packers

The Green and Gold is not my team, just trying to ruffle some feathers

After the fumble…. access it on the kickoff….. 15 yards….

I just saw that Warner had one more TD passes than incompletions. 5/4. We will be seeing the AZ boys here in 13 days.

There’s a little thing called the Dallas Cowboys you will be “seeing” in 6 days that I would be more worried about than the Cardinals in 13

I love the Packers. Everything about this team is pointing up. I am not even upset at the loss. Look how long it took Romo and Favre and most great QB’s to get there team over the hump. Then look how Rodgers played in his first huge game. I will watch the rest of the playoffs and hope a team is as entertaining as the Packers were this year. With an eye towards next year. I am willing to bet the Packers will be making alot of noise next year

right on. youngest team in the NFL this year. they got exposed just like the Iggles. barring injury the Packers should be real solid for next few seasons or so. Jennings and Finley had break out games. that’s a good sign for the future. Rogers performed pretty well for his first play off game. Favre lost a few to the Cowboys before he hit his playoff stride. the future is rosy in Titletown.

I was just thinking where the Pack ended up, considering the first few games of the season. Asking me back then if I thought the playoffs were a possibility I’d say no way! Hats off to a better than expected year, and heck the queens should have no problems with the girls, the Pack had no troubles.

Against Favre (x2), Warner and Roth, the defense allowed a combined QB rating of over 140 with 15 TDs and no INTs.

I think you still have some work to do.

want to talk about Favre’s playoff record against Cowboys?

playoff record since 1999?

No. Nobody cares. That is not the topic of this thread.

The point is plain as day, against the top QB’s this season, the supposed #1 defense gave up a lot of points, and lost every game for you. 51 last night. The future looks bright in some areas, but it looks like it needs a lot of work in other areas.

And no where in that does it matter what Favre’s record in the playoffs was against the Cowgirls. It is totally insignificant, meaningless, and off point. It has absolutely no bearing on the topic everyone here is discussing.

I’m with ya BP!

The Pack have a ton of pieces in place to make some good runs over the next couple years. Priority number one this offseason has got to be the offensive line.
Love A-Rod’s quote. This guy’s head is in the right place to lead this team to multiple Lombardi trophies!

“There’s always going to be one or two plays in the game where you wonder should there be a call, shouldn’t there be a call, but those are out of my control,” Rodgers said, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “The things I worry about are the things I can control. I made some mistakes in the game. Those are the ones I’m thinking about. Not a potential face mask on that.”

To think of the stagnet D we had last year at this time and then the play making 3-4 turnover machine we had this year. Then consider the switch that was made and how hard it is to flip a D then learn it and exicute it. I would say this D is alot closer than farther away. A single game of breakdowns does not take away any of the ground work that was layed down this year. I mean if we had won we would be in the same shoes as Arizona who gave up just as much only they have a chance to prove it was just one game….the future is so bright I gotta wear shades.

“Rodgers said, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “The things I worry about are the things I can control. I made some mistakes in the game. Those are the ones I’m thinking about. Not a potential face mask on that.”

Now that is what you like to hear out of a QB. Admitting he made some mistakes and taking some of the responsibilty for it.

That is not what we are used to hearing around here untill the kid got a chance to start. and prove that he is and can CONTINUE to be a top 10 qb for years to come.

No matter what any queens fan may say, I still believe they will be better next season. No one is arguing the fact that a sharp QB can score some points, but a couple queens fans still think the D gave up 51, hey pass some of that over here! This last game we really missed Harris, and it showed. I hope we can draft a secondary and a kicker, get a couple o-liners through free agency, and build from there

I agree with several of the statements about the future of the Packers being bright.

I also find it troubling the way Dom Capers plays defense against the teams with top QBs. I think I heard a statistic saying that Dom Capers has never beat a Brett Farve team. In the 4 games that DaveB mentions, we sacked the QB (Vikes Game 1 – 0 times, Vikes Game 2 – 0 times, Pitts – 5 times, Cardinals – 1 time). I’d much rather see them take their chances getting to the QB than rely on Bush or some of our other backup DBs maintaining coverage.

