2010 Opener: The Official Packers -v- Eagles Game Thread

[pbmax]

Packers will lose by two, 30-28, to start the season 0-1, throwing the Packers nation into a frenzy of despair. The defeat largely will be the result of poor ST play, primarily on the kickoff team, but field position will be lost in punting do to the net results of allowing longer returns while generating no long returns. Shields, Burnett and Williams will be victimized in the passing game as the Packers will fail to generate pressure on the QB. Offensively, the Packers will struggle to protect Rodgers, allowing 2 sacks. Finley and Grant will be non-factors. Colledge will begin his annual Jekyl/Hyde performance, leading to his replacement in the starting lineup by game #6.

Do you have any idea what would have happened to the game thread if I had posted this?

Trick question. This post would seem like praise coming from you.

quoting it is close enough.....you suck!!!

What is there to hate? Rodgers is like maybe one of the top 15 QBs in the league. Maybe one day TT will find a true stud at the position. He just doesn't have "it." Oh, and he gets sacked instead of throwing interceptions.

Doesn't use the middle of the field. He's as good as he's gonna get. Bust.

Al he does is checkdown. He has no stones/arm/heart. All he cares about is his completion percentage. He's a numbers guy.

Yeah, and he holds the damn ball too long and makes the line look bad.

I didn't realize the game thread was such a sacred thing. . . I'm on a quick break at work. I'll change it when I get home to something more appropriate and leave the game thread sanctity in tact.

I was selfishly trying to steal the game thread glory, haha. This will be a, "week of the game" thread or something like that.

Don't do that!!! The thread is started. If you kill it and start another one things will really be FUBAR.

Do you have any idea what happens if you cross the streams (could someone more tech saavy than myself please insert a ghostbustes picture).

Isn't this more like it?

You just depressed me. And the game is still days away.

I agree - whats done is done. Who knows? Maybe this will work out in our favor.

And JH - it's Packer football, everything surrounding the game is a sacred thing.

You can't really take what he said serious, the dude said Finley will be a non-factor.

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

If the offense doesn't come out stumbling and turning the ball over, we will win. The eagles are going to score, I would say between 24-30 points. We have to out score them, its that simple.

Mike Neal status is uncertain:

(What happened to Mike Neal?)
Mike Neal had a strain of his abdomen yesterday, right at the end of practice. We were watching him today. He went through treatment, and we’ll see where he is in the morning.

Guess Harrell's gonna have to pick up the slack again.

They'll be broadcasting the game on my cable provider. That's great! I just hope Aikman isn't commentating. For some reason I really dislike his game calling.

I think he stalks us, just to torture us.
