We didn't "take Arizona to the wire" so much as we shit ourselves and let an inferior team defeat us.

I'm pretty sure no one was saying "Arizona is the inferior team compared to the Packers" at the start of the post-season. Hell, they kicked our ass less than a month ago.

This was a mighty fine win.

It's only gratifying to you, because Janis made some good plays.

We got Bakhtiari and Shields back, next week we'd get Davante back. We already had Aaron back from his tantrum. We could have made a run. But I guess not.

Rodgers had a brutal season as did Cobb, Adams and the OL. My expectations sank week after week after week.

If Seattle wins tomorrow, it's really gonna sting. Could've been hosting the CHIP with revenge on the line. What theater that would've been.

I don't understand the defense sometimes, playing man coverage mostly, and its working. Then Larry Fitzgerald beats it a couple of times so we run zone for the rest of the game and it gets beat continuously.

Yeah, they kicked our asses, when we had two backup Gs at T.

Just because we shit ourselves worse a month ago, doesn't mean that it's ok to shit ourselves now. Maybe it is to you, but it's not to me.

However I know better than to get into conversation with you.

This team played out of its mind. The defense would have had even more sacks in the 2nd half if they weren't allowed to hold on every play. I came away impressed overall. Sucks that Shields couldn't make any picks though.

Actually, we lost because our DB's can't catch simple interceptions.

Sure, if Sam can make a catch and run it back for 6 then I agree, but we never made the plays we needed to make for them to be on the ropes.

dfosterf (1h) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (3h) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (4h) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (4h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (5h) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (6h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (6h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (8h) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (9h) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (9h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (9h) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (9h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (9h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (9h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (11h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (13h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (13h) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (13h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (13h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (20h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons

Mucky Tundra (20h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious

dfosterf (26-Aug) : *Orzech*

dfosterf (26-Aug) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks
