The Official 2020 WK 3 Packers-Saints GameDay Thread

[Anti-Polar Bear]

What is up, Pack fans! Sorry for the late post. Game’s at night and I thought y’all were sleeping in. At 7 upon punching out at the burger joint, I saw only Prof Rand lurking here - guess the old man had to get up for Church. Instead of composing this thread via an obsolete iPhone 6 - can’t afford the current, hip iPhone - I head over to the gym to do cardio and stare at hot chicks that I can’t have. If only I had a nice paying job, chicks would be all over me.

Hip hop safety Taylor Rapp had 4 tackles, all solos, against the Balding Eagles in week 2.

Taysom Hill was the one who got away, eh? Todd and Fat Mike stubbornly and incompetently alienated Hill b/c they thought Brett “The Hun” Hundley was the best Packer backup QB since Vince Young. In the city of “pirates, drunks and whores,” Hill has morphed into the dynamic player God would’ve made Tim Tebow had She not had another purpose for Tebow.

Goddamn, time flies by at the speed of light. A hundred millions years from now, light from 2005 earth will reach a distant planet in some distant galaxy. The ETs on said planet will see a 26 year old Drew Brees in the yellow and teal of the San Diego Chargers; they will witness Todd give birth to the Great Arm of Butte; and they will spot me, a young, handsome, robust, institutionalized, lad whose future appeared brighter than burger-flipping enslavement.

Packers 72, Aints 0

Power to the Packers!

[George Cumby]

Dude on the left: forced grin, teeth clenched, thinking, "WTF are you on about?"

Second from right: gaze locked straight ahead, corners of mouth tucked down in disapproval, thinking "The shit they pay us to say makes me hate myself, but my bonus last year helped pay for my condo on Kona. Fukkit."

Dude on right: Eyes closed, trying to not see the bullshit in front of him, gaping mouth indicating he's struck speechless by the writer's lack of imagination, thinking "How many more weeks in this season?"

Darrius Shepherd

two are household names. not bad

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Good start, D!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fucking Center at RT, eh?

[pittstang5]

cmon Rogers...we all saw it coming. throw it away!!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

It was a pretty quick sack

[Joemailman]

Money Crosby.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Tonyan has impressed me this year.
But i'm impressionable.

[Teamcheez1]

That’s on Rodgers

[Anti-Polar Bear]

It was a pretty quick sack

Put the fucking center back at LG! Chemistry is real and fucking center has chemistry with Bak.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fresno Fraud can’t be counted on to play 16+ games in a season.

[GB-Brandon]

Can see offense isn’t nearly explosive in first drive. Good job getting 3!

Just get a “W” tonight!!

[pittstang5]

Damn...almost!!!

[pittstang5]

Ah Ha...there's the run defense we know

[GB-Brandon]

And our run D rears it’s ugly head!!!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fucking run d.

[Teamcheez1]

Run defense is terrible

[GB-Brandon]

“Soft”

[pittstang5]

too easy D...too easy

[Gotarace]

All z smith wants to do is Rush...never set a Edge

[Anti-Polar Bear]

51 on Kamala is a mismatch, Petinne!!!!

[beveaux1]

All z smith wants to do is Rush...never set a Edge

So true.

[Joemailman]

Amos has not been very good this year.

[beveaux1]

Amos has not been very good this year.

He's average. Savage less than average.

[GB-Brandon]

This is why we need more weapons on offense. Gotta score! Can’t count on this defense.

[GB-Brandon]

He's average. Savage less than average.

Yep, Amos is a JAG

[GB-Brandon]

They are not gonna let Jones beat them

[Harlan Huckleby]

Best Green Bay running back tandem since....... wayback

[pittstang5]

hmmm..no horse collar that i saw

[GB-Brandon]

Lazard isn’t explosive enough to run that pitch play against real defenses.

[GB-Brandon]

Darius Shepard. What a joke!!!

[Teamcheez1]

Offense tries to get too cute

[pittstang5]

3rd and 12 - Saints are going to bring the heat. get it out fast, take the FG try

[pittstang5]

3rd and 12 - Saints are going to bring the heat. get it out fast, take the FG try

Or run for the 1st...lol

[Harlan Huckleby]

nice scamper by the skinny guy

[Harlan Huckleby]

missed cut inside

[Anti-Polar Bear]

hmmm..no horse collar that i saw

Oscar worthy acting by Williams

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Lazard isn’t explosive enough to run that pitch play against real defenses.

Janis used to take that to da house all the time.

[GB-Brandon]

Trade for a receiver please!!!!!

We’re making it way harder then it needs to be!!!!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

How old is Janis?
Fuck bring him back!

