"The Packers are who we thought they were....the Packers are who we thought they were....thats why we came to Lambeau! That and the Bratwurst!!!!!

- Denny Green, 10/29/06

[Fosco33]

I have a good feeling about next Sunday.

AZ hasn't won a game on the road since November '05. With the Rowen being replaced, the offensive weapons of Bouldin, James and Leinert have looked out of sync.

In losing to Oakland today, they've dropped 6 straight.

It's prime picking for a W. We may actually be favored for once :wink:

Then we face the Bills - who looked inept vs. a solid Patriot team.

4-4 or bust

[Tony Oday]

Well since we are going for things that worked this week here we go...

Cards 38 Pack 13 Favre throws 3 picks and fumbles on for 6.

James runs all over us for 125 and a touch

Boldin catches 100 yards and 2 TDs.

[The Leaper]

The Cardinals looked HORRIBLE today.

The problem we are going to have with them is their big, physical WRs. We are going to have to put a lot of pressure on Leinart. Their running game hasn't done much all year.

Is it too late to start hoping for a snow storm? Has Leinart ever played in snow?

[Partial]

I would say we're pretty much a lock to beat Arizon.

For starters, its a home game. It would be rather bizzare to drop this game as it gets colder and colder in Green Bay.

Secondly, Arizona has good receivers but their line is terrible and they have ZERO running game. Our front 7 is the strength of our team and they will have no problem stopping the run and getting at Mr. Leinart.

Packers 27, Cardinals 17

[GBRulz]

a bit OT, but there seems to be a few rats going to the AZ game next weekend. That I know of.... Harv, Superfan, Bretsky, myself.... we're planning on meeting up, hopefully a few more of you can join us.

[FavreChild]

Well, we haven't won a home game yet. Please bring home a winner, GBR!

AZ will probably throw 60+ times, just like Miami. Boldin won't drop as many balls as Miami's WRs, though. Thankfully, Buffalo's passing game sucks (no offense to Lee Evans), looking ahead to Nov. 5.

[GBRulz]

If all goes well next weekend....it will be 75 degrees and sunny. Sorry, am not ready for winter yet AND we'll bring home the first home win of the year!

[GBRulz]

ok long range forecast for next weekend. Snow and highs in the upper 30's.

I live here WHY? :?:

The PACKERS!!!

[Lurker64]

I wonder who Denny thinks we are. With any luck, he still thinks we're one of the monster Packer teams of the early 90's. With more luck, we can be who he thinks we are.

[DannoMac21]

I'll admit, Arizona is pretty much my second favorite team, but the Pack will come out with this one.

We gotta hope that Fitzgerald is still out. Boldin is a monster, and James is completely overrated.

[ND72]

I think today AZ might have had Chicago hang over...but if you let them hang around, they could be dangerous next week. GB has to get on them fast, and furious. Score quick and make them doubt the chance.

[b bulldog]

Denny may be the first coach fired this season

[ND72]

I think that's a very good chance...who ever takes over could have a very nice team to run into though...Leinart, James, Boldin, Fitzgerald...young defense...just need to find an OL.

[b bulldog]

If they do tank, I would pick Thomas or Levi Brown with their number one.

[]{ilr]3]

Denny may be the first coach fired this season

I am assuming that is why he tried to get rid of his OC since he would probably be the person to replace him if they did shit can him mid-season

[b bulldog]

I place the bear loss on his shoulders

[HarveyWallbangers]

Any other Rats live in or near Green Bay or going to the Arizona game?

[GBRulz]

Harvey, we have two more joining our tailgate party next weekend. We might end up tailgating at the Sideline Sports Bar after all. I'll keep you guys posted.

[mmmdk]

Gotta win this one; Packers can't go 0-4 at Lambeau. No sir :whaa:

[GBRulz]

game thread down to page 3 already.....needs a bump.

Why don't you guys start these a little earlier :twisted: :lol:

[pittstang5]

McCarthy preached all off season about home field advantage and reviving the Lambeau mystique. This is the week that the Packers must win. They need to keep the Cardinal "O" off the field - their WRs can be scary, even if Fitz isn't playing (Johnson's no slouch, however I heard their is a small chance Fitz could play). However, when the Cardinal "O" is on the field, they have one glaring weakness we all know about. Their O-line. I am expecting KGB to finally have a 2 -3 sack day and welcome Mr. Leinert to the Green Bay turf. Kampman is at least good enough for 2. I would even venture that a DT or two should have at least 1 sack. Throw Hawk and Poppinga in the mix, along with Woodson.....Leinert should be on his back most of the day.

[Tarlam!]

A.J Hawk welcomes Leinert to Green Bay by terrorizing him up and down the field.

That's the battle I want to "see"....

[GBRulz]

I will be shouting for us !!!!!

the more the beerman comes around, the louder I will get!

[Partial]

I have a hunch this game is going to be a bigger challenge than any of us would imagine. We've seen the cardinals at their best and worst, and coming off to embarrassing losses they're going to be desperate and ready to show the world that they're not that team.

[ahaha]

The Packers are due to win at home. A.J. Hawk is starting to break out, and I predict he'll have a monster game in front of the home crowd.(12 tackles, 1 int, 1 FF, and 2 sacks). Leinert will throw for some decent yards, but James will be shut down. Multiple breakdowns in protection will lead to drive-stalling sacks as well as turnovers. Leinert and Denny Green will have a good cry session in front of reporters at the end. Green then gets fired, just in time for their bye week.

Packers 31
Cardinals 13

[swede]

Agreed, Partial.

But the way to get by that is to beat them soundly in the first quarter. The air will go out of them like the autopilot in Airplane and they'll fold themselves up for the long flight home.

Partial, you're spot on. That cardinals secondary is awesome with Rolle & Wilson - Cards defense seems to create turnovers galore each week. Plus Leinart is no ordinary rookie, he's way better than Joey already and Joey racked up huge numbers vs Pack. Luckily, Joey is not a very smart QB but Leinart is. Beware!!! :shock: But hey, as I said ealier, Packers must not go 0-4 at Lambeau - I would be devastated if we lose sunday. So Packers win :mrgreen:

I think Joey's stats were a mirage. He threw 62 times. If you don't get 400 yards, thats pretty bad. I suspect that they will give up about 200 yards passing but not much more since Edge is beginning to complain about his lack of yardage.

I would LOVE it if that happened. He'd be the player of the week in MMQB and everyone league wide would start to get "merriman boner syndrome" towards Hawk like they did last year around this time.

True about Joey; as I said he's not a smart QB - a smart QB would've killed the Packers D. Enter Matt Leinart?? I do believe the Packers D will start playing better - they already do. I strongly belive Packers will and must preveil on sunday...say a 27-17 win. Yup, I hope Packers D will FINALLY keep an opponant under 20 points - a thing they haven't achieved so far this season.

[pittstang5]

Interesting stat - Arizona has forced 20 turnovers this year, highest in the league. However, they have turned it over 16 times: +4 Difference

Brett and company better be on their toes when playing the Cardinal Defense. No more throwing late across the middle!

[Chubbyhubby]

Denny may be the first coach fired this season

I'd like to change that prediction: Mike McCarthy will be the first coach fired this season.

What do other's think of that? I'd like to hear your opinions.

[MJZiggy]

Sorry, Chubby, I'm with Bulldog on this one. From what I've read, Denny was lucky to make it through the week. McCarthy is leading his team in the right direction and like Brett said, "he's saying all the right things and he's doing all the right things." He has an extremely young team, high standards and a long leash this season to get things done. If he can't get things going NEXT season, that might be a different story.

I don't think much of it at all because it won't happen. Even though his preseason analysis hasn't proved spot on, there is a definite improvement and it looks this this team will go 7-9 and be a team fighting until the end. Realistically, this should be one of the WORST offenses in the league. It's playing about average, which is HUGE considerin how young and inexperienced it is. Come december when the running game becomes that much more important, watch out.

I will concede that. Granted this is a young team and especially with a 3 starting offensive linemen who are rookies we are expected to struggle. Maybe its not MM fault, though I hope they get thier act together soon. Next year will determine MM's fate. If the team doesn't improve then head will roll from the top down. IMO.

