Inter-members Discourse Inspired by Activities on Thanksgiving Day

[woodbuck27]

Over react much?

what you should say is 57 out of 60 drafted by TT, because injuries certainly hurt this team. I said before the season started that losing Bulaga was a huge blow. I had such high hopes of Bulaga/Sherrod manning the edges when TC started. Take that away and replace with rookie 4th and undrafted FA and it changes things. Now break Cobbs leg. hurt Barclay, Take JJones away for stretches and break ARods collarbone and its not ever going to be pretty.

Coming into next TC we could be looking at an OL of Sherrod, Sitton, Tretter, Lang, Bulaga with Bach as top backup. A new DC and we will all be pissing red from the cherry kool aid we are guzzling. And just imagine if a safety emerges and we draft an ILB.

Good morning /Day bobblehead:

I awoke early this morning and went straight to Packers.Com and began to review the BLOG there from just after the Packers victory over the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field this season. That was a completely different Packer team/relatively healthy roster... back then. We did suffer some loss's out of that game ie Francois .... and after that it just got worse.

Injuries have crippled this team with the BIG BLOW >>> Aaron Rodgers.

We know why he gets paid the $ BIG MONEY$; the fact he's the Packers MVP (demonstrated clearly) when he's not playing (or injured).

Your suggestions and focus for this coming off season work for me.

Packer DC Dom Capers might serve himself best by announcing that he'll be leaving the Green Bay Packers at the conclusion of this season. He won't go there because like us he's on an Aaron Rodgers watch. As Packer fans we're aware where the weakness's are as a result of AR's absence. As fans we must accept that any changes in terms of coaching and the roster, will be as always, in the capable hands of Packer GM Ted Thompson.

Your point bobblehead.... beginning early this season. RE: the loss of Bryan Bulaga and the Derrick Sherrod situation (he finally saw the field yesterday in that loss to the LIONS) is accurate in terms of it's immense detriment to the Green Bay Packers overall success in terms of the Offensive Line. We know what 'deadwood' must be removed and have certain optimism for a solid OL in the future.

I agree with you here. To understand why the Packers are where they are now we merely must reflect on the status of these players this season:

a) Randall Cobb

b) Clay Matthews III

c) James Jones

d) Tracy Hayward

That list as we know .... goes on... and on.

Before I went to bed last night I took stock of it all and I realized this:

It will be OK.

This morning I can end my post in the usual way:

GO PACK GO !

[woodbuck27]

He can't be mad at GB for cutting him, he couldn't hold onto the fucking ball. Thats on him.

My position on former Green Bay Packer J. Ross is that he had a solid game yesterday. I'm merely a Packer fan and have zero control over who is retained on the roster or not.

I have no idea 'specifically' what he feels about being cut by the Packers. If his reaction is available online I've never researched that.

As a long time Pro sports fan I'm well aware of this:

The normal reaction of a Pro is to want to make the former team somehow regret that. Both sides know the scoop on this.

PACKERS !

[woodbuck27]

It's very difficult to gauge the ability of a player when they have gone against a Slocum ST.

Certainly ... I agree.

[woodbuck27]

I thought Pickett looked good before his knee went to hell.

We may be seeing the last of Ryan Pickett. He's been a good Green bay Packer.

Go PACKERS !

[denverYooper]

In other news. I held out hope that Perry would put some spine in the run defense and he had a couple of forces., but the D line is just giving up away too much room.

And when the LBs do come in free, they either miss tackles or get dragged for yardage.

Pickett is having horrible year on the nose. His injury is bad or he is done.

He looked a lot better before the Bears game. After he injured his knee, he lost his ability to anchor as well.

[woodbuck27]

The last word....

A) '30' unanswered Lions points.

B) With approx. 4 minutes remaining in the 4th Qtr. The Lions had out scored the Packers by a ratio of 10:1.

C) The Lions more than doubled the Packers’ time of possession. LIONS: 40:26 and PACKERS: 19:34

D) The Lions’ rushed for 241 yards. The Packers rushed for Dear Lord....24 Yards. There's that 10:1 ratio again.

So today we get...

Detroit Lions (7-5-0)

Green Bay Packers (5-6-1)

Playoff's!? Is it over?

NO !

Roland 'the Gunslinger' exhausted and mortally wounded continues to trek north along the beach .... falling ...he crawls. He continues his quest for 'the Dark Tower'.


GO PACK GO !

[denverYooper]

Look at Woodbuck holding down the fort.

Nice Dark Tower reference, BTW. That's a series I need to re-read.

This is a bit of a cry for help, but dept............

Did anyone see how Sherrod did at RT yesterday?

By that point in the game, I couldn't really watch anymore.

Too disgusted, nauseated, etc.

I left for turkey at a friends house and deleted my recording before I left. I hadn't even realized he finally got in the game, and now I'm mad at myself.

i've heard from some places that he looked like crap, and other places say he played well. by that point in the game i had lost all interest so i have no clue how he really played

the fact that the coaches have been saying how great he looks, but the reality that he still can't beat out newhouse who has been horrible is a bit confusing to me

[KYPack]

Thanks, boys.

I'm glad nobody else was watching either.

Now, we'll never know how he did.

You can't believe our coaches or the reporters at this point.

Earlier in thread, PB had this to say about Sherrod.

Last two series, he came in after Lane Taylor replaced Newhouse at guard after Newhouse gave up the safety.

Sherrod looked assignment sure and had two good pass block sets. He got to the second level on a LB for a run to the right but someone broke free and killed the play before the rb got to the hole.

Profootball focus had him playing 6 snaps and an average performance (-0.3) and allowing a hurry.

Ahh you and PFF. Taking every advantage Eh!?

The Pro Pickem.


PFF is a solid resource.

All the same:

I've got the game recorded in it's excruciating entirety.

I'll study Sherrod's performance and report back on what I see possibly on Saturday.

PFF and rating the Vikings performance hasn't been a fun read this season. I think they have Chad Greenway as one of the worst linebackers in the league.
