Green Bay Packers - Seattle Seahawks Official Game Day Thread

[ThunderDan]

Packers clash with the Seachickens tonight. Just as long as we don't have a Fail Mary or a Bostickler I think I will be OK.

Packers D was able to clamp down on a poor Dolphins O and despite getting in its own way several times the O put up 31. The special teams better pull its head out of its ass this week or FGs will turn into TDs against a better team.

That being said, this game I think is the toughest game left on the schedule. We have a short week with long travel to a team that is starting to play up to their potential. The Packers have to play well in all phases of the game.

The Packers put a 4th week in a row of decent to good football and pull out a nail biter in Seattle.

Packers 34 - Seattle 31

[mraynrand]

Can't hep lovin' dat thread

[mraynrand]

Packers never win at Seattle against Carroll. Road teams almost never win the Thursday games. Packers can't win on the road this season. Prediction: Packers Win, Effers!!!

[texaspackerbacker]

Russell Wilson is a helluva lot better than Osweiler, and playing to Packer weaknesses, he may even be better than Brady or Goff. However, their D has deteriorated and their O other than Wilson scrambling and either throwing or running is substandard.

Packers 38 Seattle 24

[ThunderDan]

Now that the title is cleared up, fire away!

[mraynrand]

Now that the title is cleared up, fire away!

now my stupid joke has no purpose at all! Wait, that's no different than any other 'joke' I've dropped...

So much working against the packers in this game. One thing about Capers/MM is they are both bad at changing styles. It took forever for Capers to adjust to mobile QB's and when he did, he kept running that same D against pocket passers (collapse the pocket instead of scheming pressure).

We have played a ton of pocket passers this year and scheming pressure has worked great. My big question is: Will Pettine adjust to his opponent and collapse the pocket tonight? Capers Ds played the seahawks very well. I would like to see more a of a dom vanilla D tonight. Stuff the run, collapse the pocket, run the ball effectively on offense.

Still, everything you say above is valid. We are playing a short week, travelling over the mountains to the best home field advantage in football. If we pull this one out then I have to believe MM has righted the ship and will probably save his worthless hide again.

[gbgary]

doesn't look good. on the road, in sea where bad things happen, haven't won there in 10 years, the ref who fucked them in minn is presiding tonight, iffy injuries, natl press speculating about MM's future, Rodgers discontent, inconsistent O, and Packers luck, equal a one point loss.

At least there will be one guy playing who isn't beat up from Sunday's game.

34-17

Breakout game. Fackrell with a sack.

Are we going to Tony Packos after the game?

https://www.tonypacko.com/history.php

[pbmax]

I've got reading material on Pettine. He consulted with Dave Aranda and Greg Schiano during his 2 year non-Continental Divide sabbatical. Which, if I am honest, is about a wash to me. Consulting with Aranda did not help Capers immediately and Greg Schiano thinks it OK to dive into players during a kneel down.

But at least he is trying!

[Bretsky]

GREEN BAY WINS TONIGHT

This is like a playoff game

We shock the world

[red]

its not football day

[red]

why the fuck does je buck keep saying "troy is STILL here"

of course he is, we've been trying to get rid of him for years. facebook pages are devoted to him never doing packer games anymore

[ThunderDan]

Special teams ok on kickoff

[ThunderDan]

Fumble and Packer ball.

[red]

so we have to wear our "color rush" uniforms. why does seattle get to wear their normal shit

fumble on first play.

get a TD a-rod

[ThunderDan]

Good short throw to Graham to start.

[mraynrand]

why the fuck does je buck keep saying "troy is STILL here"

of course he is, we've been trying to get rid of him for years. facebook pages are devoted to him never doing packer games anymore

LOLOLOL. Pace yourself, the night is young.

[red]

i really hope we don't forced the ball to graham all night because he played in seattle

great cut by jones

[ThunderDan]

Great cut back by Jones.

[mraynrand]

Fumble and Packer ball.

5 turnovers is not enough

[red]

can't ask for a better start, great sweep

[ThunderDan]

Touchdown Packers.

New pitch play by O.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Easy peasy

[beveaux1]

Good start!

[mraynrand]

i really hope we don't forced the ball to graham all night because he played in seattle

"He's as familiar with that turf as Larry Bird was of the Parquet floor at Boston Garden"

[MadScientist]

Turnover and a touchdown before you could even blink. That's the way to start fast.

