I predicted that the Pack would only win 2 more games(Bears and Browns). Maybe Tampa? So what surprises are ahead for the team. Williams?

Not Williams... the last time I was this unimpressed by a Packers back was Brandon Jackson.

Aaron Jones was all the rage but he just flamed out faster than he came out of nowhere. I love that guy but he looks to be a flash in the pan for now. With the way we handle RB's we may never ever hear from him again.

Devante Mays is going to be fun to watch...people may forget all about Aaron Jones if he shows well on Sunday.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

If McCarthy would run the damn ball we might be able to figure out the rb situation one day

He wasn't fancy, but when The Packers needed a tough 2 or 3 yds he got them.

You have to go back many years to find someone who had 20+ carries in a single half.

The only people hurting now are those of us who have The Packers Wr' s in our FFL lineups.
😁😁
Davante Mays up next, can't wait to see how much action he sees this week.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

There is no guarantee that losing will ensure change. There is no guarantee that winning will not lead to changes.

I hate losing. I hate any team/anyone I love losing. I will never be happy with a Packer loss. I can be less upset under the circumstances with Hundley at QB, but it still leaves me not in a very good mood.

Some variable has to change. I hate losing but if that losing brings change it's more than worth it. Hundley may just do enough to prevent anything from changing. Only people who could possibly be happy with no change are those who aren't that interested in SB wins.

What is ideal is having the right people at the top that will do what needs to be done in the relentless pursuit of SBs but that's the issue. Wrong people at the top and those won't change so nothing will. I'm talking about Mark Murphy. I fault him as much as anyone. That guy is not a winner. Very unfortunate to have him succeed Harlan.

I still agree with Kanata that I don't like it when the Packers lose. I don't get nearly as upset as I used to but I go into every game hoping they win. Even if it comes down to that last meaningless game of the year when we are out of the playoff hunt and a win means we pick three spots lower in the draft and makes it more likely that Ted and Mike and Dom are kept around for another year I will still root for a win. I may not be as upset with a loss in that case but I will still root for the win.

Here's good news...12 took snaps from a trainer in practice today. He was working on cardio and range of motion.

Zero2Cool (36m) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (20h) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : 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 (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : 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 (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : 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 (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