[Chubbyhubby]

I question Why Brett Favre came back to play for the Packers in 2006? He has said several times that he wants to win championships and wants to win. The Packers have said that Brett Favre is the QB for the Packers to "Best Chance to Win" Yet after 7 games of play in the 2006 season we are 2-5. Several times this year the blame was squarley on Brett Favre shoulders and he lost the game because of HIM. Some people give Brett Favre "God" status when they talk about him. I for one have trouble with that assessment. He is a great QB who will be in the HOF one day no doubt.

Clearly 2 things have been known for the Packers this year. One, They are not going to the playoffs this year. and Two, They are rebuilding.

Face it BF supporters as all of you hope and pray that Brett Favre will come back next year and lead this team to the playoffs I say is this: Be realistic look at this team as a whole this team is rebuilding and its time for #4 to hang up his cleates and mow is farm.

Let the Bashing begin!

[MJZiggy]

Uhhh...we're 2-4. Brett's not going anywhere 'til he decides to or someone takes his job. So far, neither has happened.

[HarveyWallbangers]

4 losses came against the following rated teams in SI's power rankings
#1
#5
#13
#16


In my opinion, 13 is a little high for the Rams, and 16 is WAY TOO LOW for the 2nd best team in the NFC behind Seattle.

We hung in there with #5 and #13, and were blown out by #1 and #16.

Chubbs - I'm not going to bash you, but I do not agree with some of your points. However, I do agree that this team is in a style of rebuilding whether TT or MM want to admit to it. The moves are obvious - letting older players walk, bringing in younger talent - the most convincing was the upgrade or at least attempt at upgrading the defense. But one thing I just don't understand is why you feel Favre should not be here. If Rodgers were ready to go and showed to be the better QB than Favre, I have no reason to believe that MM would have him in there. Rodger's now has another year just to sit back and learn the "O".....what's it hurting. What is it about Favre that you don't like playing this year or next. Let me understand.

On another note, I find it hard to place any loss this year squarely on Favres shoulders. Maybe you see it diffrently, but this is what I see.

Bears - the team as a whole lost this game. Defense was piss poor, no running game and Brett had no protection. Yes, he did through two ints, but did they hurt the Pack - No, the Pack was already losing and had no chance of winning.

Saints - I contribute Ahman Green's Fumble to this loss. That took the momentum right out of the Pack.

Eagles - Poor Defense play in 2nd half. One of the problems was let go.

Rams - Well, maybe you have one here with the Favre fumble at the very end, but some will say that was Moll's or Tauscher's fault. Either way, Favre almost won us this game.

IF you do not beat the redbirds I will come in here and spew cocka out my pie hole all week ! :shock:
The redbirds are pethetic ! ANY collage team could beat them ! Now I am NOT rooting for the pack, no, no, no, never ever happen, nope, ... but this one is in the bag... right ?

Sorry bearman, but that's what youre NOT gonna do. If Lord Favre wants to then he can because he stayed on here the whole game while the bear where getting thrashed by those same redbirds. You decided to hide in your cave until the bears came back and won. Now you get to stay in your cave until you hang tough like your bear homie.

[BEARMAN]

Dude, TV is in living room, PC is in basement, can not be in two places at once. I am good, but not that good.

Ok, folks time for pregame predictions. I predict that it will be a tight game with a narrow victory for the Pack, UNLESS we get the quick-strike first touchdown. If that happens, and we can hold them off on their first drive, it could get crazy.

My thinking exactly. But whatever it is that will be coming out of his pie hole it's interesting that Bearman admits he had either one in his mouth in the first place.

I'm surprised more of you aren't mentioning the Cards' turnover ratio. They generate a whole, whole lot of turnovers on their defense. This would seem to be the key to what will be a close game.

[vince]

24-10 pack
:bow:
That's my prediction too. While I do think the Cards could be dangerous, I think the Packers are going to run the ball down their throats. Big breakout game for the rushing attack. If Ahman and Vernand hang onto it all day, there'll be no stopping them.

