This team is good enough to put other teams away. Like the 96 team did. Did they get beat in 96? Sure. They got creamed in Indianapolis. Still, they didn't consistently let shitty teams hang around, then end up narrowly beating them or having some fluke disaster strike to lose the game. They also didn't have to barely squeak into the playoffs.
I'd just like to see them blow the Broncos out of the water, but something tells me that "flukes" will happen and the Broncos will hang around to the very end.

What matters is accumulating enough wins in the early season to be in the playoff picture, then hitting stride late in the season just like we did.

Gameday Chat is a great place to go to see some grown men act like a 5 year old spoiled kid at Walmart with snot running out of his nose, while screaming and having a fit because he can not have a toy.

Gameday Chat is a place where for some, sensibility goes to die.

Gameday Chat is also a place to go to learn a great deal about the game of football. Thanks to the special people who contribute a great deal of knowledge about the game.

Your bias drips from your keyboard. You rail against the negativity that manifests in the chat room, while passing completely over the raucous moments of rejoicing that also occur. Has it ever occurred to you the emotional roller coaster of football is precisely what attracts some people to the sport? If people wanted to be pretty Pollyannas the entire time, they'd be attracted to something less raw, masculine and primal. Something like -- oh, I don't know -- tennis.

Haven't you heard? Self-righteousness is trending!

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

I actually rail against the negativity that might manifest itself into my personal life. God forbid I scream out "YOU FUCKING CUNT' To a waitress if my egss are cold. or.. "YOU FUCKING LITTLE HOMO" the next time my 12 year old nephew accidentally spills his milk. However If I ever do.. And my nephew starts to cry.. I will just tell little Atty that he is completely passing over the raucous moments of rejoicing that also occur when he brings home his report card from school.

It is a very slippery slope when you act one way in one aspect of your life, and act another way in another aspect of your life." Like it or not Nonstop. Good people do not type stuff like some of the crap that goes on in Gameday Chat. Take Trom for example.. He makes me laugh and types some real raunchy stuff, but he is never vindictive and out right ignorant.

By The Way... I bet you did not even read the last paragraph of my original post.

Nerdmann, I know you have some serious psychosis around this loss to Arizona, but you need to know it doesn’t prove every point about the Packers you are trying to make.

I might be convinced (probably not) that it’s a bad thing that the Packers win games in which they allow teams to “hang around.” But the 2009 Arizona playoff overtime loss is not an example of such.

I'm actually on record as saying that loss was a fluke. Point being that, when you are a clearly superior team, it is better to shut the door on lesser teams, rather than consistently letting them hang around.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
