The Official Packers Lions Game Day Thread

[pittstang5]

Pathetic

[esoxx]

Just awful

[beveaux1]

Bad drive.

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers has 6 straight incompletions.

[ThunderDan]

Why, why, why ,why?

Fucking stupid series.

[red]

absolutely terrible fucking series

that was some horrid play calling and execution

[pbmax]

That was a poor throw or a bad route extender.

[yetisnowman]

When is the last time Aaron has a series without a shit throw?

[Zool]

$30mil. Tex is going to have a tough time defending this fiasco.

[beveaux1]

3 straight plays with no RB. That's on MLF. No threat of run.

[pbmax]

Who is HRod barking at now?

MVS bumped into someone and stopped his route.

[MadtownPacker]

I remember early in the season getting bashed for complaining about Rodgers throwing deep.

[Teamcheez1]

Give up a FG on this drive and the game may be out of reach.

[pbmax]

$30mil. Tex is going to have a tough time defending this fiasco.

You underestimate him.

[beveaux1]

If defense doesn't stop them cold, it's turn out the lights.

[pbmax]

I remember early in the season getting bashed for complaining about Rodgers throwing deep.

No one disagreed that it would be nice to complete some.

[red]

rodgers is 20-44 on the day

45%

thats sub randy wright levels

[pittstang5]

Defense...WE NEED A TURNOVER!!! NOW!!!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

King with a good stop in the run game.

[Rutnstrut]

When is the last time Aaron has a series without a shit throw?

2016.

[Strange Brew]

3 straight plays with no RB. That's on MLF. No threat of run.

Somebody hit Matt LaFleur with the stupid stick before the game.

[pbmax]

Windows 10 graphics are killing me.

[pittstang5]

game over

[beveaux1]

FG range.

[red]

I remember early in the season getting bashed for complaining about Rodgers throwing deep.

not by anyone sane

maybe by people drooling on themselves and getting their shit wiped off them by nurses in an old folks home somewhere in texas

[ThunderDan]

There is out first sack. Why didn’t Det run there?

[beveaux1]

Martinez is a good blitzer.

[Teamcheez1]

That's what should have happened the last play. You pressure a 3rd string QB.

[pbmax]

Nice.

But why was he looking to go OOB?

[beveaux1]

Two plays by Martinez.

[red]

HUGE PLAY

why wasn't there a flag for zadarious getting shoved in the back though?

[esoxx]

Blough you Blow!

[pbmax]

Was almost intercepted twice.

[ThunderDan]

Thank you Blake.

Why is Det not running here? Grind out another 15 yards and you get a FG and the win.

[esoxx]

Amendola has been a dick the whole game.

[red]

whoa and 15 yard penalty

come on a-rod, do something

[yetisnowman]

Need a quick TD.

[pbmax]

Amendola a jackass.

[pittstang5]

LET'S GO OFFENSE!!!!

[Bossman641]

Martinez looked sooo slow

[red]

yeah, packers under rodgers always seem to just forget about the run for some reason

no matter who the coach is

hmmmmmm

[pbmax]

Jones is great in the hole.

[red]

Martinez looked sooo slow

like hawk at the end slow

[pittstang5]

Fuck me...can't get 1 fuckin yard. 1 Fuckin Yard!!!!!!

[pbmax]

Bach is getting killed.

[beveaux1]

Bad run call.

[Teamcheez1]

The playcalling continues to mystify me.

[red]

lafleur is no play calling guru, we can put a nail in that debate right now

[ThunderDan]

Thank you. Thought that was going to Jones and short of the first down.

[beveaux1]

Good play call.

[pbmax]

Getting closer??

[pittstang5]

now we throw deep again. UGH!!!!!

[beveaux1]

Pass was on the money.

[red]

stick to what is working

long shit isn't working

[Gotarace]

Aaron just can't resist long throws

[red]

Pass was on the money.

little long

[pittstang5]

OMG!!!!!

SO frustrating!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

Just grow it away out of bounds.

[Gotarace]

Aaron can't scramble all day?

[beveaux1]

Aaron just can't resist long throws

He should have caught it.

