He said he was going to give up on them and find another franchise to pull for.

Haven't decided on that for sure yet. If they hire McDaniels, absolutely. If they hire someone else, I'll wait until the draft. If they then draft Manziel, I'll bail out on them then.

I'm only looking forward to it if the Packers win...my wife has her 2013 NFC North Champions hat on...

Always liked Tittle (maybe 'til he went to the Giants), Kilmer, Brodie, JH Johnson, Perry, Washington, etc.

Can you blame him?

Maybe you missed seeing Bowen, Orakpo, Fletcher, Jenkins, Baker and a few others that do similar crap. And on offense Young is a crap talker as is Williams. I just dislike the hypocrisy of hating what other teams do when your own players engage in the same behavior. I suppose all fans do it because the same thing goes on in the game threads about Nationals' opponents.

I hate it when those guys do it too but none of them are as bad as Hall or Meriwether. Sherman is as bad as they get

I just can't stand showboating but there's a certain amount that we'll have to deal with as it's sadly become ingrained in the game. Just shows I'm a crusty white guy I reckon.

Not sure who I'm rooting for this game.

My game watching partner... Not much room left in the recliner with me.

Wind chill -10. The coldest game I've ever been to was in the low 20's and it was cold as crap. I can't imagine what games like this must be like.

spidernat · « **Reply #1861 on:** January 05, 2014, 04:59:46 pm »

the packers defense was about as bad as the Redskins defense this season.

A 4th round pick starts all season at LT. Imagine that.

Green Bay knows how to draft. At least on offense.

Boldin and Tyrod Taylor > Flacco.

mitlen · « **Reply #1865 on:** January 05, 2014, 05:14:50 pm »

Boldin is tough.

GB QBs were sacked 45 times and Rodgers broke his collarbone... Not sure if having that 4th rounder starting at LT is such a good thing.

Are you freaking serious? That crap happened when he was running the ball.

Let your pooch post about football. She may make more sense.

That's true though. They have, by far, the most home grown players of any team in the league.

I went to a game at Giants Stadium that was in the single digits. Took me a week to find my dick

They played almost half their season with backup qb's. Perhaps you don't know this but not all sacks are the fault of the OL. Right now for instance the wr's of GB cannot get open and Rodgers has been forced to hang on to the ball far too long especially against a rush the caliber of the 49ers.

Vega · « **Reply #1873 on:** January 05, 2014, 05:40:18 pm »

GB finally has a good running back in Lacy. Took them long enough.

Just over half were against Rodgers. Um yeah, I'm well aware of the causes of sacks and the injury? Pressured and escaped up into the pocket and then outside when he got hit. It wasn't a sack, but the immediate pressure forced him to break the pocket. Granted it was in the redzone so the short field creates more ways of generating pressure.

Fwiw, that was the 9th most sacks allowed in the NFL... Our crappy Skins line allowed fewer. Like three fewer or something, but fewer no matter how you look at it
