The Official Week 5 Giants-Packers GameDay Thread

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Maybe it's just me, but I love you just the way you are
No need to stuff your chest with silicone
No need to paint your face upon the stars
And in the clutch, perchance, we could nuke the sun

Where do polar bears go when this planet melts?
Wherever we go, I hope we don't drift apart
We could start brave new lives on the Kuiper Belt
And in the clutch, perchance, you'd let me into your heart

[Rap]
Yo, yo, yo, my name is Tank Elf Duke
My words, my lyrics, make the haters puke
See, my skin's pale, but inside I'm black, yo
Cos only shutdown corners are black, yo
Call me a wigga if it pleases you, ho
Cos I made Darren Charles my bitch, my ho
Shut down that goliath in a high school football game
Yet, school still won't put me in its fucking hall of fame
Cos I was cockier than the Great Arm of Butte, A-Rod
Fuck it, in my awesome mind, I am a motherfucking god
Fuck, coaches wanted me to play the Pistol Force with honor
Fuck that shit, said I, I am a shutdown corner
Just put me on an island and let me do my thing
Cos, bitches, I float like Deion and sting like Wu-Tang
Once a shutdown corner, always a shutdown corner, mate
Lovers gonna love, haters gonna hate

Packers 72
Goliaths 0

Power to the Packers!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

J-Alex and Amos are good to go.

Harrell’s hard-on, Wyatt, is a healthy scratch. Ditto, Rhyan. 1st and 3rd rounders not suiting up- proof that you shouldn’t draft Yokozunas til, maybe, the 6th round.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

UKs anthem is now about a saving a king.

[Sparkey]

UKs anthem is now about a saving a king.
Of course it is. Can't sing about saving the Queen when she just check out.

[Guiness]

Looks like it's going to be a rockin' game day thread with the two of us APB. Wonder how long it will be before anyone from California drops by?

[Sparkey]

I sorta like waking up to watch the Packers game with my coffee.

[Teamcheez1]

I don’t expect to see 4 good quarters from the Packers.

[texaspackerbacker]

Not much action here, APB. Maybe you shut down this Corner of posting hahahahaha.

[Guiness]

how did they manage a delay of game on a FG? Guess they wanted to make it interesting for Crosby

[beveaux1]

We've taken the lead.

[beveaux1]

Can we stop the run?

[Guiness]

one problem is I've finished mine and have to take a shit now. That doesn't generally happen during the first quarter of a game

[Sparkey]

Consistent issues that have been going on for years. This shit predates LaFluer, so what is the real issue?

[Sparkey]

Lol. Mine is brewing as I type.

[Sparkey]

Let's get a stop this time for the first time all year.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Good 3 n out.

[Sparkey]

Packers finally stop a first series drive.

[Guiness]

Giants running on 1st and 2nd. King with a nice stuff on 2nd.

and there's a sad swing pass on third. 3 and out for the Giants.

[beveaux1]

3 and out.

[red]

no game for me today. nfl hides the game behind a paywall.

not giving the nfl anymore money then i already have

oh well, fuck em

[Guiness]

Watson returned the kick, who fielded that punt?

[beveaux1]

no game for me today. nfl hides the game behind a paywall.

not giving the nfl anymore money then i already have

oh well, fuck em

Sorry, Red. We'll try to keep you updated.

[Bretsky]

Hey Bitches; how are you ?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

one problem is I've finished mine and have to take a shit now. That doesn't generally happen during the first quarter of a game

I have been up since 2am. Did not flip burgers last night.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fucking chickenshit play calls!

[Teamcheez1]

I have no clue what the offensive game plan is

[Sparkey]

Disappointing 2nd series. Really apathetic play calling.

[beveaux1]

No running plays on that drive. 3 and out.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Used to be, Butte would annihilate blitzes. He looks scared vs the blitz today.

[beveaux1]

Used to be, Butte would annihilate blitzes. He looks scared vs the blitz today.

His line doesn't know how to pick up the blitz.

[Sparkey]

Quay Walker step in step coverage on Barkely.

[Sparkey]

Great job by the D.

[beveaux1]

Their WR group might be worse than ours. Maybe.

[Sparkey]

Fucking Rodgers fumbled the punt. Lucky that they got it back.

