on one much

[ThunderDan]

Good play by House to get the WR out of bounds.

[beveaux1]

SPIGGS™ WATCH

Blocked down to double team DT. DickRod got DE. Doesn't look like they trust him one on one much

Would you?

[pbmax]

OOB no?

[channtheman]

Good play by House to get the WR out of bounds.

Yeah, he made the best of a bad situation after he fell down.

[yetisnowman]

Hundley returning to form. I just don't how that looked like a good idea before he threw it.

[pbmax]

What kind of effort was that by Nelson. Or was the throw that bad?

I am not sure he could have gotten to it. Almost throw to wrong hash.

[gbgary]

looks like both teams shot their wad on their first drives. going to be crap the rest of the way.

[channtheman]

I am not sure he could have gotten to it. Almost throw to wrong hash.

Yeah, I was looking at my laptop and caught just a bit of it. Saw on the replay how bad it was.

[beveaux1]

Hundley is what he is, a back up QB. Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

[pbmax]

No pressure but good coverage.

[ThunderDan]

D holds for 3 and out after the turnover.

[beveaux1]

Fackrell!

[ThunderDan]

Nice blocked punt by Fackerrell.

[pbmax]

A punt blocked?

Whitehead you are not bright.

FACKRELL!

[channtheman]

Wow. How do you drop that INT?

[gbgary]

when we might get three points out of this.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Don't yell, Greg

[Joemailman]

Jamall!!

[beveaux1]

Nice run!

[pbmax]

Very nice! Good stiff arm

[ThunderDan]

Great stiff arm by Williams.

[Rutnstrut]

Williams waaay better than the fake RB Monty.

[ThunderDan]

Wow, Hundley has good mobility.

[Rutnstrut]

Way, way better.

[channtheman]

Hundley should just run it on all the play actions. He knows he'll just throw an INT if he doesn't.

[ThunderDan]

Don't yell, Greg

Gus Johnson junior.

[channtheman]

Run it 3 more times. Don't screw this up with Hundley.

[beveaux1]

That was ALL Williams.

[gbgary]

nice!

[Rutnstrut]

Way, way,way, better;)

[Harlan Huckleby]

superman

[ThunderDan]

Great effort by Williams.

[gbgary]

Gus Johnson junior.

lol
can stand all his yelling.

[Joemailman]

Williams waaay better than the fake RB Monty.

Probably a good thing Monty didn't change his jerset number.

[ThunderDan]

Jennings with no clue. OL get pushed back, Williams hit 2 yards behind the LOS.

[pbmax]

SPRIGGS™ WATCH

1st down, deal block backside was just fine
1st down blew down block on DT. Complete whiff forced BH from pocket.
1st down blocked down for double team and then got backside backer not bad
2nd and goal blocked down and got stoned, JW ran into his guy, didn't miss but didn't move anyone
3rd and goal cut blocked that delayed but did not bring down DT 93 TD anyway because JW is a load

[channtheman]

What power! Nice run! Hit 4 yards from the end zone. Got 5 yards after contact and in for the TD.

[mraynrand]

Ulrick John, John Ulrick!

[pbmax]

Ripper with great student body left assist

[Harlan Huckleby]

Probably a good thing Monty didn't change his jerset number.

It did have a couple good games at RB that he can put in his scrap book.

[beveaux1]

No Monty love? We really have at least 3 NFL RBs. Monty can play, too.

[channtheman]

Vikings lead Falcons 7-6 with 5:41 to go in the half.

Ravens over Lions 10-0 with 10 to go in the half.

[mraynrand]

Vikings lead Falcons 7-6 with 5:41 to go in the half.

Ravens over Lions 10-0 with 10 to go in the half.

They set off the explosives and the Lions collapsed.

[Harlan Huckleby]

nice tackling

[channtheman]

Let's get a pick six!

[beveaux1]

Every screen goes for big yardage against us.

[Joemailman]

No Monty love? We really have at least 3 NFL RBs. Monty can play, too.