PS. Congrats to Sir Charles Woodson on being named Defensive Player of the Year.

I remember a Dom Capers D playing the Packers pretty darn tough in Super Bowl 31, he didnt beat old Favre but that Packer team was a team of destiny right from the begining of the season. I booked my Vegas weekend to watch the Packers play in the Super Bowl in September

Woodson- D player of the year. Well deserved. That along big play Clay going to the pro bowl make up for the non face mask call at the end of the game

Facemask? What facemask? This pretty much proves that Packer fans are a bunch of clueless whiners.

Watch the damn play, RODGERS TURNED HIS OWN HEAD TO SEE THE BALL, so that he could kick it to the AZ player. How is the defender twisting and pulling the facemask in a flagrant nature if Rodgers is still turning his head and the helmet is moving with it?????

The play:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_oKVuzExJw

The reason why it was a good no call:
http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/11/when-is-grabbing-the-facemask-not-a-facemask-penalty/?partner=rss&emc=rss

A “face-mask” penalty is a judgment call that is not reviewable by replay.

Rule 12, Section 2, Article 5 of the NFL Rule Book (page 81) states that “no player shall twist, turn, or pull the face mask of an opponent in any direction.”

The Rule Book describes the penalty as follows:

“Penalty: For twisting, turning or pulling the mask: loss of 15 yards. A personal foul. The player may be disqualified if the action is judged by the official(s) to be of a flagrant nature.”

The Rule Book describes an approved ruling as it relates to face-mask penalties (page 81).

“A.R. 12.12 – Third-and-10 on A30. Runner A1 runs to the A33, where he is tackled by B1, who incidentally grasps A1’s face mask on the tackle, but it is not a twist, turn or pull. Ruling: A’s ball, fourth-and-seven, on A33. No foul.”

“No. Nobody cares. That is not the topic of this thread.”

This was said in an above post, who is talking about a facemask? And who really cares?

After I read the first line I stopped reading your BS to straighten you out. Since when is mentioning something a whine. It looked like a face mask to the point of them front paging it on Yahoo yesterday. Dave get a clue, if I wanted to whine about that call I would of about 4 posts ago. Put that in your pipe and light it up

Yeah, dont watch the video showing no penalty when you can look at a snapshot that proves nothing.

Good to know y’all have a lot of cheese to go with ALL that WHINE.

dave you are one fine fellow, boy you sure give the queens fan a great face, quit your pointles whining. This whole post is pretty positive except you and another queens fan. big g would call you bitter, right big g?

Your comments just prove that you are not reading and understanding 1 thing that was written since I started posting here yesterday. Read into it any way you want but you are dead wrong.

As long as we’re going to talk about non-calls on critical plays in the playoffs, I’m still mad as he!! about Drew Pearson pushing off on Nate Wright to catch the original”Hail Mary” pass in the 1975 NFC Championship game. That cost my team another trip to the Super Bowl.

To heck with the facemask call, I’m more PO’d about the helmet to helmet shot the play before, if that was Brady, Favre or Manning (the good one Ind) it would have been called. Anyway the game is over the calls were made (not all good ) and it is in the history books. END OF STORY.

Also all of you Viking fans should be worried about a team that is coming to your house that is very hot and hungry to prove that they belong in the show.

Plus Favre’s ugly side hasn’t really showed yet THIS season and in prime time under the BIG lights it can show up at any given time. WE KNOW, WE FOLLOWED and witnessed it more than once. (just something to think about)

Good luck with the Cowboys

Here’s that line about Favre’s ugly side again. Predicting that Favre will fall flat again still is a higher % chance of Favre succeeding! He’s one of 8 QB’s left in the playoffs.

Guys, it doesn’t matter what he’s done in the past. The Vikings are where they are today because of Favre, we would not have been here without him. So whether we win the Bowl or lose out on Sunday, we got where we were because of #4.

Which was NFC North Division champs and #2 seed in the playoffs. (For now!)

ET

Woodson won defensive MVP because of the weak schedule GB played, which also led to the #2 defense in the league this year.

Sorry, figured the weak schedule argument needed to come out before some silly Packer fan used it.
