Great start! Rodgers to Jones!

TimmG6376 · 12-02-2012, 12:23 PM

Why is Rodgers messing around there? Had the offsides call just go down. Could have easily gotten a concussion or stripped of the ball.

Mason, always full of drama

princefielder28 · 12-02-2012, 12:53 PM

good play by House

princefielder28 · 12-02-2012, 01:05 PM

such poor tackling

PackerLegend · 12-02-2012, 01:31 PM

I'm sick of Crosby... long kicks short kicks whatever there is no way you can tell me we could do any worse... he absolutely ******* sucks.

Hard to look at this team and think they are a legit contender for a SB. This OL is wrecked. The Bulaga injury just created a domino effect

Crosby is a mess and completely unreliable, and the D is still a bunch of young guys trying to improve as the season goes on. They still aren't on the levle they need to be(injuries haven't helped)

for crying out loud, the Vikes only weapons are Rudolph and AP and sure enough both have TD's. D can't even bottle them up

our only saving grace is Christian Ponder being the opposing quarterback if we wanna come back

At this point I say roll with Barclay at RT put Lang back in a LG when healthy and see what happens. Could it be worse than EDS at LG and Lang at RT?

TimmG6376 · 12-02-2012, 02:03 PM

Barclay at least seems to be showing some fight in the run game. He'll need help in the passing game of course.

princefielder28 · 12-02-2012, 02:11 PM

Starks!!!!!

princefielder28 · 12-02-2012, 02:40 PM

2 in a row for Mason!

BloodBrother · 12-02-2012, 03:44 PM

Barclay actually did some good things. I'm all for having him at RT and putting Lang back at LG. Wouldn't hurt to try. EDS is complete crap

Bears lose so now GB is back in 1st in the division. Still though, this team just isn't really playing well. Very average-ish

and now we have to hope that Jordy's hamstring injury isn't a big deal or else we are looking at him likely missing a few weeks.

I am completely for Barclay staying at RT and putting Lang back at LG. I thought Barclay looked pretty good out there today.

Agreed!
OMG, did you guys just see 88 Emmanuel Sanders give that ball away, and probably the game away to the Ravens!
That makes Finley look like Jerry Rice.
Finley, by the way, came up big again.

I agree 100% Barclay looked good.

Our D played really nice in tie 2nd half. Our O still isn't right but that 4th Q drive eating clock was really incouraging. Burned up 10+ mins and got points. While it wasn't always pretty I can only see us going up. Jennings finally back which is huge. Need to get Matthews, Woodson, Shields back. D. Moses is on the rise as is Hayward and House.

TimmG6376 · 12-02-2012, 06:19 PM

I don't think it is a coincidence that the run game picked up after Barclay came in. A lot of those runs were to the right side. Sure they're going to have to give him help in the passing game, but the way it has been going they were going to have to start doing that even with Lang in there.

J-Mike88 · 12-02-2012, 06:39 PM

Packers were down 10 starters once Jordyzzzz and Lang went out.

princefielder28 · 12-02-2012, 07:22 PM

I think Barclay could be our new Kevin Barry. I like him as a starter at right tackle for the time being and when Bulaga comes back he can be utilized in the run game.

Completely agree with everyone about Barclay and Lang both playing rather than E D-S. Even Newhouse played well today. His one sack given up was because Arod was pressured from elsewhere. This team just needs to keep winning and getting people back healthy. Just imagine not having MD Jennings at SS or Erik Walden at OLB.

Also, 49ers losing today was pretty clutch. Packers need to win out and get losses from Giants and 49ers to lock up 2 seed. I completely think this is possible, especially with getting Greg Jennings back. Greg Jennings makes teams fear him more so than Jordy. I think Greg also opens up things more for Finley (who actually appears to be playing with some confidence).

I am actually hoping that we can sit Clay out one more game, and squeak out a win against the Lions. I think the Lions are done for and they wont be playing at home, so if the Pack can jump out to a 2 score lead, it should be ours.

Final thought....Morgan Burnett has played extremely well all year I have thought. Outside of two missed tackles on his part today, I have seen him tackle extremely well and now he has finally gotten his hands on some balls.
