2) Not saying Jordy is not talented, but most of his completions were against a CB that had, what, 3 PI calls today? Vickers was the name, I think. Jordy is hella talent and, most impressively, seems to improve every season. But I don't agree that Nelson is challenging Greg as top receiver. He is, however, making the most of his opportunities while defenses focus on stopping Finley + Jennings. Nelson absolutely murdered the Bucs when the tried to stop him with single coverage.

5) This I was most surprised with. Let's be fair, we are downright spoiled when our QB has the passing day he has and we say he wasn't at his best, and can realistically suggest he struggled today. But what was interesting is that for the first time this season I got the sense that Aaron wasn't able to anticipate as well as he has in the past what the defense was actually doing. The Jones INT may be the best example. I'm not sure if I'd say he was confused, and it may just be that the two-deep safety with man underneath created little separation and so Aaron could not exploit his match-ups, but something looked off as evidenced by his play.

6) The best thing to be said about Neal is that he got out of the game without getting hurt again. Otherwise, honestly, he wasn't much help. If we send anything less than 5 rushers, it honestly seems like the QB can wait all day without worrying about getting sacked. That is a problem. We definitely need to improve our talent on the D-line, but I'm starting to wonder if we could benefit a bit more with someone other than Walden opposite Clay. Someone who actually has a skill-set suited to rushing the passer. Clay was just late a few times (usually when Woodson or Bishop blitzed), but otherwise (mostly on 4 man rushes) he most often got stuffed and there went any threat of the QB getting sacked.


And while on the subject of defensive, can we PLEASE get some LB to replace AJ Hawk outside of base packages? PLEASE? Hawk is brutal. Bishop isn't all that great either, but at least he seems to be in the general vicinity while Hawk is trailing his guy by like 5 yards. Seriously, if Chillar is healed now or will be before next season starts, can we please give him a call? Or at least draft someone to replace Hawk outside of base D. Our LBs are a huge reason our pass-D is getting eaten alive. Frankly, I'm wondering why we wanted Hawk so badly in the first place. And at the price he got, too.

Watching the post-game press conference was downright hilarious. Aaron Rodgers has to be the unhappiest 10-0 quarterback in history. [roflmao]

Today marked Jordy Nelson's third 100-yard game in the past five weeks, and here are his numbers  during the Packers' 16-game winning streak, dating to last season and including playoffs:

Receptions: 67
Yards: 1,255
TDs: 12

They're going to have to quit considering him a slow white boy pretty soon.

If the ball was going forward, I'd agree with you. For some delusional reason, I feel the ball was going the other direction.


Edit, can't find the damn video to check it out. All NFL.com has is this ...

9-M.Koenen kicks onside 7 yards from TB 35 to TB 42.
RECOVERED by TB-22-L.Asante.
PENALTY on TB-9-M.Koenen, Illegal Touch Kick, 5 yards, enforced at TB 47. Green Bay challenged the loose ball recovery ruling, and the play was
REVERSED. 9-M.Koenen kicks onside 3 yards from TB 35 to TB 38, downed by TB-9-M.Koenen. Penalty on TB-9-M.Koenen, Illegal Touch Kick, declined.

Jordy Nelson is openly black. He just happens to be white.

It pleases me greatly that this team feels frustrated after this win. It will hopefully keep them grounded.





I found this quote just interesting.

They asked about it on WTMJ. They said if he was on the LOS he would have needed to report. Being int he backfield it was not necessary. Which makes the most sense. The bit about reporting is so the defense knows who is eligible as a receiver not who is eligible as a blocker or runner.

we had a good time at the game. A little cold but not too bad. We went in around 10:30. There were no lines at in security search area.

It seemed like Aaron Rodgers was just off a little. Several passes where deflected away from the receiver by TB. Great plays on their part. In the prior few weeks those passes where getting through. Was it the colder weather, Aaron Rodgers being a little off or TB getting the good jump? Could be any or all of them.

Maybe Hawk isn't the best defender against the pass but he was going up against Winslow on many of the plays. He is a tough TE to cover. Woody struggled with him a few times too.
