We are going to lose. Nothing else to say. Put Love in after this game. Please throw the towel in.

Eagles lost 2 weeks ago and could’ve lost to the Colts - we play them at a perfect time and have almost nothing to lose (if we happen to win out I suppose an outside shot of a wild card is on the mega parlay line).

They play next week vs the Titans so it’s not much of a trap game - and it’s SNF so expect it’ll be raucous.

I’ll go on a limb and say Packers lose by 4 but have a shot to win as we’ve had so many times.

[run pMc]

Jalen Hurts is much improved from the last time they played, when he was running all over with nobody to throw to.
The Eagles can be run on, although they just signed Suh and Linval Joseph so that might change. I don't like the matchup -- the Eagles offense is a bad match for GB even if Goedert is out.
Feels like a 31-17 loss to me, but it's been such a weird year who knows. GB has talent but they haven't played up to it.

[Joemailman]

Philly seems a lot like Dallas to me. If Packers can protect Rodgers and run the ball, I think they can hang in this one. Defense will have to play a lot of zone or Hurts will run for 100+yards.

[flamacue]

Philly is at home. Packers lose another one.

[Sparkey]

I think the Packers need to fly up some ayahuasca. If Rodgers is "enlightened" aka high, maybe he will stand tall in the pocket and not shrivel like an old man reaching for his blanket when the pocket starts to shrink.

In the real world, at a difficult place to win, they have ZERO chance. It is like the whole team plays to not make mistakes and by doing so plays slow and mechanical and hinders the physical abilites of their players.

[bobblehead]

Not much reason to be optiistic. My only hope for this game is that somehow Doubs makes it back and we get to see our dynamic duo of the future on the field together for once.

[Freak Out]

Enter the dragon.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff comfort me.

Packers by 6.

Zero chance is yours truly quitting burger flipping, moving to Hollywood, making it big as a screenwriter/lyricist, and ending up wooing Jennifer Lawrence.

The Packers actually do have a chance, even if the odds are against them. Any given Sunday.

The Redcoats marched to the City of Racist Italians and gave the Balding Eagles and their racist Italian fans a taste of the humble pie - winning me $415 along the way, which I subsequently pissed away at the poker tables. The recipe of that pie?

Pound the rock, milk the clock, keep Hurts on the bench and in the well. Doesn’t hurt to force a tons and turnovers. The QB also needs to manage the game efficiently, as German Bert Favor, Taylor “Swift” Heinicke did.

That being said, I picked the Balding Eagles to win by more than 7 in my unwise $20 8-teams parlay.

well shaaron has come out and said she officially has a broken thumb. time to throw his ass on IR and play love

should have done that weeks ago

[Massive J]

OK. After enduring the never ending dumpster fire of a season that continues to dick punch all of us irrationally optimistic Packer fans, Jesus H. Christ has finally spoken to me. It wasn't about repenting, or going to church or not choking hookers.
He spoke unto me thus:

The Packers are going to kick the shit out the Eagles.

Hard to believe, but I for one believe! Bet appropriately!

This is a carefully crafted public relations move to allow AR to bow out gracefully from finishing the season.

[bobblehead]

As they should be doing. Late in the 4th quarter if we are down 2 scores he should take a sack, come up holding his thumb and grimacing. This clears the way for him to allow Love to show his wares. If Love balls out at all, we then can choose which one to trade. If Love falls flat we can beg Sharon to come back for a couple more years.

Thank you!!! I bet everything on this! Cant wait!

As unlikely as this is, I think this is precisely why Aaron will not sit. Players don't want to ever give their replacements a shot. Players play, shooters shoot, and all.

I agree. You start with the carrot and if it doesn't work, you move to the stick. Try and sell it to him as best for him and the organization. If he balks at it tell him ok, on board or not, we are putting you on the IR.

Joe, you have made 2 very insightful posts I wish I could have read.

[Arctic Fox]

I hope the Packers show some heart this Sunday. I'd like to see some urgency in their play as well.

[QBME]

Yeah, me too.

Players and coaches.

We're done this season, let's see who is and who ain't

[bobblehead]

I'd like to see rodgers run the milf offense and run the rock 23 times in this game. Also line up under center so play action actually has some effect.

[red]

come on, lets light this bag of shit already

[Fosco33]

Everyone pre game picked Igles.

I think if we get 150+ yards on the ground, convert 3rd downs and win ToP and TO differential that we could pull this out. Nothing to lose.

Playoffs start tonight. Will they end tonight?

[Teamcheez1]

Such lack of interest that the game day thread is unclaimed.

[Rastak]

Probably don't want me starting it although in the past I did start several game day threads.

[red]

well that seemed easy

[Harlan Huckleby]

hmm, respectability might be ambitious

well the defense sure started out like they wee in the playoffs

[Harlan Huckleby]

jeez

[Harlan Huckleby]

can't blame AR there

[Harlan Huckleby]

Can NBC flex out of this game?

[Tony Oday]

This defense is pathetic.
