I'll say it again, a victory tonight would have been great, but Packers are no worse off than they were before this weekend started, and oh by the way if The Vikings win tomorrow night, they are actually in a better position.

Squib kicks never work, because they give the kicking team too much time and, more often than not, they end up over perusing. They make me nervous every time.

Your right, THEY NEVER WORK!!! That's why almost every team will use the squib kick at the end of a half, or end of a game so The receivers will not bust a long return.

Would someone please lock up daddy's Jack Daniels so twedbody and some of these other 15 year olds will stop posting drunken knee-jerk bullshit rants on these boards.

The Packers went to the Pats who just DEMOLISHED 2 DIVISION LEADERS the last 2 weeks, and outplayed them w/out Jenkins, Zombo (who is our 5th starting LB lost now?), and Rodgers and the mile-long list of other injured players.

Mike established a game plan that kept NE off balance and had the team control the ball for nearly 40 fucking minutes, really think about that...and that's with Brandon Jackson and Matt "who the fuck is that?" Flynn at QB...and people are REALLY bitching about play calling?!?!? Mike took a nobody rookie and implemented a game plan that kept virtually everything to within 10 yards and short quick reads to put the onus on playmakers and off of the fresh meat that Matt Flynn was.

There were 3 unfortunate, and inordantly influential plays - (squib, jones picked by safety = pick 6, late brain fart by Flynn)...and outside of those 3 plays the Packers DOMINATED the Pats. It's a game of inches...anyone watch the Steelers-Jets ending? Shit happens and sometimes good teams lose.

And for those of you saying get rid of Jones, please tell me who else we put in during week 17. Does Donald Lee seem like a good option out wide?!?

I hope the Packers never play another virtually complete game again, I'd hate to see what other bull shit will clutter these boards.

The question becomes, could a more disciplined version of this unit been a real contender?

You cant get past the injuries because that is near impossible to overcome. The losses we've endured would make most teams incapable of competing but we have done OK...

I question whether or not McCarthy could ever take this team, completely healhty or not. To the promised land

Basically, they kept sucking and licking and humming us for over 59 minutes. Then at the very last second, as our eyes were rolled to the back of our heads and our toes were curling and we were about to explode, they got up and giggled "Just kidding!"

It sure felt good while it lasted, but goddamn, my balls ache.

so some of you seriously thought we had a chance in this game? wow. personally, i was thrilled when we got 3 points - no shutout. then we go into the half having scored 17 - i'm thinkin holy shit we just scored 17 points against the pats with an injury hampered team - this is cool.

i can't be the only one who when rodgers went down thought "well, there goes our season"...right? flynn did a great job but he's no rodgers. he's not the leader of this team.

This game tore my heart out. I would have been happier if we'd been blown out. I was emotionally prepared for that. But to come so close, at such long odds, against such a dominating opponent, and in their house to boot... crushing loss.

Ok, I complained some in the game chat. (That's part of what I do, after all.)

But all in all, I thought McCarthy called a pretty good game. About the only drive I didn't like his playcalling were two in the fourth quarter, where first the team goes three and out after calling three pass plays, and then on the next possession, he goes shotgun on every play on the drive other than the punt.

But apart from that part of a quarter, I think he called things almost exactly as I wanted. Not a lot of finesse, grind up the time.

That half a quarter bugs me, of course, but I feared worse.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I'm not in favor of firing McCarthy.
With that said, if he is too bullheaded to fire Slocum and Campen at the end of this season then I might feel he should go.

Zero2Cool (2h) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
