GAMEDAY!!!!!!!!!

I see this 34 - 24 to the Pack

Will not be in chat tonight as kick off is 1:30AM here in the UK and the game is live on TV.

Will grab a few hours sleep, get up at 1AM for the build up and as soon as the game clock hits zero at the end of the 4th back for more zz's before getting back up again at 7:45 for work. Still it's a Friday though so only 1 day in work to survive.

I just feel we have too many offensive weapons and an excellent D for the Saints to be able to keep up with us if it got to a shootout.

I see most of the Saints scoring being mop up scores late in the game.

The Saints know we have Finley returning so I am convinced they will try to take him out of the game, but because of this it will free up Jennings and Nelson to have a big game. If we can get the passing game going early it should allow Grant and Starks to get good gains in the 2nd half.

12 1/2 hours to go until kick off.

GO PACK GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My biggest worry is the run defense. I predict that the run D will be tested early and often. I hope that the offense actively tries to get short passes and runs early in order to establish some rhythm and control the clock somewhat. I remember early last year I thought there was too much emphasis on taking deep shots at the expense of moving the ball.

I think this game could seriously come down to turnoffs and how does the GB pass protection hold up against the NO pass rush?

It is distracting to be in chat... your all welcome to a spot on the couch here.. help yourself to a drink and grub, but I make no promises on my behavior, graciousness as a host and outbursts during the game.. lol.

Submersed in the game... just how I am wired.

Easiest way to neutralize a pass rush is to run or screen upon them.. while I don't respect the NO pass rush like other contenders in the NFC.. just the same I would like to see a bit more balanced attack, assisting the line in protection and keeping Rodgers cleaner and really opening up the passing attack even more. It simply would be a unstoppable offensive team if we can, albeit late last season we were close to it sans the balance.

I want to be a dominant football team from start to finish this season.. creating a imposing swagger upon the opposition even before the opening kickoff.. a team that creates doubt in hatching the run/pass defensive philosophy of the opposing coaches game plan for the weekend tilt.

We have the potential to be such a team.. I want to see it realized. [grin1]

The smiley was intended to convey some facetiousness. 😝

I myself often ignore the chat room for long stretches at a time, because it does get distracting. It is often ahead of the feed, even when I am watching it on live TV, and that can spoil some of the most exciting plays. Plus I like to hang out with the other fans watching the game at the bar.

I have always just found the explanation "because it's on live TV" to be odd, that's all. There seems to me to be plenty of better reasons not to be there. [down]

Yeah I try to go to the Chat Room. I am too old. (Thus my avatar.) It gives me a headache sometimes and I get distracted and miss too much of the game. I have used it during breaks like halftime.

Glad Zero gives us many ways to express ourselves. 👍

I am not being anti social.. the game is one of the few times I demand it be my down time.. unplugged so to speak. That an dart night in the falls. [grin1]

We'll be in the chat room. Or why did I say "we?" I'll be in the chat room. Mrs. Z will be making me drinks. Unfortunately, there will be no topless women tonight. Dammit!

Well, at least I get to see the Packers beat the Saints.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
