Official Packers vs Lions Game Day Thread - Part 2

[ThunderDan]

Huge game tonight with the Lions. With a win the Packers are a game behind the Lions and chasing home field advantage, throughout the playoffs, down the stretch.

Both teams are feeling the injury bug. The Packers are without Jaire and Doubs. Most likely Cooper and Ballentine also.

The Packers needed to pound the rock again this week. Hopefully Jacobs is 100% but Wilson and Brooks have been playing really well to give him a breather. I thought our passing game was much better last week. We got Kraft involved which causes all sorts of problems for the other teams' D.

The D needs to ball out like last week. If we hold the Lions to 3 points in the first half, I have no doubt we are winning the game. We need to stop their run and force them to throw and move Goff off his spot. When teams can do that, he is a turnover machine.

Go Pack Go!!!!

[Fritz]

The entire key to this game is the Packers' defensive line. IF they can be stout against the run, and bring the heat on Goff, they can win this. Clark and Gary need to earn their big-boy money tonight, and others have to step up too.

[CaptainKickass]

Obligatory game day post.

[Tony Oday]

Ugh I dont think we can win but I will have a bunch of food watching it with the wife.

[George Cumby]

Packers win.

[Teamcheez1]

Time for JLo to put this team on his back (okay, maybe Jacobs too).
It’s your destiny.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I will be grinding at poker during the game.

[Vincenzo]

Go Pack!

[Fosco33]

I see a repeat of last Thanksgiving. Packers were underdogs and smacked them in the mouth w/ 20pt 1st q and then hung on for the W.

Go pack!

[MadtownPacker]

3 hours from home at a Packers bar in Sacramento. Pretty nice place and yes there are Packer backers here!!

Packers 31 - Detroit pussycats 27

Freezing my ass off in Minnesota. Wish you were here!

:razz:

[King Friday]

Focus. No pre snap penalties. No turnovers. Get the win and make the NFC North a real race to the finish.

[MadtownPacker]

What so we can spoon? Wtf? :lol:

[Teamcheez1]

This is really poor defense to start the game.

[beveaux1]

Easy peasy. TD Lions.

[Fosco33]

Fucking lame

[Fosco33]

They better call that kinda shit and give 4pt penalties both ways.

[beveaux1]

I'm interested to see how we match against a good team on the road. Are we contenders or pretenders?

[Teamcheez1]

Pathetic coverage, tackling, etc.

[Teamcheez1]

I guess another game where MLF doesn’t have his team ready to play.

[Fosco33]

So defense makes 2 pass defenses and nothing else.

So the offense comes out and lets up a sack.

Neat

[Teamcheez1]

Half of the Lions defense is on IR.

[beveaux1]

Not a great start. OL on skates.

[beveaux1]

Much different playing on the road than at home. We have to settle down on offense

Young team playing a vet team. This is what the playoffs will look like.

[Rutnstrut]

The Lions D gets to the ball fast and tackles with backups. The Packers can't do it with starters? That's a coaching problem not a talent one.

[Fosco33]

That was shit oline play. Better have much shorter throws…

[beveaux1]

Gary!! Good move.

[Teamcheez1]

Lions definitely going for ball control offense to protect their defense.

[Fosco33]

Right back to where we were. Nice

[King Friday]

Josh Meyers getting abused as usual.

[Fosco33]

2 down territory imo

[Teamcheez1]

This offense is terrible 6 points in the last 3 qtrs.
Of course, a lot of you morons thought this was okay from the last game.

[Fosco33]

Missed pf

[Sparkey]

Club a QB in the head and no call. See where this is going.

[Rastak]

Missed pf

I agree and not trolling but a hold also.

[beveaux1]

Packers have to run some blitz busters. He really has no time to throw and they're rushing 6 or 7 every passing down.

[Fosco33]

I agree and not trolling but a hold also.

Yeah - seems like a hold on nearly every drop back. Oline not playing well. And same out / long development plays.

[King Friday]

Tonight, 5 jet sweeps may be necessary.

[beveaux1]

Packers have been very good this year at making adjustments. Unfortunately, it's usually been at the half.

[Teamcheez1]

Lions are bringing pressure to compensate for injuries.
MLF not adjusting.

[Teamcheez1]

Dumb challenge.

[King Friday]

Stupid challenge.

