that rant was just silly, and the post totally sucked!

I was focusing on special teams, and why have they played so poorly for six continuous seasons, and how the poor play of special teams has been a factor in every loss this season.

the packers have lost nearly every game by 5-6 points. the difference has been special teams in these loses.

did i say poor special teams play is one of the reasons the Packers have lost many games this season, and who is the player who is out on injury that has caused the special team to play sub par all season.

i was given a list of some crappy players that were supposed to be the reason the team has failed to play well on special teams.

I disagreed with the post on special teams players, and said these players made no impact to begin with. so they were not the key to better special teams play, it was an issue with the talent of personnel

First of all, we have lost every game by 4 points or less. Just thought I'd put that out there.

Second of all, you don't have to make the tackle every time to be considered a special teams contributor. It's not always about making the play. It's about being disciplined and staying in your lane, so that others can make the play, and sometimes you can. Right now, we have a bunch of inexperienced players out there that hasn't been on the team very long or hasn't seen the field hardly at all.

Not many teams have one player in specific that goes down and makes a tackle every time they punt or kick it. Really it's about making the most of your opportunities, and making the play when you can.

With that said, it's hard to go out there every week with different people that you've never played with before and have success.

We've had success in the past 6 years. Remember the year we went to the NFC championship? Hell, even last year...we made it to the playoffs.

You're just too hypocritical to realize that Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson actually know what they're doing.

well to be honest...

i think ol' Mike McCarthy & Ted Thompson will win out, mAke the playoffs, win in the first round and prolly lose to ATL in the second round.

I think it will save Mike McCarthy job. i do not think gb will lose out. they played good against NE, Mike McCarthy seems to pull it all together when his back is against the wall, and keep his job.

if the Packers would just play a full 60 minute game with no turnovers or surrender any huge plays on special teams, i'd have nothing to complain about, and all will be well on PackersHome.com

But you can't blame EVERYTHING on McCarthy. You honestly think he is over on the sideline saying: "Hey guys, it looks like we've got this one wrapped up. You don't have to try anymore. Don't worry about turnovers or anything."

I know, he isn't the best coach. He has his flaws, and I realize this. But I just don't think he needs to be fired. He has a good program going, and firing him would set this organization back.

And you definitely can't blame TT. He just gets the players. And IMO, he has done a good job every since he has been here.

Don't back down to these pansies! It ain't like we all don't get disgusted with Mike McCarthy and Uncle Ted. For Christ sakes we should have bought a couple O-lineman in free agency by now to fix that friggen nightmare. There's plenty wrong with what we do as a team, but overall I think McCarthey has a fine offensive mind, but he gets hung up on stuff like running on 3rd and 2 when he has a light in the pants o-line.

A couple OL from free agency wouldn't fix our poor ass scheme being coached by someone who doesn't know the scheme well.

This. We DO realize that Mike McCarthy has flaws, like I said in my last post. But what coach doesn't? He has his strengths and his weaknesses, like all others.

Same goes for old Ted.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (4h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : 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
