[Rastak]

BIG CRASH IN AUSTIN!!!


Who was involved?

[run pMc]

Our WR group is pretty pathetic. Rodgers hasn't been good. Only Jones and maybe Lazard have been good.

And yet here we are again, in the 4th quarter and Jones has 8 carries. To be fair, he also has 7 catches, but he's the best player on offense and they should keep feeding him.

[pittstang5]

Yeah - celebrate asshole - you're still down 6 points.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Nobody gives a fuck but if Redcoats win and Panthers win, I win $123!

And I am about to win $123!

[beveaux1]

Stupid penalty.

[Teamcheez1]

Wide open on the pass. Our secondary is 10 yards off every receiver.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Thanks stokes!

[Sparkey]

And yet here we are again, in the 4th quarter and Jones has 8 carries.

Part of that reason is the offense can't sustain any drives. It's also one of the reasons the defense get worse as the game goes on.

[pittstang5]

3rd and long = conversion. with a penalty. Typical

[red]

Who was involved?

alonzo went up over the back tire of stroll and went airborne

alonzo was trying to pass him and stroll went to block him

both drivers ok

[Harlan Huckleby]

dagger

at least Bears are worse

[Rastak]

I should be watching that. Stroll is kinda shit.

[beveaux1]

We've given up.

[Teamcheez1]

The tv announcer:

“I’m very surprised Washington has dominated this second half.”

He would be the only one surprised.

[beveaux1]

dagger

at least Bears are worse

Not sure.

[red]

I should be watching that. Stroll is kinda shit.

seems like a douchebag with a silver spoon up his ass

[King Friday]

The players have completely given up on the coaching staff. The Packers are about to enter a long period of struggles.

[Fosco33]

That’s pretty much game


I don’t care to watch the rest of this one.

[pittstang5]

bah, whatever

[Teamcheez1]

Put Love in.

[red]

washington fans high fiving after a throwaway

i wish we were that good

[King Friday]

Put Love in.

He can’t be much worse at this point.

[red]

Put Love in.

agreed

[Anti-Polar Bear]

dagger

at least Bears are worse

I win $60 if Bears win trm!

[beveaux1]

How much have we scored in the 2nd half?

[red]

He can’t be much worse at this point.

maybe he could atleast run the fucking system and just hand the ball off

[beveaux1]

Washington has scored on every possession in the 2nd half and 2 of the last 3 in the 1st half.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Gambling is depressing as hell when you lose, but when you are winning frogskins, it actually makes the Packers losing, well, not depressing.

[Teamcheez1]

44:38 game minutes since we scored.

[red]

How much have we scored in the 2nd half?

for the season?

29 points

10 was against the bucs, and 2 were from a safety the giants gave us

[pittstang5]

44:38 game minutes since we scored.

That time is just going to go up. I don't think they score at all next week. Maybe a field goal or two, but that's about it. Buffalo is coming of a bye = certain doom.

[Harlan Huckleby]

washington fans high fiving after a throwaway

i wish we were that good

I think one had Packer jersey. Neither looked fat or inbred. Hard to figure that scene

[run pMc]

first 3rd down they've converted?

[red]

I think one had Packer jersey. Neither looked fat or inbred. Hard to figure that scene

you must have mis seen it then lol

[Teamcheez1]

The big question I have is whether MLF and this staff are the right group to lead a rebuild?

[run pMc]

This offense is appalling.

[Rastak]

I think one had Packer jersey. Neither looked fat or inbred. Hard to figure that scene


I saw that Blue Dog. Was shaking my head.

[Sparkey]

Another shitty Rodgers throw.

[Teamcheez1]

Wide open and he overthrew him.

[red]

The big question I have is whether MLF and this staff are the right group to lead a rebuild?

maybe with a group of youngers guys who will listen

but they way he's let himself get walked over by rodgers and his poor choices for staff might mean its time to go

[pittstang5]

Amari good - then amari bad.

[run pMc]

how can these players drop the ball and be considered professional? Terrible. That might've been a TD if Amari catches it

GB 0 for 6 on 3rd downs.

[red]

illegal hands to the face has been our best offensive player today

lock him up now to a long term deal

[run pMc]

2nd third down in a row GB gets bailed out by a penalty.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Refs trying to fuck my gambling winings?

[pittstang5]

Why is there no hurry up!!!!

[run pMc]

Something like 8 dropped passes today.

What's amazing is if you see the stat lines of the opposing teams over the last few weeks you'd think GB was winning by 20. Then you look at the GB offensive stats and you understand why.

[Rastak]

Refs trying to fuck my gambling winings?


I think so Tank.

[Rastak]

Nice catch.

[beveaux1]

Jones is the best WR on this team.

[red]

and then we do something like that

go figure

[Harlan Huckleby]

holy shit

[run pMc]

Someone caught a throw!
It was Jones! Who'd a thunk Jones should get the ball? Now they need make the extra poiny, stop the Heinekens, and get the ball back for a winning FG drive.

[beveaux1]

7 points in the 2nd half.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I think so Tank.