[beveaux1]

MLF always loses challenges...always.

[beveaux1]

If he wins the challenge. They'll go for it.

[Fosco33]

He’s an idiot on these too often

[beveaux1]

wooden. TFL.

[Rastak]

Planted.

[Fosco33]

Who’s 96?

[beveaux1]

Who’s 96?

Colby Wooden.

[Teamcheez1]

We are now up to 46:36 minutes of game time since we last scored a TD in a game.

[Fosco33]

We are now up to 46:36 minutes of game time since we last scored a TD in a game.

Yeah. Where’s the hustle…

[beveaux1]

Turnovers are killers.

[Teamcheez1]

The offense stinks.

[Teamcheez1]

This team is not ready to play.

[Fosco33]

Cut his dumb ass

[beveaux1]

Cut his dumb ass

Trying to make extra yards.

[Rastak]

Cut his dumb ass

He is a dumbass.

[Teamcheez1]

Cut his dumb ass

A lot of acting there.

[Fosco33]

We’re so much better when he’s hurt.

[sharpe1027]

We’re so much better when he’s hurt.

No. No we aren't.

[Teamcheez1]

Can MLF and Love adjust to the blitzing?

[beveaux1]

Defense steps up. Need to get something going on offense.

[sharpe1027]

Can MLF and Love adjust to the blitzing?

The cross by Watson was a good start. Unlucky in the fumble, but the adjustment worked.

[sharpe1027]

Line pushed the Lions a yard back on that first down run.

[Fosco33]

No. No we aren't.

Is that a metric we can assess? Over the years he’s 0-2 when pushing members of opponents coach/staff and lost that game for us when he leapt the FG (2 of those 3 were the Lions losses recently).

I think him having to bring calls in and some adjustments as a Mike isn’t his strong suit. Perhaps as a Will. But he’s just too dumb…

I thought you were talking about Watson after the fumble. Guessing you mean Walker?

For sure. Quay. I’ve been wanting to trade him and Jaire for whatever we can get for awhile now.

[sharpe1027]

For sure. Quay. I’ve been wanting to trade him and Jaire for whatever we can get for awhile now.

He doesn't show up in the stat line for his coverage, but he's guaranteed to have a few complete head scratchers every game.

[Rastak]

That's his face?


I guess if he was a snake.

[Rastak]

Gotta be PI.

[sharpe1027]

This Jacobs guy ain't half bad.

[beveaux1]

TD Jacobs!!

[Teamcheez1]

Finally, 1st TD in 4 qtrs.

[Fosco33]

The fact they boo that is funny given they called one on us

[beveaux1]

This Jacobs guy ain't half bad.

You bet.

[Rastak]

My stream is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY behind.

[sharpe1027]

For sure. Quay. I’ve been wanting to trade him and Jaire for whatever we can get for awhile now.

Nobody's giving anything for Jaire at this point. I think we can do better than Quay, but the PFF grades skew towards fundamentals and don't give credit for a player being fast enough to cover more ground than another player.

[Guiness]

This fucking 3rd down defense

[Teamcheez1]

This game is all about the offense.
The Packers offense needs to score 30+.
We have 7……..

[beveaux1]

Nobody's giving anything for Jaire at this point. I think we can do better than Quay, but the PFF grades skew towards fundamentals and don't give credit for a player being fast enough to cover more ground than another player.

They might release Jaire at the end of the year to save 7.5 million, but they'll probably keep him and hope he stays healthy. Quay will be back next year.

[Fosco33]

If we can get the ball back and score - feel pretty good w/ ball at the half…

[Teamcheez1]

I have no faith in our offense coming back in this game. I hope I’m wrong.

[Teamcheez1]

Love has 31 yards passing.

[beveaux1]

Wasted a lot of time. Should have let him score on 2nd down.

[Rastak]

Wasted a lot of time. Should have let him score on 2nd down.

In the first half?

[Fosco33]

That was about the worst outcome after all thst.

[Teamcheez1]

We have scored 7 total points in the last 4 qtrs.
That’s what a $250M QB gets you.

[beveaux1]

In the first half?

Knowing what we know now.

[Teamcheez1]

The depleted Lions defense is mauling our offense.
The MLF offense is failing tonight,

[King Friday]

Lions are more physical. They are knocking the shit out of soft Packers players. Evan Williams may never again know where he is.

