Yes. It is pretty astonishing that moving Sitton to LT is a better option than any of the backups - Tretter, Barclay, Walker. The offensive line as a unit is a personnel fail. What thread am I in? I vote to blame TT.Originally posted by pbmax View PostI think M3 is in QB survival mode. He is trying not to get Rodgers killed.

Careful, I'm hanging by that thread.Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View PostWhat thread am I in?One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Certainly it must fall on him.
Ted Thompson gets the blunt of any blame. He'd be the first to admit that's the case if asked to be honest...and had any decency and integrity.** Since 2006 3 X Pro Pickem' Champion; 4 X Runner-Up and 3 X 3rd place.

Fine don't call it a roll, but they sure as fuck have been playing far better football than GB.Originally posted by King Friday View PostGreat...they won their last 4 games against teams that were a combined 25-39. Sorry, I just don't see that as much of a roll...unless all the wins were by 20+ points, which they were not. I didn't see many Packer fans claiming Green Bay was on a roll when they beat the Lions, Cowboys and Raiders three straight...because that isn't all that impressive. If you are going to say Washington will beat Green Bay, fine...but claiming the reason is because Washington is "on a roll" is a very weak argument.

I don't know. Their 4 game win streak is probably comparable to the Packers 3 game streak before losing to Arizona and Minnesota. Neither team seems capable of beating quality opponents right now.Originally posted by Rutnstrut View PostFine don't call it a roll, but they sure as fuck have been playing far better football than GB.I can't run no more

It is not clear what "winning" consists of in this game. Seems like both teams would prefer to pack-it-in and let the other go ahead and face the next round.Originally posted by oldbutnotdeadyet View PostDoes that mean they both lose sunday??
Kind of reminds me of the "Alphonse and Gaston" comic. BTW, Max was present at this skit as a kid, and there's Madtown's abuelo:
This skit was based on a popular comic strip. Alphonse (the tall one) and Gaston (the shorter one) were always unfailingly, even obsessively polite to one another. They would bow to one another, each insisting the other go first. As a result, they never actually got anywhere because they were always insisting that the other go first. The catchphrase "After you Alphonse" was popular even after the strip faded from public memory.

No. It means they both win. I'm tired of the negativity around here.Originally posted by oldbutnotdeadyet View PostDoes that mean they both lose sunday??I can't run no more

Its a fair point. Most recent good game was November. A bad defense might help but not cure the current scoring drought.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostI don't know.

This feels like 1993 and 1994 when the Packers would play Detroit in the wildcard round and then travel to Dallas. Pretty much knew they weren't going to beat Dallas.I can't run no more

Harlan, I see you got a hold of the Scouting Report Cleft Crusty prepared for Sunday's Packer game. But read the fine print again, my friend. (Or wait till tomorrow when you sober up.)Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View PostIt is not clear what "winning" consists of in this game.

Clefty wasn't referring to Alphonse and Gaston, but to Alfred and Garcon, the Redskins' one-two punch:

IT feels more like 1983 to me. That year, no matter how well the offense played, you knew the defense was gonna lose it for them eventually. This year kinda the opposite - Defense will play well, but the offense is just gonna drop a turd.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostThis feels like 1993 and 1994 when the Packers would play Detroit in the wildcard round and then travel to Dallas.