[GB-Brandon]

This offense looks just like the Rams offense and they have Woods and Cooper Kupp. We have nobody like that!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Nobody Open!!!!!

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers not sharp tonight

[GB-Brandon]

Who looks like the Jackass Now?

[beveaux1]

Rodgers not sharp tonight

Receivers not getting open. First pass defense we've faced all year.

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers not sharp tonight

You mean nobody can get open tonight against better competition.

[Joemailman]

Keke sighting!

[jklowan]

nice play by keke

[Fosco33]

One of those fumbles will bounce our way

[Fosco33]

How old is Janis?
Fuck bring him back!

I think he’s a car dealer now

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Packers could use DK Metcalf right now.

[Fosco33]

I would’ve been ok going for it on 4th and 5. Kinda 50/50 play vs points.

[Joemailman]

I think he’s a car dealer now

Tire dealer.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I think he’s a car dealer now

OIC

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Tire dealer.

Damn capitalists!

[Harlan Huckleby]

circus catch

[Fosco33]

Nice routes and crisp tosses. Offense 3 for 3 in scoring drives. Good stuff

[Joemailman]

Who says we don't have any wide receivers?

[Harlan Huckleby]

Davante who?

[GB-Brandon]

Nice pitch and catch to Lazard. Nobody does it like AR12.

[GB-Brandon]

Who says we don't have any wide receivers?

That was Nice.

[Harlan Huckleby]

That long ball to Lazard would have been easy catch if he hadn't stumbled. But I still thought it was pretty incredible for him to regain his balance and get to the ball.

[GB-Brandon]

Our receivers are good. I just think we could add something to make it Elite!!

[jklowan]

lazzard stepping up

[smuggler]

The touch on the pass to Lazard was incredible. The baby-on-the-bough catch was also nice.

[smuggler]

It's not pass interference, Terry McCauley. IT'S JUST HOLDING.

[Teamcheez1]

Pathetic defense

[GB-Brandon]

Amos. Lol

[pittstang5]

ugh!!!! 3rd and 15 and gave up a huge chunk

[Harlan Huckleby]

track meet

[Anti-Polar Bear]

ugh!!!! 3rd and 15 and gave up a huge chunk

Gotta contain Kamala.

[pittstang5]

Cmon Defense!!!!!

[smuggler]

The Packers are going to suffer all night in the run defense.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Do they miss Ha Ha?

They never found a better guy

[pittstang5]

Figures Kirksey gets hurt...been waiting for that. Damn!

[smuggler]

HaHa sucked in the run game, too.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Do they miss Ha Ha?

They never found a better guy

Uhh, Dix is out of NFL already

[beveaux1]

They can't set the edge. Too focused on pass rush.

[Guiness]

Gotta contain Kamala.

not working so well :sad:

[Harlan Huckleby]

Billy Winn. OK

[smuggler]

Dumbass Saints helped us out by not continuing to run the ball.

[Guiness]

nice stop there!

[MadScientist]

At least it was only a field goal.

[Guiness]

It's not pass interference, Terry McCauley. IT'S JUST HOLDING.

definitely a holding penalty, it's just that's not what the ref called it for some reason

[Harlan Huckleby]

Arod a little off tonight

[Joemailman]

Arod a little off tonight

He had more time than he thought on that one.

[Fosco33]

That was a missed make up no penalty call. Wouldn't have changed the result. Saints got 2 bad ones so far

[smuggler]

Those two plays are just heaves to get the ball out. He definitely thought he had no time on third down.

Saints got a bad break on the horse collar, but the OPI on Taysom Hill was holding anyway, even if he wasn't downfield.

[Guiness]

no flag on that?

Replay just showed that he was definitely contacted while he was still on his plant foot, should that be 15 yards?

[GB-Brandon]

Z penalty kills us.

[GB-Brandon]

This is exactly the type of game I expected. Hope we can get a turnover!!!

[MadScientist]

no flag on that?

Replay just showed that he was definitely contacted while he was still on his plant foot, should that be 15 yards?

Should have been something.

[pittstang5]

Cmon Defense!!! Need a turnover!!!

[Bossman641]

Was the holding call on Z legit? Was hoping they would show it

[pittstang5]

Ugh!!! CMON DEFENSE...GET ME A TURNOVER!!!

[Teamcheez1]

Take away the long throw to Lazard and Rodgers has 58 yards this half.

[pittstang5]

You were right there 44 and you couldn't tackle. CMON!!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Preston Smith just isn’t snowing any burst in pass rush.

[Guiness]

what was the route Lazard ran for his long catch, a corner or maybe waggle route?