I mostly just bet small frogskins on underdogs via the money line without any research lol. Apparently, I am a better gambler than Bobble.

[Teamcheez1]

Defense needs to make a stand. We have all three time-outs.

[MadtownPacker]

Go for the onside and if it’s not successful it’s just a short field so they waste less time getting a field goal. Then Packers score a touchdown to win by one.

[MadtownPacker]

holy shit
Praying on a Sunday?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Someone caught a throw!

Dont fuck with my gambling frogskins.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Praying on a Sunday?

Knowing Harlan for who he is in FYI, I doubt he prays. lol

[Harlan Huckleby]

Running backs aren't supposed to make a catch like that.
This is a good time to remember the ppl who thought Jones was too much $$ to keep

[run pMc]

Packers will lose to the Bills by 40.


If McCarthy and the Cowboys stomps Rodgers & Co off Lambeau Field (likely) then... IDK. Ugh.

[Teamcheez1]

Great coverage Jaire.

[red]

Jones is the best WR on this team.

we knew that in the offseason

[red]

red bull just fucked max's pit stop and he drops way back

[run pMc]

Can't wait to see this team play the tough part of the schedule. Yuck.
Really not enjoying the current iteration of this team's performance.

[Rastak]

red bull just fucked max's pit stop and he drops way back


How many laps left?

[Anti-Polar Bear]

And I win! I am a winner. :)

[beveaux1]

Defense crapping the bed. Again.

[Teamcheez1]

Jaire getting beat all game.

[beveaux1]

The fat lady is singing.

[Teamcheez1]

The season is officially over.

Time to start thinking on which players we bring back and whether we keep this coaching staff.

[red]

How many laps left?

18-ish

1-hamilton
2-charles
3-max

vettel is in first but needs to stop again, max and leclerc battling now

edit . max back in second

[red]

guys, this was a really bad team we were playing today

[Harlan Huckleby]

The season is officially over.

You have to wonder if Bahk is done. At least as high dollar risk

[King Friday]

guys, this was a really bad team we were playing today

To be fair…they were bad with Wentz. They will play harder without him.

[King Friday]

You have to wonder if Bahk is done. At least as high dollar risk

He is done. It took him 2 years to come back from an injury most recover from in less than a year.

[red]

You have to wonder if Bahk is done. At least as high dollar risk

if the knee still isn't right after all this time, then you have to think thats it for him

at least if he can't play with whatever pain he's still in. cause it sure doesn't seem like its gonna get any better

[red]

how the hell was that not picked off

talk about a wounded duck

[Rastak]

Alcoa fantastic finishes.

[Rastak]

That was nutty! Rodgers forward pass.

[Teamcheez1]

The clown show is over.

[red]

of course it was rodgers that misses the last pass on whatever the fuck that was

doubs probably should have just held on to it and ran for it

[run pMc]

WTF was that

[red]

That was nutty! Rodgers forward pass.

verstappen 2nd 2.5 behind lewis and chaging with 12 ish left

[beveaux1]

if the knee still isn't right after all this time, then you have to think thats it for him

at least if he can't play with whatever pain he's still in. cause it sure doesn't seem like its gonna get any better

I think he'll play next week. This year is going to be hit or miss weekly.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

$500 next week on the Packers vs Bills, money line.

[Teamcheez1]

I think he'll play next week. This year is going to be hit or miss weekly.

It doesn’t matter whether Bakh plays, he will not be back next year.

[Teamcheez1]

Question: is it nearly impossible to trade Rodgers with his current contract? What is the cap effect if he retires?

[beveaux1]

You might be right. Depends on whether they think he's worth $6 million. That's the difference between his cap hit of $20 million if he doesn't play and $26 million if he does.

[JohnMexico]

Question: is it nearly impossible to trade Rodgers with his current contract? What is the cap effect if he retires?

LMAO... the time to answer those questions was the last two offseasons...

Aint no going back now:taunt: we are stuck with this dickhead and over half of the fanbase was too concerned with "running it back"

[red]

Question: is it nearly impossible to trade Rodgers with his current contract? What is the cap effect if he retires?

i honestly can't figure it out, its such a stupid complicated contract

it looks like we would get him with a 100 million dollar cap penalty if we cut him after the season

thats 66 million more then it would hurt us to keep him

[HarveyWallbangers]

of course it was rodgers that misses the last pass on whatever the fuck that was

doubs probably should have just held on to it and ran for it

Rodgers has been pathetic this year--that last throw was just a microcosm. They do everything to keep that play alive--then Rodgers one hops a wide open Runyan, who could have walked into the end zone. Not that it would have mattered.

[red]

12 rushing attempts for 38 yards today they just said

trade arron jones for some nice picks if we aren't gonna use him

[Joemailman]

I can't either. But my understanding is it was designed so that Rodgers can't be cut or traded because the cap hit would be so severe. Rodgers either continues playing for Packers or retires.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

According to various sources including Tom Pellisaro, ken Ingalls, Tom Silverstein, and Sportrac, the cap hit if Rodgers retires after this year is $40.3 million, after 2023 $68 million, and after 2024 $75 million due to bonuses spread out over the length of the contract and guaranteed money.

