The NFL itself ruined our bye.· Page 2

I'm kind of glad we lost, we suck when it comes to bye weeks and does going to Atlanta really scare anyone?

I believe in not resting players unless they're absolutely banged up but I still don't think that's what caused us to lose that game to the Giants. Our D finally caught up to us last year, and we didn't catch the football at all. You can't blame taking a week off as an excuse for losing a game.

I mean if you were an NFL player would you want a bye week? I'm pretty sure they crave for any time off.

Bullshit.. it was there for us to take. We didn't. That is all that needs to be said.

Game on for next week.

I understand the logic that it was still in the Packers control to have the #2 seed. However, the fact of the matter is things happen and sometimes teams lose in the NFL. In the FailMary game, the Packer's had a win stolen, and it hurts them today, regardless of whether the Packers failed to step up and win more games.

With that being said, that ship has sailed and I'm over it. I'm ready for the Packers to crush the Vikings next week at Lambeau. I'm confident.

Plus the way the offense looked today... Gives me hope, wasn't half bad. The return of Cobb and Woodson should help us emencley as well, and it will allow us to get M.D can't tackle Jennings off the field and let Woodson shut down TE's in the redzone.

We may even might not have to have Cobb on returns since the emergence of Jeremy Ross. Which will create an even more dynamic offense.