[Teamcheez1]

We have 104 yards of total offense.

[beveaux1]

Everybody brought up last year's game as our blueprint to win, but it's a lot tougher when you're not a large underdog going into a game.

Detroit knows we're pretty good. Last year we weren't. Dallas was sideswiped by us last year because we had no expectation of winning.

Playing in the division, on the road, against a better team, is tough. Ask our opponents for all those years we were the big dog.

That’s no excuse for Jordan Love going 3-7 with 31 yards.

[Teamcheez1]

We are so overmatched in coaching.

[Teamcheez1]

Awesome play!

[beveaux1]

Good drive!!

[Teamcheez1]

Back in it.

[beveaux1]

That’s no excuse for Jordan Love going 3-7 with 31 yards.

Now he's thrown for over 100 yards.

[sharpe1027]

Lions trying to shorten the game shows respect for Green Bay.

[beveaux1]

There we go!!

[Sparkey]

Yes, Nixon Pick

[Teamcheez1]

What a play by Nixon!

[beveaux1]

TD Jacobs!!

[Sparkey]

Fuck all you doomsayers. TD Jacobs

[beveaux1]

GB 3-3 in the red zone!!

[sharpe1027]

Seriously. People are way to fast to go super negative.

[beveaux1]

Seriously. People are way to fast to go super negative.

It's a way to rally the troops. If we weren't negative, we'd never win!

[sharpe1027]

It's a way to rally the troops. If we weren't negative, we'd never win!
Okay. If it works keep doing it!

[beveaux1]

Stokes stuck him.

[beveaux1]

Stokes hit LaPorta.

[Teamcheez1]

Need a stop to take this game over.

[Teamcheez1]

Goff should never run for 8 yards.

[Rastak]

Crisis over here so missed the last half quarter. Pack is back.

[beveaux1]

Need a stop to take this game over.

This is going to be a back and forth game. Offenses taking over.

[Teamcheez1]

2 4th and goals we have been schooled on in this game.
That is a fail by the defense.

[Rastak]

Fucking stupid call.

[Teamcheez1]

Need 30+ points to win this game.

[beveaux1]

2 4th and goals we have been schooled on in this game.
That is a fail by the defense.

best red zone offense in football. This is what we aspire to.

[Teamcheez1]

Our defense doesn’t scare anybody to kick a FG.

[Teamcheez1]

Why are getting cute? Do what works…

[Teamcheez1]

8 in the box and we run.

[Rastak]

Our defense doesn’t scare anybody to kick a FG.

It's the current NFL, I am an old dinosaur so I hate it but maybe going for it every time is the right thing to do these days.

[beveaux1]

Wasted a TO.

[Teamcheez1]

Really unimpressive offensive series.
Playcalling very questionable.

[beveaux1]

Packers ball!!

[Teamcheez1]

Campbell is an idiot.

[beveaux1]

Walker all over that one.

[sharpe1027]

Quay with great pursuit!

[sharpe1027]

Watson's ability to block downfield is underrated.

[beveaux1]

Campbell is an idiot.

He's more successful than not. I wouldn't have done it.

[MadtownPacker]

Watson's ability to block downfield is underrated.
He has been going hard the past few games.

[beveaux1]

4-4 in the red zone!!

[Fosco33]

Jacobs is a beast

[Teamcheez1]

We will need to score more to finish the Lions off.

[sharpe1027]

We can't lose both Smith and Bullard.

[Fosco33]

Jacobs has 8 TDs in last 4 games

[beveaux1]

Back and forth. Looks like whoever has it last has a chance to win.

[beveaux1]

We can't lose both Smith and Bullard.

Do you mean Williams, the bourbon.

[sharpe1027]

Do you mean Williams, the bourbon.

Yeah. One (or 6) too many.

[Teamcheez1]

Can we get a stop?

[beveaux1]

Walker all over the field!

[Teamcheez1]

Goff has completed 26 passes.
Love 9.

[sharpe1027]

Goff has completed 26 passes.
Love 9.
And yet, the game is a toss up.

[Teamcheez1]

Lions will score a TD

[beveaux1]

Lions will score a TD

Back and forth. I hope we have it last.

[Teamcheez1]

This game is all about our offense.
Can Love get us a score when we don’t have a short field?

