Heroes & Goats

[red]

Heros:

Mike McCarthy. Out-coached one of the best offensive minds in the game. Once again had a flawless game plan, for the most part the offense did whatever it wanted.
Jarius Wynn. Sandbagging SOB. He looks like a different player now that the games count. A year ago we were using TJ Lang instead of him for goal line stuff, it appears he's turned a weakness into a strength.
Raji/Pickett. If those Saints guards can't move them than no mortal man will.
Starks. HH's dark rituals seem to have paid off. He's got really nice vision.
Jennings/Finley. These two guys are the difference between our O and the Saints O.
Rodgers. Some might say that of all the players in the NFL, he is the most valuable. He will probably win awards for being good.
Sitton was a crushing block for us last night.
Clifton. I don't know if its just because Lang was next to him but Clifton had his best game as a run blocker in a long time.
Scott Wells has been playing at Collinsworth-pants-creaming level for a while now.
Jarrett Bush might have had the best game of everybody in the secondary for what that's worth.
Randal Cobb is better at football than he is at listening.
Moneyball and that fighting robot movie. I kind of want to see both after seeing the previews.

Goats:
The secondary. I'm not super worried or anything, they are the best secondary in the NFL but Drew Breez can make anyone look like a Goat on a good day.
Mathsay. Consider this a warning you practice star bastard.
Everyone who tired to tackle Pierre Thomas. Partially because its embarrassing and bad but also because some asshole at Madden saw it and is now justified for having that situation appear in the game all the time.

i really hope the slippery field on the southern end had something to do with the secondary looking so bad. they also had a couple of chances for int's, they need to come up with those when you get the chance against brees

So I think that on the D that everyone played well at times, but outside of Raji, Pickett and burnett, no one played up to there ability for the whole game. If they dont gel and play whole games it will be a short post season if we make it. Collins new role may have thrown him, but that is just excuses. Shields look ok, but missed some important things. The LB's as a whole would have played a C- game. They Saints are a top 5 offence, put to come down to the last play when we scored 42 is a red flag to me.

where the hell has jarious wynn been hiding this whole time?

he looked like a monster out there. i never expected that kind of performance out of him

[mraynrand]

The Falcons and the Chargers are the next toughest offensive teams the Packers will have to play. Maybe Tampa if they can put it together. We won't face San Diego in the playoff until the Superbowl. I have a hard time believing the Packer defense won't look a lot better going forward, and will only struggle against a handful of teams. I'm pretty sure ATL and NO don't see the Packers as an 'easy out' in the playoffs.

Cobb needs to leave that God stuff out of it...I mean I believe an all, but I hate when guys use it like he did about the return TD. He should have just kept it to explaining how he messed up haha Thats good stuff. esp about the route he got wrong and still scored.

He gets a partial goat for his post game God comments!

Goat status because he mentioned God? Remind me not to stand next to you anytime soon..

If God actually talks to Randall Cobb, I'm glad we have him on our team.

I dunno about that. What if God has money on the Bears?

Everybody needs a god of some sort, P4G.

If God tells Cobb to run 8 more kicks back for TDs this season and he does. I'm happy.

Speaking of Cobb's TD return did any of you notice how fast Pat Lee is?? He came up from behind Cobb and escorted him into the end zone!

My earlier post contained my admittedly fan-ish observations. I do want to clarify: I'm not suggesting Jones is as good as gone, or useless, or any of that. I was just quite surprised I didn't see him more.

I also want to say Greg Jennings is frickin' incredible. That dude could catch a 90 mph medicine ball thrown away from his body while a thug points a gun at Jennings's head and a hot stripper plays with his thang and the fog rolls in from the bay.

As for my earlier ranting about firing Slocum, well, I'll get that cleaned up this week.

i was wondering about this, is lee really fast, or does cobb not have a top gear?

there were a lot of guys from both teams running with him on that play.

the good thing is he can go from zero to full speed in like 1 step, and not slow down while cutting, but he might not have that top gear

like barry sanders
