Rams lead the Saints 17-7 early in the 3rd quarter. Packers probably want Rams to win because they want Falcons to win NFCW. That's because if Packers tie with Falcons for wildcard spot, Falcons have head to head tiebreaker over Packers. Packers have head to head over Saints and Rams.

Packers were lucky to play the Rams when they didn't have Stafford or Kyren Williams

[Anti-Polar Bear]

2023 NFC North champs, Detroit Pussies.

Seafucks came back to win their game.

To paraphrase Ray Rhodes, if you need help getting into the dance, you ain’t deserve to be in the dance.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Cowfucks ahead by 1 at the moment. Fox keeps showing McCarthy and the dumb look on his face.

[Bretsky]

Bears win

[Bretsky]

I am HAPPY for the DETROIT LIONS

I am HAPPY for the DETROIT LIONS

Ugh.

But it’s good for the Packers that the Vikings lost.


Mullens can be had. Picks. If, uh, you have any kind of defense.

Therefore we can conclude Mullen’s going to be lights-out next week.

Honestly this season is very stress free for me; I have so many other things going on I find myself caring less. Either we slip into the playoffs and get bounced in round one, or we don't make the playoffs. After last year I was positive Joe Barry was getting fired. At this point I at least think Joe Barry is not coming back, and not by choice. But I'm really no "more" confident than I was last year

That is undoubtedly the number one wish for rest of the season. The rest really does not matter

I would have been happy if the only thing that happened was Love panning out and we lost most of the games. But that’s not all that happened. Not even close.

Love panned out
Rasheed Walker panned out at LT
Zach Tom took a second year leap at RT

QB and both tackles are nice positions to have filled.


But that’s not all that happened, not even close.

Tucker Kraft looks like a beast
Musgrave flashed the kind of speed that most defenses don’t have an answer for from the TE position
Dontavion Wicks looks legit
Jayden Reed look legit


So many things are lining up for the offense. The future is so bright!!


Karl Brooks is a really nice add on the DL. Valentine looks like a dude too. There is a lot of work to do on defense, but with Gary, Clark, Jaire and a couple likely ascending players, the cupboard isn’t completely bare. The cap is starting to clean up. We have a ton of draft capital and we should have a new coach. A lot of progress can be made in the offseason.


As good as Love has played, there have been several moments and situations where he wasn’t quite 3 steps ahead like you want your QB to be. Failed 2 minutes, timeouts because of chaos, some bad decisions, etc… but damn he has a high starting point and odds are he’ll be better a year from now.


The Packers, one year after moving on from Rodgers, are poised to be a perennial contender for the foreseeable future. Just have to add a little to the defense and we’re about to roll.

[Teamcheez1]

Mahomes not getting it done for the Chiefs again.

+1. Lots to like about this team and moving forward.

Lamar Jackson looking awesome tonight .

[KYPack]

Brock Purdey exposed as the dwarf little bitch that he is.

4 picks ain't what Shanny wants to see from his QB

[Fritz]

Lamar Jackson looking awesome tonight .

Watching the game. So THESE are what professional defenses look like.
