Packers Cards Live game thread

[Rastak]

Well, we're in an intermission here and I'd like to say I'm happy with what gone on but I can't. You guys are putting up some serious beatdowns in preseason....yikes.....


1) I hereby declare I am worried.
2) I declare you preseason champs.

Number 2 is just downright mean Ras. You know that from experience

That's true but I was serious about #1.

Vegas: Young was 12-8 as as starter in five years with a QB rating around 100 with the Niners before taking over. He had 7 years in the league and played most of his ball for a horrible Tampa team. San Fran knew what they had in Young and were perfectly comfortable letting Montana go. They knew way more about Young than the Pack knew about Rodgers. Young was completely established as a very good starter in the NFL before Montana left.

The USFL was a better training ground than any other pro or semi pro league that has followed it. The Browns pulled Mike Johnson (Pro Bowl LB), Kevin Mack (Pro Bowl RB) and Frank Minnfield (near Pro Bowl corner) out of that league.

Young's reviews were mixed and most of the discussion centered around if a team could keep him in the pocket and read a defense. He was smart, but it hadn't been his MO. Course, with the Bucs, he often was running for his life.

Montana was hurt often enough after Young arrived that Young was a known commodity by the time they let Joe Cool go.

OH! Elbow to the head! That's gotta hurt!

Yeah, on the deep ball it almost looks like he lifts it high during his motion forward.

But that throw was on target. Jake Allen was covered though.

All of these 3rd down conversions, playing with mostly 2nd string D... feels like the lean times of ought-eight.

[pittstang5]

This is irritating! They should not be converting 3rd and 13's. 3rd and 11's......I know it's preseason and 2nd string...but to work so hard on 1st and 2nd down, then to give it all up.

When did Bedard become so annoying?

Two days after his birth, his mother began her frustrations when she couldn't get him to stop whining.

It's been bad ever since.

Uh?
