Let's see...Bush gets burned....two penalties within the first five minutes, one of special teams, six pass plays in a row....

This sounds pretty familiar, doesn't it?

This is the Packers at their worst...MM at his worst....

Wide open

Did M3 leave the running playbook in GB?

After AR's been creamed 3 times, you think we'd either bring some more protection or run the fricken ball - once.

they're not going to run against that blitz that's come on every play.

[Fosco33]

Guess 6 straight passes is M3's idea of balanced offense.

Yes. Horrible idea.

WTF-worthy.

And next drive he'll run it 3 straight times. And this is the SCRIPTED offense.

somebody f'd up. dang

Bush...

Just curious as I missed the first few plays

Are we fielding a "starting lineup" that Bush is a part of ?

man...i know its early. but this game has a feel of a blowout. hope i'm wrong. we should beat a team that can't beat the F'n Browns, chiefs, and bears.

ok, let's stay close in Quarter one, weather the storm, and get it together

Easy - run it outside as they're coming up the middle. Or try a fricken screen.

Man, what a bunch of emotional basket cases. Hopefully the players are more level headed than posters.

Jenkins arm tackled Ben and missed the sack.

[Bretsky]

let's get a few first downs here

[packer4life]

still waiting for that packers-steelers video broadcast link fellas...anyone got a good link for me?

[Fosco33]

Gotta give ARod major props for holding up this long with all the hits he's taken this season.

Oh, we'll certainly see their(Pit) best shot early. We just have to see how resilient the Packers are. I'm just praying for an injury-free game.

I think a few screens or a quick swing pass in the flat would help counter those blitzs. And if grant don't want to pick up the blitz, we have a back who is pretty good at it behind him.

I'd like to see some quick hits over the middle behind those blitzs too. bust finley on a slant off the line.

They have a bad protection call for that blitz. The center or GUard picks up neither. That leaves one guy for teh RB and one for Rodgers. At that point its a race to throw to the open short middle (Finley) or get killed. He has been killed twice, both helmet to helmet hits. One was a completion to Finley.
