Lots of doom and gloom this week. Lets talk about the game Ty had. Hopefully McCarthy finally gives him and others consistently playing time. Ty has earned it. He's fun to watch.

yeah if his last name was Spiller and he had the exact same game people wouldn't be freaking out so bad about our back up RB.

Ty is a big, strong dude and has more upside than Abby. Would like to see Davis make more of his opportunities, and of course Aaron to get his house in order. But yeah, always been a huge fan of Montgomery.

I absolutely love this guy. He needs to stay on the field.

Montgomery has been practicing as RB for over a month now and Aaron Rodgers says that Montgomery is "now a RB" lol

It doesn't say "RB" next to his name on the roster though therefore he can't be a good back up RB and we need to sign a FA that has one of those "RB" things next to his name.

I'm just happy he's making catches and being part of the offense. Between his ankle injury last year and quiet year (TC+first couple of games) I feared he was just a flash in the pan.

Edit: Oh, and I was worried when I heard he had micro-fracture surgery

What do you not like about Montgomery at RB? He has the size for it and looks like a dang RB lol

Against anything other than a CB, Monty has and will be going right down - our failed attempts to punch it into the end zone are great examples.

Ripowski has the heft but not the speed. Monty has the speed but not the heft.

Fan Shout

beast (18m) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (19m) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (30m) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (41m) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (51m) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (1h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (1h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (1h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (2h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (2h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (2h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (2h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (3h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (4h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (4h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (4h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (5h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (5h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (5h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (5h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (5h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (5h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (5h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (5h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (5h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (5h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (5h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (5h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (5h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (5h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (5h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (6h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (6h) : Packers will get in

beast (6h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (6h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (6h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (7h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (9h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (9h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (19h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings
