Nothing spectacular. Just a typical January evening.

Temp at Kick-off in the mid-low 20's.

Ole Fritz is being a Debbie Downer cos he, much like Bobble, hates it when he’s proven wrong. We all know that every time time proves Bobble right about shit, he likes to pop up “Vindicated” by the Dashboard Confessional and sing along with the chorus:

I am selfish, I am wrong
I am right, I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
The things you swore you saw yourself

Anyways, if anyone takes the time to reread the Balding Eagle GameDay thread, she’ll perceive the Kentucky calling me a “mooch.”

And ole Fritz was like, shut the fuck up, Collinsworth, the Packer season is fucked - team has 7 losses. I was like, chill, hombre, even with a loss to the Balding Eagles, the Packers still have a mathematical shot at the dance. Fritz was like, just cos you have a mathematical chance of being more than a burger flipper ain’t mean you’ll be more than a burger flipper.

A Packer victory this week would be the sign I needed to finally quit burger flipping. If the Packers could prove Fritz wrong, so, too, could I.

That might be the longest post I bothered reading. Thats a compliment...or it means I'm a narcissist cuz you mentioned me and I couldn't stop.

Not sure what you mean; does anybody in here really think GB is going to lose this game ?

Not the way their Defense has been playing..the Defense deserves more credit than 12..

People here have been citing Aaron’s stats this year and not factoring in the atrocious OL play to start the season or his injuries. Been saying this is who he is and he’s getting old.

I think 12 still has it. The OL and rookies are coming on. 12 is getting healthy. I think he’s about to show everyone he’s still got it.

He is still a top 10 QB imo. He is not elite 3 any longer though. And in coming years that will get worse, not better. For the cap hit we take for him, he is no longer worth the salary. I hope we run it all the way and then he either announces his retirement, or his undying love for DAdams and requests a trade to the Raiders. In the spirit of that undying love we can make it a 3 way and invite Indy into the mix so they can take Carr.

Winning this game is a given IMO. Detroit is improved but really not that good. If we can't beat Detroit at home we are not good at all and don't deserve to be mentioned in the playoff calibur teams.

We will win. The season starts when the playoffs begin.

Is it a given? Detroit was 1-6 at one point and then went 7-2; you could argue they are a hotter team than GB is. They are at least if not more dangerous than MIN.

Winning a must win game to squeak into the playoffs isn’t going to shut anyone up you burro blanco. Getting into the playoffs and losing is also not going to. You already know what it will take to shut people up.

The best thing that could happen is for the Packers to win the super bowl and the Rodgers to get traded next year for some great draft picks.

How many seconds do you think it would take for you to get Jordan Loves packer pecker out of his pants, ball licker!?

As unlikely as this outcome is, I agree, it would be ideal.

[Fritz]

That would be ideal, though yes, unlikely.

He's accuracy has not been as good as in past years, but he's still borderline elite. If you set the elite as Patrick and Josh Allen he's not longer there; but he's still really dam good and good enough to win the big show with a surrounding case and coaching. I will cheer for him as long as he's in GB. He's still an arrogant jerk imo though. But he's Green Bay's arrogant jerk

[George Cumby]

12's QBR is 91.5 this season.

Lowest of his career since becoming a starter.

Yeah, that's better than a lot of QB's out there, but he is NOT elite this year. And, IMO, the wheels are coming off.