I just think he runs too high inside to survive as a RB. No surprise he had rib injuries this year.

[ThunderDan]

Martinez missed the first tackle.

[pbmax]

Someone might want to watch the RB on pass plays

[mraynrand]

It did have a couple good games at RB that he can put in his scrap book.

Scrap book? He put it on the line with exchange-o-gram.

[pbmax]

They set off the explosives and the Lions collapsed.

:lol:

[mraynrand]

jiminy christmas!

[ThunderDan]

HaHa tackle him don't dive at his feet.

[pbmax]

Clark lost sight of the ball. Not in gap

[beveaux1]

Lowry! TD!

[Joemailman]

Lowry!

[ThunderDan]

Yessssssssssss,

[pbmax]

FAT MAN TOUCHDOWN! AND LEAP!

[Maxie the Taxi]

94 short-armed that one.

[gbgary]

lol

[channtheman]

FUMBLE SIX!!! I'll take it! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

hopefully the reason is that they score more points.

That's the reason, Lowry pick 6.

[pbmax]

Goode with bade snap.

[Harlan Huckleby]

i thought they'd review knee down

[pbmax]

94 short-armed that one.

The catch or the leap? Pretty good wheels though.

[channtheman]

What is the announcer talking about? Debate if his knee hit... as we are actively kicking the extra point. It's almost like they have all the cliches written down and say them at random without observing anything.

[MadScientist]

Is that a sack-fumble-six or a pick-six? It looked like he was trying to throw it.

[gbgary]

oh no...our exhausted defense is back on the field. lol

[Harlan Huckleby]

FAT MAN TOUCHDOWN! AND LEAP!

I think Lowry and Bach are Old Country Buffet buddies. Hardly recognize those two from rookie seasons.

[channtheman]

What is the announcer talking about? Debate if his knee hit... as we are actively kicking the extra point. It's almost like they have all the cliches written down and say them at random without observing anything.


There. Is. No. Debate. Terrible announcing. I know it's his first game. But it's not the first game he's ever watched, right?

[pbmax]

Clark had the QB pressure.

[pbmax]

Matthews hurt by missing ref I think. No guy on his side of LOS to see Guard flinch.

[beveaux1]

Counts as another sack.

[ThunderDan]

Good rush so far.

[mraynrand]

Lowry can't pull himself into the stands!

[channtheman]

Is this the largest lead we've had since Rodgers went out?

[beveaux1]

Screen works every time.

[gbgary]

bitten by another screen play.

[ThunderDan]

WR blocking before th ball is there. Cobb got called for that.

[Joemailman]

I can't believe the screen worked against the Packers.

[Harlan Huckleby]

packers read the screen, still couldn't stop it

[channtheman]

If we ran that play, there would have been a flag.

[pbmax]

Defense feeling itself now. Hopeful doesn't get distracted.

You put three WR on one side of ball and Packers don't know what to do.

[beveaux1]

Good rush so far.

They must have a poor OL.

[Maxie the Taxi]

We're clicking on all four cylinders!

[pbmax]

Randall was the only one who saw the problem. Burnett came over to help but he had inside of three receivers. They were still a man short.

I think Jones in backend needed to come up to help.

[pbmax]

WR blocking before th ball is there. Cobb got called for that.

Looked clean on rewind.

[beveaux1]

This team really reminds me of those Packer teams in the 70's and 80's.

[Maxie the Taxi]

This team really reminds me of those Packer teams in the 70's and 80's.:-)

Another sack.

[ThunderDan]

Clay with the suk.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Clay is on fire!

[Harlan Huckleby]

This team really reminds me of those Packer teams in the 70's and 80's.

except smaller shoulder pads

weird that Tampa was in nfc central .... 80s, 90s?

[beveaux1]

Martinez!

[mraynrand]

except smaller shoulder pads

weird that Tampa was in nfc central .... 80s, 90s?

70's too - with Ron Wolf. Ha ha

[pbmax]

Defensive MVP Martinez defeats screen by himself.