[red]

Turnover and a touchdown before you could even blink. That's the way to start fast.

just gotta hope fat mike doesn't take his foot off the gas again in the 3rd

[ThunderDan]

Lowry, Clark and Daniels on the DL.

[ThunderDan]

Good quick pressure by Clay.

[pbmax]

Call me crazy but this looks like disciplined D AND a turnover.

[ThunderDan]

3 and out. Fackrell has blanket coverage.

[pbmax]

TREVOR!!

[beveaux1]

Real good start!

[pbmax]

Headed to the game. I hate Seachicken fans and Seattle traffic.

Just kick some ass.

metaphorically, just to be safe. :)

[pbmax]

Donald Lee and Fail Mary back to back.

[pbmax]

He was kinda open.

[red]

theres a beautiful throw

[ThunderDan]

That was not in stride Joe. If it was it is a touchdown.

[mraynrand]

We want the ball and we're gonna score

and score

and score

AND SCORE!!!

[pbmax]

That was not in stride Joe. If it was it is a touchdown.

Yeah, that was a be sure it gets close throw.

[ThunderDan]

Good use of short passing game as a run.

[pbmax]

Even the baseball caps are white?

[red]

3rd and short and we run long shit

[red]

show a fucking replay so we can see if guys are actually covered

miss by mase

[ThunderDan]

Seattle D back stands over Jones a jaws. That was called a 15 yarder against the Packers earlier this year.

[pbmax]

Oh good. back to 47 yard FGs and wide left.

[Teamcheez1]

I had a feeling Crosby would miss that one. No excuse for not doing better on 3rd down.

[pbmax]

I hope Pete chokes on his Xylitol.

[red]

keystone cops

[ThunderDan]

Seriously, how was that not a taunt against Seattle? Stood over Jones after the drop and jawed at him. Coach pulled the player away.

[pbmax]

Crap that is embarrassing.

[Teamcheez1]

Absolutely terrible defense. Thanks Crosby.

[ThunderDan]

Fackrell has to force the rub back inside.

[mraynrand]

I hope Pete chokes on his Xylitol.

I've got a non-FDA approved chemical he could take that 'works' better.

[red]

44 just likes to overrun the shit out of everything

[MadScientist]

10 seconds behind the line and then it goes for 30. Ugh.

[pbmax]

FACKRELL TOOK ADVANTAGE!!

[red]

holy shit

josh jones on the field

[ThunderDan]

Breeland with a sure tackle.

[pbmax]

Absolutely terrible defense. Thanks Crosby.

Terrible tackling was the most important factor.

[red]

clay was held

[ThunderDan]

clay was held

He sure was.

[MadScientist]

Defense getting in on the stupid timeout game.

[Teamcheez1]

Carroll goes for it on 4th down, MM kicks the FG.

One man has balls, the other doesn't.

[pbmax]

Gilbert with good force.

[ThunderDan]

Martinez with good pursuit. Go run d on the sweep.

[ThunderDan]

Thanks Russel.

[MadScientist]

Terrible pass by Wilson. Should be tied.

[George Cumby]

Lol

[red]

mccarthy calling a TO on defense

he's always coming up with creative ways to get rid of those pesky things

[ThunderDan]

Carroll goes for it on 4th down, MM kicks the FG.

One man has balls, the other doesn't.

Still ends in FG and if Packers had stopped them on 4th down they get 0 points.

[Cheesehead Craig]

mccarthy calling a TO on defense

he's always coming up with creative ways to get rid of those pesky things

He saved a defensive penalty against the Packers that would have given Seattle a free play. I think it's good use of a time-out.

[beveaux1]

We're back on offense. Are we the worst 3rd and 3 team in football?

[ThunderDan]

Bell got owned on that run.

[red]

do we not have plays for 3rd and short?

[ThunderDan]

ARod looked pretty quick on that run.

[beveaux1]

Tonyan!

[pbmax]

Now THAT was the extended offense.

[gbgary]

nice!

[ThunderDan]

Tonyan for a TD.

[red]

hey troy, maybe they are still running thir long developing routes, thats why they aren't scrambling around yet

hey look that white TE caught a TD

a TE runs a streak down the sideline, nice

[Cheesehead Craig]

And boom goes the dynamite

[ThunderDan]

Man had to type Tonyan 3 times to get past autocorrect, we have used him so little.

