  • Official Packers vs. Lions Turkey day thread

    Ok, Rats, no promises I'm up and have time to make a thread in the morning, so a midnight Vegas thread it is.

    Who's pigging out tomorrow? I'm heading to a friends house immediately following the game to enjoy the festivities. Grandma's special cranberry recipe and a couple bottles of booze in hand and we'll be ready to lay around and watch "other" teams play.

    So I'll be thankful first. 30 years of HoF QB play. Mostly winning seasons with a couple Owls thrown in. Its been a hell of a ride. Its not reasonable to expect Love to be #3 is it? Probably not, but how about a holiday miracle and upset the Lions at home and ruin Thanksgiving for all of Michigan?? I'm not predicting a win, to be honest, expecting Barry to hold them under 35 and get our offense enough possessions to not ruin my day is probably a stretch.

    It doesn't matter though, I refuse to be negative on a day of thankfulness.

    Pack goes down 34-17. Love is under pressure all day. The draft thread is flooded with calls for drafting 9 consecutive OL. Yosh and Walker take turns helping Hutchinson look like Reggie White. Tom Struggles. Jenkins is a road grader, but surrounded by 2 inferior run blockers its hard to tell. I can't see a path to victory unless we all get to rub Skins racist little nose in a Love holiday miracle.

    Anyway, drink eat and be merry. It has been and will continue to be a roller coaster of a season. Look for some fire. Look for a team that won't lay down. Look for the young guys to show a little pride against the pride.

    And sorry captain, I didn't give you a chance to bump the I'm waiting thread.

      I'll be thankful if the injury situation doesn't get any worse.
      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
      A thundercloud
      They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

        I don’t have high expectations for today. Lots of injuries, on the road, against a team that is clearly better and has something to play for.
        Wouldn’t it be nice if MLF and Barry had a dynamic game plan? I know, I’m asking for too much.

        Maybe they’ll surprise. At least hoping for continued improvement.

          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 expect the Lions to win, but I think the Packers will cover the spread. I see this as a 6-7 point win for the Lions. Our OL is just not good enough to handle the Lions pressure when it counts.

                TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

                      I suspect that several injured players would be on the field if this team was the 3 seed. They aren't directly ETT, but they aren't avoiding it either.

                      edit: Sadly this gives Barry a built in excuse for failure.

                        Happy thanksgiving, rats!

                        Let’s hope packers get a gift today.

                          This team doesn't have the talent on the field to compete with the Lions. Injuries and youth have made this game too high a mountain to climb.

                          If we end the game within two touchdowns of the Lions, it will be a moral victory. I just hope we avoid more injuries.