[pbmax]

Throw it DEEP!!!

[ThunderDan]

Lazard for the TD!!!

[pittstang5]

Wow!!!!

But the way this game is going, Defense will give it up.

[beveaux1]

Lazard!! Perfect throw.

[Gotarace]

Again with the homerun ball...sorry that is bullshit

[red]

that got to come up with something where they see the blitz coming and have something quick they can throw

NICE TD

lazard went way up to grab that one

that was not a great throw

[Rastak]

Looks like the Bears beat the Viking scrubs in the last few seconds.

[pbmax]

That is how you go get the ball.

[red]

thats a TD

he kept the ball and the knee stayed up till the ball was over

[pittstang5]

IT's a fuckin TD! Move on

[ThunderDan]

Mr. Davis don’t use elf on the shelf every again in an NFL broadcast booth.

[Fosco33]

What’s the pt of review

[red]

That is how you go get the ball.

thats what graham should be doing on every single throw. 6'7 and former basketball player

[Rutnstrut]

Yup not the best throw on that. Lazard made Rodgers look good there.

[MadtownPacker]

Lazard made that happen. Hell of a catch!

[pbmax]

Looks like the Bears beat the Viking scrubs in the last few seconds.

Patriots lost.

[beveaux1]

Need the defense again.

[red]

shut up charles

he didn't have to throw it that high

he could have led him, the defender was beat and didn't even try to jump

[ThunderDan]

Patriots lost.

They are gong to the Super Bowl.

[red]

COME ON D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pbmax]

Zaius missed the tackle.

[red]

not good

[ThunderDan]

Not sure why the last Det drive didn’t look like this.

[Bossman641]

Middle run D looking awful

[pbmax]

Sullivan just being competent

[ThunderDan]

Gary let’s the stunt for Dr Z to get pressure.

[pbmax]

I’m buying either an Ervin or Sullivan jersey.

[beveaux1]

Good return.

[red]

good stop

good return

ok, we just need 3, not a one play TD

[Gotarace]

Ervin looks good returning punts

[pbmax]

Gary let’s the stunt for Dr Z to get pressure.

Baconator!

[Rastak]

Browns lost to the Bengals? Adios Kitchens.....

[ThunderDan]

FG looks even dumber now.

Looks better 7 minutes later.

[pbmax]

Bad call. Needed a cutback.

[Teamcheez1]

The playcalling continues to mystify me.

The playcalling continues to mystify me.

[pbmax]

Looks better 7 minutes later.

Rather have the lead.

[ThunderDan]

Slant to Lazard.

[beveaux1]

Good call. Good play.

[pbmax]

Pulling on his leg for tackle.

[ThunderDan]

Landed on the ball. He will be back.

[Bossman641]

Patriots losing at home to the Dolphins makes my day.

[yetisnowman]

Pack sure love stopping the clock for no reason.

[pbmax]

Horrible call.

[Gotarace]

Underthrown

[red]

OMG

[Teamcheez1]

Another stupid play by Rodgers.

[beveaux1]

Kumerow with the push.

[ThunderDan]

Kumerow just need to keep running didn’t need the push to get the ball.

[Fosco33]

That was as ticky tack as they come for a no catch. If anything pickup the flag. Bs

[Rastak]

Horrible call.


I wouldn't have called anything on that.

[yetisnowman]

Patricia will challenge that i think. Time to pray.
Aaron with another garbage deep ball.

[beveaux1]

2nd and 20.

[pbmax]

That was as ticky tack as they come for a no catch. If anything pickup the flag. Bs

Wasn’t even a push off. Was getting rid of hand from grabbing him.

[Teamcheez1]

2nd and 20.

Run twice.

[red]

Another stupid play by Rodgers.

yup, tried to win the game on one play

[beveaux1]

Is Lazard back?

[Strange Brew]

For all you Kumerow lovers, remember preseason and regular season are totally different universes. He just flat out sucks!

[pbmax]

Get rid of him. I mean MVS.

[Gotarace]

ya lets not get in 3 and manageable

[ThunderDan]

Why, why, why?

Stop it. Just fucking stop it.

