    Hey, at least it involves the "World." I'll do the same thing I did for the ALCS. Not pay attention until a clinch game.

    Call me petty but I am 100% in for Toronto solely because of the 2014 NFCG and the Fail Mary, the latter of which I attended and got harassed endlessly walking out of the stadium. Seattle can pound sand and go 300 years without one.

    Looking forward to the game but it lacks the animosity of Packers vs Favre. I'm still a fan of Aaron so I don't feel slighted if he plays really well and wins. I'd be happy for him. I will be hoping we get the victory, but hoping for an entertaining night.

    All our wins have been like this with the exception of the Lions. So was the loss and the tie. WAS we were in control the whole time but the outcome never should have been in any doubt the way it was. We haven't beaten a good team outside of Detroit Week 1. Fortunately there aren't style points and we are 4-1-1, but there's plenty to not like.

    We had the best O-line in the league and Ahman Green was averaging 6.5 YPC that game with 150+ yards. That's what made it so horrific. But Sherman was always a scaredy-cat.

    Online play required "Fair Play" settings turned on which forced you to kick FGs or Punts based on their formula that nobody quite knew. It might let you go for it and 4th and 1 from the 40, but on 4th and 12 you were only allowed to choose 'punt'. It was in the game from around 2001ish to whenever I stopped playing. You were almost always required to punt from your own side of the field unless it was the 4th with little time left. Edit: Debuted in '04, phased out by '10. So it isn't a thing anymore.

    I don't play Madden anymore and haven't for over a decade, but I can't help but wonder what all the changes on 4th down have done to "Fair Play" that used to force you to punt.

    I am assuming he would have nailed the FG and it still makes little sense to me to kick it. You are hoping for OT if he makes the kick, with an outlier chance you can win the game in regulation by getting the ball back with a 3 and out. You are essentially hoping for a likely < 50% at a win. You're putting everything on the defense, which has not played well, whether you make or miss the kick, too. Why are we paying this guy $220 million if we don't trust him to convert 4th and 2 against the Cardinals? The touchdown putting them up 4 was a HUGE advantage. Forcing AZ to have to go the length of the field. The only mistake I thought of watching it was that they scored too fast.

    It was 100% the right call even had we lost the game. No faith in that defense to prevent them from gaining the 5 yards that would have put them in FG range after we let them return the kick to the 50. The dumb call IMO was AZ going for it on 4th down QB sneak with a 3-pt lead. Dumb might be harsh as I think at least 1/3 of coaches do the same, but there are good teams who would take that chance to pin us deep and just not give up a TD.

    The manner in which you win really doesn't matter until about December 15 as frustrating as it is to watch. Especially when you are missing key guys. I'd like to think the offense will get it together if Reed and Watson and can stay on the field. I am concerned about coverage, both just looking bad and NEVER getting interceptions, and the interior of that OL, but at least the Packers have a track record of figuring that out as things move along. I think we can see why the Packers are not discussing a contract with Jenkins either. Still believe this can be a Super Bowl team, but they are not getting some cakewalk to the NFCCG like it was suggested after two games.

    We're headed to the Super Bowl!
  12. OldSchoolSnapper
    I was saying the same thing. But he's not in the game.

    Step 1: don't have your flight delayed 5 hours

    What is the gap between our and the opponent's average starting yard line?
  15. OldSchoolSnapper
    That's precisely why that signing made no sense to me. They even had similar injury concerns. The only real difference I saw was Hobbs was more aggressive at the LOS and physical, but after the sneaky ok season Stokes had and the cost to sign him, I would have just done that.
  16. OldSchoolSnapper
    We just don't have a down field offense. Watson and Reed would help.
  17. OldSchoolSnapper
    He's on it. Said it before the season. When the team president publicly says he's not doing extensions until after the season, that's a coded message. I truly think MLF getting fired is a real possibility if there isn't a deep run - which I also think is a real possibility. His big sexy record is smoke and mirrors. He racked up wins with Rodgers winning tons of games.
  18. OldSchoolSnapper
    It was very clear when we lost to Cleveland and gave up 40 to Dallas in a tie that we were hands down the most overrated team in the league through 2 weeks. Parsons has been what he was advertised to be for the most part, but he doesn't play interior OL or secondary and this team is not the juggernaut that was going to just roll through and only have to worry about the Eagles.
  19. OldSchoolSnapper
    That's the joke.
  20. OldSchoolSnapper
    These games have been kinda sucky to watch even when we win, mostly because the offense never seems to find a rhythm. I still get the feeling there's a gear they haven't quite hit offensively, which is ok. That happens all the time in the NFL. But yuck right now.
  21. OldSchoolSnapper
    He was a bright young offensive mind with Aaron Rodgers throwing 45 TDs.
  22. OldSchoolSnapper
    Super Bowl contenders shouldn't be struggling with the likes of Cleveland, Dallas, Arizona and Cincinnati (arguable) regardless of where the game is. It's acceptable to tough out one of those games, but it's habitual. We either just aren't very good or something is wrong.
  23. OldSchoolSnapper
    It would be reassuring to blow the doors off one of these crappy teams we've played, but we don't seem capable of doing that yet.
  24. OldSchoolSnapper
    Incomplete pass
  25. OldSchoolSnapper
    We're 4/6 on 4th down this season. Love is paid a lot of money to make that throw. Not a particularly difficult throw. Had protection, he needs to make it. I am not seeing what MLF has to do with that failure.
