Ok so the Pack lost last night. Frankly, as a Packers fan, I’m glad they did. Maybe for their sake but certainly for the “fans”. Truly some people we’re, I’m sure, losing it. After two wins in preseason I was amazed how people all but had their Super Bowl seats already bought. I swear I was gonna lose it, lol. Last weeks game sounded great on radio. This weeks game looked pretty shaky on TV. The defense looks like they have a chance to mold together pretty well and likely sooner than later. But I’ve said it for the last 2-3 years. Where are Favre’s targets? Why has management refused to get him some veteran talent? After the game Macarthy said they struggled to run the ball in the first half. Duh! Thye tried a whopping NINE times! Even if you have the leagues best back averaging, for instance, 6 yards per carry that is simply not enough. Of course we’re sitting on a bench full of rookie back ups for running backs. Thanks Thompson.
I’ve not given up hope as it is obviously still about finding the best players on the team. The plays are very vanilla and that too leads to a very blah game at times. However I still see a team that will struggle against any kind of decent defense because we will be again one dimensional. I hope they prove me wrong and will gladly say they have if they do. I can’t wait until next weeks game, hopefully we’ll see something to grip to there.
Oh, anyone hear any word on Driver?