[Teamcheez1]

How soon before we can cut Amari Rodgers?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Damn 8. Pooped out rock but got bailed out by teammate.

[RashanGary]

I truly hate Amari Rodgers

[beveaux1]

Rodgers fumbles the return to Deguarra. Weird...and lucky.

[Bretsky]

Amari Rodgers is on this team because Gutebag drafted him. Free Amari; he'd look good in a Bears uni

[Bretsky]

I truly hate Amari Rodgers


Another wasted 3rd; and I do too

[Sparkey]

Rodgers fumbles the return to Deguarra. Weird...and lucky.

Fortunate, but every week they don't make a change is playing with fire.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

His line doesn't know how to pick up the blitz.

The hot read to Jones vs blitz on that 1st drive was a bad pass.

[MadScientist]

How soon before we can cut Amari Rodgers?

Have to wait until Monday, but halftime would be fitting.

[Bretsky]

Another Watson carry; life the effort. Still didn't like giving up 2 second rounders for him though.

Speaking of, has anybody been watching the development of Alex Pierce ?

[MadScientist]

All hail the Lazard king!

[beveaux1]

Rodgers meditation celebration.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Rodgers meditation celebration.

Word.

[beveaux1]

Packers 10-0.

[Sparkey]

Could have got Doubs on PI on that play. He engaged the db past the los before Lazard caught the ball.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Have to wait until Monday, but halftime would be fitting.

Watson returned the opening kickoff. Lets see what he can do at PR.

[Teamcheez1]

Let’s bury the Giants by halftime.

[Sparkey]

Let's not let up on D.

[Sparkey]

Better discipline on the edges for the run defense.

[Teamcheez1]

Now the defense will go into soft mode instead of attacking.

[Sparkey]

Jaire with a big hit on Saquon.

[Sparkey]

Savage burned but Jones misses the pass.

[Sparkey]

Barkley drops a hot Jones screen pass.

[Teamcheez1]

It’s nearly impossible for a defense to contain Daniel Jones.

[Sparkey]

10-3 Pack after a G-Man fg

[beveaux1]

Defense has been OK.

[Sparkey]

Lawrence is a load inside. Runyan getting no push on the left side.

[Teamcheez1]

Nice to see we are finally trying to get our TE’s involved in the passing game.

[Sparkey]

A little more uptempo on offense.

[Teamcheez1]

Nijman in the game

[red]

is the crowd really as lame as it sounds on the radio?

[Sparkey]

They are being low key when the Pack is on offense.

[beveaux1]

Doubs with a good block.

[Guiness]

Such a nice run by Jones on that 3rd and 4. Giants in nickel but brought everyone up, he sliced right through.

[red]

gotcha

[Sparkey]

Such a nice run by Jones on that 3rd and 4. Giants in nickel but brought everyone up, he sliced right through.

I think Rodgers moving him to his right, was a key on where the safety lined up.

[Guiness]

Nijman in the game

noticed that too, I didn't see where he lined up I assume LT?

[Sparkey]

Luxury automobile sighting for a TD!

[beveaux1]

Could Lewis be more open? TD Packers!!

[Guiness]

Luxury automobile sighting!

[Guiness]

wow, TIL Marcedes Lewis is the only 1st round pick to catch a TD pass from Rodgers. That's pretty crazy.

[beveaux1]

Didn't scout the wildcat.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I thought the wildcat was obsolete?

[MadScientist]

The Giants only have one player on offense. Stop him!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Didn't scout the wildcat.

they ran the same play last week, I think.

[beveaux1]

The Giants only have one player on offense. Stop him!

They lost him when he lined up at QB.

[Teamcheez1]

What will happen when we have to play against a real QB?

[Teamcheez1]

Our DB’s are playing 10 yards off the line of scrimmage.

[Teamcheez1]

Garbage on defense. Two 3rd and long conversions in a row because we are playing so soft in coverage.

[Sparkey]

Packers F making Jones look like an all pro.

[beveaux1]

Good drive by the Giants. There's a reason the Giants are 3-1.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Garbage on defense.

Barry has been calling lots of men. 21 and 26 are having problems covering.

