OFFICIAL Packers @ Rams game thread

[Fosco33]

Detroit fans are going nuts. I'm really happy for them. That city needs a win!

21 months?

OMFG he did it

Yes that receiver made a spectacular catch.

Way to give zero credit to the gunslinger... 3-0. Wish we had a guy with Moxy to ignite a team like Favre.

No way do I see us beating them next week. Sad.

maybe we could give rodgers his own locker room and let him skip training camp?

Relevance? I don't see what your point is. Roger Clements does the same thing...

THEE FAVRE!!!!!!!!!! SAWEET!!!!!!!

BRETT LORENZO FAVRE

[Tyrone Bigguns]

Aaron Rodgers QB
13-23, 269 yds 2 TDs
6 Rush, 40 yds, 1 TD


Another lackluster performance by a middle of the road QB who makes poor decisions.

It was a solid enough performance as a sum of parts, but there are still things to be concerned about:

1. Deep ball
a. This is Rodgers best pass yet he cannot seem to hit it during the season as he looks off.

2. Hits
a. Rodgers has been hit a lot so far this year and is risking injury by holding onto the ball too long.
b. Rodgers needs to throw the ball away more. Today was better as we had fewer sacks.

3. Decisions
a. Always going deep instead of taking the short passes and what the D gives him.

4. Third down
a. At one point in the game they were 1 for 8 on third down. This falls on the QB and play calling.

5. Play calling (not Rodgers)
a. The playcalling is not setting Rodgers up for success. Still too many long dropbacks and not enough short passes

6. Quality of passes
a. Catchability? Still too many drops. Is this on Rodgers? Not entirely.


Good performance, sure, but again he started out very shaky. This game could have been a lot different if the Rams didn't suck so much. The O did very little to capitalize on opportunities in the first half.

That kind of performance won't win you games against elite teams. I don't think they will win against the Vikes unless they play a lot better on third down and make some plays early.

Curious to see what some of you think about this post.

Pack won the game big but still looked shakey to me. I addressed the QB problems here. I will address the others in another post I think.

Can't wait.

had to bump your own attempt to get under everyone's skin, since it didn't attract enough attention the first time? lol

It is a well-thought out articulate post. It presents many of the problems with the QB play. There are still a ton of questions.

ol' #4 still has some magic

[woodbuck27]

Just to update y'aal.

Vikings 27 - San Fran 24

G.Lewis 32 yd. pass from B.Favre (R.Longwell kick is good) Drive: 10 plays, 80 yards in 1:27

BRETT FAVRE does it again with 2 seconds on the clock!! THE LENGEND CONTINUES. with his 40th forth quarter comeback.

What a drive and a fantastic 32 yard TD pass to the back of the end zone.

I hope y'all saw it. He's still has it.

[Fosco33]

San Fran 24 - Minnesota 20 with 8:12 remain. in 4th Qtr.

What could that mean?

It means the Vikings will come back and win..

Crazy... but can Brent play like this after week 11?

Unlucky for the Pack that we get him midseason.

Anybody else anxious to see how Cinci does against Pitt?

[imscott72]

ol' #4 still has some magic

I don't know about you guys, but the emotions of him leaving are all coming back again. Why couldn't they work it out? I'm fucking pissed at TT right now..

[Tyrone Bigguns]

ol' #4 still has some magic

Yes he does.

But, ty thinks we can all see the beginning of the trend. The vikes finally played a decent team...and they had to go to the wire to pull it out.

doesn't bode well for them.

That kind of magic isn't reliable...and won't happen against a good team...like Steelers or Ravens.

Fvare was 6-10 on that drive too...BOOM

Never bought into him not performing late year

He no longer excels in the frosty cold/bad weather

He no longer performs when he is injured

MN was the perfect gig for him; 13 of 16 good weather games

If he stays healthy he'll do well IMO