[pittstang5]

Will someone for the love of God cover Kamara!!! JEEZ!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Take away the long throw to Lazard and Rodgers has 58 yards this half.

Some of us saw this coming with having a GM that has completely ignored the receiver position and it finally catching up with us against a team that actually has a formidable pass defense.

“No Receiver No Peace”

[GB-Brandon]

Will someone for the love of God cover Kamara!!! JEEZ!!!

Kamara is ELITE. He is gonna get his. That’s why they paid the man.

[pittstang5]

Seriously!!!

[MadScientist]

Fuck!

[GB-Brandon]

“No Receiver No Peace”

[Teamcheez1]

This team looks like crap tonight

[Guiness]

aw fuck! so close to forcing a FG

[Teamcheez1]

“No Receiver No Peace”

Can you just stfu with receiver stuff?

[GB-Brandon]

We’re playing the Saints in the Super Dome. Gotta score 30 to win!!

[smuggler]

“No Receiver No Peace”

Will you shut the fuck up already Brando?

[GB-Brandon]

Can you just stfu with receiver stuff?

Absolutely Not. Your trying to put shit on Rodgers when we have the worst receivers in the Fucken league out there right now.

It’s Fucken bullshit!!

[Teamcheez1]

Packers only had 140 total yards in the first half.

[GB-Brandon]

You really think your gonna score 20 and beat the Saints in the Super Dome? Lmao

Now that’s funny.

[GB-Brandon]

Packers only had 140 total yards in the first half.

Yeah, because they have a good enough front seven to neutralize Jones and force our receivers to beat them. It’s not happening other then one time to Lazard!!!

They have a legit secondary!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers isn’t gonna just throw the ball in harms way and throw picks.

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers can’t telepathically get the Fucken receivers open!!

There mediocre to good. That’s it!!!!!!

End of story!!!!

Were not winning a Super Bowl with this current plan.

[RashanGary]

Lazard looks pretty good. And he’s our 2 not #1. We’re good

[RashanGary]

Packers have the better WRs tonight so that’s nice

[GB-Brandon]

Lazard Drop for a first down!!!

[smuggler]

We're in trouble when Lazard gets the drops.

[GB-Brandon]

It would be nice if Lazard could tote that into the endzone!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Lazard falls down every time he catches the ball!!

[Teamcheez1]

Gutsy call, we needed those points

[GB-Brandon]

Big time gutsy call!!!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Pettine needs to stop covering Kamala with lbers!

[Gotarace]

Playing to Win...something I doubted at times with MM as the head coach

[RashanGary]

Lazard is a beast and a top 10 #2 WR in the league!

[HarveyWallbangers]

This Lazard guy is pretty good.

[GB-Brandon]

Lazard looks pretty good. And he’s our 2 not #1. We’re good

We’re not good RG. Go watch the Rams offense with Woods and Kupp. We’re missing a piece and I’m tired of the denial.

[GB-Brandon]

Packers have the better WRs tonight so that’s nice

Your crazy!!!

[Fosco33]

I like the go for it. Gonna be a high scoring affair

[RashanGary]

Top 10 #1 WR
Top 10 #2 WR
Top 10 #3 WR

1-3, top 7 WR core in the NFL

[HarveyWallbangers]

Lowry and Lancaster are near worthless. Supposed to be run stoppers, but get blown off the line. Was that Lowry that almost jumped offsides? Summers in a tough spot. Greene has played a bit, but I'm not sure how much. Would like to see him in there.

[GB-Brandon]

With the necessary weaponry this game would already be over. Instead we’re in a nail bitter and very well could lose.

Go figure!!

[GB-Brandon]

Lowry and Lancaster are near worthless. Supposed to be run stoppers, but get blown off the line. Was that Lowry that almost jumped offsides? Summers in a tough spot. Greene has played a bit, but I'm not sure how much. Would like to see him in there.

We’re never gonna have a good defense.

[GB-Brandon]

Top 10 #1 WR
Top 10 #2 WR
Top 10 #3 WR

1-3, top 7 WR core in the NFL


What about outside Lazard?

[HarveyWallbangers]

Adams and Winn have actually made a play or two.

[GB-Brandon]

Lazard isn’t even Jordy Nelson!!!

Just stop it!!

[GB-Brandon]

Jordy didn’t fall down every time he caught the ball either. He finished!!!

[Joemailman]

Big dog!

[Guiness]

that was a brutally obvious PI!

[RashanGary]

Top 10 WR core. Plus big Bobby Tonyan

[Guiness]

I love me some Luxury Automobile!

[GB-Brandon]

Wow. Anytime you get something form Mercedes Lewis is a huge bonus!!!

