Yeah, I don't think we have much of a "home field advantage" anymore. If anything, the threat of horrible weather really concerns me with this team. At least when they are traveling to a dome, I'm pretty confident we can score many points. Playoffs in Lambeau just doesn't seem to suit this team very well, at least until we get back to playing top 5 defense.

Last six playoff games at Lambeau: 2-4.

WTF?

Still, looking back, a good learning experience for 🇹🇹 and 🇲🇲. D still matters, even with all the rules trying to make defenders play with their hands tied behind their backs.

I want to see us acquire someone who can get to the QB, preferably from the DL. Raji isn't that man. Cullen Jenkins was.

At least we're the first team in NFC North to sweep division ... That's one thing to be happy about!

Which also means P Manning will retire with no significant records.

. . . who ridiculed the few of us who were sounding the alarm all season long about this defense owe use a huge fucking apology.

I've been saying the entire season this team would not win a single playoff game. I've been called every name in the book, had my fanhood questioned, been told I was stupid for not believing that it wouldn't get fixed.

You ignored the irrefutable fact that history is replete with examples of dominant offenses that fell on their faces in the playoffs when they came up against solid defenses. A couple of exceptions here and there don't change that overwhelming trend.

Defense wins championships. Period.

I want to call you guys the same names you called me, but I'll settle for an apology from you. Or even just an admission you were wrong.

I literally want to puke.

You need something, whether it's pass rush or a running game. For the Packers it was defense last year, specifically their secondary. The bottom line is the '11 Packers were a one trick pony and it finally caught up with them.

Along with the obvious adjustments that need to be made on O and Defense, I would like to hear Mike McCarthy at least pay lip service to recovering the Lambeau mystique. All of the players should be totally ashamed for letting down all the fans at the stadium last night.

1965 - We beat the Colts 13-10 in OT, then go on to win the Championship 23-12 over the Browns
1967 - We beat the Rams 28-7 then beat the Cows in the Ice Bowl. If anyone doesn't know the final score by heart, they should be ashamed of themselves. I'm not going to say it

(For the record, we didn't lose any Playoff games at home before Lombardi either)

Then in 1982, we finally host a Playoff game for the first time since 1967. We beat the Cardinals 41-16. I remember this game like it was yesterday. This was such a fun year. Lynn Dickey threw 4 TD passes, including 2 to John Jefferson, one to James Lofton (who was at the time my favorite player ever), and one to Eddie Lee Ivory.

Then we don't even see the Playoffs again until Brett Lorenzo Favre becomes a Packer. Immediately, the team turns around. We make the Playoffs in 1993 then host the first Playoff game in 12 seasons in '94, beating the Lions 16-12. The next year, we win the division and beat the Falcons 37-20.

The very next year, we beat the Niners 35-14. Weirdly, our D was so dominant that Favre only has to throw 15 times (1 TD, no INTs). Then we beat the Panthers 30-13, then go on to win the SB.

97 - we don't have home field advantage as the Niners do. We only host one Playoff game and we beat the Bucs 21-7.

2001 - We're a wild card team and host the Niners. We beat them 25-15.

It was 2002 when we lost our first Playoff game at home. I got so mad after the game because it was like a curse after that. Home was no longer a good place in the Playoffs.

Weirdly, it's like the curse hasn't been lifted. We won the SB last year without playing a single playoff game at home.

I kind of wish we had our playoff games away now; remember someone making a thread about this. Dome or warm weather = ball that is more catchable; heck probably easier to throw also.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If that's the case in which I agree that it could be harder to catch / throw ... Then I would have to say giving Aaron Rodgers 2 bye weeks and having some WR's not take some snaps late in the last game is an error. Rodgers should of at least played 1 half to feel the flow, I guess resting them was a mistake.

From now, let's always get the last seed please rather go in domes, I feel more safe & confident.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

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?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

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
