More Banjo: Week 12 @ Pittsburgh

Remember, this Packers team is no more talented than the Browns. Don't let the 3 point point differential/road loss fool you into thinking different.

In the end poor decisions by stubby in key moments lost this game.

strange, I thought it was just better play by Pittsburgh's money men.

well, we get to test this directly pretty soon. I'm still keeping the grocery bag handy.

One play here or there and we’re all on cloud 9. There’s no moral victories in football but this comes pretty damn close.

I'm a little bit surprised that I haven't seen any comments in here about the no-call of helmet to helmet by Watt on Hundley. It should have been called, and that penalty woulda made a lot of difference.

Steelers did everything they could to not win the game. They played well when it mattered and won. Wow is Antonio Brown good. He is like a super great Greg Jennings.

it was huge. But it was Stubby's fault.

I understand that gets called often, but if my OLB hit the QBs helmet when he ducked down and we lost a game on a flag I would be livid.

Green Bay Packers @packers
McCarthy: Our guys battled, they fought. Fully confident we were going to come in here & get the win. Came up short. #GBvsPIT

Green Bay Packers @packers
McCarthy: This team has great fight. They work hard. We need to win. We've got six losses now. It's about beating Tampa Bay.

Green Bay Packers @packers
McCarthy on @bretthundley7: Those are all the steps you look for in your young QB. Thought he did a good job in key spots. Good football. Thought he did a heck of a job tonight. #GBvsPIT

so would I. You're not supposed to lead with the crown of your helmet.

I have nothing official but I think House came out of the game near the end and was replaced by Hawkins.

King and Randall returned. Burnett seemed to make it through. I did not see any other injuries.

McCray was a late scratch after looking like he might play. Spriggs got the call and was not great but also not quite a tire fire. He needs reps to get timing down. On one run play, he was looking for the snap as they do on the road in shotgun and he glanced to read the position of the defender. He turned his head back just in the to be a fraction late off the ball and got beat inside. His defender was blocked, but into the hole and his guy helped secure the tackle of Williams.

Agreed. It's not like he was standing still in the pocket and Watt just laid into it. It appeared 100% accidental and 50/50 on the blame.