[red]

we need to find out who was covering him, cause he just torched someone

be pretty sad if that was a DB

[denverYooper]

Rodgers is now entering the Favre mid-years. Bombs away.

He just throws it away instead of chucking INTs.

[MadScientist]

Who the hell is that? He caught a TD, so he's good.

[George Cumby]

Woot.

[Rutnstrut]

Rodgers is now entering the Favre mid-years. Bombs away.

He just throws it away instead of chucking INTs.



I wouldn't mind a happy medium between the two.

[Rastak]

Perfect pass on that TD.

[ThunderDan]

Good penetration by Clark and Daniels.

[red]

we need to find out who was covering him, cause he just torched someone

be pretty sad if that was a DB

#30

so it was a db

good amount of pack fans there

[mraynrand]

By the end of this game I want Mt. Adams in there as a goal line FB or a receiver eligible. Open the playbook, Stubbers.

[red]

breeland using his head

[KYPack]

Tonyan the Barbarian.

[ThunderDan]

Breeland with great coverage. Right off his helmet.

[MadScientist]

Breeland with another header.

[gbgary]

Mo!

[ThunderDan]

Good hustle Morrison, saves a first down.

[Cheesehead Craig]

That was a really good return

[mraynrand]

#30

so it was a db

good amount of pack fans there

Happy Birthday, McDougald, you just just got Buuuuurned.

[ThunderDan]

Good run on 2nd down.

[pbmax]

Rodgers is now entering the Favre mid-years. Bombs away.

He just throws it away instead of chucking INTs.

I am seriously getting that vibe from him this year.

[ThunderDan]

ARod had a guy open outside for 5 yards. Goes for 20 down the middle.

[gbgary]

open guys all over the place and then they do that.

[red]

how is the WR suppose to know that he's suppose to stop. he's the one running full speed

[beveaux1]

He's having a lot of problems with the young kids being where he wants them.

[ThunderDan]

Come on D. Need a better run fit than that.

[pbmax]

Who is the Seattle defender who grabbed Davis OOB and then popped the receiver for no reason on the overthrow?

Because I want to beat the Xmas rush to dislike him.

[red]

ARod had a guy open outside for 5 yards. Goes for 20 down the middle.

yeah, that crap is really getting old

[red]

He's having a lot of problems with the young kids being where he wants them.

thats because they are probably where they are suppose to be

[mraynrand]

ARod had a guy open outside for 5 yards. Goes for 20 down the middle.

Keep it simple, they told me

[pbmax]

how is the WR suppose to know that he's suppose to stop. he's the one running full speed

I think he wanted him to break deep. There was a safety but he might have been out of position.

[red]

Who is the Seattle defender who grabbed Davis OOB and then popped the receiver for no reason on the overthrow?

Because I want to beat the Xmas rush to dislike him.

don't know because they refuse to show replays

just on offsides and missed kicks

[ThunderDan]

Wow, can’t have better coverage than that.

[red]

great catch and then lost yards being fancy

[red]

Wow, can’t have better coverage than that.

i think one of the lbers broke late towards wilson or else we might have had even better coverage

[ThunderDan]

Darn it. Had him for no gain and got the first on second effort.

[pbmax]

Clark just destroyed the center but they got the first anyway.

Playing nickel has its costs.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Fack attack

[red]

fuck bostick

he should have put a gun in his mouth that night

DO WHAT YOU'RE FUCKING TOLD ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[George Cumby]

Do the refs know what offensive holding is?

[Cheesehead Craig]

This is an awful tackling exhibition by the D

[KYPack]

Pettine is playing a lot of cover and spy with the backers

[Harlan Huckleby]

Penny looks HOF

[mraynrand]

fuck bostick

he should have put a gun in his mouth that night

DO WHAT YOU'RE FUCKING TOLD ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

never forget. never forgive

[ThunderDan]

Nice to have DBs next to WR when they make catches this year.

Challenge that.

[red]

so the ball came out while he's going to the ground out of bounds, but its still a catch

still no clue what a catch is

[red]

nice play by jones

[mraynrand]

football move!

[pbmax]

Have to play base versus their O

[Cheesehead Craig]

Well, this is a TD drive for Seattle

[ThunderDan]

Darn it. He didn’t grab the face mask.

[denverYooper]

He's having a lot of problems with the young kids being where he wants them.

It is possible that if MVS and ESB get a handle on the Rodgers/M3 extended offense that they'll have a nice 2 year run.

