So then...what...our turnover ratio was like -10 for the preseason?

Yes, it's just preseason, but also deja vu all over again. Atrocious.

We do look very bad !!

Time to get OUR BEST and I mean BEST on a 53 Man FavreChild, and get OUR BEST READY for da Bears and get it on.

We need help Big time on the OL and at WR.

That means Favre and COMPANY. . .Aaron Rodgers isn't close... to being ready.

I hate being SCAM'D - when I see that, I'm being SCAM'D !

GO PACK GO !!

[FavreChild]

Brett had 4 TD's and 1 INT. That's the most important stat.

You're damn right it is. (Not that the nat'l media will report that stat.)

[FavreChild]

Yes, we can do it, Woody. TO ratio is correctible, and, often involves a degree of luck.

At least that what AL says....

Hooray....AL!

[Willard]

What can be learned from today's game?

Our back-ups are bad.
Our Special Teams are atrocious.
Our starters better stay healthy for us to have any chance of a good season.
Our OL does not look ready to go.
We are not good enough to overcome penalty and turn-over deficits.
Ryan's gross average on punts is great, but it might not matter much.
We haven't found a return man yet.

I almost forgot one:

We've got the bears right where we want them!!!

[FavreChild]

Ryan's gross average on punts is great, but it might not matter much.

What do you mean? It sounds like we'll be punting a lot.

Yeah, in all seriousness, the concerns are myriad and widespread. When you can't even find someone to catch a punt, there is nothing too basic to be ignored.

You also have to look at who made the TO's in the pre-season. Today they were made by A. Rodgers, I. Martin and C. Rodgers. You're not likely to see these people on the field once the season starts.

It sounded like a bunch of questionable players were playing on special teams - basically the second string special team players. I am assuming it will be better during the regular season, with Poppinga, Hodge, Martin and a few of the other starting special team players get in there.

Great to see the leg of Ryan - he had a couple of boomers (one I believe was 65 yards - with good hang time).

[RIPackerFan]

Woodson will catch the punts - he is a veteran with good hands. If anything happens to him, it will be Jennings.

[FavreChild]

Good comments, thanks, RI. Making the Flaming Thumbtacks look good is not encouraging at any level, but not getting to view the game...it's helpful however y'all can put it in perspective.

[Joemailman]

Woodson, Jennings and R. Martin have all shown the ability to catch punts with no problem. I would also expect that TT will be looking to bring in a returner for a tryout once everyone makes their final cuts.

HOPING FavreChild.

If Ruvell Martin gets cut I won't be

GO PACK GO ! FAN FAITH in 2006 !

Wasn't the punt coverage a tad suspect?

2 X 24 yard returns on punts... won't play.

[MJZiggy]

R. Martin did a good job catching his kickoff. He just needs to find somewhere to run after he does.

btw, J. Ryan had an EC sidenote, but the guys probably don't want to know about it.

[FavreChild]

Yeah, but I do.

Although I have a hard time equating Ryan with EC....

[GBRulz]

share, Zig ! Inquiring minds want to know!

Does Ryan have a friend?
