I agree Mad, I think we are lucky just to have a lead the way the first half was going.

[Pacopete4]

we need to clean a lot of stuff up in the 2nd half not only to win the game but we are a better team than what we are showing

[b bulldog]

LB's need to come up on run support much better and the tackling isn't real crisp today.

Just getting in on this game now.

Looks like Favre is up for this huge game.

Nice to see that DD is getting in on some plays today.

Greg Jenning another TD. . .great!

Any word on KGB?

tAUSCHER REAGGRAVATED HIS ANKEL INJURY ALSO

[esoxx]

CJ's going to be a good player but the comparisons to Moss-like abilities are laughable. Moss came in and blew the doors off the league his rookie year. CJ simply looks like a rookie.

[Harlan Huckleby]

The refs owed the Pack 10 seconds there at least.

nah, Favre owes the Packers 10 seconds. what the hell was he saving the timeout for? that was one of Favre's worst brain farts ever. The clock management that whole last drive wasn't great.

[b bulldog]

Good point essox, Moss did what he does from game one. It is alarmimg how open he has been though.

[FritzDontBlitz]

With the Packers up by 8, hopefully they can tack on 7 more with this opening drive of the second half. That forces Detroit to go away from the running game in order to erase a 15 point deficit. I am kind of hoping they stay with the running game myself, it helps waste clock and limits their ability to exploit the inexperience we have in the secondary...

[Harlan Huckleby]

we need to clean a lot of stuff up in the 2nd half not only to win the game but we are a better team than what we are showing

nah, just keep limping along and get a win. They aren't going to blow out this team today, they are playing OK.

Anybody seriously still think it is smart to have Woodson return punts?

[b bulldog]

Brett wanted to keep his timeout just in case they didn't score. I am far from a Favre apologist but thAT WAS ON THE REFS.
