More Banjo: Week 14 vs Atlanta

[pbmax]

A win! Playoffs still mathematically possible! The NFL, its fantastic.

Clark hurt his elbow and came back. McCray came back too after taking a trip to the locker room.

Offense looked exciting for a drive or two with quick stuff but eventually looked a lot like the offense in the rest of the year. Second half got a huge Jones run on a great drive to open the half I believe. The rest was a slog. I think they should be running more given their putrid YPA and their high YPC with Jones.

Defense stood tall long enough to let the offense get the lead PLUS contributed a pick six. Then with 20+ point lead, bled slowly in a zone. Nicely done.

Liked Breeland and Brown in the backfield. I didn't see much of the safeties but Brice was out there.

Fans should get a stud rating given level of noise. Good new blood out there today.

Should have a season ticket holder purge

It's pretty mean to take advantage of the mentally ill.

You could hear a pin drop. Lambeau is BY FAR the quietest stadium there is.

[mraynrand]

Stadiums louder than Lambeau:

Paul Brown Stadium (Cincinnati) - fans stand up the entire game. Great tailgate.
The Link (Philly) - Fans insult you all day. Wife beating up Philly mascot like Ace Ventura at tailgate an added bonus
Ford Field - louder than Lambeau even when minority of fans are cheering for Packers
Soldier Field - the old stadium was loud even when the Bears were losing
Candlestick - loud even when Joe was killing the Bucs
Metrodome - can't hear yourself think
RCA dome - loud for a 0-10 team beating up a defending champ
Rich Stadium - neolithic: The Barbarians are boisterous
Browns Stadium - quiet because of all the losing, but the Packer road fans are louder than season ticket holders drunk on brandy at Lambeau
University of Phoenix Stadium - Cardinals - cannot talk with family members sitting next to you - and not just because you're not on speaking terms.

Lambeau - courteous fans are generally friendly to opponents, good natured, and regular season ticket holders get far more drunk than Gold Package weenies.

You were there last week, right?

Because they sounded very loud today. I don't doubt that the normal crowd is quieter now.

A whitewash. Not to go full tex, but the O line played OK at best, perhaps better than expected missing 3 starters. But they struggled with stunts ALL day and there is an open question about letting an unblocked DB off the corner twice (could have been called that way, Rodgers has done this before).

I suspect there were a lot of people there today who don't normally have affordable access to tickets. I would expect them to be loud. Also, a lot of stuff happened early in that game to stoke the crowd.

Would they have been as loud if MM was still the coach?

All things considered, I thought these back ups did better than the regulars usually do. Less experienced players getting beat by trickery is forgivable to some extent. More than anything else, though, it was the same thing that has benefited the Packers for years - Rodgers' escapability - that saved the day.

Good question, not sure if people were outwardly happy with the old coach gone.

I suspect the cheap seats meant a lot of first time or infrequent attendees too. They still got the wave going while Packers were on offense though!

Cheer up Kenny, its not that cold!

[Guiness]

Not sure how I feel about this win. They're always nice and I'm of the opinion that wining begets winning, but this one is bittersweet.

Have to say, CM laid some wood to Ryan today that warranted an ejection compared to what he got penalized for weeks 1 and 2.

[ThunderDan]

Champions Club is awesome. First time there.

Lamb chops, jumbo shrimp, waugu beef brisket. Brats and hot dogs.

They have the tv feed running with the radio stream over the sounds system. We were as high as the lights on the bowl and looked right down the field from the south end zone.
