OFFICIAL GREEN BAY PACKERS vs. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES GAME DAY THREAD

[Bretsky]

bout fucking time

i had to start drinking before the thread was even up

LMOA; have you even stopped from last night yet ??

[mmmdk]

Hey Bretsky, you need to look past the Eagles and Falcons, the Stubby way, these games are already in the Packer lore books. Then Bears and...hmm Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

[BlueBrewer]

Vegas is down to Eagles -1 Everybody thinks GB wins, which is why I am scared to death.

i took a few hour break

i look at the first game a bit different. everyone says if vick would have played the whole game we would have lost. i say DOm had a game plan to deal with Kolb, a pocket QB and no threat to take off and run. if we knew we were going to face vick, then our whole defensive gameplan would have been much different.

and plus we lost grant in the second quarter of that game, messing up anything we were planning on offense.

things might be different with proper planning

[Scott Campbell]

............... and then we went to church to pray for the Packers.

What did God say? Or was he at Hooters already - watching the pregame?

Don't be afraid. Be calm. Coach said: "We win!". Pretty ballsy if we do.

God? Who's she?

[BlueBrewer]

Coach=MM?

[mmmdk]

Coach=MM?

Yup! Read it on JSO.

So he is predicting a W? I like it. Time to cowboy up and roast some eagle. They're off the endangered list now anyway.

Stubby went as far as talking Falcons game. At first I thought he was nuts...but today I feel differently about it. I've been stabbing & poking at McCarthy for some time but it's about time that I was wrong about something/anything...'cos I'm always right! Such a burden.

Beating a good team twice on their home field is next to impossible...

But after watching the Seahawks dominate the Saints - anything is possible.

In order to win:
1. Win turnover battle - I think we'll get one INT and force a fumble
2. Spy Vick - maybe Walden/Woodson?
3. Put pressure on Vick and force some early throws
4. Play with high tempo and energy
5. Play to win (not to not lose)

My bold prediction-

Pack 31
Eagles 23

Eagles get early lead, then Packers roll

I like it Fosco, I'm with ya!

Go Pack Go!!!

[Patler]

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.

...and what stopped you from starting the thread BEFORE you went to the swim meet???

Come on, this is the playoffs. Preparation, preparation, PREPARATION ! !
You have to be thinking ahead.
Know your responsibilities. Perform your responsibilities!

I noticed you were posting last evening until nearly 11:00 pm. How difficult would it have been to wait until after midnight and start the official game day thread? Or, rising just a few minutes earlier would have done the trick.

I sincerely hope The Packers can overcome your lack of preparation, although I sense your concern in your prediction thread!

Today is Bart Starr's 77 birthday. Hoping the Pack can give the old man a happy one!