[beveaux1]

Jones with some sharp passing.

[Sparkey]

How can you let a slow fucken TE run that?

[beveaux1]

TE lumbers into endzone on double reverse. 17-10 Packers.

[Teamcheez1]

Pathetic defense. The Giants have out gained the Packers offense with one less possession.

[beveaux1]

MLF doesn't want to be caught with a TO at the end of the half.

[beveaux1]

Packers 20-10 at halftime.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

If Doubs had Greg Jennings’ route running skills, he’d be Justin Jefferson.

[Teamcheez1]

20 points on offense is good.
The 10 points on defense was not.

[Guiness]

Packers 20-10 at halftime.

you wouldn't think so with the amount of crabbing going on in here!

[MadScientist]

Packers 20-10 at halftime.

It doesn't feel as good as it seems like it should.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

you wouldn't think so with the amount of crabbing going on in here!

With Red MIA, teamcheez is the only crabbing lol.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fuck! DB penalty wipes out another sack!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Savage has been sucking all day.

[Guiness]

3rd down, a stop would be real nice here

[Teamcheez1]

I’ll keep crabbing if we can’t cover on defense

[Sparkey]

Too passive on D.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

[QUOTE=Teamcheez1;1121347]I

[Guiness]

was that a designed run for Jones on 3rd and 8?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Gotta stop wiping out sacks with flags, 26! Gotta cover, 26!

[beveaux1]

The defensive holdings are killing us. Two sacks off the board.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

was that a designed run for Jones on 3rd and 8?

According to Madtowns cousin, Mark Sanchez, apparently. 52 stunted inside and made the play.

[Bretsky]

Barry is no Jimmy Leonard

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Barry is no Jimmy Leonard

Word.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Watson looks even worse returning kicks that Amari.

[Guiness]

According to Madtowns cousin, Mark Sanchez, apparently. 52 stunted inside and made the play.

ya, that was one of the more racist comments I've seen on this board

[Sparkey]

Rodgers terrible at deep balls. Doubs had a step.

[Sparkey]

Dillon looks faster today. They stopped having Dillon run hesitation type traps and counters.

[beveaux1]

Rodgers terrible at deep balls. Doubs had a step.

Timing. He was held.

[Sparkey]

Should be a catch for Cobb. Had both feet in bounds.

[Bretsky]

Dillon does look good today; they have not stopped him at all

[beveaux1]

Dillon looks faster today. They stopped having Dillon run hesitation type traps and counters.

He does look quicker.

[Sparkey]

Timing. He was held.

Yup, saw the replay after typing my comment

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Rodgers terrible at deep balls. Doubs had a step.

That one was on Doubs. Doubs is not a good route runner. Had he run around the DB instead of right into him, its a TD.

[MadScientist]

They took so long I thought they might find a way to screw up the review.

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers hasn’t hit any long balls today. Guys were open.

[beveaux1]

Doubs didn't go deep enough on the last one either.

[MadScientist]

Wasting time outs again. They should be able to do better against the Card Sharks defense.

[beveaux1]

Jenkins beat again.

[Teamcheez1]

The defense needs to step up.

[smuggler]

Putting the Rolls in Rolls Royce


Jenkins beat again.

He tried to help Newman first, he did get beat outside, but Newman got beat so decidedly that it didn't matter.

[beveaux1]

Doubs has a lot to learn. He's talented, though.

Jenkins getting beat caused that sack.

[Sparkey]

What was Stoked doing ?

[Teamcheez1]

Soft coverage continues.

[beveaux1]

Jones has played very well. Our D is definitely not top 5. Pretty average.

[smuggler]

Defense looks pretty bad against what's an absolutely garbage offense.

[beveaux1]

Douglas having a rough game. He just can't cover man to man.

[beveaux1]

Savage is weak, but we knew that.

[Sparkey]

Stoked stays backside on Breida and he doesn't get a first. Poor discipline.

[MadScientist]

They can't stop a QB with a bum ankle.

[Teamcheez1]

Receivers are wide open all over the field.

[Sparkey]

Daniel Jones looking better than Rodgers at QB.

[Teamcheez1]

No Barkley, an injured QB, and we can’t stop them.

[beveaux1]

One zone beater after another.