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers is a complete idiot.

[red]

QUIT THROWING DEEP

i want to fucking cry at all this shit

[Fosco33]

��

[pbmax]

They just don’t deserve this game.

[Rastak]

Picked and not a bad play.

[Gotarace]

Another Completely Crap Throw

[beveaux1]

Underthrown and picked.

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers is a complete idiot.

I double down on this statement.

[red]

and now he underthrows one by a mile

[Rastak]

The eye roll was pretty epic.

[Bossman641]

I'd love to see the stats on throws 20+ yards downfield.

[Zool]

I'd love to see the stats on throws 20+ yards downfield.

0/all of them

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Underthrown and picked.

Scott woulda pooped the punt anyway. Pick was as good as punt.

[ThunderDan]

Packers need to watch the clock if Det gets down the field.

[beveaux1]

Need a stop, D.

[Zool]

I hope the fucking Lions win. Rodgers needs a reality check.

[red]

I'd love to see the stats on throws 20+ yards downfield.

1 or 2 for about 30

[pbmax]

What were the Lions thinking with that drive?

[beveaux1]

Good job, D.

[Gotarace]

Sullivan is a Stud

[Rastak]

Not the best series from the Lions.

[red]

run one back ervin

watch the fucking fake

[ThunderDan]

Thank god we are playing a 3-11-1 team. Against a playoff team we are blown out of this game.

[MadtownPacker]

Lions throwing the game for a higher pick.

[beveaux1]

What were the Lions thinking with that drive?

Good question.

[Rutnstrut]

I hope the fucking Lions win. Rodgers needs a reality check.


It won't matter. He will remain a legend in his own mind.

[Teamcheez1]

To win this game, we need Rodgers to make several good 30-50 yard throws. Forget trying to work your way down the field, that would make too much sense.

[esoxx]

C'mon Hollywood, you can still be the hero after all!

[Rastak]

To be honest, he was in the air when he slid, kinda lame.

[red]

Not the best series from the Lions.

well, both teams are pretty even in suckage today

but one is 12-3, and the other is 3-11-1

dumb penalty

[pbmax]

Dumb to lead with shoulder pad.

[Zool]

Can’t wait to watch more incomplete passes 40 yards down field.

They scored 2 TDs with short-middle passes. Then the switch back. We’re currently in 2006 Favre territory. He does whatever he wants.

[ThunderDan]

I know that is a 15 yard penalty but I still don’t like it on a late slide.

[Gotarace]

Rodgers best Play of the Game...

[beveaux1]

We'll take it.

[red]

you cn't hit a QB when he goes feet first, its a pretty clear cut foul

god this guy is an idiot

[pbmax]

Might be his beat catch of year.

[Guiness]

Nice play by d. How many others yelled "Rodgers you moron" when he threw that long ball? 2w2

[Teamcheez1]

Announcers are dumb. It doesn't have to be a blow to the head to get a call on a sliding QB.

[beveaux1]

Scantling with an amazing catch.

[pbmax]

Broken play offense.

[Gotarace]

Jones!!!!!

[Zool]

Vaginal Scaffolding caught one! Holy shit.

[ThunderDan]

Aaron Jones saves our bacon with that catch and run.

[pbmax]

Lucas Patrick literally fell down when Jones stopped to catch the ball.

[Rastak]

Looks like you guys will squeeze it out.

[red]

I know that is a 15 yard penalty but I still don’t like it on a late slide.

tough for the defender to react any different

i hate the ones they call on the sideline when they hit a guy as he's going out. so many times we've seen guys like rodgers taking advantage of a guy letting up to get another couple of yards

huge play by jones, great running

[red]

mase still has to make the kick guys

[Rastak]

Crosby never ever misses.....this ain't Blair Walsh.....you guys can't lose.

[pbmax]

Tough for defender but helps if you don’t lead with head or shoulder. Just fall on him.

[Gotarace]

Looks like you guys will squeeze it out.
Good we won't have to Play you Guys next Week

[red]

just an XP

[Rastak]

just an XP


Impossible to miss.