[Fosco33]

Clear hold on that last play

[Fosco33]

TOP is 32 to 18.

Love has 9 completions. And we’re still in this one.

Let’s go

[beveaux1]

Couple of big passes.

[sharpe1027]

Wicks proving me wrong today.

[beveaux1]

Love has over 150 yds in the 2nd half.

[Fosco33]

Dirty hit

[beveaux1]

That penalty hurt.

[Teamcheez1]

No TD and we lose this game.

[Guiness]

Love hitting all the dimes downfield.

Branch limping off. That squad is some kind of hurting.

[Teamcheez1]

Lions are playing with a 2nd string defense.

[beveaux1]

Love hitting all the dimes downfield.

Branch limping off. That squad is some kind of hurting.

They're still playing well. Good game!!

[Guiness]

I don't think that pick was intentional by Watson

[beveaux1]

I don't think that pick was intentional by Watson

Cost us a TD.

[Fosco33]

See if we can get the ball back w/ any time to score… idk

[beveaux1]

See if we can get the ball back w/ any time to score… idk

We wasted one TO

[Teamcheez1]

Lions will drive down and hit a FG to win the game.
We will again show we can’t compete with top teams in the NFC.

[Fosco33]

I don't think that pick was intentional by Watson

Agreed - fine line between that rub. Idk

[Fosco33]

Or let them walk down the field easily…

[beveaux1]

Better call our 2 TOs.

[Teamcheez1]

This team is good enough to make the playoffs and nothing else.

[beveaux1]

Lions will drive down and hit a FG to win the game.
We will again show we can’t compete with top teams in the NFC.

I disagree. We've competed. We may not win, but we competed.

[beveaux1]

This team is good enough to make the playoffs and nothing else.

Youngest team in football.

[Fosco33]

Left tackle has been lined up pretty deep all game. I think that’s what lafleur was yelling about.

We’re about proper fucked right now.

[Teamcheez1]

Youngest team in football.

That and $5 will get you a bowl of soup.

[Fosco33]

Wont say we didn’t hurt ourselves and we got the turnover back and the 4th down stop… but unless they score right away or miss a FG what else can we do.

Refs have been messing us.

[beveaux1]

Turn out the lights. Good game.

[beveaux1]

We have a chance!!

[Teamcheez1]

I disagree. We've competed. We may not win, but we competed.

We lost to the Eagles.
Vikings.
Lions twice (TBD)

We are a 2nd tier team in the NFC.

[beveaux1]

We lost to the Eagles.
Vikings.
Lions twice (TBD)

We are a 2nd tier team in the NFC.

You're right. He's a dumbass. But so lucky.

[Teamcheez1]

Lot of duds in this game.

[Fosco33]

And he stumbles and still makes the handoff. That would’ve been a way to lose. Fuck Detroit

[Guiness]

Wow, they snapped the ball and almost botched it. I can’t even be upset.

[beveaux1]

Good game. Would have been a great game if we won.

[smuggler]

Not punishing Campbell for his retarded decision making is killing me. Guy's about as smart as a welfare mom.

I'm so excited for next season when I never have to see Stokes' useless face ever again.

[Teamcheez1]

My expectations have really dropped for this team.
The offense and Love haven’t stepped up this season.
The defense has shown improvement, but not enough to matter.

We are not going anywhere in the playoffs.

[Sparkey]

You sound like a Bears fan calling into the SCORE. The Pack is 9-4. They went on the road and played the best team in the NFC toe to toe.

Relax, take some gummies and chill a little...

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Goff literally took a knee on that 4th down play. Why wasn’t the play blown dead?

Ain’t much differences between taking a knee out of the victory formation and what Goff did.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Take a knee out of the victory formation, can’t be touched. Take a knee with your ass facing the LOS, not down by contact.

WTF?

[King Friday]

Defense far too soft and incapable of getting any kind of pressure on the QB. Detroit RBs caught 342 passes at or within a few yards of the LOS and we never stopped it. Not once. At some point, you have to learn when to take chances. Our defense never does, and always comes up short against very good teams.

[Sparkey]

Except for the whole voluntary / involuntary aspect of course ... This ain't college ball Tank.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Except for the whole voluntary / involuntary aspect of course ... This ain't college ball Tank.

