Official Gameday "we will run the next 9 games" starting with the Caridinals thread

[gbgary]

nothing surprised me at all today.

[Bretsky]

Rodgers leads the league in staring guys down.....

Lot of truth to this in the past six weeks

[bobblehead]

So I virtually never start the gameday thread. Too much responsibility. Add to it that I'm going to the game next week and its even more onerous.

That being said I am choosing this week to do it because the team is in complete disarray and Fat Mike needs to lose this one to get himself canned and secure a better pick for the team. This is probably a one week responsibility.

So first off, we will look great in the first half taking a 17-7 lead into the half. Probably will get a field goal in the second half, but give up a ST score, and a few blunders to allow the Cards to steal the game with a last second FG of their own after Stubby mismanages the clock.

23-20 Cardinals. Goodbye fat mike. Goodbye responsibility of starting the gameday thread. Like the bears in the playoffs I will be one and done.

My work here is done. Buh Bye fat Mike

Packer are in playoff mode. In other words, they are not making the playoffs. Offense looks no better than any other week.

Playoff mode today? I suspect this bunch knows they were, for all intents and purposes, eliminated last week in MN. I laughed every time Moose said "Packers' playoff chances".

If you looked at the stuff that was needed it wasn't out of the question at all.

Glad to see a Score but everything is like pulling teeth

Everything this offense tries to do ALL SEASON has been like pulling teeth. Disfunctional big time on every level.

Even before they told the refs to knock it off, it was clear the rule applied to front facing hits and not hits to the back. Just more dumb rule making.

I will admit though that the new catch rule has gone over better than expected. But I wonder of the QB hit thing took away some coverage. Parts of the catch rule still seem needlessly complex.

Are you talking about the hit to Rodgers' head by that Card defender from behind? I wonder how in the hell did they miss that.

I still enjoy watching Packer football. I watched the Packers in the 70s and 80s and vividly remember those teams. This year's team is nothing like those teams.

This year's team is an underperforming, injury laden team that should win 10 games easily. The 70s and 80s teams seemed to always be underdogs with very little talent.

I still feel like we could go on a streak and win out, but that's becoming more and more unlikely.

Yes, with a few tweaks and a new voice and attitude at HC this is a 10 win team. I never felt that way with those teams in the 70s and 80s. We were lucky to go .500 back then.

Turned out to be perpetual menstrual cramps with him right? He would have fit right in.

I heard his best friend committed suicide with his gun but I'm not sure of the details...

[Pugger]

Clark is a force up the middle.

Yes he is but I have a feeling this entire defense is missing Daniels. Mike is a force too and a leader on that side of the ball.

[Pugger]

Great punt coverage.

The best thing about today was no flags on ST for blocking in the back.

[Tony Oday]

McCarthy is gone

[Pugger]

Is Jones hurt, or is stubby just being a dumbass again by not putting the best players on the field?

For some reason Stubby wants to give Williams all these touches. Ray Charles can see Jones is the better back by a considerable margin.

[Pugger]

HOLY CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! McCarthy is fired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pbmax]

ARod is definitely off. Every thing coming in low.

Yeah, his range is off. Its either too deep or too low.

I think this started with the comeback from the clavicle injury last year. Had same problem in Carolina game. Arm strength wasn't the same and he over compensated with angle and arc.
