This is where the wheels come off.

JUST KIDDING! This Packers team has a tendency to play up to it’s competition, for at least the two quarters during which they actually show up. (Or sometimes down to their competition, as we saw last week.)

The problem for the past three games is that they haven’t shown up for those two quarters.

Well this is where the Packers love to be. They are now in a position with their backs to the wall, a truly “must win” situation. That’s where they put themselves in ’10 before they made their run. That’s where they put themselves in games on a routine basis. They are incapable of just playing well and putting other teams away.

If the Packers lose today (and I don’t think they will,) Mike McCarthy will be on the hot seat. They pissed away a Superbowl appearance (and quite likely a victory in that game) last year and now are doing the same with this season. But I do not believe they will lose.

The Packers will win this game, right the ship and make a playoff appearance, without having to earn the dreaded “Home Field Advantage.” Not sure how they’ll do in the playoffs, but they’ll be back to their usual “show up for two quarters and get a victory” lifestyle, and everyone will be happy again.

Will this “FAIL as much as you can before you really start trying” tendency cost Mike his job at some point? Yes. I just don’t think that time is now.

I’m a little bit disappointed in Aaron this week for, 1: faking an injury as an excuse for his statwhoring and shitty play and 2: hiding behind his girlfriend’s twitter account to attack Demovsky over his recent article suggesting that Aaron might be having relationship issues. When Greg Jennings sister did that, everyone reacted quite negatively.

I disagree. The Packers will come out with a solid first drive or second drive and then fall to the way side. The Vikings are too good in comparison to the Packers in all three phases of the game. Their QB is playing better than our QB. Their RB is superior to our RB's collectively.

Mike Zimmer defense is taking form and when previous Zimmer defenses faced Aaron Rodgers, they whooped up the Packers.

The Packers will get doubled up this weekend unless Rodgers is on target.

The only change the Packers have is if Rodgers is on target and WR catch the ball. If that does not happen, which it won't, the Packers are going to lose by double digits.

Agree and disagree.

I agree with you nerdman about Rodgers being really really annoying with his behavior and his comments. Demovsky is indeed and idiot but tell him yourself, what kind of person sends a girl to say things to a man?

I disagree about the Packers playing well 2 quarters. We play like shit all game long, what happens is that once ahead the other team start using a prevent defense and we start taking more risks so it seems we are playing better but actually the other team is playing softer.

I agree with Zero about our first drive being usually a good one and then we implode. We've seen this a lot lately so we are used to it.

This game is a fight of forces, on one side our crappy preparation and MM on the other side the Vikings that are due for their annual great slide, a tradition they have honored for years.

So I think it all depends on the Vikes, either they shoot themselves on the foot and start their slide or they just win because we have lost our identity.

Admit it, this team is not really that good. It basically revolves around Rodgers. If he plays lights out, then they win, anything else and it's a loss.

Sorry Nerd, I asked the "Magic 8ball" if the Packers would win like Nerd said and he/she said "it is doubtful".😕

Zero2Cool (19h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (22h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (22h) : 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
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
