A newbie - the truth about the Packers

[woodbuck27]

This PKD was NOT the reason we lost today.

If too many Packers looked 'peaked' maybe it's the Mumps?

An epidemic of Mumps has hit the NHL of late.

Otherwise peaked and performance aren't necessarily related.

the simple fact is that the Packers are not good enough to beat Seattle.

Sure they are.

[esoxx]

Sure they are.

Not in Seattle.

This PKD was NOT the reason we lost today.

sure it was. It affected the way the offense played. They were never comfortable in the passing game. Some of the passes that were off were off because Rodgers was moving in the pocket as he was passing and/or getting bumped or just about to get hit. QBs sense that. All the back shoulder throws were due to corners pressing because they know the pressure will bail them out. And it did - it forced early and inaccurate throws.

The ST shit the bed today. No matter how bad the O played today we could have won.

I was beginning to think that Masthay was afflicted with AJ Hawk until he unleashed the bomb on his 3rd attempt at the one punt. He has not hit many bombs outside.

Not in Seattle.

Would be anything but easy. But the Packers can win there. Dallas did.

today's loss was more about our ineptitude than their great d. drops, poor passes, and penalties, were self inflicted.

The biggest area that the Bills dominated today was on special teams. Cost us 10 points (the punt return TD and the blocked FG).

the simple fact is that the Packers are not good enough to beat Seattle. But, because they can't solve PKD™ we may be spared a horrible playoff loss at Seattle in favor of a horrible, season-ending loss to Detroit.

I think the Packers offense are good (talented) enough, but are they smart enough?

For example, today when the offense was off, McCarthy/Rodgers refused to correct. Anyone remember the Pats/Colts game earlier this season? Brady was uncharacteristically sloppy with the ball...so the Patriots ran the ball over 40 times.

Rodgers is uncharacteristically off/sloppy? Let's throw it 42 times despite Lacy getting over 6 YPC.

Hi.... See Me !? ..... I'm Mike McCarthy.

Here's what stinking up Buffalo did to me:

As joemailman said in another thread Lacy has a bad hip that bothered him all week. He wasn't going to get a zillion carries. I'm surprised Starks didn't get more attempts, however.

LOL

Simply a light hearted joke to get some relief from the pain of that horrible upset.
