Some fans are bitching and moaning. We won by 17 on the road and covered the spread. We left a bunch of points on the field. Our Defense played great again. Hopefully they can step up next week when it really matters.

My only concerns from this game (not a new problem):

Mike McCarthy playcalling in the red zone and short yardage situations.
Still giving up big plays on 3rd and long.

Naming Burnett a playoff captain worked wonders for him this game. He played a great game.

Keep in mind the opponents' offenses are in fact offensive.

That said, the Packers at least held serve, or in nerdmann's terms, they didn't "shit" themselves.

Mad props to Lacy and Rodgers for gutting it out despite health issues. Love to see that.

I had no issue with the goal line plays other than the 5-Wide play. To me you always want to threaten the run in that situation.

Gosh, Morgan Burnett was an animal this game.

Call me weird but I agree Burnett had a great game and I think that was a very bad thing.

Burnett played LB against Tampa it seemed he had no responsability against the passing game. That's logical if you think you are facing a zombie at QB.

But the fact that his best game comes when he is not playing his real position is a red flag to me. I want a safety back there that will intercept any misstimed pass, that will help any blundered coverage and that will make any QB afraid of throwing to the middle. So far we don't have such a player.

Fact is, they won. It wasn't pretty, but they WON. In the end, that is all that matters when you are in the position to win your division.
Hopefully Aaron Rodgers will be able to make the plays we are used to seeing him make, and they can beat the cheap shot Lions and get a 1st round bye, giving them an extra week to recooperate.

beast (2h) : Martha? 😋
Zero2Cool (5h) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (8h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (9h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
