After how hard our secondary played and the return by special teams to keep us in the game I don't want to hear we didn't deserve to win. There were players out ther TRYING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. I don't want to do a diservice to their effort by saying we didn't deserve to win. Just my opinion.

You want to finish your career here?

I would have to agree with that. If you have a chance to win it with a FG at the end... you deserved to win it. And implying that we didn't deserve means that Minny did... and any team that throws that many picks and has a chance to lose it late...really can't say they deserved it either. We didnt get it done and this bogus penalty call didn't help. But great teams over come bad calls and we didn't.

Early on there were a number of bad calls. The one on Al Harris kept their drive going. The holding call on Driver stalled one of our drives. That's TWO series they directly affected with B.S. penalties, plus this questionable call.

Jim Rome just got done ranting about this call on his radio show. It was freaking hilarious. He kept impersonating the ref saying things like

illegal forward pass ... no wait uuuuh uuuuuuuuh intentional grounding... no uuuuh illegal use of the hands yeah yeah no wait encroachment yeah thats it uuuuh wait no uuuuuuh facemask 15 yard penalty...

It was B.S. period.
Rodgers threw the ball underhand in the area of a receiver.
Thats ALL he had to do in that situation.
Thats NOT an illegal pass OR intentional grounding.
The refs don't even know the rules they are supposed to be inforcing.

I bet that ref was wearing purple boxers.

Bad calls happen all the freaking time.. this one went against us.. we had plenty of yellow laundry on the field that had more of an effect on this game than this single call..

Actually the rule for intentional grounding says ball has to land AT or beyond los..

the ball landed at the 8.5 yard line los was the 10

I think the idea is that point is moot if there was a receiver in the area.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
