Playoffs, Playoffs. Did you guys watch the game yesterday? The Packers don't belong in the playoffs, so I really don't care what happens Sunday. There's no way this team beats Arizona or Carolina, so what does it really matter what happens the next two weeks? Another season with a winning record of beating the weak sisters.

Well, halfway through that drive I shook my head and said it wasn't good enough. Even if we would have bullshitted our way through the playoffs with favorable DPI calls and free play scores, I would have regarded that season as a failure.

But I was still cheering, hoping we'd somehow pull it all out of our asses despite ourselves.

If Packers beat Redskins and Vikings beat Seahawks, Packers would face Panthers. 😂

Unless our offense starts playing like the start of the season, we're not going to beat Arizona/Carolina, and even if we did, Seattle/Minnesota would have to win the other game before it would matter.

The team still has the talent to play with and beat any team in the league. But they need to change what they are doing, most importantly play calling in order to accomplish that. I think if they would come out and sit Rodgers under C, and run a traditional run game first where Lacy or Starks can get moving before getting the ball with the basically draws they run out of the short gun. Makes play action much more effective. Get Rodgers under C where he can run 1 and 3 step drops and throws helping the Oline in protection. Where roll outs are much more effective.

I don't have high hopes for them doing that, I think the defense can keep them in games for wins against maybe MN, or Wash, but I don't see them beating either AZ, CAR, or SEA.

The world is a crazy place. Momentum, opportunity, mathematical analysis, weather advantages, they are all in play, I realize that.

HOWEVER... I would never suggest starting a losing streak, to start a winning streak. Not in team sports. Not in the N.F.L.

In One on One sports... YES! It is a brilliant strategy.

We're an above average team who can't beat elite teams. Denver and Arizona clobbered us soundly and it took mistakes from Carolina for us to have even a chance at the end to tie it.

I don't know what it's going to take in the off-season for the offense to get it's 2014 groove back be it Jordy coming off IR or them signing or drafting some new talent, but they clearly don't have it this year. Even dating back to the 6-0 start you could see something wasn't right with the offense.

At the end of the day, we're in the playoffs regardless, but I'd rather see us win the division, win our WC game, and then if we go get clobbered against by Arizona or Carolina, so be it. Crazier things have happened. Were we supposed to go into Atlanta in 2010 and sufficiently thrash the #1 seeded Falcons that year? Let's beat the Queens and see where the chips fall. It's a whole new season once the playoffs start.

Slap 40 on MN in the first 1/2 and than rest some in the 2nd half.


Yes I've been drinking heavily.

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"
Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.
