The Official Packers @ Fishmongers WK 15 GameDay Thread

[Guest]

What a weird season it has been for your boi, Tank Elf Duke. Watched the Balding Eagles game from a Super 8. Watched the Tyrants and second Pussies of Detroit games while a-grinding at poker. Will miss the 2nd halves of tonight and next week’s game, cos, damn night games and goddamed burger flipping duties call. Gonna be in smoke-filled Vegas for week 17 and 18 - maybe humble Bobble could invite me over to his palace to watch the games.

As for this game, I dunno a whole lot bout the Fishmongers. Maybe pick off Smith a few times. Maybe quit pooping out rocks. Maybe Love will shine. Hell, check out Coldplay’s recently released album, “Moon Music,” and maybe Pack will win.

Power to the Packers!

[George Cumby]

Packers win.

[Willard]

The Pack gets to Geno: 2 picks; 5 sacks; 1 strip. Pack wins 27-17.

Just like the Niners and Dolphins game, this is one that the Packers simply have to win in order to give me any confidence they can take the next step and do more damage in the postseason. A road trip can be tough, but the Packers have had extra time to prepare, which should largely negate the disadvantage. The offense needs to be able to control time of possession against a mediocre run defense. Getting all offensive players involved in the game early must be a priority. The defense has to show some kind of capability to defend the middle of the field. The coaching staff needs to get play calls in earlier and prevent defensive lines from having an advantage by letting the play clock get to zero.

I expect the Packers to win, but I doubt it will be convincingly.

If the defense plays like this, I’ll have some renewed confidence in this team.

If the win like 38 - 35, I won’t feel so good. I won’t feel horrible but it won’t inspire confidence.

Go Pack Go!

Agreed. We need to be able to beat playoff teams.

I think this might be a prequel to the Wild Card round.

Sounds like Walker III is out at RB for the Seahawks but the backup rookie had a career game last week so it’s not a big trade off.

Our defense hasn’t been that impressive as of late but they do ok in the season view. While they’ve only allowed >20 in 5 of 13 games, not surprisingly, 3 of our 4 losses came when oppoents scored 30+points.

It’s not all of the Defense. The Offense has been oddly effective but either have a strange game plan or they have to adapt if behind, but still doesn’t feel like we always impose our will on the opponent. More of a feeling than anything.

We’ll see how we come out after the mini bye. I think we’ll lean early on with Jacobs and try to play ToP to keep Seahawks with fewer chances and allow our weak secondary to at least not get too tired with Geno nearly leading the league in yards, attempts, etc. He’s thrown over 300 3 times and has had two games with 50+ attempts. He’ll run in a few times a game but we should be at least planning on stopping the rookie RB and a pass happy offense.

Hoping we get Doubs back and the passing game benefits from a rush heavy Jacobs. I think it’ll be high scoring and would guess something like 30-27 for the win.

Go Pack!

Is the Seattle stadium still extremely loud? I remember during their SB years it was known for being very loud at field level and visiting offenses needing to go to a silent snap count. Is that still the case?

Yeah it’s the same shit. It might have been louder during the legion of boom years for the fan base. They are definitely going to get a hard on for the Packers coming back to town so expect nothing less.

It’s a real shame we are only playing for wild card seeding.
Nonetheless, this is an important game to build for the playoffs.
Let’s see which version of the Packers shows up tonight.

It should be loud. But I don't know if it's any louder than what the Packers dealt with last week.

I wish Carrie was under my wood.
