Another drive stalled out in opposing territory.
-
You can't start jumping up and down and pointing just because the defender flinched. Doesn't work that way. Another penalty.
-
That draw to Dillon had "read all the way for a 3 yard loss" before it was even snapped.
-
Terrible throw by Love. Wide open.
-
I'm more mad about the poorly coached, undisciplined group on the field.
-
Jimmy Graham. LOL
-
One simple pass and the Saints are threatening to score. Amazing how many ways the Packers find to shoot themselves in the foot.
-
Great execution guys.
-
I mean do we really think he'll be playing Thursday either?
-
Good grief with Bahk. And Watson. Ridiculous.

Chances Craig Counsell pinch hits in game 7 of the World Series?

That would be really cool. The umpires would reject it as an illegal substitution and not allow him to bat, of course, but it would be a memorable moment to see him throw on a helmet, grab a bat and try it. -
Brewers (Houser) vs Cardinals (Thompson): 9/20/23, 6:45pm
adambr2 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Archived Game Threads
We've seen people all the time point out how having a certain player on the field caused a good defensive play to happen, usually said by mentioning the difference between that player and the replaced one. Never seemed like a big deal to me, more of a compliment for the player on the field than anything else. -
I'm not going solely by box score. I watched the entire game and that wasn't the impression I got at all and I definitely think the stats bear that out. Sure looked to me like we were just getting shredded on the ground. I was texting a friend of mine when it was 24-12 and we were discussing how we both felt we were fortunate the score was what it was because Atlanta had played pretty well, particularly in running the ball and left some points on the board. Did some things well defensively in the first three quarters that we can hopefully build on. Agree that Bijan is an uber generational talent that will shred a lot of defenses this year. Couldn't figure out why the Falcons were bothering to pass much at all. Agree to disagree on most of the rest of it.

How can you say we weren't gashed before the 4th quarter? Our own HC said it...Bijan was 14 for 108 going into the 4th quarter...almost 8 YPC! I'm not even disagreeing with you on some of the other stuff, I'm not excusing our offense or the way they shut down in the 4th quarter, I'm not necessarily disagreeing that fatigue was an issue in Q4, I'm just befuddled that you can say that we weren't getting gashed well before the 4th quarter when I've presented complete statistical evidence to the contrary. It's not like there was one big run that Bijan sprung for 90 yards that skewed the stats, it was huge chunk plays, 8, 9 yards, frequently throughout Q1 to Q3. And that last paragraph was really unnecessary and condescending IMO; I should be free to point out my concerns with our rush defense and debate their performance with you without sarcastic and passive aggressive questions about which team I cheer for, and I'm not going to respond to that paragraph beyond that.

In many ways, they seem like the exact same Packers to me. That's both a blessing and a curse. High level QB who can make all the throws in a clean pocket but struggle against a consistent pass rush. An offense that can be so fluid and smooth at times and can be stagnant when they get conservative and go into clock management mode. A maddeningly inconsistent defense that looks like a bunch of playmakers flying around a lot of the time, and other times looks like they can't stop the worst teams in football. I can't put my finger around why Joe Barry is the problem- I'm not qualified to know the why - but this defense is consistently less than the sum of its parts, and there's only been one constant the last 3 years. It would be one thing if this was a guy who had had success everywhere he's been before-- I'd be more inclined to put the actual talent under the microscope - but that's not the case. I believe this defense has talent. A lot of it. I'd go as far as to say it's around the same talent level as the 2009 and 2010 Packers teams. The most important thing, as others have said, is that it appears that Jordan Love will be great at best, and competent at worst. Everything else we can address, but not having to go back to square one at QB like so many teams do is huge.
-
It's not about being a fan of any particular team? I'm just trying to look at it from an impartial viewpoint and concede that in a lot of ways we weren't really the better team yesterday, we just can be but have work to do to get there. And the Falcons were at nearly 6 YPC coming into the 4th quarter. If it was just a 4th quarter problem where we clearly just got worn down, it would be less of a red flag but we were getting gashed long before it was 24-12. Which has been a longstanding problem with the rush D.
-
As a Darrel Henderson owner last year and Cam Akers owner this year I have absolutely no trust in what Sean McVay is going to do at RB between now and the end of the season.
-
I agree. I started the whole draft thread back in the spring about how we should take him at #15 if there and was mostly dismissed and told we should never take an RB that early. Of course, he never would have made it there anyway.
-
Bijan is definitely going to be really special and give a lot of teams headaches. Allgier looks like just a guy. Our defensive strengths are definitely not a great matchup on our side for what they do well.
-
For sure, agreed. I do mostly dynasty so I think I am more looking from that perspective as I think time is probably running short on the career of Cooper Kupp especially with the growing history of hamstring injuries.
-
So is Puka the real deal?
-
I still don't understand why you don't still just try the FG. 56 is obviously not a chip shot, but it's not out of any kicker's range in this day and age. Is MLF afraid to challenge rookies? It's within his range and it's in a dome. Just send him out there and try it. Unless you think he's going to miss 56 short (he's not), makes no sense why those 5 yards are a deal breaker. I hate the age old practice of punting in fringe FG range and likely ending up with a touchback and netting only 20-25 yards of field position in exchange for giving up a scoring opportunity.
-
The "if we just made this play, this play or this play, it changes everything" argument could be made in almost any game. Yeah, Ridder made some mistakes that we didn't take advantage of. Love also threw one in the 4th on 3rd down that could have been a pick 6. The penalty yardage on the long PIs skewing the yardage totals is a fair point. I just think when you allow 450 yards and are, as our own HC put it, "gashed consistently" on the ground all day, you don't have a very good case for saying you played well enough to win. We lost, and there's plenty that went into that. Both sides caught some breaks at times, as NFL games go. Do I think we can beat Atlanta? Sure, being at full strength would help, but we have to do much better stopping the run.
-
The Falcons left a lot of points on the board. A lot. Yardage totals may not mean much to you, but I bet you can't find many games where a team is outgained by 200+ yards and wins. As a whole, the team with the yardage advantage wins a game in the NFL over 65% of the time.
-
I'm sure that the Falcons feel that way too. Hollins feels he should have kept his heels in, they all feel like they should have been able to convert 1st and goal from the 1. Koo feels like he should have made the XP. Green Bay had about exactly half the total yards of Atlanta today. They were gashed the entire game on the ground and for the most part, outplayed. It's hard to make the case that they "should" have won. They played plenty poorly enough to lose. It just mostly happened in the 4th.
