Whatever happens to this defense the rest of the way, the outcome is on MLF and this offense. They did everything within their power to make this a game outside of holding them to 3 on the opening 20 yard drive. -
The defense kept it manageable but I don't think it's a winnable game realistically. The defense played a half that was necessary to compete today and got zip from the offense. Missed FG, horrific interception when kinda driving. It's been the same script from all the losses this year. There is definitely a gap that needs closing with where the Packers sit in the top 12 or so teams to get into the top 5.

You keep saying this. There isn't any fooling going on. They were 11-6. They lost all their games to teams with 2 or 3 losses who are clearly superior. Then a game against the Bears where they benched a bunch of guys. They're about as good as the other teams in the league with 6 or 7 losses. That's what their record is, so what fooling is going on?
-
No idea how this game is 10-0. Feels like 31-0.
-
Lol. What in the world was that throw? Did he forget what team Baun was on? My God. They don't come much worse than that.
-
Illegal touching on the Packers off the gunner's arm. The opening play of this game, an illegal hit which caused a fumble we recovered. Packers haven't helped their cause since, but the Eagles haven't done a whole lot honestly.
-
I'm laughing at this point. This is the stamp of this team. If the usual suspects don't mess up, somebody else does.
-
Love is fine. He's not had a great season. It's completely normal for developing QBs to have years like this early in their career. And before anyone says it, yes, Love is a developing QB and having years on the bench isn't a substitute for being a starting QB.
-
I had no expectations of winning this game but the vanilla flavor of the offense is super unimpressive from a coach who's supposed to be offensive minded and innovative.
-
That's looking generous
-
That pass rub on 2nd down removed any dream I had of stealing this game. And I'm calling it a pass rub. They rub into the offensive line. They don't rush.
-
Atrocious. Nixon had that ball. And again I say, why even have instant replay if you're not overturning that.
-
What an awful slate of games thus far.

She is one of the best in the business - in a field that gets a lot of flack for being useless, she makes the effort and makes it as relevant as possible. Smart and talented. -
^I think everyone is in the same boat. The expectations have lowered significantly from just 3 weeks ago, where it looked like a sleeper contender to now where the 6/7th seed feels about right, they are more Rams and less Lions. That said, I don't care, it's a GT about this game, I am of the belief the Packers need a veteran WR this offseason - Chase, Moore, whoever, also irrelevant. They aren't on the team. The Packers need more out of Doubs or Reed to have a chance. That's all I was saying. The passing offense is broken. It's about time for MLF to do some of this scheming I hear he's so good at. Benching Reed for a fumble isn't the answer this week, even if it the answer next year.
-
He was tracking for a big season in the first part of the year though and is clearly a good player. I would think an offensive guru HC would be able to gameplan his best players open. Given how much time the rest of the guys have missed, something seems amiss with what Reed has done this year. I don't know enough if it's him not getting open, poor play selection, Love, I don't know. What is obvious is that they need more from him, particularly with Watson gone. I guess some of us are going to just spleen vent that he "sucks", I don't think he does suck and I don't really care about one stupid fumble. His lack of involvement in the offense predates the Bears game. The entire passing game is just out of whack lately too. I personally get exhausted just throwing every player under the bus constantly and the ridiculous exaggerations about how bad everybody is. It's like watching the games with my brother who is the same constant negativity stream. It's hilarious because I am definitely pessimistic by nature, but some of these takes just make me genuinely wonder if people actually enjoy watching sports ever.

And the point is this: Unless Ja'marr Chase is suiting up for the Packers this weekend, this doesn't really matter, now does it? He's who they have. He's their best WR. They will need him to perform to pull off an upset. Yeesh. Didn't know that was going to be such a trigger.
-
OK - but what are you suggesting? They bench him? Not throw to him? Not sure what your point is here. Fumbles are pretty random events - they more or less happen. They are much less indictive statistically of anything compared to an interception for example, which tend to be less random. A random fumble in a loss where the Packers would still be a 7 seed had they won, in a game where they benched a bunch of guys is a very odd hill to die on. It's much more of a concern that their best WR has 200 yards since October and has barely been thrown to.
-
He has one career fumble. Their best receiver needs to be part of their offense. It's actually shocking he didn't hit 1,000 yards with the first half he had. They don't have the liberty of shunning their best players even if he fumbled five times this season.
-
Take out the Saints game and Jayden Reed has barely over 100 yards in the 2nd half of the season. They should have fixed this about 4 weeks ago. They will need him to reappear to have any chance in this game. That's inexcusable for a supposed offensive guru.
-
It looks bad. It's a better team, we limped in, we're hurt. But for all their warts, the Packers MO just usually isn't getting blown out. Logically, this game shouldn't be very competitive, I think there's at least a 2-score separation, but it always seems to be more dramatic than it needs to be.
-
Has all the makings of a game where no one gives the Packers a chance, they come out and play well, cling to a 3-point lead the entire time and blow it in the 4th in some hysterical way.
-
Watson will go down as one of the biggest "what ifs" for me. He was a remarkable athlete and had crazy size for a guy who ran that well. His first couple games his first season, just watching him sprint, he looked like he was another level than everybody on the field. He just couldn't ever string things together and stay healthy enough. Prior to this ACL thing I just started to accept he was never going to be able to stay on the field. Sad end, he could have been a great player.

Game 17: Bears @ Packers - Sunday, Jan. 5th 12:00 PM
OldSchoolSnapper replied to duewizard's topic in Other Sports
I get what they were thinking. Probably thought the entire play would take a bit too long to get another snap off, so they had everyone sit back thinking they'd run around a little bit even if they caught the ball. The second worst thing about that play was that the man coverage was close enough that the tackle was made immediately. Didn't look like the WR was intent on surrendering himself, so if he'd run another 5 yards, the game is over. It's an idiotic defensive play call no less, and what I haven't seen anyone bring up is that they did the SAME THING against Minnesota. Completely white flagged a FG attempt to end the first half and defended against only a TD for some reason. I've seen this so often where NFL HCs exaggerate how long it takes to run a play in these situations. -
Detroit will win the NFC.
