49ers were the better team. Although, I can't help think what a difference Casey Hayward and Morgan Burnett could have made. I think with those two, maybe Boldin only gets 8 catches for 142 yards.

Although I feel the 49ers were the better team and the refs had virtually no impact, that was a push off by Boldin on the 4th and 2 play in the 4th quarter, and Bush was held twice on Kaep's big scramble.

The killers for the Packers were Sitton's multiple penalties throughout the day.. momentum killers.

The silver lining that I seen.. the Packers late established a physical run game in the last TD drive.. if they can build on that, it will make this team start to fulfill MM marching orders to become more physical intimidating team.

No excuses here...we entered a heavyweight battle and came up a bit short. I think our defence played much more physical than last year and the tackling for the most part was solid hard hits.
Jordy came back with a vengeance...sure hands and excellent field awareness. Aaron excellent as always but his protection is more of the same from last season. How many high draft choices have we wasted without getting solid production. I'm really thinking we need a coaching shakeup on the oline...we just can't get it done. Tiny or nonexistent holes to run through and a heavy QB pressure on a three man hail mary rush...WTF.
Special teams...gut the coaching staff there also...another year... another three ring circus on special teams. What a comedy of errors...we can be more prepared to play special teams. There was a flag on almost every kick...and Ross...he should be coached smarter than that...
Overall i think were in for another great competitive season of Packer Football...Bring on the Redskins!!!

The Niners played a better game. That's different than saying they are a better team. We play 'em ten times, we will win 6 or 7. Yeah, our O Line is awful; Yeah, even though our D played better, they are not up to the level of the Niners; But even though Kaepernick is damn good (especially the games against the Packers), Aaron Rodgers is so much better that he makes the overall Packers team equal or better than the Niners - and it's absolutely between us and them for best in the NFL.

"Best" team? I dunno. Despite the last two games, I'm not sure who the best team will be at the end of the year. It's only week one, after all.

Right now, though:

1. I'm not sure the Packers can beat San Francisco without playing their best.
2. San Francisco beat GB without playing their best (see run game).
3. Based on 1. and 2., I would say that SF is _better_ at the moment.

Fortunately for GB, "better in week 1" isn't what matters. "Better in weeks 17 and later" is what matters.

So, in your eyes, we beat them 6-7 times out of 10? Well, we're already 0-3. So, we win out the next 7? Wow.

Maybe we are not watching the same games.

IMO Kaepernick has a perfect situation -- a great OL, a solid running game, and a coach who knows how to maximize his skill set. While Rodgers may have the third, he doesn't have anything approaching the first and doesn't yet have the second.

But as far as skill sets go, IMO, he's not close to Rodgers. Kaepernick is an above-average quarterback made into a good one by the fortune of his situation. Rodgers is an All-Pro reduced to merely above-average by his.

Kinda getting tired of hearing how GREAT Colin K is when he's started what 11 games? Reminds me of the hoopla over Cam Newton.

Zero2Cool (2h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (3h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