[smuggler]

Daniel Jones looking better than Rodgers at QB.

It's easy when every time you go to throw at least one player is wide open.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Jim Leonhard woulda blitzed on 3rd snd 3 to force Jones to get ball out quickly. Barry has no blitz package.

[beveaux1]

It's easy when every time you go to throw at least one player is wide open.

The zone only works when you get pressure. He's got way too much time.

[smuggler]

I'm kind of getting close to the cut Royce Newman camp. I'm usually not an extremist, but you can't have a player be worst in the league at his position playing in our offense. How could Tom or Jenkins be worse at RG? Why is this guy getting paid, exactly?

[MadScientist]

Giants playing like they want it. Packers playing like they are there to collect a paycheck.

[Teamcheez1]

Joe Berry doesn’t have a clue.

[Sparkey]

It's easy when every time you go to throw at least one player is wide open.

Not for Rodgers. He avoids open guys all the time.

[Fosco33]

This defense looks like crap. Last wk vs a 3rd string, bears/fields looked good against us, and giants missing saquon and 3 wr's and just rolling down the field.

They may not give a ton of points but something isn’t working. Walker looks terrible in coverage. Lots of penalties. Smh

[beveaux1]

We've had the ball 5 times and scored 4 times. Our defense is the reason we're tied in this game.

[texaspackerbacker]

The difference in the game is the Giants have a decent O Line, and the Packers do not.

To predictable. Barry rarely ever blitzes, other than the occasional mike blitzes.

[Teamcheez1]

Why do we have to throw long every other pass?

[Teamcheez1]

Now the garbage is on offense.

[King Friday]

Embarrassing

[MadScientist]

What a shitty series to not respond to the Giants score.

[Teamcheez1]

Time for another long Giants drive.

[King Friday]

The difference in the game is the Giants have a decent O Line, and the Packers do not.

But you say OL play is useless.

[beveaux1]

Defense has to play for us to win.

[smuggler]

Pretty frustrating that this is supposed to be a learning year for the young receivers and Toure isn't playing and Watson is injured and not playing. Not great.

[King Friday]

Packers defense won’t get ahead with Barry. He’s mediocre. He has plenty of talent, but no ability to utilize what he has in a capable scheme from week to week. He does the same thing every week.

[Sparkey]

But you say OL play is useless.

That observation does not fit the narrative, therefore it is false...

[ThunderDan]

The Giants go for a 10 minute drive and we can’t run once to give the D a little rest.

[Sparkey]

Fire Barry. Make Gray the DC.

[Teamcheez1]

Wide open again, we are beyond bad.

[smuggler]

Savage embarrassed in the open field.

[Teamcheez1]

The defense has given up.

[beveaux1]

We can't play zone.

[beveaux1]

Savage is bad.

[ThunderDan]

D is gassed after being on the field for so long in the 2nd half.

[smuggler]

Giants head coach doesn't know formation rules. Pretty funny.

[Teamcheez1]

Douglas has 3 penalties on defense today.

[beveaux1]

Douglas with his worst game as a Packer. Bush league.

[smuggler]

Pretty faggy penalty by the zebras. Are these soccer players, or men?

[Teamcheez1]

MLF/Barry coaching is a complete disaster today.

[beveaux1]

We can't stop them on defense. I have no confidence that we'll stop them if they get the ball again.

[Sparkey]

Packers are pretenders. Game is over.

[MadScientist]

Giants have outscored the Packers 17-0 in the second half. What the fuck is MLF doing at halftime?

[beveaux1]

Giants have outscored the Packers 17-0 in the second half. What the fuck is MLF doing at halftime?

Certainly not motivating.

[Teamcheez1]

Every pass play is a 50 yard bomb.

[ThunderDan]

Can we throw a 5 to 7 yard pass? We don’t need 20 yards every play.

[King Friday]

Every pass play is a 50 yard bomb.

That is life with Aaron Rodgers

[Sparkey]

Guessing LaFluer isn't calling deep balls every play.

[smuggler]

I think the league needs to change the injury rule. If you "get injured" on a play, you need to sit out the series. It happens too often in hurry-up.

[ThunderDan]

Boy, all of sudden we throw short passes and run and we move the ball down the field.

