Really hope we get keke back. I just want our front to be 100% 100%. So important to win in those trenches.

Looks like they are getting Vita Vea back for this one. Running the ball up the gut might not be a legitimate option. We didn’t have to face him last time.

Vita Vea - I couldn't remember if he was a former Packer fullback or the subject of this classic I Love Lucy bit:Originally posted by GB-Brandon View Post

If vea is good to go this will be the best d we have faced all season. Their roster is the best in the league top to bottom. Our o is bettwe thanks to rodgers. At least their special teams are almost as bad as ours.

I thought that was Cher punting for the Packers all year.I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up

Vea is a 350 lb man that hasn't practiced in over 3 months. Color me not too worried. He's likely not going to be in condition to play much. I've also heard it's a ruse by Arians and that he's unlikely to play. They are just playing games and opening up his practice window."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

Positions that matter like OL? Oh wait. This is the new younger generation. If you ain't a playmaker you ain't shit. I'm old school.

I really wanted to like JK Scott - I thought that picking a punter in the fifth round was okay if he became a weapon. But not only is he pretty much "meh" as a punter, maybe less than that, he's a frickin' liability when it comes to tackling or taking one for the team. Why shovel the ball to the kicker who's about to be creamed? Roll left and heave one into the end zone, or throw it away, or run and try to get as far as you can. Something. But to throw the ball to Crosby like it's a hot potato? Calling him a pussy is an insult to pussies.Originally posted by Joemailman View Post
On another note, in a game in which people are obsessed with having the tiniest advantage, shouldn't it play into the Packers' hand to have an extra day, since they played Saturday? One more day for King to heal his whatever, for Dr. Z to rest, for The Flower to let his staff have a minute, for Dillon to rest that quad, and all of that.
The Bucs' defense is tough. But we all worried about the Rams' defense,which until the Bucs became the opponent was supposed to have the best defense in the league.
I think Brady's immobility is a great help for the Packers. Facing someone like Mahomes or Wilson would be the Packers' worst nightmare. Gap discipline on pass rushes limits one's moves. But with a statue like Brady, Dr. Z can spin and zig any which way.Brady can maneuver around with the best of 'em, but he's not going to take off for a twenty yard gain."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

Yeah I think I got confused when typing that, I believe I intended to write `on paper`. Might have been chatting with my wife or something when typing, not sure. Packers clearly have some advantages - primarily at the positions that matter like OT, QB, CB, Pass rush, etc.Originally posted by bobblehead View PostComment

All this talk of "worst matchup". Well, that is what you get when we play down to 4 and then 2 teams left. Its true I would like to be playing the Falcons here, but we get the best team cuz that is the game. You beat them or you are not the best team.
I think we can and should. I still maintain we marched down the field on them 2x before Rodgers played hero and got his bell rung. He threw a pick 6 and a pick (near 6) his next two possessions. Of course we might lose, TB got to this game and it wasn't by luck. However, we got here too. And we had the better record. And we had the better offense. And the defense peaked after "the talk". I like our chances.The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince LombardiComment