[Rastak]

Darn it. He didn’t grab the face mask.


LOL.....you serious?

[red]

shut the fuck up pete

[ThunderDan]

Seriously, we don’t need a shot of MMs head from 6 inches away.

[KYPack]

double Baldwin in the slot.

[mraynrand]

Have to play base versus their O

gotta have at least 3 down linemen

[red]

It is possible that if MVS and ESB get a handle on the Rodgers/M3 extended offense that they'll have a nice 2 year run.

i was just thinking that about aaron jones

he's a free agent after next year. no way we pay him the big bucks he's probably going to be looking for

so enjoy him while you can

[ThunderDan]

LOL.....you serious?


Yes, he got the visor if you look at the super slow mo replay. Not sure if dragging across the visor is 15 or not.

[red]

Seriously, we don’t need a shot of MMs head from 6 inches away.

just imagine what that looks like on those new 80 inch ultra HD tvs

[ThunderDan]

i was just thinking that about aaron jones

he's a free agent after next year. no way we pay him the big bucks he's probably going to be looking for

so enjoy him while you can
Wtf? He is signed through 2020.

[denverYooper]

Seriously, we don’t need a shot of MMs head from 6 inches away.


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

[mraynrand]

just imagine what that looks like on those new 80 inch ultra HD tvs

I refuse

[red]

can't do much there, good throw good catch

[Rastak]

Team celebrations being legal are moronic........sorry.....adds nothing.

[Harlan Huckleby]

That's a lot of red zone shots to give Russell wilson

[gbgary]

that was too easy. Jackson has to do better.

[red]

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

LOL

i love those scenes

BOY PAPER NOW!!!!

[ThunderDan]

Come on Jackson. Set up perfectly to run with that move and he hesitated. Cost us the TD.

[esoxx]

Seriously, we don’t need a shot of MMs head from 6 inches away.

Truth

[KYPack]

The whole reason for all the WR's was to get Baldwin singled up.

It worked.

[Teamcheez1]

Can Rodgers answer without having to throw bombs down the field?

[gbgary]

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

one of my favorite all-time movies.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Dammit. Stupid penalty

[MadScientist]

Fucking flag.

[red]

holy shit, a return without a flag

wait, nevermind

when was the last time we had a decent return that didn't get called back?

[denverYooper]

Looks like Toomer's getting cut.

[esoxx]

It's not a Toomer!!!

[beveaux1]

Can Rodgers answer without having to throw bombs down the field?

Much easier to hit a rookie on a bomb than for them to be in the right place every play for 12 plays.

[Teamcheez1]

More special teams blunders.

[red]

well thats a horse shit call

[mraynrand]

holy shit, a return without a flag

wait, nevermind

when was the last time we had a decent return that didn't get called back?

Davis, Cleveland, 2017

[Rastak]

Holds should only be called when they impact the play....same on the OL, where they are never called.

[ThunderDan]

That was a light hold on the kickoff.

[red]

guy just kneed aaron jones in the back of the head

but thats not a flag

[KYPack]

Jones is a real hip thruster.

Solid runner.

[mraynrand]

It's not a Toomer!!!

FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE

[mraynrand]

That was a light hold on the kickoff.

12th man

[red]

Holds should only be called when they impact the play....same on the OL, where they are never called.

agreed

especially with a penalty that happens on every play and only gets called when the refs feel like it

well that was a terrible play call

[Teamcheez1]

That's on Rodgers. Guy can't complete a pass on 3rd and short all game.

This offense has no ability for a sustained drive.

[beveaux1]

That's on Rodgers. Guy can't complete a pass on 3rd and short all game.

Line didn't give him a chance.

[yetisnowman]

That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. That being said, our offense is infuriating. Just limp dick, slow, unimaginative slop.

[red]

Can Rodgers answer without having to throw bombs down the field?

no

[gbgary]

Pettine better do his usual halftime magic with the defense.

[Cheesehead Craig]

What a moronic penalty

[esoxx]

Team celebrations being legal are moronic........sorry.....adds nothing.

Truth

[red]

yup, begin collapse

yeah, raven greene just threw himself at the guy instead of trying to defend

[ThunderDan]

If Greene doesn’t panic that is incomplete and not a penalty.

[Teamcheez1]

The keystone cops on defense.

[mraynrand]

3rd and short is a gimme for every decent offensive team.