[red]

who the fuck is showtime? is it jones

wayne just keeps saying "showtime", its annoying as fuck

[beveaux1]

We need to score with less than 20 seconds left. Otherwise, we lose in regulation.

[smuggler]

It's Aaron Jones' twitter/instagram handle.

[King Friday]

Packers need to run the ball. We should have 30 attempts at this point. We had the lead for most of the game and only have 20 rushing attempts. Dumb.

[Sparkey]

Lazard wide open on Rd down.

[MadScientist]

Fuck!!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

And we lose.

[Teamcheez1]

Rodgers not good.

[beveaux1]

Why didn't they run on 3rd down?

[King Friday]

Then we throw twice on short yardage to lose. Rodgers is holding the team back at this point because he hates running the ball.

[smuggler]

Pass protection fails in the biggest moments of the game.

[Sparkey]

Rodgers must be blind.

[MadScientist]

Fuck London games. I woke up early for this shit.

[Sparkey]

Or worse than blind, he decides where to throw before the snap.

[Teamcheez1]

This team sucked on offense and defense. No excuse for losing this game.

[King Friday]

3rd and short…should’ve been two runs. MLF and Rodgers deserve to get crucified after this.

[Bretsky]

3rd and 2

RUN THE F'CKIN BALL

This coaching job was horseshit

Our QB was horseshit in the entire 2nd half

[Bretsky]

And I see Chrissy left a game due to injury again

He's a non factor in this team anyways.

[King Friday]

I’ll be glad to see Rodgers go at this point. He has no mobility and no desire to run the offense MLF wants to run.

[Bretsky]

3rd and short…should’ve been two runs. MLF and Rodgers deserve to get crucified after this.



We abandoned Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon in the second half again. Just horrible.

And Rodgers was absolutely garbage in his decision making.

[King Friday]

Signing Bahk long term was a mistake. It will doom this team for quite awhile.

[red]

i'm ready to pull out the pitchforks and torches

this defense SHOULD be damn close to elite with all the top draft picks on that side of the ball

how many times have we seen the offense stall out in the second half this season?

[Bretsky]

And the defense today vs a team without their top 3-4 WR's ......BARRY.......BARRY ........BARRY..........that's why you shouldn't have been such tight asses when making an offer to JL

[ThunderDan]

Douglas’ personal foul is the big game changer.

NY probably kicks a FG and we only need 3 to tie on the last drive to get to OT.

[red]

I’ll be glad to see Rodgers go at this point. He has no mobility and no desire to run the offense MLF wants to run.

i've been saying it since fat mike was coach.

its rodgers offense, he runs what he wants, when he wants

or doesn't run

[Bretsky]

i'm ready to pull out the pitchforks and torches

this defense SHOULD be damn close to elite with all the top draft picks on that side of the ball

We keep going away from RB and trying to make huge plays when we don't have the players for it

[Bretsky]

Douglas’ personal foul is the big game changer.

NY probably kicks a FG and we only need 3 to tie on the last drive to get to OT.


To me that was a marginal call

[Bretsky]

HEY BACKTIARA MADE A PLAY.........oops.............FALSE START

[red]

embarrassing

[smuggler]

Pass protection fails a third time in three plays on the three final offensive plays.

[Sparkey]

Good thing Rodgers wanted to put on a show for the fans today. I guess he didn't really say shit show, so he didn't lie.

[ThunderDan]

To me that was a marginal call

Me too. If you call that you needed to call the play when Lazard was down for 1+ seconds and 30 on the Giants tried to punch the ball out.

[Bretsky]

Pass protection fails a third time in three plays on the three final offensive plays.


Run the f'ckin ball on 3rd and 2; Packers deserved to lose.

Giants coaching stafff and QB deserved to win

[Teamcheez1]

I have to face grim reality. This is a .500 ball club.

[Sparkey]

Rodgers was slammed on a sack, almost identical type play in first half and they didn't call anything.

[Bretsky]

Good thing Rodgers wanted to put on a show for the fans today. I guess he didn't really say shit show, so he didn't lie.


GB brass was noting how AROD wanted to have a great game so he becomes really popular internationally. That didn't work

[Bretsky]

I have to face grim reality. This is a .500 ball club.