[Rutnstrut]

Crosby never ever misses.....this ain't Blair Walsh.....you guys can't lose.

Jinx.

[red]

Good we won't have to Play you Guys next Week

seconded

[Zool]

Crosby never ever misses.....this ain't Blair Walsh.....you guys can't lose.

Hey now jinxy jinxerson.

[red]

Impossible to miss.

he missed an XP last week

[Rastak]

Hey now jinxy jinxerson.


I can't get anything past you guys.

[Gotarace]

Piss Poor...try to get Closer

[esoxx]

Crosby never ever misses.....this ain't Blair Walsh.....you guys can't lose.

He missed about 5 kicks in this very dome just last year.

[Rastak]

He damn near did miss it.

[red]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[pbmax]

Bad snap hold was but off and dinked it off upright I think!

[ThunderDan]

Great win on a shitty effort.

[esoxx]

Was never sweating this one at all.

[beveaux1]

Might be the worst 13-3 team ever, but they could be the #1 seed.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I hope the fucking Lions win. Rodgers needs a reality check.

Go root for Bears!

[Rastak]

Helluva game, playoffs next week although you guys will be drinking beer by the pool.

[Gotarace]

That Felt like Humping your Cousin...It just Ain't Right.

[red]

He damn near did miss it.

yeah

too close for comfort

but i think it looked worse then it was, i think it hit the net right behind the post, gave it some weird movement

[MadtownPacker]

Hey now jinxy jinxerson.Like he was praying huh!!

[JohnMexico]

This is the most horseshit 13 and 3 team in Packers history, but the postseason might go through Lambeau

[HarveyWallbangers]

Never a doubt bitches! :)

[Rastak]

Like he was praying huh!!


Not sure Mad, part of me would rather play indoors against the Saints with all the guys healthy. Outside against GB seems to play into your hands. Downside is the Saints are probably the best team in the NFC.

[red]

Might be the worst 13-3 team ever, but they could be the #1 seed.

we're not 13-3 good, thats for sure

but we just need to somehow win 3 more ugly games

[SMBASS]

I have no idea if this is the absolute worst 13-3 team ever but they're definitely in the same zip code.

[red]

really?

the game of the week is a 3-12 team vs a 7-8 team?

football this year sucks

[Gotarace]

La Flower should start shoving his foot up the asses right now...That was Hideous

[The Shadow]

Character builder. Ugly is in the eye of the beholder.

[beveaux1]

La Flower should start shoving his foot up the asses right now...That was Hideous

That's pretty much been our season.

[pbmax]

Can’t wait to watch more incomplete passes 40 yards down field.

They scored 2 TDs with short-middle passes. Then the switch back. We’re currently in 2006 Favre territory. He does whatever he wants.

Mr. Negative. :D

Fucking Rodgers with his snarky attitude, eye rolls, bitchin' at his receivers, and smart ass grins. One of his teammates needs to punch him in the mouth for being such a pretentious asshole. Prick possesses no humility at all for someone who's been playing like dog shit for a long time.

Allen Lazard getting it done again. Really, really like this kid's moxie and effort.

[Zool]

Mr. Negative. :D

Stunned

[pittstang5]

Unbelievable game

[Teamcheez1]

I would love to see a coach or player walk up to AR and bitch at him on the sidelines when he plays stupidly.

[George Cumby]

A win is a win is a win.

Especially when it might net you HFA.

[George Cumby]

Obligatory game day pessimistic post: this will come down to a winning field goal attempt on one side or the other.

You like that?!

[wist43]

Some horrific playcalling, clock management, and quarterbacking.

Can't compete with the big boys doing shit like that.

Rodgers is nothing more than a game manager now. He needs to realize he no longer has the skills he had 10 years ago, and adjust accordingly. Instead he just heaves nonsense balls all over the place. It's hard to watch.

[SMBASS]

I would love to see a coach or player walk up to AR and bitch at him on the sidelines when he plays stupidly.

I never liked Rodger's schtick even when he could back it up. I've especially grown tired of it now that he can't. Confidence is one thing...his act is something else.

[wist43]

A win is a win is a win.

Especially when it might net you HFA.