[smuggler]

BIGGIE DOGGO

[Anti-Polar Bear]

that was a brutally obvious PI!

Looked like Jenkins held Lewis prior to the pass

[Fosco33]

Barns are burning

[GB-Brandon]

We’re getting everything we need tonight. A turnover would be amazing.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Top 10 WR core. Plus big Bobby Tonyan

Would be #1 with DK Metcalf

[HarveyWallbangers]

that was a brutally obvious PI!

I honestly don't think so. It was close, but he had his hands extended but really didn't push. The CB looked like he backed off trying to sell the call.

[smuggler]

Yeah refs were letting them play on that one. Lewis' was all the more obvious because he's much larger than Jenkins.

[Joemailman]

That was not PI. That was the stronger guy winning the battle.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Who the fuck is 53 of the Packers?

[HarveyWallbangers]

Who the fuck is 53 of the Packers?

I was just going to ask. Where's Gary and Big Z? Did they get hurt?

[Joemailman]

Who the fuck is 53 of the Packers?

Jonathan Garvin.

[smuggler]

I honestly don't think so. It was close, but he had his hands extended but really didn't push. The CB looked like he backed off trying to sell the call.

I actually think Jenkins pulled off because he was trying to avoid getting called for DPI rather than sell an OPI, but in any case, the refs saw the separation was willing on the defender's part.


I was just going to ask. Where's Gary and Big Z? Did they get hurt?

I saw Gary limping a bit when he rolled his ankle a bit. But he didn't look like he was hurt too badly.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Jonathan Garvin.

Z smith just taking a breather, mehope

[Fosco33]

Who the fuck is 53 of the Packers?

Nick Perry. Lol

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers definitely makes everyone better.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Put 23 on 17!!!!

[HarveyWallbangers]

OL playing well again.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

What the fuck!!!!!

[Joemailman]

That was embarrassing.

[GB-Brandon]

Now I’m getting worried.

[Gotarace]

That was pure bullshit tackling...come on man

[Teamcheez1]

Worst tackling I’ve seen all year

[Joemailman]

Rodgers definitely makes everyone better.

Not the defense.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Redmond is worthless tonight. Where's Raven Greene.

[smuggler]

Game of inches. Should have been a loss of four.


Not the defense.

Rodgers is a fucking loser. He should give the defense nightly rimjobs like Brady to keep their morale up.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

As Leroy butler would say, take 25 out of the game!!!!

[Fosco33]

4 missed tackles

[Guiness]

wow...

[GB-Brandon]

All Those Picks and All that $!!!!

LMAO!!!

“No Receiver No Peace”

[HarveyWallbangers]

Hard to blame Pettine on that one. Redmond should have had it stopped for little. Summers for a little more. Pathetic the rest of the way.

[Guiness]

Jaire's shoulder check was terrible. He's have been better off grabbing a handful of jersey.

[GB-Brandon]

Pettine should of been fired after SF. He is a Cancer!!

[GB-Brandon]

Pettine hasn’t done shit for 7 Fucken years!!!

[GB-Brandon]

Getting scary!!!

[Teamcheez1]

O line blocking was garbage

[Gotarace]

Were short

[Teamcheez1]

This team has looked like trash on both sides of the ball tonight.

[smuggler]

I don't mind going for it. I think the playcall should be a higher percentage play. In this game, that would be a pass.

[HarveyWallbangers]

This team has looked like trash on both sides of the ball tonight.

What the hell are you talking about? Offense looks good against a good defense.

Jones wasn't even close though. That will get overturned.

[Guiness]

I can't believe they didn't throw a 3 yard out there.

and holy fuck they got it!

bonus: I think Payton just cost his self $100K

[GB-Brandon]

We needed more firepower to get this done. Just ran out. Guys scrapped hard but Gute kinda cut us off at the knees.

It was a dream to think the defense could win a game for us.

[GB-Brandon]

We found out MVS was completely non-effective against better competition. The rest of our receivers other then Lazard aren’t even worth mentioning.

Huge hole!

[GB-Brandon]

That’s the turnover we needed.

[MadScientist]

They needed that one.

[Guiness]

Did anyone see the call and re-spot? All I got on my feed was Brees suddenly on the field

And go Z!!! I love that he decides to run it back a bit!

and there's Payton w/o a mask again. My only question now is will they ratchet up the fine?

[Teamcheez1]

Some of these play calls mystify me

[GB-Brandon]

We just don’t have the firepower to finish this thing.

Defense will have win it for us!!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

One of those fumbles will bounce our way

Good call

[Bretsky]

Lazard is a beast and a top 10 #2 WR in the league!


