That was great coaching by Mike to keep aaron passing and spreading the ball around. We even mixed in a couple runs that got decent yardage but hey we can't complain. We made a statement today and it starts with the coach making the decision for us to keep the pressure on.

What do you have against the WR situation?

I don't know if Nonstop agrees, but my faith in Jones as a viable replacement for Driver is dwindling. I've been as big an advocate of his as anyone, but his ill-timed drop/fumble each game, much like a Clifton false start have become too common.
But this is a great day so I don't mean to introduce doom and gloom. Great dominating performance, and I'd add this is a notch in the "big game victory" belt for both Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy.

Heres the thing about Jones, he has all the talent in the world and can make all the plays asked of him, his flaw is his drops. But you can fix that, you can't fix a lack of talent. He knows it's a problem and I expect him to fix it by next season.

He certainly didn't show those flaws today. It is just one game and he is still growing as a coach, but it is nice to see progress in the way he's coached the game. I don't care what anyone says, I have seen him grow as a coach since the Tampa Bay loss of last season. That was a turning point for him. He's had stumbles since then, but he always manages to right the ship in time for a must-win game.

I fully agree with that. I've said earlier I trust Mike in must win games, far more than games we are strongly expected to win.

I have to say, huge huge huge Thumbs Up for Mike McCarthy. When we were up by 2 TDs with like 8 minutes left, a lot of coaches run twice and pass once just to kill the clock some more but he went for the throat and continued the passing because it was working! Sounds obvious but enough coaches don't have the guts to do it.

Yes, I was saying in the chat that we were Bill Belichicking the Giants. I was loving it. Revenge for taking away our Lombardi Trophy in 2007. I honestly thought we'd beat the Patriots that year. We were well matched against them. Al Harris was still elite and so was Woody. Kampy was a beast and would have gotten through even the Pats elite OL. Favre had his best year since '97. That was our year.

Giants beat the Patriots because of their pass rush, which we did not have and would have lost against the Patriots.

I think I'd have liked to seen it played out instead of not knowing.

I'd be more comfortable letting Jordy go. The reason Jones is so inconsistent is because he's the #3 receiver. Move him up, give him more opportunities, and he'll produce more.

Aaron Rodgers is the kind of QB smart enough to use everything he has at his disposal. This wasn't the case early on in the season, since he kept forcing balls to Finley.

Until now, Jones' is best year was his rookie year and that was way back when Favre played. The man's favorite receiver was Driver, so he obviously had more opportunities, while Jennings was being the recipient for all of Favre's milestone passes.

Going back to the subject at hand: McCarthy called an excellent game today, and his mean Pittsburgh background finally reared its ugly head. This team, aside from the lack of a dangerous running game, looks better than it did in the 2007 campaign, and we all know how great that team was. I've always been about the "kick em while they're down" mentality, and Green Bay needs to continue this aggressive surge on the league.

You must be confusing years. We didn't have a pass rush in '08. In '07, Kampy was a Pro Bowler. KGB hadn't lost it yet (he had 9.5 sacks), and C Williams had 7 from up the middle. We would have gotten in Brady's face.

We also could have kept up with their scoring machine. Favre was on fire and Grant had the best year he's ever had, averaging 5.1 ypc and 956 yards, 8 TDs in only 7 games started.

I think we were well matched, homerism aside.

Again, our pass rush was not that of the Giants.
Again, I'd rather have seen it played out and known for sure.


Homerism aside my white keester.

Zombie-It would have been a good matchup, but I agree with Z2C on this one. Giants won because of their ferocious pass rush. Ours was good, but not on the par with the Giants. But really, without the game being played, we're never going to know, so there's not a whole lot of traction to argue about it...
