just got home from the game. It was a disappointing game. I thought Tolzien's passes were horrid. I can't believe s pro or even a D 1 college QB would throw sidearm passes.

What was the most annoying was the Eagle fans. Foul and obnoxious. Some jerk with a foul moth a couple of rows behind me had been giving unprovoked grief. A woman one row behind me late in the 3rd quarter stood up and chewed him out telling him not to disrespect her or other fans. That he was a guest here.

We didn't hear a word from him or any other Eagle fans the rest of the day.

Best part of the day was watching the parachutists land on the field even though it was a pretty stiff wind. I don't know if the tv audience got to see it. That was so cool.

That side arm pass was better than the alternative, which was a sack. Stafford throws passes like that often. Tolzien looked serviceable as a backup QB, but not much else.

I thought that sidearm pass was one of his better decision throws. He knew if he threw it traditionally it'd get slapped down so he adjusted on the fly and made the completion.

Why he didn't hit James Jones over the middle for the TD and instead threw a difficult pass to Jordy Nelson in the endzone, no idea about that one. Jones looked like he was breaking wide open well before Tolzien threw.

I don't mean the pass that he threw as he rolled out to the right. A few of his other passes were not over the top. What did he have 3 or 4 passes blocked by the DL? Some of them were if not sidearm were 3/4. A few others that didn't get knocked down were like that too.

He made some bad throws and even more bad decisions. However, he still looked like a serviceable backup to me, especially considering how little reps he has probably received. He may not be an exceptional back up QB, but if the defense could step up their game and play like their super star QB is out, Tolzien would at least give the Packers a chance. That's about as much as you can hope for with your back up QB, most of the time.

Datone Jones will pick up another sack or two this day as well.

agreed. I am not complaining about him like I did Wallace. I think he could be a half way decent backup for a few years.