Care to list all of the #2 WR's and see where you'd rate Lizard then ?

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers has maxed it out!!!

[MadScientist]

Hey! A third down stuff!

[GB-Brandon]

Way to go D!!!!

[George Cumby]

That was nice defense.

[Guiness]

3 and out, nice! Blew up that bubble screen

[George Cumby]

Really disciplined and swarming.

[RashanGary]

The difference is our elite receiving corps.

[smuggler]

Defense knew it had egg on its face for the drive at the end of the first half and for the screen pass to Kamara. They responded well.

[George Cumby]

GD Rodgers looks good.

[George Cumby]

Lazard is a Beast in the making.

[Fosco33]

That’s a TD

[Fosco33]

Jake will make near stud for the week

[jklowan]

td would be the dagger

[Guiness]

Is Collinsworth capable of saying something good about the pack?

[Teamcheez1]

Is Collinsworth capable of saying something good about the pack?

I don’t think the announcers have been on our side all night.

[George Cumby]

Nice.

[George Cumby]

I really like LaFleur's play-calling.

[Teamcheez1]

This is certainly the best defense we have played this season so far

[Harlan Huckleby]

It's still a game.

[Joemailman]

Packers need a turnover to top 40.

[George Cumby]

Oh yeah. This ain't over

[Joemailman]

Nice play by Burks!

[GB-Brandon]

It’s a big win for me. I had Mississippi State +550 and the Pack +144 parlayed. Made for a phenomenal weekend.

Lots of Beer!!!

[George Cumby]

Brees is so good.

[MadScientist]

Just get the fucking onside kick.

[Teamcheez1]

Don’t think Brees can throw a Hail Mary.

[George Cumby]

I suffer from PTSD on onside kicks

[MadScientist]

Icing the kicker on an on-side kick? That's a new one.

[George Cumby]

Smart special teams play by the Packers? What reality is this?

[George Cumby]

3-0.

woot

[Joemailman]

Smart special teams play by the Packers? What reality is this?

It's our year.

[Fosco33]

All around Good game

[Harlan Huckleby]

a good win

[bobblehead]

We just don’t have the firepower to finish this thing.

Defense will have win it for us!!

Clown shoes

[smuggler]

4-0.

woot

Getting a little presumptuous, aren't you?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Where the fuck is everyone? GameDay threads used to be 60 pages long. This season they’re like 10-12 pages.

[Upnorth]

I was thinking our te would have to step up and I like what tonyon did. His best game yet. Nice to see jace get his first 3 receptions.
Our d on the other hand yeesh... 2011 part 2

[call_me_ishmael]

Really nice win on the big stage. NO brought it today IMO.

[texaspackerbacker]

As usual, I abstained from following the thread during the game - I type too slow and it's takes away from watching the game.

Wading through the comparative low number, 12 pages, it was more than a little bit funny to see the negativity from Brandon, etc.

It was a great game - not quite as big a winning margin as I expected, but great anyway.

On to the "Studs and Cruds".

[George Cumby]

Getting a little presumptuous, aren't you?

lol

Getting ahead of myself.

[call_me_ishmael]

I don't really watch much of the Packers or the other teams 'cause kids, but it jumps out to me how different the offense looks from the offense of years past with big Mike. The misdirection stuff is refreshing. I was just doing the thought exercise of how many points would this team put up with this offensive roster and big Mike coaching? I think the answer is at least 10 points less because they would do less to scheme the not-to-great receivers open.

It seems like M4 is a very good coach.

[RashanGary]

Lazard is 9th in the league in receiving yards
Adams is 17th
Valdez Scantling is 33rd


That’s good production from the top 3 for sure. Very few teams getting as much out of their wr corps

[RashanGary]

It’s nice when our replaceable guys are top 10 in receiving yards

[HarveyWallbangers]

I was thinking our te would have to step up and I like what tonyon did. His best game yet. Nice to see jace get his first 3 receptions.
Our d on the other hand yeesh... 2011 part 2

We may have something at TE. Tonyan and Sternberger are really good athletes. I said before that Sternberger didn't show bad hands in college, and I expected him to break out of it. Davante Adams and James Jones struggled with drops early, but you knew their hands and hand-eye coordination were fine (more concentration drops). Lewis is still one of the the best blocking TEs in the league.

[Joemailman]

I wonder what the score of this game woild have been if Thomas and Adams had bwen healthy.

[bobblehead]

Where the fuck is everyone? GameDay threads used to be 60 pages long. This season they’re like 10-12 pages.

Yea, without Red's drunken rambling you lose about 5 pages alone.

[GB-Brandon]

Clown shoes

MVS 1 catch 5 yards in a game we needed him.