On the other side of the ball, watching Leinart will be like watching Brett Favre Jr. He'll be three-step dropping and dinking and dunking, but I think we match up well with them. They can't run the ball, and I think speed hurts us more than size on the outside.

And I hope we stay healthy. This team is getting better and better, but more injuries could upset that. :pack:

[mmmdk]

I've predicted a Packer win all week and I still say Packers 27 Cards 17. I've just finished watching the Pack vs Dolphins game for the second time and even though the Packers won, I don't feel like Packers are a team that scares opponents...yet. Miami did must of the damage to themselves but Packers were the best team last sunday. If I was Denny Green then I'd take the notion from the Miami game that you can kill the Packers defense with check downs to the RBs and get the TE involved too, something the Cards haven't done this season. The talent on Cardinals defense is pretty scary, they can win games, only, they have to figure out how to finish games e.g. vs Bears (that was mostly the offense choking though). I still have Brett Favre's words from the last Post Game Press Conference in mind; that the Packers have a long ways to go which also convinced me that Favre is really digging into this team and season regardless of the outcome - something he struggled mightily with last season. I have no great explanation for the outcome on sunday other than it's just about time Packers win at Lambeau, it's just time.

[packrulz]

I'm not looking past the Cards at all, as they proved against the Bears, their D is pretty good. Jennings might not play, Driver will be double covered all day, so if they pressure Brett to throw into coverage it could be disasterous. M3 needs to get the TE's more involved in the passing game. I've bashed David Martin in the past but I feel he's improved as a receiver this year and has stayed healthy for a change. I feel it will be a close game but as long as Brett doesn't throw it up for grabs the Pack should win. Leinart fixates on his receivers so I hope the defense can pick off some of his passes. Pack 20- Cards 17. I'm thinking the Pack can get to 4-4 by the time they play the viqueens, as long as they don't turn the ball over.

[Tarlam!]

The Cards will either be playing for Green or they won't be. They know, a loss to the "lowly" Packers means the end for their HC.

After the Chicago game and his blowing up on national TV, the team might implode purposely....

Tough one to call. :?:

[Oscar]

I'm thinking the Pack open things up today. The Defence comes to life and shuts there pasing game down. The ofense runs wild. And the special teams finanlly get a kick return for a score. A guy can dream... right. Must be the time change.. :mrgreen:

[BallHawk]

This could be a trap game. The Cardinals are a bad team, but they have shown flashes of good football (Bears Game.) This is just the team the Packers could be torched all day by. A Young QB who has talent, A Veteran RB, And a Very Talented WR. Luckily, Fitzgerald is out. However, the Cardinals O-Line is horrible, Leinart is a rookie and prone to mistakes, and the defense is bad. It very well could be a blowout in the Packers favor, but I see it being closer than expected.

I look forward to a Classic Denny Green podium melt down :cool:

[Fritz]

This is a scary game. If the Cards come out firing the Pack will be caught off guard and it'll take a whole game to get back into it. I think there will be a fired up Card teaming coming out today.

[Guiness]

Pack 30 (TDs for R. Martin, Green, Al Harris)
Cards 24

TD for Martin, eh? That would be neat. I could see Morency getting one.

I like your score though - likely, IMO. I think the Cards will be able to score, so I see them getting over 20 pts. I know Fitz is out, but there's no flies on Boldin, and our secondary hasn't shown much ability to stop anyone. It would be interesting to see the Pack use Collins to provide over the top coverage to help Woodson or Harris and see if they could shut him down. They should be able to do that because the Redbirds shouldn't be able to run the ball.

Only way I see the score remaining low is if the running game gets moving, and the Pack eats up the clock on the ground.

[Tarlam!]

So.... :shock: ....HOW LONG TO THE KICK OFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!??????""""""!!!!!!!!

No, I don't care...I was just wondering....

[Willard]

I imagine Al Harris will be on Boldin most the day (which is why I think he may get a chance for a pick6). They better help him out with a safety because Boldin is a beast. BTW, I think we did a good job shutting down Chambers last week (of course, Joey hooked up with everybody else for 414 yds so it is hardly a momentous achievement!).

