More Banjo - Packers vs Eagles

He was walking gingerly with one hand on the railing but carrying his own bag.

If only I had the power of the internet at my fingertips to do a search....LOL. I googled it and found the video. Thanks for responding though.

Encouraging, but he's probably still out for some time. At least it doesn't appear to be season ending, but who knows.

Eagles looked more prepared to play. Packers made way too many mistakes and Love seemed like he was not in game shape.

Both teams had issues. Eagles turned the ball over 3 times and their defense gave up big plays. Kind of a typical week 1 game. Both teams played hard, made big plays, but made mistakes.

The holdings were ticky tack and they were at times in the game where we were starting to assert dominance and take over the game. Killed drives.

At least one and it felt like two, we had them off the field and a penalty advanced their drive.



The refs called a one sided game. We outplayed the Eagles if you take the refs out of the equation.

#Packers QB Jordan Love, who went down with a lower leg injury late in his team’s loss to the #Eagles in Brazil, had tests on his knee today that revealed an MCL sprain, source said. No ACL damage.

Grade 1: Possibly misses Colts/Titans games

Grade 2: Misses Colts & Titans games, possibly misses Vikings & Rams games.

Grade 3: Misses Colts, Titans, Vikings, and Rams games, possibly misses Cardinals, Texans, Jaguars, Lions games.

Bye week is Week 10.

Would think worst case is back Week 11 @ Chicago after the Bye.

He’s young, incredibly healthy, and has a loose body compared to so many athletes you can see are wired tight. He is going to grind and beat whatever timeline his grade tear is.

[RashanGary]

I do think it was incredibly painful. But the way it was being put under strain and then popped… that’s scary as shit. I think the pain along with really noticing the pop made it seem worse for him.

We’re so lucky. Even if we don’t make the playoffs, having him back makes evaluating the guys who are coming up for contracts so much cleaner of a measure. It is so important for both right now winning and long term decision making.

Let’s hope Clifford can win 2 out of 5 or 6.

[RashanGary]

It’s going to be a great year for evaluation. They get to see these guys in two very different situations. Davante performed with tweedle Dee and tweedle dumb in his career. The guys who do that will stand out.

Grade 2. 6-8 week recovery. Possibly play sooner with a brace but decreased mobility.

Thats the perspective of a Packer fan. Barkley looked ready to play. Reed looked ready. Everyone else looked unprepared. Hurts threw at least 4 passes that could have been picks. He got hit with a shotgun snap that he never reacted to.

Its game one of a long season. Willis will probably go 3-0 and we will give him $55 Million a year and trade Love.

My understanding is Jordan Love has between a Grade 1 and Grade 2 MCL sprain, which means he’ll miss a few weeks but not extended time.

There is some truth to this. The refs definitely didn't call the game in our favor. On one endzone play the DB just yanked Doubs jersey so he had no chance to go after the ball. The TV guys said it was uncatchable...yes, since doubs wasn't anywhere near the pass after the jersey pull he had no chance, its true. Some of the holding was legit, some was ticky tacky. I can't say that we outplayed them, but the refs did us no favors.

Some of those holding calls on first half runs were so critical to us establishing a dominant tone. Those alone were disgusting.

The eagles had zero of that happening to them.

The touchdown pass to Doubs. Yeah, that’s a game changing call

The late defensive penalties on us that let them off the hook when we had them off the field.

They fucked us early when we were establishing dominance

They fucked us in the middle with a horrible red zone non call

And they fucked us late when we were going to finish it on defense against all odds


5 game changing calls were made against us in critical situations. We out played them. We played the same level of production despite being held back by what should be a neutral aspect of the game. We were plus 2 on the ball. We out played them. No doubt in my mind.

Maybe just next week, the next, and then play with a brace hopefully.

[Sparkey]

The Eagles have better O and D lines. That's why the won.

Walker and Meyers worry me.