So we need to start the letter writing campaign for Rodgers to retire this season?

[beveaux1]

Each year, apparently, the dead money rises. I hope those numbers are wrong, but if you google it, that's what you get.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Our best trading opportunities are behind us..

Still plenty of opportunities to trade for a Wu-Tang (skillful) WR.

[oldbutnotdeadyet]

Sure, but with the way Rodgers is playing, why do it? We are already in contract/salary hell..

[Anti-Polar Bear]

No such thing as a salary cap hell anymore. Cook the cap.

[Rastak]

Not in this case Tex.....:-D

[red]

our head coach just said "it is what it is", said who didn't know what the problems were, and said he hasn't seen any signs of players giving up. he also blamed uncharacteristic errors, even those those errors have been happening all season long

if you can't see what problem is, then you ARE the problem

[Massive J]

WThe old man busted thumb QB can't take a snap over center is kind of limiting, isn't it?

There are many problems, and none have quick fixes. Hard to get excited about the Packers at this point.

[red]

hey. dk metcalf just screwed up his knee

maybe we can stop hearing about him now

[red]

I HAVE THINGS TO CONTINUE BITCHING ABOUT, AND THERE IS NO POST GAME THREAD YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MadScientist]

Each year, apparently, the dead money rises. I hope those numbers are wrong, but if you google it, that's what you get.

The dead money doesn't increase, but it is huge for the next several years. It was a full fellatio contract to get Rodgers to re-sign. Paying for MVP, getting MEH.

[Joemailman]

I HAVE THINGS TO CONTINUE BITCHING ABOUT, AND THERE IS NO POST GAME THREAD YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then start one.

[MadtownPacker]

WThe old man busted thumb QB can't take a snap over center is kind of limiting, isn't it?Today was the day Love should have gotten a legit shot.

[Teamcheez1]

I honestly don’t think MLF knows what to do with the team at this point. He did lead us to two 13 win seasons in a row, but this team is falling apart all around him, and he can’t figure out how to fix the problems.

This may be the year the Packers take a step backwards, but you learn a lot about people when things turn bad. It will be interesting to see if he can make the hard decisions even if the results are not immediately evident.

[JABF]

There are many problems, and none have quick fixes. Hard to get excited about the Packers at this point.

A win in this next game against the Bills could put the Packers back on-track for a good season. You're right there are a number of problems. But a big win, at the right time during a season can turn a struggling team around. I could see a win on Sunday night helping get the season back on track. LOL, and if you folks get too "down" about things... always remember, at least you are not the Bears :-)

[Teamcheez1]

I have seen nothing to think this team will not get blown out by the Bills. We are dysfunctional on offense and defense. Nothing is trending up or improving.

Three 13 win seasons in a row. MLF isn’t going anywhere any time soon—as he shouldn’t. When the guy taking up 20-25% of the cap is below average, the team is going to struggle.

[Tony Oday]

Pack beat Buffalo 38 - 17

[call_me_ishmael]

Favre retired at 39 after looking like ass in Minne thst last year. Maybe age is catching up. Happens fast.

[call_me_ishmael]

I can't either. But my understanding is it was designed so that Rodgers can't be cut or traded because the cap hit would be so severe. Rodgers either continues playing for Packers or retires.

He will retire if he keeps playing like this IMO. Although hard to pass up stadium money like that.

[Massive J]

Today was the day Love should have gotten a legit shot.

Definitely yes.

[Freak Out]

Amari gave the game away...again. Kick him to the curb.

[Freak Out]

Arod did not play a great game....some of his throws were way off and gave the receiver zero chance to do anything after the catch. It seemed pretty apparent the bum digit didn't help. Would Love have down better? Maybe...but if Arod says he's fine are you benching him?

[Joemailman]

Three 13 win seasons in a row. MLF isn’t going anywhere any time soon—as he shouldn’t. When the guy taking up 20-25% of the cap is below average, the team is going to struggle.

It's not nearly that bad. His cap hit is 28M, or 13.25%. Still, Rodgers and Bakhtiari combined have a cap hit of 42M for not a lot of production. Next year it goes up to 60M.

[Jaire]

That was just my thought this morning. ..... They have more probs than they have ever had under MLF. It might not be the Bills game though. Perhaps a little farther down the schedule.

Very True ...... but they have to do it first, and that won't be easy. It certainly could happen, though.

So what is going to change between now and the Bills game? It's fantasy.

[MadScientist]

Pack beat Buffalo 38 - 17

So is that prediction from pills, snorting, smoking or injecting? (Don't think drinking is enough to come up with that).

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Dbl post Malone.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Bears are up 33-14, 4th quarter.

Fuck! Had I bet $500 each on the Redcoats, Panthers and Bears - instead of $20 each - I’d be able to afford a small fishing boat trm.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

About to win $183, if anyone cares. And I am pissed.

[RashanGary]

Zach Tom isn’t ready. I hope to see Bakh back for most games. Tom got knocked back pretty bad and he’s gonna see stronger lineman. He’s just not there.
