Lynch has one big game and suddenly the Lynch fans come out again.

Yes, I'm sure his 737 yards at a 3.6 yard average would have made a huge difference vs Brandon Jackson's 703 yards and 3.7 average.

We're in the playoffs. Starks played just as good if not better than Lynch in Lynch's biggest game of the year. Stop second-guessing everything and appreciate the great team we have.

I bet no other RB that we didn't trade for and say this. ;)

Marshawn Lynch touchdown caused an earthquake

Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch did more than just score one of the best touchdowns in the history of football Saturday against the Saints.

He also caused an earthquake.

OK, maybe earthquake is an exaggeration, but the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network recorded a small tremor near Qwest Field at exactly 4:43 p.m. Saturday, just as Lynch was reeling off his incredible 67-yard run, presumably meaning the run got the crowd jumping up and down screaming to such an extent that the earth moved.

That has happened before: In 1988, a seismograph detected the crowd reaction to LSUs winning touchdown over Auburn in a game now known as the Earthquake Game.

Maybe we can call Lynchs touchdown the Earthquake Run.

I completely agree that Starks' performance tilts things back in Ted's direction. He didn't do anything as insanely spectacular as Lynch, but he was very, very good. And he was already on the team, so he cost us nothing.

Throw in catches and Jackson is more productive than Lynch.

Lynch is also not productive outside the one big run. For the entire year, including that game against NO. So it isn't even one good game. It really is just one good run in an entire year.

Even if Starks had an average game. That run didn't tilt anything away from TT. Lynch is still a waste of meat.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Ah yes, this is the Packers Home I know and love: If you don't like a player, subtract his best play. What took everyone so long to get around to this? I was beginning to wonder if I was on the wrong web site.

The truth is that Lynch was gaining tough yards all day long to help his team build a lead. That big run was just the icing on the cake. Give credit where credit is due.

And don't forget that (I believe) Lynch didn't want to play in GB. I'm not one to say that he couldn't have changed his tune like Woodson, but I also don't think Woodson and Lynch are the same type of people.

the only rb I wanted Ted Thompson to get is the guy we are playin against Sat.

the question I would pose is why didn't Ted Thompson go after Micheal Turner?

packerfanoutwest (11h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites

Zero2Cool (19h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break
