Packers at Rams Game Day

Well, at least the offense has come alive but the Packers’ defense is still not good. The worst team in the NFL is hanging around and while the Packers lead 23-14 I am not exactly confident the Packers will hang on. Kyle Boller replaced the injured and ineffective Mark Bulger and sparked the Rams. The Packers still can’t even come close to running the ball and that is going to be a major concern if it continues. Combine that with only a slight improvement in the pass blocking department and the Packers still have a long way to go on offense.

Halftime now and just for once I would like to see the team make some positive halftime adjustments. By the way, sorry for the delayed post, had to take advantage of a gorgeous fall Wisconsin day to play 18 at the County. A Packer win will make it a great day.

2:07 PM: It is officially time to panic. The Packers have come apart at the seams. The Rams will be leading soon and if then the game is over. I can’t believe what I’m seeing.

2:15 PM: The Packers are ripe for the picking today. This is going from bad to worse. Updated prediction – Rams 34, Packers 30.

2:39 PM: Well, so much for my prediction, Crosby can’t even make an extra point. At least we lead by 12 and the defense held.

3:23 PM: The Packers came back and showed some resolve to win 36-17. It was ugly, but they pulled it out. Now they face the 3-0 Vikings in Minnehaha for the NFC North division lead. Monday Night Football no less. You might not hear from me until Monday.

    Another thing we learned is that Allen Babre is the worst RT in football and its not even close. Case in point, Baltimore,Chicago,Buffalo and Minnesota all start ROOKIE Right Tackles and they all are better the than Babre. Clifton comes back sit Babre and start Lang. We know TT wont actually trade or pick up a FA or anything

    @ Larry

    ” An Oxy-Moron wants MM/TT fired and SAYS he wants the Packers to win; its that simple. ”

    I’m glad there are some posting here who see the reality of being a PackFan. …. I think the ultimate question needs to be answered by some on this blog. (MH, PB, Mark, etc.)….. Here’s your 2 options for Monday’s game.

    A. In a close game, GB pulls out a victory late on a 51 yard FG. (24-21)….. Both AR & BF throw 3 TD passes but a late INT by BF sets up the Pack for the winning kick.

    B. A blowout by GB (38-13) features AR throwing 3 TD passes & running for a 4th…. GB jumps out early forcing BF to throw 40+ times (22-42) in order to catch-up. …. BF throws 3 picks & is sacked 5 times…… He replaced in the 4th quarter by TJ.

    Now you apologists pick an option…… Pick ‘A’ or ‘B’. …. No need to explain your choice…… Just pick.

  • http://jlworden1suddenlink.net Larry

    Geez, Rock, I really prefer option B. Am I elgible to vote?

  • packer_bob

    Conversely, let’s say we win a Super Bowl a year or two or three from now. (I don’t think it’s going to happen this year with this O-line and our inability to stop the run, be happy as hell to be wrong about this.) Does that mean it was correct to let Favre go? Not necessarily. I prefer to think both sides made decisions and for the first time, there were conflicting interests. Sometimes couples, since we often use the divorce analogy, drift apart, it doesn’t mean party was right and the other wrong.

    Larry,

    We’ve been running slants for years, how are we supposed to be “hiding” it from opponents now? The whole reason we’re talking about it is because their omission so surprising, so if we’re not running slants because we think we’re going to spring it on somebody later, to me that doesn’t make sense. Maybe that’s why Ryan Grant hasn’t peeled off any big runs yet either, we want to sandbag an opponent with in down the line. Not being smart, just think it would be a pretty ridiculous strategy.

    As far as the Vikes, we should be able take advantage of their secondary if we can keep Rodgers upright, which is definately not a given. I am a little worried about AP, the Vikes aren’t going to have the strategy of having a 40 year old Favre throw the ball 46 times for 300 yards every week. With the way we’ve let Benson and Jackson run on us the last two weeks, I’m concerned with what AP might be able to do to us. (Don’t forget, Jackson had a big run early called back for a hold or we would have better numbers than he did.)

    I’d also say the return team had better keep Harvin in check. Did you guys see that kickoff return for a touchdown? Talk about speed. Really can’t afford to be giving up special teams plays like that.

  • Jeff (the other one)

    Rocky – you set up a false choice. Refused.

    Both outcomes represent a Packer win – I’m good either way or any other way that has us on top at the end. Personally, I like a competitive game from an entertainment point of view. yes – football is ENTERTAINMENT – a distraction from what is otherwise a sometimes difficult life. Nothing more.