Expect we'll get New Orleans in the 2nd round... they'll blow us out. Rodgers can't compete on that stage.

[hoosier]

Interesting how the course of the game brings out a cohort of posters you never ever hear from when things are going well.

[George Cumby]

Expect we'll get New Orleans in the 2nd round... they'll blow us out. Rodgers can't compete on that stage.

Maybe. A month ago, I would have wholeheartedly agreed.

Now? IDK.

[Teamcheez1]

Expect we'll get New Orleans in the 2nd round... they'll blow us out. Rodgers can't compete on that stage.

New Orleans is a completely different team outside the confines of their cozy little dome.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Let's assume Philadelphia wins or Dallas loses (if not, just substitute Dalas).

SF win:

1 San Francisco
2 Green Bay
3 New Orleans
4 Philadelphia
5 Seattle
6 Minnesota

If NO wins, we play them in round 2.
If Minnesota wins, we play the winner of Philadelphia/Seattle.

SEA win:

1 Green Bay
2 New Orleans
3 Seattle
4 Philadelphia
5 San Francisco
6 Minnesota

If Seatte wins, we play the winner of Philadelphia/San Francisco (probably San Francisco).
If Minnesota wins, we play Minnesota.

Would almost want Minnesota to win in either scenario. That would be hard to root for though. Probably wouldn't root for them in the second scenario. I'd rather root for the Eagles to win. :)

[HarveyWallbangers]

What a fun and unexpected season! Defense played lights out in the second half. Offense did enough. Happy for Crosby.

[George Cumby]

What a fun and unexpected season! Defense played lights out in the second half. Offense did enough. Happy for Crosby.

This.

[Joemailman]

So I was on the road and didn't hear anything after Crosby missed the field goal in the 3rd quarter with the score 14-3. How'd they come back?

[Freak Out]

1st round bye and a home game. So awesome. Who cares if it was an ugly win. after the emotional win last week its not a surprise.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

So I was on the road and didn't hear anything after Crosby missed the field goal in the 3rd quarter with the score 14-3. How'd they come back?

Great. Arm. Of. Butte.

[gbgary]

rodgers was horrible. the run D, that's been good of late, was bad. only when they went small ball did they get anything done. passing D, aaron jones, and crosby, won the day. they look like an 8-8 team but only when you see the standings can you believe they're 13-3. it's a complete mystery.

[gbgary]

Great. Arm. Of. Butte.

lol

[pbmax]

So I was on the road and didn't hear anything after Crosby missed the field goal in the 3rd quarter with the score 14-3. How'd they come back?

Dominated 3rd quarter even though they just scored 7. Lions possessed the ball for 3:35 in the 3rd.

Second half possessions were 38 yards, 95, 51, 0(!), 40, 4 (INT drive) and 68. Were in scoring range 5 times and without penalties, might have been six.

First half drives were 2, 17, 9, 17,76.

13 run plays, 18 passes in first half. 27 rushes in second half, 38 passes. So it wasn't balance, but they didn't give up. In fact, ran some two TE in second half.

Short passing game finally started to work basically. And the two longer balls that connected went for TDs. Pass pro was huge. Patrick and Veldheer should have gotten game balls.

Best part of two late scoring drives was rollouts (design maybe but one at least was pressure). Rodgers finally threw some darts when he was moving.

[Joemailman]

It's not really such a mystery. They are #4 in turnover differential. 9 of the top 10 teams in turnover differential will be in the playoffs.

I believe they are also in the top 10 in red zone effiiency, both offensively and defensively. That is how you win close games.

[woodbuck27]

It was shakey but a super victory.

Go Packers !

[Fritz]

Obligatory game day pessimistic post: this will come down to a winning field goal attempt on one side or the other.



Thread bump.

Fritz's great powers of prognostication shine forth again!

[Vincenzo]

Thread bump.

Fritz's great powers of prognostication shine forth again!
Lol, he should start gambling cuz that was a tough prediction to make.

[Fritz]

I think PB called the actual score.

[pbmax]

I think PB called the actual score.

I had them scoring a TD on one of those two FG drives.
