All in all, not a bad game.
JLove looks great and there is some legit young talent on O in Reed & Musgrave.
And ... we just got more INDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE that DILLON, BAKH, SAVAGE (among several others) are not going to be with the organization when they hopefully make a serious run some time...
We’ve lost to them 9 times since 2013. I’m not shocked we lost. I am surprised that after two weeks of rah rah we have to get better and win song and dance they still played flat.
This is not a contending team. The defense is above-average but soft. The offense is a train wreck and I have no confidence they know how to fix it. We have a hard time getting one first down, let alone stringing together 5 or 6 in a successful drive. We were given 3 penalties on our last TD...
And here we are at the divide. I'll say this very clearly.
Aaron Rodgers may be the best QB ever to play for GB
Aaron Rodgers may be the the most talented Packer ever
Aaron Rodgers even if he is those two things is NOT the franchise. The Packers as a whole aren't Aaron Rodgers.
I think a lot of this is frustration but I think its also posturing. Rodgers camp is trying to create some leverage and in the NFL really the only way you can do it is with media related stuff like this. Brady is dominating national media right now vs. the Pats and again that's all posturing and...
No Rodgers and guessing the starters get a series or 2. Be interesting to see how our depth is. Since I work Friday the second half isn't happening for me.
I am not usually the leader of the fire Thompson/fire McCarthy lynch mob, but I am making an early prediction that this is going to be McCarthy's last year.
Seeing the dysfunctional offense from last year continue, and realizing that it is based on lack of playmakers at the skill positions, an...
Well last week. I predicted a narrow, close, ugly game with the Packers coming out, barely, on top.
This week I see the Packers playing much better, and I predict a very close game, a dogfight. I don't know if they'll win or not, but there will be much better play this week. gopackgo
I agree with you.
His team was completely unprepared. No in game changes. Guys looked lost and almost like they had no interest in being there and that has to fall on the head coach.
Especially after a bye week. Inexcusable.
But tied with MM for the biggest dud are the players. The Oline...
Just a few thoughts from last night:
This game showed the limitations of the "players, not plays" -mantra. Eagles had zero problem isolating our ILBs in mismatches in our coverages, and neither team could do a damn thing against screens. Not gonna be that easy in the regular season...
Disappointing.
He obviously did not heed McCarthy's off season message "BE SAFE".
Not going to make the front office happy having to deal with another off field brain fart.
A'Shawn Robinson is someone GB could use on the DL big 320 but he can move and stuff the run and bring pressure. http://www.rotoworld.com/recent/cfb/132745/ashawn-robinson
There were periods where people had outright hate for Favre- especially his stint with Vikings. You also had a lot of Packer fans that weren't from WI who became fans of the team because of Favre and followed his move to the Jets and Vikes. I never hated him- did get sick of the off-season soap...
