The Official Packers @ Jets Gameday Thread

[gbgary]

Great game by the Packers today...got fortunate several times on favorable calls from the zebras, but we were due after being screwed over a couple times previously this year. It all does usually balance out in the end.

The Jets really had to be disappointing to their fans today. 2 weeks to prepare, and they laid a massive goose egg on the scoreboard in their own crib. The fake punt was a very strange call in that position so early in the game. The Jets dropped more passes than we did, which is saying something at this point.

That we were able to do this and give guys like Pickett another week of rest is huge. If we can hold off the Cowboys and get a few more bodies back to 100% during the bye week, this team has a reasonable shot at winning the division.

If you are referring to the 2 INT. Then your wrong the refs got it right.

They explained it during the broadcast.

It is just like a normal reception where the receiver has to maintain possession through the entire catch. In cases with simultaneous possession the same rule applies. If the ball comes out in that process, and the defender maintains possession, it is then an INT. In both cases the ball was yanked out before the process was completed. If the receiver and defender both maintain control through the catch, the tie goes to the receiver.

yup. when simultaneous possession occurs, whoever comes up with it gets it. happened twice yesterday. i love the heart the Packers have shown this season. not a give-up bone in anyone's body.

Someone needs to remind Jones to put stickum on his hands EVERY game. Not just every other.

Maybe he could use that adhesive spray they use before taping ankles.

I thought both calls were correct--especially the Tramon interception. You could see the Tramon had the ball before the receiver hit the ground.

This was a good Game Day look for Cullen!
