Game 8: Packers @ Arizona - Thursday, October 28th, 7:20pm

I mean throwing it on on 1st usually works but sort of puts you into tougher decisions from the 2. Glad they took the FG that wasn’t feeling good on 4th

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Dang, I thought that was going right into Savage's chest.

[young guns]

That was not PI. Cobb just whiffed it.

 

Felt more like it should have been a hold when Cobb went to make his break. Was about to escape but the hold kept the DB right on him.

 

Agree MLF miffed that play call on series. Run. Run the clock. What did that take? 40secs off clock if that.

 

Not sure what difference it makes how much clock they ate. They are halfway through Q2.They started the drive from the 3.

 

They only got 3 points instead of 7. That's what went wrong.

Yeah, at that point not running the clock was only giving us more time for our text drive.

 

This defense is making a statement. I'm impressed.

Generous spot

So is the offense, for now. They can move the ball if Rodgers is limited. And if they keep running like this it's going to open things up at some point for Rodgers.

Generous spot

 

I thought so until the replay. If he got anything more than he should, it was inches. His arm with the ball really reached over, then he pulled it back a bit when putting it down.

[adambr2]

I wish they had timeouts to use for the 2 minute drill like ever.

[CheezWizHed]

Rodgers trusting Winfree a lot out there.

[young guns]

I prefer the drop there. The 5 yards wasn't worth the 20 seconds it would have taken

[DuWayne Steurer]

We have only one timeout, and are running the ball on every play.

[CheezWizHed]

I was hoping Rodgers would go deep on that one.

[CheezWizHed]

Hail mary... where is Janis?!?

[jason21nl]

Can’t believe we are settling for a Hail Mary

[OldSchoolSnapper]

We have only one timeout, and are running the ball on every play.

 

Oddly enough, that dropped pass on first down seem to ruin the drive.

[DuWayne Steurer]

We got the ball back with 4 1/2 minutes left, and the best we can get out of it is a 55 yard hail mary. Un. Be. Lievable.

[young guns]

We have only one timeout, and are running the ball on every play.

[sarcasm]MLF learned his lesson from last drive.[/sarcasm]

 

Hailmary in Arizona? Yes please.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Can’t believe we are settling for a Hail Mary

 

Weren't you calling for a blowout loss? You should be happy with a 3pt lead at half.

[adambr2]

Just horrible offensive playcalling on the last 2 series. This is a 10-7 game and it should be 14-7 or 17-7. And part of it is waste of timeouts on previous possessions.

 

Running the ball when we should be passing it, and passing when we should be running. Just a very poor job that half by MLF and Rodgers calling the game.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Can’t believe we are settling for a Hail Mary

 

Weren't you calling for a blowout loss? You should be happy with a 3pt lead at half.

 

 

At least we aren't resting our starters and settling for a strategic loss.

[SeaBass]

Never had a doubt the Packers could make this a game. Nope, not for a second.

Yeah. I was. That literally has nothing to do with me not liking them settling for a Hail Mary

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Man, I won't name names, but guys, everything isn't always horrible and pathetic. The opponent is trying really hard too. The Packers have played a really nice defensive half, moved the ball OK sometimes but sputtered a bit...yeah, should probably have had 7 the last time down and not 3...but we are down a LOT of guys and up 3 on the road with an undefeated team.

 

Even if we lose this game, if it's close, it's still really encouraging to me that we didn't laughed out of the building in prime time against a really good team, which has been an MLF calling card.

Is it settling for a Hail Mary if you don't get past midfield? There is in fact a defense in the way.

[brewcrewdue80]

Well we have the lead. Certainly could make a few adjustments on offense and be more successful than what we have thus far.

On the other side. Kyler Murray had a bad half. Don't expect to hold them to 7pts again this half. We need at least 13 to force 3scores out of them.

They are playing very well defensively. I called for a close game-- even a Packer win before Davante was out.

 

They wasted timeouts and the playcalling was very poor on the last two series which cost them a chance to build a nice cushion in this one. It's ok to call that out.