The team is what it is; they probably make the playoffs and get bounced again.

[King Friday]

No one gives a shit about Rodgers internationally. He’s a deluded dumbass. They only care about soccer in Europe. Hell, even basketball is higher up the list there.

[ThunderDan]

We averaged almost 5 yards a run today with a long of 11. Why did we abandon the run for stretches in the 2nd half?

[Sparkey]

We averaged almost 5 yards a run today with a long of 11. Why did we abandon the run for stretches in the 2nd half?

Good question for Aaron. LaFleuer says he gives Rodgers a run or pass and let's him decide.

[Bretsky]

No one gives a shit about Rodgers internationally. He’s a deluded dumbass. They only care about soccer in Europe. Hell, even basketball is higher up the list there.


I should have prefaced that. Some of the media thought RODGERS would have a huge game because he wanted to make a huge name for himself.

[Bretsky]

We averaged almost 5 yards a run today with a long of 11. Why did we abandon the run for stretches in the 2nd half?


This is our recipe for losing. Abandon Jones and Dillon

[Teamcheez1]

I really question MLF and Barry’s coaching ability. It takes a real effort to do so little with so much.

[Sparkey]

Rodgers thinks he is the smartest guy in the room. Ironically, that is usually the guy that fucks things up for everyone else.

[beveaux1]

Our defense cost us this game. Our offense, as it's presently configured, can't score 28 points in regulation. This is not a Packers offense from the past 30 years. We're a run first offense because our best playmakers are RBs.

Our defense needs to be able to hold an average (I'm using that term loosely in this case) offense below 20 points. We cannot play from behind, because we don't have the skill players to play from behind.

If we can't generate a pass rush, we can't play zone. Obviously, with this defense, if we play to stop the run, there are gaping coverage issues in our short zone pass defense.

Most teams that commit to stopping the run use extra bodies and play man coverage to stop the pass. I guess our coaching staff is extremely afraid of the big play potential of that alignment

Unfortunately, if you have a disciplined offense willing to take many plays to score, they can easily beat our present defensive alignment.

[RashanGary]

That was tough to watch. Not running on 3rd and 2 at the end of the game after a long drive was really frustrating.

[King Friday]

The Packers offense scored 20 points in the first half. The defense deserves blame, but three and outs on three straight incompletions when you are winning the game is not the fault of the defense.

[RashanGary]

Daniel Jones made some big throws under pressure. We abandoned the run. Tough game.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Fuck! I have more original lyrics to post. Guess you all will have to wait til next season. If anyone needs me, I will be binge watching House of the Dragon.

[beveaux1]

The Packers offense scored 20 points in the first half. The defense deserves blame, but three and outs on three straight incompletions when you are winning the game is not the fault of the defense.

The Giants had the ball 3 times, not counting the kneel down, in the 2nd half and scored 17 points. They had an 11 play drive, a 15 play drive, and a 7 play drive. The defense stopped nothing in the 2nd half.

They also gave up scores on the last 2 drives of the first half. Six consecutive scoring drives. Our defense cost us the game.

Excuse me. Five consecutive scoring drives. Bad math, can't add 3+2.

don't bother, its boring shit

[Anti-Polar Bear]

don't bother, its boring shit

Yeah, I binged the first 5 episodes two weeks ago. Kinda boring and not addictive like GOT.

[Bretsky]

I really think this is 50% on the offense and 50% on the defense.

The offense scored ZERO points in the second half against a well coached defense that is honestly not that good.

And welll, our defense would look really good with Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy as the DC.

[call_me_ishmael]

Let the young kids play. You have two talented young receivers. Throw them the ball.

[Fritz]

I was so excited to watch this team this year. I figured the offense would be a work in progress, but I really, really thought this was going to be a helluva defense to watch. All those great players - the three really good corners, Devondre Campbell, Gary, Preston Smith, Kenny Clark, and the signing of Jarron Reed and drafting of Walker and Wyatt. They seemed like they'd be crazy good.

But they suck. They were up two touchdowns (17-3) against a team with all the wide receiving talent out, a hobbled QB, and to top it off, players dropping like flies during the game. Nonetheless, the defense let the offense score time after time after time in the second half. What a shit effort.