    Choice B would seem to make a more convincing case for the current management of our shared and beloved statewide (nay, nationwide) distraction. Personally, I think Scenario A would be more beneficial for the Packer players. Winning tough games against legit opposition being better for character than blowing out inferior competition.

    Personally, your whole thought process puts a bad taste in my mouth. I watch Packer games, and cheer for the team when they do well. I also think we should seriously consider new leadership if this season doesn’t come out at least 9-7.

    Ray Rhodes -> 8-8 and gone
    Mike Sherman (GM) -> 5 straight winning seasons and gone
    Mike Sherman (HC) -> 1 losing season and gone

    Ted Thompson – 2 losing seasons, 1 split
    Mike McCarthy – 1 losing season, 1 split

    By my accounting, allowing our current leadership this year to prove themselves capable of performing just a shade over 500 is generous given standards previously applied. I’m for the team winning – is this crew can do it, I’m good. If they can’t, I think we should move on. Done. Finished. My last word.

  • roy jamison

    Since I don’t get to see the Packers play unless it’s on Monday, I’ve got a question for those that do: What has happened to Finley at TE? Seemed like he had a strong camp and now it looks like he has disappeared. Did he get hurt and I didn’t pick that up?

  • packer_bob

    Screw you and your mind games, Rocky. Where’s the option of AP getting few yards, fumbling 3 times and Ryan Grant runs for 150 yards and 3 TD? Or a special teams return or block, like happened yesterday, turns the outcome of the game? Your brain is so warped you can only imagine scenarios where BF loses or BF is annihilated and destroyed. What you should be worrying about is AP rushing for 300+ yards if we can’t do a better job against the run then we have the last two weeks and us not getting beat for a big return.

    Who gives a flip how we win, we just need to win. Keep your mind fucking to yourself, thank you very much, your pathetic hatred is your cross to bear, not anyone else’s.

    By the way, how did that BF 3 interception prediction work out again? Probably was time to change the Depends for you at the end of that one. Pretty obvious to me how much dissension he has created in the locker room, what with everyone mobbing each other, the fans going nuts and the players glowing comments after the game.

    You really called that whole thing spot on.

  • packer_bob

    Roy,

    Finley has disappeared, but there is no injury problem that I am aware of. He’s had a few drops in the first 2 games, whether that has led Rodgers to not throw his way is anyone’s guess.

    I think it has more to do with MM’s play calling right now, we seem to be throwing down the field quite a bit. It’s like the previous question of what happened to the slant passes. It’s MM’s play calling, imo.

  • Rocky70

    @ Larry

    ” Geez, Rock, I really prefer option B. Am I elgible to vote? ”

    Of course anyone can vote…… Also, those who ignore picking ‘A’ or ‘B’ are really exposing themselves anyway….

    The choices are clear-cut….. If you need to explain your choice…. you are only exposing yourself…… ‘A’ or ‘B’…… It’s a simple question that needs no explanation on your part….. Fess-up, Pack-Fans…. Show everyone where your head is really at.

  • Rocky70

    @ PB

    If I recall correctly, the Jets were 8-3 last season & everyone was ‘in love’ with the BF’er…… Funny how things turned out on the East Coast in 2008…. It’s a long season…. BF just simply isn’t up to it…. starting this Monday night.

    Face it PB, you’re an apologist through & through…. Plus, you don’t have the balls to just answer the frick’en question with ‘A’ or ‘B’….. We all know where your head is at.

  • RayL

    I will answer the Question my with my own outcome. VIKES win by 17-21 Points AP gets 200+ yds, BF torches GB secondary, fans go wild…Hope the 2nd game has the same outcome and VIKES win the NFC north and PACK does not make the playoffs and TT/MM get fired. All of you Kool-aid drinkers can put that in your pipe and smoke it. Now have fun with it…..you TT kool-aid drinkers…

  • http://Orlando Mark

    P-b you may be right but it’s falling on deaf ears. Just let sleeping dogs lie, and if they’re barking walk around. Rocky has #4 fever and like you point out #4′s hardly the biggest threat we have to worry about. I don’t think he’ll do well against us and if Chilly is smart he won’t let him attempt more than 20 throws. Of course, I’m counting on Chilly not being very smart.

