Packers don't win the turnover battle, but win the score war.

That first half was painful to watch. I assume the tide turned when Carr got knocked out.

I tuned back in during the 4th quarter down 17-3. Fully expected them to lose 20-18 but missed FG we'll take it. A W is a W.

My wife and I were on the way home while listening to the game. When the Sant's kicker missed the FG we both screamed like 12 yo girls.

I hated MLF going for it on 4th and 2 in the first quarter. I didn't think the offense had showed any rhythm at that point. While the annoucers loved the flea flicker call, I didn't. Too many moving parts. Finally the 2 point attempt was very gutsy. I was surprised they would go for it then.

The 2 pt attempt surprised me too but thinking about and how aggressive MLF was, I think he wanted to come out and set a tone for today and the season after blowing the 12 point lead last week.

With the two point attempt, I was thinking that might be the ball game if they don't make it, so I was surprised they were going for it early.

And not to go full nerdmann but I think MLF wanted to avoid OT at that point with a Thursday game looming.

The Saints special teams coordinator is considered the best in the league by most. We tried to land him but refused to pony up the cash. I love your optimism though!! WE NEED THAT

What I hated about it was our own guys keep slipping as much if not more than the bad guys.

Also, statistically speaking, the odds of you failing back to back two point conversions is far less than failing one. So, basically, if you try and fail, you're probability of converting the second one is pretty high.

I thought it was funny how the commentator J. Wilma didn't like the Packers going for it on 4th down there, but then says he likes the call. The call was pretty damn good. The execution was horrible. And by good I mean we had a guy wide open. I would have rather a call (as you stated) with less moving parts.

This isn't going full "anyone", it's just logical. It's why they go light on short weeks for practice because they want the guys to recover enough to be healthy for the next game.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.
beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.
beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.