1 - Rodgers won't throw to the open shoulder
2- the pass pro is not good enough

[denverYooper]

Wilson underthrowing that was a blessing for the hags.

[red]

That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. That being said, our offense is infuriating. Just limp dick, slow, unimaginative slop.

well we have run out of scripted plays that fat mike was able to work on for a few days now

after that, we've really fucked

[denverYooper]

Time to double up.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Penalties just killing us

[MadScientist]

So much for the good start.

[Teamcheez1]

A Seattle. turnover and a long bomb account for our points.

Our offense hasn't done shit all game. The defense can't be on the field all game.

[ThunderDan]

Ok O, we need a drive to close out the half and get points. Can’t have a 3 and out.

[beveaux1]

We need to throw some bombs.

[Gotarace]

Jesus Christ...Solid Start turns to Solid Shit

[ThunderDan]

Yeah ARod took the check down for 15.

[Rastak]

Aaron Jones does look like a great back.

[Teamcheez1]

I can't believe AR through a pass under 5 yards.

[red]

just keep feeding him the ball

[mraynrand]

I can't believe AR through a pass under 5 yards.

I thought Gute wold have to trade all the receivers to force him to do that.

[Harlan Huckleby]

raven greene - yikes!

[Rutnstrut]

Aaron Jones does look like a great back.

Too bad it has taken stubby this long to realize that.

[ThunderDan]

Ok, good start to the drive. Now punch it in.

[beveaux1]

Tell me again why we didn't start Jones until after the bye?

[Rutnstrut]

Tell me again why we didn't start Jones until after the bye?




STUBBY!!!!

[red]

those tide ads are already annoying

[ThunderDan]

Jones has 7 rushes and 2 receptions on 22 plays. That is over 40% of the offensive plays. Glad MM doesn’t get him the bell rout8ne goes on and on.

[red]

too bad that guy cant catch passes

[Gotarace]

Aaron Jones is the Real Deal

[Rastak]

Looks like Graham hurts his hand on illegal hands to the face....lol.....sorry Jimmy...

Again, super play play by Jones....seems like a great player.

[gbgary]

nice!

[MadScientist]

So what was the reason Jones wasn't used on passing downs early in the season?

[mraynrand]

raven greene - yikes!

he'd be starting on at least one other NFL team

[Rutnstrut]

Jones has 7 rushes and 2 receptions on 22 plays. That is over 40% of the offensive plays. Glad MM doesn’t get him the bell rout8ne goes on and on.



It took losing a lot this season and everyone and their brother screaming about why a great player like Jones wasn't getting played. But yeah, stubby is awesome.

[denverYooper]

Cignetti looks like your uncle, the chevy salesman.

Hey Aaron, that was a bad route that guy shoulda sat down back there or kept going, whaddaya think?
Hey how's about we get you in a '15 Impala, original owner took real good care of it, oil changes every 3 thousand miles on. the. dot. Look real good on you, you know? Looking for something that rides a little higher? Well now how about this '07 Canyonero... had a bit of a mixup with PETA back 10 years ago so they had to discontinue the model but it smells like a steak and seats 35.

[ThunderDan]

Ok, MM don’t use time outs. Let Seattle run out the half. We got the ball to start the 3rd

[KYPack]

those tide ads are already annoying

X's a million.

[beveaux1]

Fackrell!

[pbmax]

Called it. FACKRELL SACK!!

[Gotarace]

Frack Attack

[ThunderDan]

Fackrell with another sack.

[red]

fucking fackerell

[George Cumby]

Holy Fackrell!

[gbgary]

rushed three and got a sack.

[ThunderDan]

Illegal forward pass.

[gbgary]

illegal forward pass

[Rastak]

That was some major stupid..

[red]

the clock was at 12

12-10 is 2

not 10 you fucking moron

[pbmax]

It is possible that if MVS and ESB get a handle on the Rodgers/M3 extended offense that they'll have a nice 2 year run.

I hope, probably against reason, that Rodgers just runs the offense for awhile.

[ThunderDan]

No hail or fail Mary here.

[KYPack]

I hope Wilson throws a hail mary and we return it for a TD

[Bretsky]

Called it. FACKRELL SACK!!

the 6 second sacker :)

[gbgary]

they're calling of fail Mary

[Teamcheez1]

Crosby needs to use grecian formula.

[ThunderDan]

Good job D. Got off the field with no points on the drive.