  • Rocky70

    What’s wrong ? …. Can’t answer a simple A/B opinion question ?

    Solid PackFans would have no doubt in their choice….. Those of you who ignore the question, refuse to answer it, or “let sleeping dogs lie” are only exposing yourself as what you truly have become.

    Hey… all I’m doing is comparing the outcome of a game by comparing how AR (GB starting QB) performs versus how the starting QB performs for our dreaded rivals in the North Division, the ViQweens…..

    As a solid PackFan, I don’t see the issue with wanting BF (Viking Starting QB) to utterly fail in Monday Nite’s game….. I’ve never wanted the opposing QB to play well regardless of who it is……. I sense some trepidation on some posters’ responses…. Really baffling & a little sad…… But it is what it is, I guess.

  • 4205

    Singletary got conservative on offense, which would have been ok if they would have pressured BF some – came with 3 rushers and he had all day to wait for receiver to cross on the endline! With pressure, he might have had to dump off and hope for a run (better chance to stop that!).

  • 4205

    A B ? Who cares – just any one point win would be fine with me!

  • packer_bob

    Yeah, the other Jeff, Mark, myself, we’re all not really Pack fans because we won’t answer your stupid mind fuck question. We’re “exposed” now, nice job Detective, you’ve really cracked the case!

    The correct answer is A, B C or D provided the scenario attached to each letter involves a Packer win. If we win a close win or win in a blowout, I could care less. I guess I’d prefer a blow out if it came down to it, might give us some swagger we are sorely lacking right now. (I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for that though.)

    The only one exposed is you, you warped twisted little man. Only somebody sick in the head would come up with some stupid question like yours and then demand that people answer it or get labeled as non-fans and closet Viking fans. Keep getting your jollies rooting for people to fail, old man, I’ll root for us to succeed instead!

  • Pete H

    My choice is for the Packers to win in an absolute blowout. To blow them out in their house would be a monster lift for this team, which is still sputtering here. Not to mention, it would put to rest some of the fears about Rodgers and the “big game”. Because really, other than a Super Bowl, this is going to be one of the bigger games in his career. The Vikings are the Vikings..its that simple. I will be at the Vikes game in Lambeau and I will be rooting like hell for Brett to be part of a Raji/Jenkins sandwich, but when he is announced pregame, I will rise to my feet and give him a standing ovation for the 16 DEDICATED years he gave this team! He was the quarterback for most of my adult life and was a big part of allowing me to watch a lot of exciting, mostly winning football. Will all of you quit behaving like teenagers and “calling everyone out” to see where they “truly” stand. Seriously? A year and a half is about enough with this Hannah Montana shit.

  • Matt Hayton

    Rocky-

    Obviously you haven’t already noticed, let em spell this out for you, I just ignore you. This is the last time I will ever reference you in post, so I hope you enjoy it. There is no point calling me out now or in the future because I just won’t respond, period. Call me a viking fan or a cock-licker or whatever else you like or a Brent ball sucker. Clearly, someone who has to resort to those tactics is trying to compensate for something. You’re not worth my time.

    Roy-
    I was super high on Finley in camp, as I saw him light it up with my own 2 eyes at camp back in August.

    3 things going on here, IMHO:
    1. Finley has had a few key drops, AR seems to have more confidence in Lee, at this point.
    2. The TE’s are chipping an awful lot because our line sucks, which makes them option 3, 4 or 5 on most plays. They were chipping yesterday against the frickin rams, can’t imagine they won’t do the same against the Queens.
    3. When they aren’t staying into to help block and then releasing, there isn’t enough time for plays to develop downfield. Someone is already at AR’s heels and he gets happy feet when that happens (don’t blame him), and tends to roll to a sideline where WRs because his best option, generally.

    Bottom line the OL struggles are eliminating us the opportunity to gameplan with the TEs, very similar to back in ’05-’07 when they kept Bubba in as an extra blocker the majority of the time.

    This entire offense is out of synch right now because our line is a liability. Rams had one sack in their 1st two game, and they had 2 yesterday against us. And when they didn’t get home they were disrupting plays. Not good! Preseason only showed vanilla packages, but the live bullets have blown up this OL, which has thrown off our timing, which is huge, as we all know, in the WC Offense.