I am souring on Joe Barely. It doesn't seem that it's a lack of talent there. If you can't shut down that Giants team after it got behind by two TD's, that's on you, defense.

MLF also did not have a good game. This loss goes to the coaching staff. I think Joe Barely needs some kind of come-to-Jesus moment where he figures out what the hell he's been doing wrong.

Luckily it's a long season, so the story's not written yet. But at the moment the plot is going sideways.

I was reading some New York Post comments about a few stories when this dude added one about the game today.

As a longtime Giants fan, I could not have been more stunned if the Titanic had suddenly surfaced and sailed on to New York."

I was so excited to watch this team this year. I figured the offense would be a work in progress, but I really, really thought this was going to be a helluva defense to watch. All those great players - the three really good corners, Devondre Campbell, Gary, Preston Smith, Kenny Clark, and the signing of Jarron Reed and drafting of Walker and Wyatt. They seemed like they'd be crazy good.

But they suck. They were up two touchdowns (17-3) against a team with all the wide receiving talent out, a hobbled QB, and to top it off, players dropping like flies during the game. Nonetheless, the defense let the offense score time after time after time in the second half. What a shit effort.

I am souring on Joe Barely. It doesn't seem that it's a lack of talent there. If you can't shut down that Giants team after it got behind by two TD's, that's on you, defense.

MLF also did not have a good game. This loss goes to the coaching staff. I think Joe Barely needs some kind of come-to-Jesus moment where he figures out what the hell he's been doing wrong.

Fritz - my feelings exactly. Well said!

The way things are going, I don't think this team has a prayer against the Jets next week.

Long term, Romeo Doubs is a positive. He makes a big play every game. He’s having a solid rookie year.

[Freak Out]

When you have Alexander playing 10 yards off a street FA something is wrong. Everyone knows Jones has been running bootlegs all season except the GB defense. WTF? Don't get me started about 19 combined carries for Jones and Qaud.

[Jereamiah]

Every pass play is a 50 yard bomb.

This worked for Rodgers in the past. He would invariably get the PA call on those. Thing is, the league (in my opinion) has soured on Rodgers and now, he just won't get those calls anymore on a consistant basis.

What will happen when we have to play against a real QB?

Hmmmm...seems we're gonna have a lot of trouble when we go up against REAL QB's. Dontcha think?

[Fritz]

I think you are right that the refs bailed out Rodgers a lot in the past; I think he's not getting those calls now because none of the WR's has the cache that Adams did.

Every team has a lull during the season. I think it's causing lots of consternation that the Pack's lull started in game one and has yet to let up. I hope they can find their identity over the course of the next few games. But this is not at all the season I'd hoped for. And normally I don't have big big expectations, but I thought this team had the defense to be dominant. But so far, they are laying a big turd.

[Bretsky]

I do expect us to be better at end of the season than we are now; much of that is I think Sharon by then should develop more chemistry with the Dubster and hopefully Chrissy Watson. If he continues to force things to Cobb that is a mistake. But Sharon is never wrong, and last week he used the media again to note his buddy Randall should be on the field a lot more since he looks just as good as back in 2014

I had a real bad feeling this was the kinda game ARod was going to have when he made the comment that he's "going to give London a show." Just had a bad feeling he would force stuff he shouldn't and throw the ball more than he should.

I kinda has that as well; he wanted to be the London stat.

Instead, Run the Dam ball and win !

On another note, when it was 3rd at 1.5 to 2 yards, the Giants completely stacked the box and dared Sharon to beat them with the receivers he had.

Didn't work out well for the London Show

[texaspackerbacker]

That's been happening forever, Bretsky. Rodgers usually just beats them with some sort of a short pass, kinda like the goal line play. Most teams have an offensive line that can grind out 1 or 2 yards just about anytime. Not the Packers, though. Not now, really not anytime in recent history.

Two chances, though, hell yeah, they shoulda run it, and no way they shoulda thrown it downfield like they did. That whole last drive was screwed up - using up 6 minutes or whatever, basically saying if we leave time on the clock, our D will give it away anyway. It woulda been tied, and most teams woulda saved their timeouts and tried to get the ball back and win it.
