OFFICIAL GREEN BAY PACKERS vs. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES GAME DAY THREAD

[Bretsky]

Sorry guys.....my daughter had a swim meet this morning at 7:00 AM and then we went to church to pray for the Packers.

My Ironclad prediction is to follow

[CaptainKickass]

obligatory game day post

[pbmax]

Pfft, priorities.

Here are your captains. I think Mason Crosby is the emergency linebacker.

[mmmdk]

....so how do we beat the Falcons?

bout fucking time

i had to start drinking before the thread was even up

So Crosby is taller than Jennings, Bush, and Hawk or is he standing on a riser?

[denverYooper]

Whew.

So Crosby is taller than Jennings, Bush, and Hawk or is he standing on a riser?

It's an optical illusion. The eyebrows make him seem taller.

Last week on the Packers.com blog, the inactives hit at 1:50 PM for a 3:15 game. So should they hit today at about 2:00 PM today?

Bush has got to step it up and get a jacket that fits. What else is he spending the money on?

[CaptainKickass]

That was close

[denverYooper]

Bush has got to step it up and get a jacket that fits. What else is he spending the money on?

His Talking Heads collection.

my hope is that MM has been hiding starks and keep his secret weapon for the playoffs.

so i would pray we she a heavy does out of him today

[mmmdk]

Who do we play in the NFC Championship game: Bears or Seahawks?

I say Bears!

[Bretsky]

so we made the playoffs; let's get ready to rock.

What always occurs to this team right when everybody starts feeling good about the Green Bay Packers ? Time to get your dreams ready to shatter.

You've been hearing all the whispers............most dangerous team in the NFC.......most explosing......biggest threat....yadayadayada

Nevertheless, this game is probably going to be a barnburner. Da Pack looked great against Phily weak one.....UNTIL....VICK da GREAT (quoting a PR legend) came into the game

Wake up boyz...we're going to see a lot of the same thing today again.

On defense, we're just simply not fast enough to contain Vick within the pocket on a consistent basis. I don't buy we're getting a healthy Cullen Jenkins back but if he is that should help. But Vick da Great is going to break our contain and when we cheat up he'll expose us in the secondary by hitting Maclin or Jackson deep. You can also count on Andy Reid, one of the top five coaches in the NFL, to devise some schemes to get Slim Shady McCoy in open space and/or with LB's trying to cover him. This is a classic matchup; Reid vs the Dominator. Dominator will do well to keep Phily under 24 pts............if that's the spread I'd still bet the over

On offense, to be honest, Rodgers should really have his way with these guys. Asante Samuels, one of the top CB's in the NFL, has been playing hurt for a long time now and can be exposed in his current state. The rest of that secondary can be had. Knowing this, McDermott is going to bring the house and do it often..........even though he knows Rodgers is one of the best in the game vs. the Blitz. We're not going to be able to run..........but newsflash.......we suck there and MM knows it. So AROD will probably throw around forty times today and have a stellar game. Jennings should be huge, and Jones, Driver and Nelson will have opportunites.

Truth be told, Vegas has this one right. It's an even game. They give three pts to the home team and Phily is favored by 2.5pts.

So what does this one come down to ? Close Game.......................ssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Special Teams, turnovers, and Coaching.......and the Eagles have the edge there

Akers is one of the best in the business.........a tad bit better than Crosby.......but we've still got Slouch Slocum and they still have DESEAN "I sure am happy to drafted Jordy Nelson
ahead of you" JACKSON

Expect our coverage units to get roasted one to two times
Expect a near flawlessly coached game by Reid with some PR stallions questioning the run abondonment of MM
and expect a turnover or two that along with the above points ends the Packers season

PHILY 34
PACK 33................Crosby nails four field goals
