I also thought there was an exception to the rule that if an offensive player was in a "threatening" position, ie looks to be in position for a fake punt, that rule about covering the center did not apply. I swear I heard that when a flag was picked up on a Mon/Sun night game.

Yep, I saw that too. But it did not apply to this situation.

Another week, another loss that didn't need to happen. Fortunately, we can let our grievances air on packershome; UNfortunately, we can't talk about it in the workplace or at school because we'll sound like whiney viking fan bitches. This really sucked, but it is what it is. Rules are made for a reason. The fact that the commercial break made it seem like a delayed call did not help the officiating crew, but if Francois is going to line up over the long snapper--which I don't see why that is any different than lining up over a center, just snap your damn head up!--he needs to make sure it is AT LEAST a yard and a half off the ball, don't leave room for debate on it. It's ridiculous that it happened, but whatever the case, it did happen, and we were not able to come back in OT. Moreover, we were not able to do ANYTHING on offense in OT, and Masthay had another horrible line-drive punt. My wedding was on Saturday, so watching this on Sunday put a big damper on my weekend, but let's take this for what it is, a mistake that we can learn from.

Can't wait for our mid-week letter of apology from the league.


We continue to play to the level of our opponent, and I'm ready to quit watching sub-par football from my team.

Congratulations, Peter. Too bad the Packers did not hold up their end of the bargain to make your weekend complete. It just seems to be one of these years, at least so far.

Thanks man. I probably should take a big dose of Grow The Hell Up and realize that there are more important things on the wedding weekend haha, but I've never really been all that mature!
We are indeed playing to our opponent, which is why (disregarding the Bills game) we have a 18 point difference in 5 out of the first 6 games. We need to get our act together because this is ridiculous.
Sadly, it DOES make me want to stop watching because I have so much emotion invested in the team that it actually hurts when they do so poorly.
We have a very explosive offense that is not playing explosively. And Rodgers is right there with him. Looking at his ratings this year game by game, they go 73, 116, 92, 105, 76, 85. There are a few good ones in there, but certainly not up to par with what we expect from him, and more importantly what he expects from himself. He also has 7 interceptions through the first 6 games. Last year he had 7 the entire season, and in '08 he had 13, which is still less than what he's on pace for this year.
The entire team (offense, defense, ST) needs to pull their collective head out of their collective ass, or else we will be done watching just shortly after the New Year.