This just in : Jennings officially out. Driver will line up in Jennings spot; Martin will line up in Driver's spot. Will Henderson is active for the home game. I like it! He deserves a few more rousing ovations in GB. I hope he lowers the boom on some unsuspecting Card ST player!!

[Tarlam!]

Funny. I am listening to Cardinals Radio. Thy are Shit scared of A.J., Nick Barnett AND Collins....

I'm havin' a GOOD time....

Yea, he's all class. I had really hoped he's take the Vikings offer he's a loyal guy. I bet he could still contribute, I really don't think he's washed up, I bet he was more hurt than he perhaps indicated to the trainers.

[Rastak]

Really, Collins has been torched a few times this year. AJ is starting to look pretty good.

[MJZiggy]

They should be...they should be scared of Favre as well I would think.

[Tarlam!]

The radio says, they're gonna run. They have a young QB and they don't want him hit. So the coaches.

Coupla players (maybe ex-players) wanna pass pass pass. Saying Al aint what he used to be....

It'll be interesting to see how the reshuffled OL of the Cardinals will look.
If they look like I think they will Green Bay should be able to handle Arizona pretty easily. If the OL plays well it could be somewhat close.

If the GB OL can keep the Cards' talented DL off of Favre I think Brett will shred the Cards' defensive backs. Brett will throw at least 2 TDs. I predicted 3 field goals because the Pack's redzone O has been lacking. If they can figure out how to finish drives Favre will have a BIG day.

[ahaha]

The radio says, they're gonna run. They have a young QB and they don't want him hit. So the coaches.

Coupla players (maybe ex-players) wanna pass pass pass. Saying Al aint what he used to be....


It'll be interesting to see how the reshuffled OL of the Cardinals will look.
If they look like I think they will Green Bay should be able to handle Arizona pretty easily. If the OL plays well it could be somewhat close.

Didn't they move three guys around? Maybe that will work for them, but I doubt it. Plus, they're still starting Leonard Davis. :mrgreen:

[Guiness]

Tarlam - is that an internet broadcast you're listening to? Chuck me the link if so.

[J-Rok]

Looks like Gamecenter once again for me. I can't the packer network on the radio, so I'm going to check around the internet once more. I know some other site does fan play-by-play, so that might be where I'm heading.

Go pack.

[Tarlam!]

660 seconds and counting...

[Tarlam!]

Tarlam - is that an internet broadcast you're listening to? Chuck me the link if so.

I have to pay 12 bucks a month....

[Rastak]

Tarlam - is that an internet broadcast you're listening to? Chuck me the link if so.

I have to pay 12 bucks a month....


Probably worth it I would guess.....

[Brando19]

Who won the toss??

[J-Rok]

I'm crossing my fingers, but so far, 620's site's broadcasting the game.

It's like.. twenty seconds behind though.

[Rastak]

Arizona

[Tarlam!]

Who won the toss??

The other guys.... I hate that!!

[Rastak]

Who won the toss??

The other guys.... I hate that!!


I like it, I'd rather get the ball in the second half....

[Brando19]

Man...I've gotta go to my car and listen to Sirius Satellite Radio which broadcasts every game.

[Tarlam!]

HOLD THAT BALL!!!!!!

[J-Rok]

I love listening to Wayne Larrivee.

[Tarlam!]

Who won the toss??

The other guys.... I hate that!!


I like it, I'd rather get the ball in the second half....

We only win, when we win the toss...

[J-Rok]

Haha, I'm in a jam. There's much more emotion listening to the radio broadcast, but it's so behind, whereas gamecenter's much faster, but it's so boring.

I love hearing the crowd cheer.

[Tarlam!]

Listening to the other guys is fun. They ae actually depressed!

[J-Rok]

What's going on with the run? Getting caught from behind?

[woodbuck27]

This is OUR Game ! :mrgreen:

[Rastak]

Wow, odd call on 3rd and even odder call on the fake. Get the points.

[Brando19]

WTF???? WHY DID THEY FAKE IT?!

[J-Rok]

Was that fake on purpose?

