Official Chargers @ Packers Game Thread

Touchdown pass to Craig Davis.

I had Rivers slated as a weak spot on the team, but he's what ... 16/16 for close to 200 yards and 2 tds?

Yeah, I benched Rivers on my fantasy team and put in Jeff Garcia...so far, a bad move.

brett is playing great

Where did Bulldog go ?

We're looking good, only had to punt once in the half. Still, I think we should have four scores now. Defense showing up well, except on that last scoring drive. SD sounded scary good on that drive. Were we playing prevent (god, I hate prevent defenses, prevent nothing) on that drive? I'm glad we're moving the ball, but it's making me nervous. I guess we all are these days. A couple of close calls on potential turnovers.

Still, who'd a thunk it? That is, that we'd go into the halftime not only ahead but with 17 points. I hope our D comes out fired up and strangles them. Can Rivers keep it up? I will be surprised. I think we can. I'm waiting for something that shakes up their offense. Hoping.

Can't get the game on sopcast, stuck with the radio stream. Still, quite exciting!! Oh man, the tension!!!

But he's no Brady!

Well, we won every other game this season with strong second half performances. All is not lost, especially when you consider that we're winning.

Nice to see Allen Rossum returning a 98 yarder for a TD
He was still one of my favorite Packers in his short time here

3rd and 11, Vikes give to Adrian Peterson.....12 yard gain....

Brett had a drop by bubba but he also had an easy pic dropped, I'm back!

[Terry]

We played prevent defense with 2:30 to go. That is insane. Have you ever seen an offense that couldn't score on prevent defense? It happens every time. 9 plays, 80 yards in 2 minutes with dinks and dunks. The coaches get all of the blame on that last drive. Inexcusable nut shrinkage IMO.

Great coaches strangle teams in that position. Our defense got predictable and gave up dinks and dunks.

Yeah, agreed, absolutely! So bloody mindless!

[Brainerd]

If Philly really sucks as the pundits have told us what does the current score say about the other undefeated NFC North team?

[woodbuck27]

Passing Yards to end of first half.

** 1 D. McNabb, PHI, 332
2 J. Kitna, DET, 270

3 B. Favre, GB, 185

4 S. McNair, BAL, 164
5 P. Rivers, SD, 159

McNabb is going nuts!

Where are the secondaries on both teams?

Kevin Curtis is having a career day:

2 R. Williams, DET, 167

3 B. Westbrook, PHI, 98

4 A. Gates, SD, 91

5 A. Boldin, ARI, 69

[PackerBlues]

The Packers have been a better team in the 2'nd half for quite a while now. Adjustments are going to be made. This game is the Packers!!!!

3rd and 11, Vikes give to Adrian Peterson.....12 yard gain....

Keep his ass going; I already have 51 pts and I'm only up by 10 points

[b bulldog]

Nick, you talk all you want about the prevent but Rivers has one incompletion and they aren't using LT no where near enough yet.