OIC. Still, fuck the refs! The Watson OPI was bullshit.

[call_me_ishmael]

Last year we were talking about which receiver was the #1, and we were so sure the depth was great. Man, I'm not so sure that it is. They need to get it moving. If the OL is good, and the receivers are top notch, then what's the problem?

I think Josh Jones isn't nearly as good as Aaron Jones despite the numbers. Yes he is available and yes he is consistently above average but he isn't the home run tilt the field type player.

The Packers D just looks like ass. They just don't look like they have any field tilters out there. It's obvious they didn't tonight.

Is Rashan Gary washed? Kinda looks like he might be? Is Hercules a never was? Kinda seems like he might be.

Packers need a healthy Ja for the stretch.

I still think the Packers will find a way to nut up and get out of the NFC, but the lack of a field tilter on offense is a problem. Time for Watson or the shake-and-baker Wicks to become that player. Where was Reed tonight?

[pittstang5]

.....Where was Reed tonight?


What in the actual fuck? 0 catches. Was he even in the building? Did he get injured? Seriously!!!! 0 fuckin catches!!! WTF!!!

[Teamcheez1]

So much for the Lions having a depleted defense
We gained over 400 yards the first game.
We didn’t even crack 300 yards in this game (298). We did have some short fields, but we never seemed to get in rhythm. Give the Lions credit.

Offense had to win this game.
Only 7 points in the first half
Love with 12 completions for the night.
Oline struggled all game.

[King Friday]

Drafting is becoming an issue for the Packers. LVN is looking like a bust for where he was taken, and Morgan has offered nothing. You should be getting contributions from your 1st round talent. We’ve passed on solid talent to take fliers on athletes, and it isn’t paying dividends.

Ja - hurt 50% of the time
Gary - Impact player but not the same guy this year, looks washed to me
Love - Loving good generally, down compared to last year IMO
Stokes - Not an impact player
Walker - Not an impact player
Wyatt - Pretty good player
Van Ness - Not an impact player
Morgan - Not an impact player (yet)

Yeah, I have to say I agree that his first round picks have been somewhat underwhelming in that regard. Injuries do happen and it's unfortunate that two of the premier athletes's speed was stolen by ford field. They started out so promising but time hasn't been super kind to them. The availability for Ja is such a big factor.

They started slow. Felt like Detroit sent pressure a lot - saw them sending 5-6 more than a few times at Love. Also, Detroit just flat out held the ball longer. 70+ plays for DET, only 45 plays for the GB offense. Hard to score points if you don't have the ball.
DET had too much success converting on 3rd and 4th down.

Didn't like the Watson OPI call, was pretty tickytacky, but don't let 'ref bad luck' decide the game. They should have called OPI on LaPorta 2 minutes later.
It feels like they are missing one piece on offense. Maybe that was Reed tonight, he's been quiet recently and makes me wonder if he's injured or if teams are erasing him in coverage schemes. If so, MLF has to counter that.

They took the best team (right now) in the league down to the wire. Sucks they couldn't pull off the upset, but they were underdogs for a reason.
Time to focus on getting healthy with the mini-bye and focus on beating Seattle. Doubs, Jaire, Cooper, Bullard, Evan Williams, etc.

[CaptainKickass]

bORE mANJO thread posted.

Reed can't beat (good) man coverage.

I'm a little concerned about the Williams injury - I hope he's not injury-prone.

Lions are reminding me of the 2010 Packers - the constant injuries are not stopping them.

The defensive line just did not get the job done against the Lions, period. And at this point, why are they playing Stokes at all? My gosh he's just pretty bad.

[MadtownPacker]

The lions are nothing like the 2010 Packers. More like the 2010 Atl Falcons who had only 2 losses on the season. Then they got beat down by the wild card Packers. I considered it Rodgers best playoff game ever.

[run pMc]

DET does seem like this year's "team of destiny", but part of me also wonders if the injuries and all the in-game luck they've had is going to run out in the playoffs. I could see them breaking fan's hearts in the SB or NFCCC.
Some of that could come down to Campbell taking a gamble that doesn't pay off.

Ben Johnson has to be the hottest name in the offseason HC cycle.

Why wait until the NFCCG to have the Loins break their fans' hearts? Why not have them OUT in the first playoff game after their bye week?

Ya gotta dream big, brother!
