#1. After the Packers win Super Bowl XLVII, this game will be a really dramatic part of the NFL "America's Game" and it'll make us feel go to see how they overcame.

I can't even begin to think of anything positive.

A lot of tweets are saying they feel sorry about the Saints, because the Packers are going to beat the living shit out of them. But Drew Brees also called the referees out, and in my mind... he's the most humble player in the NFL. Not to mention the highest paid.

It'll be an interesting game, but I don't even know if I want to watch it.

Even though we know I will.

Other than two* bombs, Seattle did nothing against Green Bay's defense. The Packers defense went on the road and whipped them. Once the offense gets on track, and I believe it will, this team should take off. Let's just hope we remain healthy.

Much needed thread.

2. Sam Shields. Terrific play tonight. In addition to his coverage, I recall a play in the 4th Q. where he ran across from his side to the other and tackled Lynch for like a 2 yard gain. I honestly do not think I have seen Shields play as well as he did tonight.

3. Ryan Pickett. Tremendous in stuffing the run tonight. Saw him hold the point and be involved in some tackles.

4. McCarthy's adjustments. No excuse for why it took him so long, but boy did it work wonders.

5. DB Coverage. Second week in a row - outside of mix-up on Seattle's first TD - where we did not have glaring lapses in coverage. After last year, that is one big positive.

I totally agree with Porky... this defense is showing itself to have the ingredients to be quite good.

One thing that bothers me is all the weird personal fouls. What's up with Francois shoving the dude out of bounds?

the only positive i can think of is that this wasn't a playoff game.
it's early in the season & we can overcome this.

Positives: Seeing Finley be consistent and a playmaker, as well as Jones. I've been hard on Finley all season, but I'm happy to give credit where it's due.

There were many positives within this game for the Packers to take with them.

But I think the common cause that this bad call will have on the Packers will propel them into a hungry and pissed off team for the remainder of the season.

It cost us a game, there is no doubt, but I think we are going to see a dangerous Packer team result.. by dangerous I mean that other teams will see a renewed sense of vigor from the Packers for the balance of the season.

I don't think the Saints have a shot in hell against the Packers. I think this will forge this team even tighter. And hopefully they freaking run the ball more often. What was it in the first half, 2 or 3 runs?

This Sunday will tell us where the Packers are going this season.

beast (23h) : Yeah, someone tell the Packers football season has started, seems like they weren't ready for it

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Sooooooo many penalties

Mucky Tundra (23h) : It may only be preseason, but this game is a trip to the dentist

TheKanataThrilla (9-Aug) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
