  • Win Ugly

    seems to be the moto of this team this year and last. we look ugly as hell playing, but we still keep winning

    sure would be nice to have some more blowouts so us fans don't have to be shitting ourselves every weekend

    Can't win the close ones. Can't blow anybody out. How the hell has this team won 13 in a row?
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      I'm all for a good, boring blowout domination.

        You never told me that honey!

        After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

            Makes sense considering all the injuries, Collins, Burnett, TWill, Clifton, & Bulaga to name a few. It's pretty remarkable the Pack can keep on rollin', but an all pro QB helps a lot.
            Thanks Ted!

              Packers are winning games by an average of 13 PPG. Best in the league. That ain't ugly.

              You want ugly? Cleveland beat Seattle 6-3 today. Now that's ugly.

                So our kicking teams are amazing, but I always fear our returns. We give up tremendous yards and are susceptible to the big play. We dominate for a time then let teams back by not going for the jugular. That is why we win dirty. This eam feels like the only way it can loose is to itself, it is an amazing collection of talent and scheme.
                We are 7-0 but rarely do I feel confident for the first 10 minutes and the last 10. I am confused about the pack.
                All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

                  I'm the opposite. I rarely feel we will lose. Even when we were down to the Falcons and today to the Vikings, I had complete confidence we would come back.

                    Upnorth is confused because expectations are too high. Winning 13 straight makes people forget how tough it is to win in the NFL. What the Packers are doing is amazing.

                    The Packers haven't played as well as they potentially can, which is another way of saying they haven't peaked yet. That is a good thing, because you don't win the Super Bowl by playing your best football in September and October.

                      Actually, it's because it's so tough to win in the NFL that I get panicky when I see the D struggle. I want them to dominate in all phases so I don't have to worry about it.

                        That's what is so exciting! We aren't playing as well as we are able to and we're still winning. I hope this bye week will give some of the fellas a chance to lick their wounds. Maybe getting some of our ailing defenders back on the field will help our defense the rest of this season.

                          I just want consistency. We go up, we go down. MM play calling takes the foot of the gas and lets other teams back in. The Vikings are not in our league but yet were in a position to comeback on us, even when we scored 33 points. The 49ers shut us down in the second half. Atlanta was up 14 on us before we woke up. It took until the last half of the 4th quarter for our d to shut down newton.
                          For a 7-0 team we have flaws. For a record setting team we have flaws. I want McCarthy to bring this team out of the locker room switched on in the first half, not just the second half.
                          Just to restate it I think this is a great great team which just set a historical record.
