I'd love to say I called this. But I didn't. I said it was possible, and I said I was choosing to be optimistic, but I did stop short of flat-out saying it was going to happen.

And... just like NormaL, I started Houston's D on my fantasy team over our own D. Bad me - bad, bad me.

It looks like this team is starting to gel and also play with more fire and intensity.
Grant is starting to look like his old self and Rodgers is looking better and more confident every game.
I think the defense played with more fire and intensity yesterday than they did at anytime last year.
Like alot of you I didn't have high expectations for a win yesterday but I think the Green Bay Packers are a team to be reckoned with from here on out.
I think the bye week will only make us better.

I started the Packers' D, but my backup D is the Chiefs so it wasn't a tough decision. Which reminds me, I need a different defense next week. :eeeek:

I'm wondering where the hell this type of performance has been all season. Outstanding game by our secondary, our offensive line wasn't a sieve. Grant was solid. Just good stuff all around. This is a performance they need to build on. I don't want to see them come out screwing around after the bye like they did last month.

They need not. We have a tough three game stretch ahead. We should be healthier than since before the season started which is a good thing. I am anxious to see how our defense will do with Harris, Bigby, and Harrell back in there. If Harrell actually surprises with some solid play we could be very difficult to score on.

If we can win two of three and one of those being a home win against the Bears I think we will finish the season strong again.

Very good time right now to get a week off.

LOL, you might want to get rid of the Chiefs. They play the Jets next week and Thomas Jones will run all over them. It's crazy that Tennessee got 300+ rushing yards against them this week.

This felt like one of those wins. Where the team gets it. we get healthy in the by week, and catch Tennessee coming off of a short week with Indy on Monday night. This is the first time all year though, that the defense played like last year. Physical, mean and beat receivers up.

but we all also need to keep in mind. This team will lose again before the season is over. We are still young, still inexperienced at certain positions and still have a tough remaining schedule. even a couple more losses wont be the end of the world. Just a reminder so that when we do end up losing a tough one... the knee jerks don't come in and tell us that Ted an Mike screwed this team and we will never win again. Just try and keep it on an even keel.

Yeah, I've been using GB's each week with the idea of using the Chiefs on the bye week...but that was from the draft. I'd rather go with GB on a bye than the Chiefs D at this point.

Well, I was right we'd score at least 28 points. I said that in another thread.

However, I was wrong when I said Woody would get an INT returned for a TD. Instead, Collins and Rouse both did. :D

I actually had a good feeling against the Colts. I think Peyton Manning's career's almost over. He's not what he used to be, and without Addai, he looked pretty sloppy out there. Should have been 4 picks. He got lucky it was just 2.

I totally agree with you keeping it on an even heel. As outstanding as the Packers played this week, we are young and inexperienced. They might make some mistakes here and there.
I was very excited for this win. They didn't just win, they dominated a top AFC team. The defense played an amazing game and made Manning look very foolish. When does Manning throw 2 pick 6's in one game? Our secondary is top-notch and if they continue to play the way they are, good things will happen. Beautiful timing for a bye week. I hope Indy beats up on Tennessee, giving us an even better chance of winning. If not, it would be nice to be the firs team to beat the Titans.

Go PACK Go!

Fan Shout

Martha Careful (10m) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (17m) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (41m) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (11h) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20h) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (21h) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.

wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.

wpr (16-Dec) : Pack fans represent. I pointed it out early in the game to my wife. Announcers said Packers travel well.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : That was crazy to hear go pack go in Seattle of all plays. That 12 man thing an all

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, good man!

jdlax (16-Dec) : Mucky, there were too many of us there to credit any single one but for sure i was 60% responsible.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, I assume you were among the Packer fans that got the "Go Pack Go!" chant going in the first quarter. Very appreciated!

jdlax (16-Dec) : We are doing the thing out west my friends

beast (16-Dec) : Damn, should have picked the Buccaneers over Chargers

beast (15-Dec) : Note: DuBose was just going all out for questionable location ball, probably never saw the defender. Bad idea to throw it there.

beast (15-Dec) : Yeah, DuBose head went down and he nailed the defender with the top of his helmet, full head, neck, spine potential injury there