[gbgary]

that's great...give a wounded team some hope, momentum.

[Patler]

That, was stupid. GET THE FIRST SCORE IN THE GAME!!!!

[Badgepack]

Either go for it on 4th down or kick it, not a fake.

[Packnut]

I hope that was'nt the play call. Snap was high so I hope that caused it. Otherwise it was a stupid call.

[Tarlam!]

Was that fake on purpose?

Yeah, M3 was trying to capitalize on last weeks weakness.

I like it!

[Freak Out]

Ryan for -11 yards....sheesh.

[Rastak]

Wow, was that a screw up or what....they had no recievers on the fake....

[Rastak]

Man, Boldin with a flat out drop.

[gbgary]

somebody hit that punter in the face. that'll make him rethink that mask.

[Tarlam!]

Oh, ye, of little faith!!!

[J-Rok]

NO! THEY TURNED OFF MY RADIOOOOOOOOOOOOO. NOOOOOO.

[Tarlam!]

3 bucks a game......NFL.com.

[Bub]

Damn radio

[Rastak]

3 bucks a game......NFL.com.


That's a pretty fair price actually......they soak a guy for cricket games.

[Rastak]

Bears 10 49ers zip

[Badgepack]

Get Ruvell involved in the game early on.

[J-Rok]

Miree for 20 yards? What happened there? Is he a tackle breaking machine?

[Tarlam!]

..they soak a guy for cricket games.

Ribbet....

[J-Rok]

We're really moving. Are we that efficient or are they that bad?

[Brando19]

3 bucks a game......NFL.com.

To watch or listen?

[Rastak]

We're really moving. Are we that efficient or are they that bad?


Both.....Morency just had a very nice run...

[gbgary]

..they soak a guy for cricket games.

Ribbet....

lol...you mean...[sound effect]cricket[/sound effect]

[Tarlam!]

3 bucks a game......NFL.com.

To watch or listen?

Listen....

[Rastak]

Good call on the PI...

[Brando19]

I just read that the Broncos, Panthers, Jets, Saints, and BEARS are interested in Tony Gonzalez when he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.

[BENZITO]

where are all the posters today?

[gbgary]

is that 15 to go for the record?

[mmmdk]

RUN THE BALL !!!

[Rastak]

Should be 10 - 0.....but that was a pretty solid drive.

[Brando19]

TOUCHDOWN !!!

[J-Rok]

Wait, two pass interferences? Is Gamecenter telling the truth?

TD!

[mmmdk]

OK, PASS THE ROCK :lol: D.MARTIN TD

[Tarlam!]

Too eeeeaaaaasssssyyyyyy!!!!!!

[Fosco33]

:mrgreen:

[Packnut]

Packer offense should have a HUGE day against an Arizona team that is done for the season.

[Rastak]

Wait, two pass interferences? Is Gamecenter telling the truth?

TD!


yea, although you could argue the second one, the reciever ran straight into the defender who can stand his ground....first call was good.

[woodbuck27]

That's 10 TD's now this season and only 15 more to break the record. :mrgreen:

[gbgary]

i'm thinkin that's 15 to go for the td record...can somebody confirm!?

[gbgary]

thanks.......i thought so

[Tarlam!]

I'm not ready to write Leinny off yet.... :mad:

[Rastak]

Should have been PI on that, Harris got there early,...

[packrulz]

Harris on Boldin. Sweet. So far so good.

[Rastak]

Packers are blitzing quite a bit.

[J-Rok]

Leinart. 0/5.

I'm not complaining.

[BENZITO]

shit is woodson hurt?

[Rastak]

Woodson shaken up....bad throw by Leinert....

[gbgary]

woodson...acl

[woodbuck27]

Brett Favre started 2006 with 396 TD pass's and Dan Marino has the record at 420.

Favre needed 25 TD pass's to break the record. Presently he has 10 so he needs 15 more to break Marino's record.

GO Pack GO !

[packrulz]

Nice return by Bodiford. I like him. He's stoked.

[MJZiggy]

Bodiford!! Beautiful run!!

[mmmdk]

woodson...acl

Don't joke about this...what's the deal?

