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 Mike McCarthy 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.

Mucky Tundra (16m) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (6h) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (10h) : Merry Christmas!

beast (19h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
