Game thread, Green Bay vs. Washington, 9/23/18

[LouisEly]

First road game of the season. Redskins beat the hapless Cardinals who are likely one of the three worst teams in the league, and lost to the Colts at home 21-9.

[pacopete4]

How is Brice our starter.

[pacopete4]

Earl Thomas should be on a flight to GB. This is just silly.

[MrTPlush]

How is Brice our starter.

 

Could have been such a good play...instead he blew it and overran it.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Good Lord Davon House is slow. I have no idea why he was retained. Terrible player.

[MrTPlush]

lol Alex Smith just to run for first thanks to a blatant hold

 

Complete trash

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This games just has the vibe of one where we go down big and rally for a 3 pt win. I hope I'm right, but wish we could just blow people out EVER.

[MrTPlush]

Halftime we need to find out how much the Redskins are paying the refs and offer more.

[pacopete4]

I’m confused. These penalties are blatant.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

We're really doing the pay the refs thing? This is an 8-8 team. Rodgers is holding them up and doing it on one leg.

 

All of the PI/Holding have been legit.

I would like to see some contact to be allowed...some are pretty ticky tack. The Tramon Williams one specifically.

 

Then again that second scoring drive was only alive because of a missed holding call that could not be anymore obvious.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Anybody else just feel kind of disengaged? Maybe it's because the Brewers are still in it for a change. But I'm kind of bored and looking for an excuse to go do something else. I dunno.

Leaves a lot to be desired when Aaron Rodgers hardly sees the field because the defense just lets them march down the field.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Yeah, idk. My interest in football may be waning or maybe I'm just still baseball programmed.

[pacopete4]

So far in this game, I would have thought Capers was still our guy. A bit disappointing because I was high on the Pettine hire.

My interest level really drops when they don't look like a Super Bowl potential squad.

This defense got worse, a ton worse, the second King was hurt. He is out, and that absence not only forced House on the field but exposes guys like Brice even more. The Vikings went right after the secondary after King left and had the long TD to Diggs.

 

If they're going anywhere without an acquisition, King and Josh Jones need to be healthy. King will be a star if he can stop getting hurt.

[brewcrewdue80]

McCarthy genius at its best. Quick 3 step drops for you QB? No. Oh gaining yards rushing? 7yard dropbacks and Rodgers getting hit is such a better playcall.

[young guns]

This defense is making me sad.

[pacopete4]

As is the offense. Just no identity.

[MrTPlush]

Come on refs...how is that called a TD? No duh he is going to have the ball across half a year later when you run up to the line. What a fail...he obviously fell notably short.

 

Impossible to overturn too.

[young guns]

There is no way he scored there. Also whats up with the no timeouts?

[pacopete4]

How you have an Aaron Rodgers and not use timeouts to get the ball back is beyond me. Soooooo dumb. It’s loser football.

[young guns]

Wow. The head on shot clearly shows him short and the. You can see him move the ball forward. Not like i think we would have stopped them on third down, but its the principle of the matter.

[homer]

So maybe it wasn't all Dom Capers' fault?
