Official Game Day Thread: Packers vs. Lions

If you're already in FG range, why not take a shot at the endzone?

[Freak Out]

These refs are a joke

Big time. WTF are they doing out there?

3 points is very good at this point. 8 point lead is good going into halftime

[The Leaper]

But Jones has made more big plays this year than CJ.

I think they've been about the same...and I give Jones the advantage having Favre tossing him the ball.

I do agree though...Johnson is not playing to his potential right now.

Refs cost us a shot aT 7. Brett is once again playing very,very well.

[Bossman641]

How the hell is that not delay of game on the defense? They're laying on the guy.

[The Leaper]

Packers need to come out after the half and put up another score.

[b bulldog]

Nobody can cover CJ but he can't catch. His game so far is reminding me of TO in 98 at Frisco. Dropped everything all day and than caught the last ball thrown by Young to defeat us

[Carolina_Packer]

Jason Hunter was a great pass rusher at Appalacian State when the won the D1-AA championship a couple of year's ago. It was between him and Birdine at the last cutdown. Yeah, he does look like a LB, but you're glad to have him today with KGB going down.

Not really. Favre should've called the timeout immediately. There wasn't time to spike the ball. We would've had 10 seconds...plenty of time to run a play or two looking for a TD.

Favre looks to spike the ball too often I think.

When will Packers ever catch a break with the refs this season?

That's disgraceful.

The refs owed the Pack 10 seconds there at least. They blew the whistle to stop forward progress, then let the players scrap in a pile and damn near waste the rest of the clock. Pretty clever on Detroit's part, saved them from a possible 21-9 deficit. I just hope it doesn't come back and bite us later....

I'm sure he can rush the passer. He has a ton of speed. He just won't be much of a factor in the run game, so I expect the LBs to be making tackles 4-6 yards downfield a lot.

First drive will be key as always.

Im not happy with that TD that was lost right before halftime but after the shitty start we can be thankful the score is not flipped or worse.
