I disagree. Shocking. [boxing]

Rodgers is winless at Tampa...he threw 3 picks in both games. Tampa wasn't very good either year we lost down there.

The last time we played there Tampa was 0-7 and beat us by 10... they finished 3-13. So,, I'm more than a little concerned about the outcome at Raymond James.

I get your point of past struggles but TB is a dumpster fire being run by a has been staff. Loss 🙄 but injuries should be a concern because we can't afford to go into the play offs beat up or short handed.

uffda--so what on the previous TB games? They were different games under different circumstances.

I'm expecting that the team will show up after last week's loss to the Bills, with a bye and homefield in the playoffs on the line.

If they don't, against a 2-12 Bucs team, it will say a lot about them and I might have to join uffda's side.

God forbid. That would be miserable... [puke]

Great. Now I'm picturing uffda as the emperor from Star Wars...

Pack just had a 5 game win streak snapped.
Another 5 game win streak will make them winners.
Packers beat Tampa and Detroit means #2 seed and first round bye.
Packers win the next 3 games and there you have it.

Time to get win #1 today.

As to uffda, I picture him more as...

I am chosen by many but taken by no one.

Edit, I meant to say GOOD, how is the loss GOOD for the Packers. I am thinking it is bad because if Packers have same record as them, Packers get the nod due to head to head.

Though it may say something about YOUR Christmas presents, Zero... [boxing]

Here's a meaningless fact that they had in the paper, but I liked it anyway:

In his pas 15 starts immediately following a loss, Aaron Rodgers is 15-0 with a 47-7 TD-INT ratio. In the three games following a loss this year, Rodgers had 13 TDs and no INTs.

We couldn't exorcise the demon of Buffalo. I hope we at least end this losing streak in Tampa.

We don't play well on the road. Name a road game we were dominant in this season. We've won 3...Chicago would be our best performance, yet, we gave up a few yards shy of 500 yards of O to the Bears. We barely escaped Miami, and had a tough time in Minnesota...and those are our 3 wins. We ain't even talking about the 4 road losses. We aren't good on the road. Period. The heat has never been our friend and acts in reverse to how we think it jacks with warm weather teams coming to Lambeau in December. Don't count your chickens on this one.

You do a pretty good job in most of your posts explaining why you don't think the Packers are very good or why they may not be as good as the rest of us think they are or why you think they may lose to certain teams but for this you rely on "Rodgers is winless in Tampa" and "The last time we played there Tampa was 0-7 and beat us by 10" I guess that means we can chalk every visit to Buffalo up to a loss. Good thing it only happens only once every 8 years.

If it's the latter then yeah I respect that opinion. In fact I'm probably in the minority with mine. For the record I don't think the Packers OR the Lions will lose today its just more of a gut feeling, most likely influenced somewhat by the fact that I am a Packer fan, that if one of them will lose it will be the Lions. Like you say, that kool aid is some good shit.

As McBob said I do not expect the Packers to lay an egg two weeks in a row. I also don't think the Bucs are as talented as the Bears and both are probably equally dysfunctional at this point. Lastly if you believe in trap games and looking past teams I think the Lions are more susceptible to it this week than the Packers are. Finally, while I don't think Clausen is as good as Cutler this may be his last chance to show that he can play and he may play out of his mind.

Don't get me wrong, like I said I don't expect the Bucs or the Bears to win but unless Trestman deliberately tries to derail the Bears (which he may have already done by benching Cutler) I just think they have a better chance at winning than the Bucs do.

That said my gut feeling is probably no more legitimate than your past performance dictates future results stance.

We aren't looking like a team that has any business being anywhere near the playoffs. The 2nd half vs. Atlanta to the present, we've been dreadful. Not a good way to end the season.

Zero2Cool (1h) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (1h) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (1h) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (2h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (3h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (3h) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (3h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

dfosterf (3h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

beast (12h) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (13h) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (15h) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (15h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (17h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (18h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (18h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (20h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : CB and OG in FA, narrows down the top of the draft board a little

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : Meh....I hope we can get Ward 49ers or Murphy Vikings