[PackerTimer]

bodiford show's some moves on the punt return.

[Bub]

Nice return from the new guy?

[Tarlam!]

woodson...acl

What are you saying???

[Rastak]

Bears in the red zone again......damn Bears!

[J-Rok]

Uh, that makes it Dendy vs. #2?

[Tarlam!]

Nice return from the new guy?

It'll do....

[PackerTimer]

ouch that looked painful

[Rastak]

Hyperextended kneee for Woodson ...looks like it could be serious just from the replay....looks like you'll see some Blackmon......

[gbgary]

woodson...acl

Don't joke about this...what's the deal?

you come down with your leg straight like that it'll pop an acl...i know.

[BENZITO]

very nice catch ruvell

[PackerTimer]

nice grab by martin. some of the young guys are already stepping up today.

[Sparkey]

Great hands by Martin

[packrulz]

Woodson has had a hamstring pulled a little lately, looked like he landed awkward and tweaked his knee.

[Brando19]

woodson...acl

Get outta here...don't bring that crap to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rastak]

woodson...acl

Get outta here...don't bring that crap to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Maybe he's fine....kinda looked bad on the reply....

[packrulz]

Bears are rolling 17-0 already.

[PackerTimer]

nice to see woodson up and walking around.

[gbgary]

woodson...acl

Get outta here...don't bring that crap to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey.......i hope i'm wrong!!!!!

[Rastak]

Shit, Bears 17-0 and they just got a fumble deep in 49ers territory.....

[gbgary]

nice play call

[Tarlam!]

Cards radio has Wooson out...

[PackerTimer]

D. Martin with a nice play. great to see him starting to play up to his talent level.

[packrulz]

See, David Martin has really improved, blocking well too.

[motife]

The Martin boys are AWESOME today.

[gbgary]

green's running well today so far

[Rastak]

Packers played pretty well that first quarter....

[motife]

How 'bout the Ruvell and David brothers?

[Tarlam!]

Packers played pretty well that first quarter....

You sound surprised! :twisted:

[motife]

Ahman is picking up an extra 2 or 3 yards every carry.

[gbgary]

Packers played pretty well that first quarter....

You sound surprised! :twisted:

we all are.....lol.

[Rastak]

Packers played pretty well that first quarter....

You sound surprised! :twisted:


Not at all, I put 9 on them in the pickem league...

[packrulz]

How 'bout the Ruvell and David brothers?

They're getting open, Ruvell's a big target too.

[Tarlam!]

Favre has 80 yards in the first quarter!

[motife]

Driver to the 6!

[Tarlam!]

Not at all, I put 9 on them in the pickem league...

Cheapskate.... :crazy: :cool:

[Rastak]

Not at all, I put 9 on them in the pickem league...

Cheapskate.... :crazy: :cool:


What did you put on them Tarlam?

[packrulz]

Favre has 80 yards in the first quarter!

On one of my fantasy teams I started Drew Brees instead of Favre, opps! :oops:

[billy_oliver880]

We have been playing very solid football so far. *knocks on wood*

[Fosco33]

Pack looks well connected today.

First time I'd say they're playing like a team - more from the offensive line and AG back in there. The young wideouts are showing strong hands and quick movements. TEs are making plays and Favre is being Favre - great.

Keep it up-

[motife]

I like this style of offense. All play action, utilization of tight ends, commitment to the run, all north south running.

Solid. And... for now.. it's working!

[Bub]

Is Clifton playing?

[gbgary]

woo hoo

[wpony]

lets just hope packers just play a complete game like this not 3 quarters or 2 quarters this is fun to watch lol even the dog has not left the room yet touch down yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[motife]

Favre is playing a good game. lots of different types of velocity on his throws.

AHMAN! TD!

[Fosco33]

Congrats to AG for his 50th TD.

:mrgreen:

[PackerTimer]

green is running like it's 2004. good burst, and picking up exta yards.

[packrulz]

TD Ahman!

[BENZITO]

we better not let off the gas petal

[billy_oliver880]

YES!!

[Tarlam!]

What did you put on them Tarlam?


