    CBS Single - Most of Wisconsin, Illinois, Alaska, UP and northern plains will get Packers at Steelers. Ian Eagle and Charles Davis with the call. Northwest Wisconsin, most of Minnesota and LP of Michigan will get Detroit at L.A. Chargers (Late). Jim Nantz and Tony Romo with the call.

Packers defense had 5 INT's, 2 by Ken Ellis and 1 each by Fred Carr, Bob Jeter and Willie Wood. Steelers rookie Terry Bradshaw was 3-20 passing for 110 yards with 1 TD and 4 INT's. Terry Hanratty was 5-14 for 33 yards with 1 INT. It was Bart Starr's last win as a Packer player.

        The steelers have been good at helping the Packers get right. The dropped pass in the endzone to put us in the playoffs one year. Our Owl victory over them. They have some talent, but they have holes that can be exploited as well. I'm intrigued, but basically still just looking for improvement from key players. Use Jones like last week and we have a shot. Give him 7 touches and we are in trouble.

          Rudy Ford back after missing the game.

          DNPs: Quay Walker, Jaire Alexander, Yosh Nijman and Jon Runyan.

              The only real value of these stats are if they bring it up in the pregame show to remind Bradshaw of it. More INTs than completions is not a common stat.

                Yeah, but he average 36.67 ypc which has to be a league record.
                But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                    I actually remember.
                    I used to think I'm old.
                    Now I know it.
                    Sheesh.

                      I was 12 at the time living in Chicago area. Don't remember that one. Bradshaw that year completed 38% of his passes with 6 TD's and 25 INT's. That's Tagge/Hadl territory.

                        Why do the Packer injury lists usually seem longer? Isn’t there somebody we can call to be fired over this?

                          I think it's this guy: Nate Weir - Associate Athletic Trainer / Director of Rehab & Return to Play

                          I'll see what I can do.

                            I'm assuming Jaire and Jones are just preventative things and they will play like last week, probably Jenkins too. It does seem like somebody is being too hypercautious about keeping players out longer than necessary.

                            If Minkah Fitspatrick doesn't play for the Steelers or is playing hurt, that would be significant.
                            What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                              Nobody talks about it, cos, Love sucks, but the Ugly Irish hasn’t been a liability this year for the Packers.

                              The last time the Packers had a punter who wasn’t a liability, Jon Ryan was converting fake punts. Then the incompetent polar bear cut Ryan.
