Game 3: Packers @ Saints - Sunday, September 27th, 7:20PM

King might as well be wearing a bullseye.

[HiAndTight]

Yeah, it's surprising that they don't though. Statistically teams have greater success on 2 pt conversions running than passing.

 

Probably because defenses are more balanced.

 

1st and 2nd down you see a lot of those wide open PA passes with the TE and RB in the corner and the flat. On 4th though, they may take out a DL and put in another safety/CB.

[HiAndTight]

It may be MORE frustrating when they get a stop for 1 yard on 2nd and 2 since you know they're not stopping the run 2 plays in a row.

[yourout]

Unless the saints turn it over there will be no stops

[trwi7]

Feel like I'm watching a Bret Bielema defense with the corners playing 10 yards off the receivers and then back peddling on the snap.

Better keep scoring, because you'll probably need 35 to win.

King might as well be wearing a bullseye.

 

He should consider himself fortunate the Saints are without Thomas today, or he'd likely have to be scraped off the field with a spatula.

[yourout]

Huge drive here.

[HiAndTight]

That did NOT look catchable...

[FVBrewerFan]

Thank you

[trwi7]

That did NOT look catchable...

 

That back angle showed it like 5 yards over his head and a couple yards out of bounds. Was shocked when they threw the flag and even more shocked when they didn't pick it up.

[HiAndTight]

No OPI? Wow...

[adambr2]

That will do!

[trwi7]

I don't see the push off that they see there.

[FVBrewerFan]

You go old man!!!

[yourout]

Good no call.

Should have been defensive holding first anyway

[lcbj68c]

Wow. OPI all day.

 

Well...on second and third looks, he might not push and rather just get his hands up. DB didnt really look disrupted, but rather looks like he got his own hands off at the same time worried about DPI?

Great catch, regardless of the separation he created.

Rodgers second career touchdown pass to a first rounder!

Is this true? Holy crap.

[adambr2]

That's a good no call. Would have been pretty weak IMO. But I definitely think the officiating has been to our benefit today.

Yes. Was a television graphic early in the 2nd quarter, IIRC.

I can't believe you haven't heard this. It was THEE stat being mentioned. Basically on a loop when the Packers didn't draft a WR'er in the 1st round.

 

Like Jennings, Nelson, Jones, Jennings, Finley, Adams, all the good receivers we've had, they're not 1sts, so the Packers haven't given Rodgers enough weapons.

This was also made a big deal of by the media after the draft.

Jenkins threw himself back because he was afraid to run into Lewis without his head turned around. I didn't really see any meaningful extension by Lewis.