13. I didn't wanna jinx 'em! :lol:

[Rastak]

It should be interesting to see who's in the secondary when the Cards take the field....

[packrulz]

Packers looking all pro against the Cards.

[Guiness]

I like Arizona's passing stats after the first quarter:

RECEIVING
REC YDS TD LG

That's it 8-) Leinhart is 0/6

[Fosco33]

we better not let off the gas petal

Push it threw the floor

[Rastak]

Freakin Bears 24-0 and in the red zone again....

[Fosco33]

Chicago is up 24-0. Glad I took them to cover 16.5.

[motife]

lots of different types of velocity on Favre's throws.

perfect offense for him at this stage of his career.

he's got to be feeling good today.

[RIPackerFan]

Improvement every game - this is what I like to see.

[packrulz]

What did you put on them Tarlam?


13. I didn't wanna jinx 'em! :lol:

I only put 2 on the Pack, I wasn't sure what to expect.

[Tarlam!]

Freakin Bears 24-0 and in the red zone again....

That's my 14 points your slamming.... :lol:

[BENZITO]

woodsons back :)

[Fosco33]

lots of different types of velocity on Favre's throws.

perfect offense for him at this stage of his career.

he's got to be feeling good today.

Imagine if GJ was in there too.

[PackerTimer]

woodson back in

[Fosco33]

woodsons back :)

Good

[gbgary]

woodson's back.......great!! i was WRONG!!

[packrulz]

woodson's back.......great!! i was WRONG!!

I assume they're just being cautious with him since he's been hurting but hey, he keeps playing.

[motife]

woodson's back.......great!! i was WRONG!!

I assume they're just being cautious with him since he's been hurting but hey, he keeps playing.

I'm glad someone on this board knows how to spell "cautious".

[Rastak]

Cards should try a little play action and some screens...GB is blitzing like crazy.....

[motife]

geezus....

a lot of drops by the Card WR's.

[GrnBay007]

Hi all, just got back from the lil bears game.
Can't get the game so don't leave out any good details on here!!!! :D

[BENZITO]

sack!!!

[PackerTimer]

NICE

[packrulz]

Gang sack! Love it!

[billy_oliver880]

Cards should try a little play action and some screens...GB is blitzing like crazy.....

They FINALLY got to him. It wasn't working till now.

[gbgary]

DOG PILE

[motife]

awesome blitz

[Rastak]

Good game plan by GB....Cards OL really really sucks.

[Tarlam!]

Hi all, just got back from the lil bears game.
Can't get the game so don't leave out any good details on here!!!! :D

Who won??

[packrulz]

I love the Packs o-line compared to the Cards, they really blow.

[Bub]

Is Clifton Colege playing LT?

[GrnBay007]

Hi all, just got back from the lil bears game.
Can't get the game so don't leave out any good details on here!!!! :D

Who won??

lil bears lost :sad: broncos won and they finished up the season 8-0. It was a close game though 13-6.

[Tarlam!]

Is Clifton Colege playing LT?

14-nuthin. What?

[Lurker64]

Cards should try a little play action and some screens...GB is blitzing like crazy.....

They FINALLY got to him. It wasn't working till now.

Well, Leinart was 1/8 and the Cardinals were scoreless, so at least it's not the "Slowik School" of blitzing not working.

[BENZITO]

that was ugly

[billy_oliver880]

Oh jebisus!

[billy_oliver880]

OK I was wrong.

[Tarlam!]

broncos won and they finished up the season 8-0.

Coaches must be real pigs!

[Fosco33]

Good call

[Rastak]

That was PI...should have been offsetting....Manuel looks really shaky in coverage....

[packrulz]

Woodson returned the punt.

[billy_oliver880]

That was PI...should have been offsetting....Manuel looks really shaky in coverage....

Thats what I thought the call was. :?

[Rastak]

That was PI...should have been offsetting....Manuel looks really shaky in coverage....

Thats what I thought the call was. :?


They should have called it he had his back to the play and hit the reciever.....

[motife]

horrible block by Bubba Franks on the fake FG. a whiff.

[PackerTimer]

morency with a big run
