Packers-Bengals OFFICIAL game thread

Now we get to see Brohm run the 52 second drill.

If he can manage anything out of all of this I'll be impressed. 2:00 drills have not been his strong suit in practice.

These Favre signs are ridiculous.

This thread is about the game. Saving your bitching for one of the 1000 crying threads.

I thought Rodgers looked good today. Packers starting defense was solid as hell. Hate me all you want but Rodgers looked like Tarvaris Jackson at least in game one.

As long as Rodgers doesn't look like Tavarius Jackson once the season starts

At least I spelled your guys name right!

How about T-Jack instead? Here's me hoping he follows T-Buck :P

[Bretsky]

cornholios gotta go

yes, he's terrible and he can't go a few minutes without bringing our ex QB up

I have a greater distaste for him than Theisman and Dennis Miller combined

[Iron Mike]

That looked pretty good.

I kinda like Brohm's delivery better that Rodgers. Better placement.

Hooray! Jordy!

you should be on ESPN.

It's good now that MM's getting laid again!

I'd have to think we sign a veteran sometime before week 1. We can't leave it up to Brohm. He's clearly not ready. Is CulPepp still out there??

ok, the coaching staff is concentrating on their new starter, it's this guy's first live NFL action, he's thrown the ball 6 times and you're panicking?

I don't think my post indicated me panicking. Are you comfortable with a 1st year guy as the #2 behind Arod? Common sense tells you they need a veteran backing him up until Brohm has some time under his belt.

I dunno, they can always pry some old guy off the couch if they need to. What week did Vinny show up to play last year?

First half assessment:

Rodgers looked pretty good. His stats would've been better if Francies would have caught that pass and if Jones was another step ahead on the long bomb.

Jackson looks good. We might have a good 1-2 combo at RB.

Driver is his dependable self, but the other recivers need to step up a little. Was Jennings out there?

[Chevelle2]

We aren't going far with Brohm or Vinny so why not let the kid gain experience?

[boiga]

Was Jennings out there?

No, he was held out.

The following Packers players will not play in tonight's game:
21 CB Charles Woodson
25 RB Ryan Grant
26 S Charlie Peprah
31 CB Al Harris
55 LB Desmond Bishop
63 C Scott Wells
69 T Orrin Thompson
79 DT Ryan Pickett
85 WR Greg Jennings
91 DT Justin Harrell
94 DE Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila
97 DT Johnny Jolly

Four DT's out by injury would explain our porous run D.

what in hades are you talking about?

If Rodgers misses extensive time, are we going to the SB with Brohm? NO.

If Rodgers misses extensive time, are we going to the SB with some Vet? NO.

So, it would benefit us to play Brohm, because at least he gets experience, something he wouldn't get if a washed up vet started.
