I don't understand what the panic is from some of the GreenBay fans I know. New England got spanked by Kansas fucking City last year and won a superbowl. I only see this win making GB them that much more dangerous.
And the 15-1 Packers got spanked by a shitty KC team too.
But we did look pretty fucking helpless in that Denver game. I worry the offense will be too stubborn to run rub-routes and stuff with the WRs if they keep failing to get separation. It would also be nice if we didn't have to follow up our road game vs. an undefeated team with a great defense with a road game vs. an undefeated team with a great defense.
All Rodgers sucks aside, they've been struggling since they played St. Louis (a good defense) and really only won that game because their offense (St. Louis) gave GB a lot of points.
Isn't Rodgers' win record against good defenses really bad or something?
That's beyond my ability to search.
Which makes it an excellent slam on Rodgers.
Jerruh's reply to the Hardy photos
I.e. I don't give a fuckWhile we did not have access to the photos that became public today, we were and are aware of the serious nature of this incident. We as an organization take this very seriously. We do not condone domestic violence. We entered into the agreement with Greg fully understanding that there would be scrutiny and criticism. We have given Greg a second chance. He is a member of our team and someone who is grateful for the opportunity he has been given to move forward with his life and his career.

Nice post Church

Most QBs struggle against great defenses. That's why they're great defenses.
Hence the saying "offense wins games, defense wins championships."
I was hoping GB would win. Now they're coming to Charlotte pissed off and focused. Panthers D is going to have to play lights out.
Blandino said it was OK the refs to give the seahawks back to back TO without penalty. Also somehow the Heath hit on lockette was illegal.. Lol OK refs.
For comparison

Think the general view on the Lockette hit is that the NFL is saying it was illegal just to somehow cover their ass. And not that it's something that can happen on a perfectly routine play.
There aren't any other teams I can think of that you can compare for the same stretch of time (QB, Coach, personnel roughly being the same)
Seattle you could actually compare, sort of, because they weren't bad before RDubs era, they just weren't quite where they needed to be. Could also compare NO during their stretch of not being the worst.
JPP will be active for this Sunday.
someone needs to come in a outfit of one of those dudes from toy story and a JPP jersey
