  • Official Packers vs. Falcons Game Day Thread

    Game Time temperature of 13 with wind chill of 4 expected. Snow should be done by then.

    If the packers van steal this one, maybe Rodgers becomes a factor yet. Don't feel good about this one though. Falcons have a poor pass defense, but I don't know if the Packers can exploit that weakness.

      IT looks like Steven Jackson is starting to heat up. And with the Packers' famous "Sieve" defense, I don't see how this team can win today.

      Falcons will load eleven in the box and dare Flynn to complete a single pass.

      Sigh. I've lost faith in this team, altogether. They suck right now.

      If they win today, give MM some credit. This team is listing badly. And alot of that's on him. They haven't played for shit since Rodgers went down.

        I believe many were clamoring to sign Stephen Jackson last offseason. I put that up there with drafting Mcmillan, but one didn't cost millions.

          The Falcons are one team with a worse defense than the Packers, and they've been horrendous against the run. At this point in their respective careers, Lacy > SJax. This is one game where the Packers can potentially control the ground game. The Falcons do have a better QB (having a pretty mediocre year) but their OL has been pretty bad. Hopefully GB at home, with a bit of help from the weather, can nullify Atlanta's QB advantage.

                  So Packers actually have their starting OL if EDS can stay in there. It's when he comes out that things get ugly.

                    I'm keeping my eye on EDS playing on a bad ankle. I'd be more in favor of using him as emergency backup. But unfortunately I don't have the final say, will hope for the best.

                      So, will this be a smaller crowd today? Or will the fans who normally don't have access to affordable tickets take advantage of low prices despite the weather and state of the team?

                        Greg Punzo's twitter account and http://feed2all.eu are most likely committing some kind of crime by posting these links.

                          Let's hope EDS and the rest of the starters can play the whole game...and play it well. If EDS goes down, are they sliding Lang to C, barclay to RG and Sherrod to RT? Keep Barclay at RT and bring in Lane Taylor?
                          Tretter has been practicing but hasn't been activated yet.

                          Really hoping for a GB win today. A loss all but eliminates them from playoffs.

                            If Barclay is at Center, Lang at Guard and Sherrod at RT I might not make it past the first play. Please keep tabs on them for me while I am whisked away to the emergency room with an anxiety attack.

                            Same would go for EDS at center but then I doubt they bench Barclay for Sherrod.

                              Looking forward to the game, I have a good feeling about today, warts and all. I wonder if portable TV will work in 0 degree weather on the ice??
