How's that for field position?

nice run jack

[BallHawk]

I like what I'm hearing about Jackson.

TD BJack!

Plowed it in on the one and had a big run inside the redzone.

WTF have I been saying? The redzone offense starts and stops with the fucking run game.

It worries me that we are blowing vanilla coverages. My guess would be is they are keeping the safeties back in two-man deep zone allowing them to come up and make the plays at the line. The CBs are in man I am sure pressing at the line. LBs will probably float around and man-up as necessary.

Blackmon with a big time return. Fast mother fudger from the sounds of it. An 82 yard return. 3 flags are down. He was caught up and shoved out of bounds by Michael Boulware. Consequently, Boulware horsecollared him and got called for 15 yards. He just locked up his roster spot. Kudos to the Packers for not holding on the play.

Jackson with a big time run in the red zone. Gain of six. Tackled by Peterson on the one. Great push by Spitz. Jackson had a spectacular reading play and cut back.

Jackson scores on a one yard run. Great push by Wells and Colledge at the push. Touchdown in the red zone!!!

nice run, defense did not get much rest but I`ll take it

[PackerTimer]

Sounds like the offensive lines is simply outstanding tonight. And Jackson is doing one hell of a job running behind them. For somebody who is able to watch the game, how does everything look?

Whooohoooooo!!!!!!!!

55 yard play given up by the defense. Good effort from Seneca Wallace.

A missed tackle by Nick Collins. You simply cannot do that. Shit.

On the plus side, Marquad Manual ran the guy down from behind.

Actually, that play is on Barnett. He plows right into Collins knocking him off the reciever. What an idiot.

[PackerTimer]

On every running play, either Wayne or Larry are singling out College or Spitz. That is encouraging.

I am the most impressed that we didn't get flagged on the big return.

In a game like tonight, these guys are trying extra hard on special teams (both teams) because they're trying to lock up a roster spot. I am very, very, very happy with that return considering the only penalty was for a dirty tackle by a safety.

Boulware must have taken a hell of an angle because the knock on him since he came outta college is that he is too slow to be an NFL safety after being an LB in college. Blackmon seems more quick than fast to me. That's ok though, because Hester is more quick than fast in my opinion as well. For comparison sake, Ginn is more fast than quick.

[cpk1994]

I`m not the one to start theories. Does anyone else think that Favre might be paying attention to getting Franks the ball more so he can make a case for himself why he should stay on the team???

If so, Brett needs to keep doing it. Bubba is getting his act together and gaining confidence.

[Him8123]

its nice to see our special teams doing well. Hopefully we can be in at least the top ten or ten to 15 range in league instead of 20something

Damn Hawk you are an amazing mofo