  • Matt Hayton

    Pete H-

    Totally agree with you here. And for the record, I’m all for the blowout. That would be a huge statement game for this team and #12. I don’t think it will happen due to lineplay, which is really sad, because if we were better up front, I think we could give them a run for their money in their house. But we’ve won alot of games in the past when we shouldn’t have because of X,Y,Z…I’d love nothing more than to stomp ‘em! That would be huge…as I hate taking shit from Vikings fans after they win, so frickin fair-weather!

    The other Jeff, myself, and MH have rejected your question explicitly and refused to answer the silly “A or B” set up you proposed. (Are you using your best Clint Eastwood gravelly voice as you type your stark proposal and insist we comply?) Mark was the one who said let sleeping dogs.

    So this statement is bullshit: “I never said any of this…. You’re just rewording posts again to suit your madness. …” is bullshit.

  • packer_bob

    Matt,

    Good point about the TE’s. It is kind of hard for them to catch passes when they’re helping out blocking half the time.

    4205,

    Completely agree, Singletary got conservative. Most importantly, imo, by running the ball all three times when one first down would have iced the game. I even commented to a couple at the bar that if Singletary just ran up the gut again on third down he was really playing with fire as he was about to give Favre and company a second chance after they failed the first time. We all know the end result.

    Wish he just would have play action passed one time on second or third down, they were having good luck passing on the Vikes and they necessarily would have to sell out to stop the run. One first down and the game is over, instead he got Favre’d.

    Too bad for them, but more importantly for us.

  • Matt Hayton

    Yep, Singletary pulled a Sherman. Only thing is his defense is better than ours was. I like san fran out of the west this year…think they’ll be a tough out in the playoffs. Singeltary has them going. They’ll take yesterday’s loss and grow from it. I still remember that guy playing mike for the bears. Still see them beady little eyes staring down Lynn Dickey. Dude is intense.

  • packer_bob

    “The jury was out…. It’s now in & the verdict is ‘guilty’”—Who the hell are you, Judge Dredd? Do you run around your nursing home in your robe yelling “I am the Law!!”

    (Little comic book reference for you.)

    Hate to have bring reality up again, I don’t have any purple jerseys, Favre or otherwise. Nor do I have any Jets jerseys, Favre or otherwise.

    I’m way more worried about Jared Allen and AP on Oct 5th. If your brain worked, you would be too. Was hoping the Vikings (and Bears for that matter) would lose, but if you can’t at least respect what Favre did yesterday, you’re not even a football fan. At the bar I was at, there were Bear, Packer and even 49ers fans all hoping Favre would get sacked or throw a pick, but when he hit that pass the place exploded and even the opposing fans had to shake their heads and smile a little bit in disbelief.

    Are you even a football fan, Rocky, or do you just define yourself by what you hate?

    “Players do it, coaches do it…and so do fans????” Just an FYI : players and coaches actually have an impact on the success of the team. Personally, in all my years going to Lambeau, any bar I’ve been to, or any customers at the bar I used to work at, I’ve never heard a fan call another one out as false, pseudo etc. Football is for entertainment. Why in the hell would anyone say they are a fan of a team when they aren’t, or are actually fans of their rivals….Do you even realize just how stupid that sounds? Yep, I’m sure these guys get off of the blog and go laugh with all their Viking buddies about how they duped some people on here into believing that they are Packer fans….brilliant!!!!!!!!

    Funny, Servius, how all the analysts were saying the same thing on TV last night. They were all saying he’s gotten lucky 43 times in his career, and that was the first time he’d gotten lucky in a Vikings uniform.

    You’re right, he was nearly picked off, but I don’t see how that has anything to do with the play he made to win the game. The Niners got lucky in that wild card game in the 90′s where Jerry Rice fumbled and the ref’s blew the call. But I wouldn’t Steve Young got lucky with the last second strike to TO or the fact that he held on to it.

    You could say one team or the other “got lucky” or “got a break” in almost every close game. In those games it’s usually just a couple of plays that make the difference.

  • packer_bob

    Rocky, you are correct…my apologies on the name calling….useless and petty. As for me, I have been here for a long long time. I have no need to hide myself. Whats funny is that I used to go at it with a guy on here named Jon…who is your exact opposite. Look Rocky, it is not a black or white issue. What possibly makes you think that because you don’t like Favre anymore, which I completely understand, that noone else can…and still be a Packer fan. It doesn’t make any sense. I didn’t like Dorsey Levens all that much…thought he was over rated…However, I liked Edgar Bennett who played for the Bears. I still pulled for Reggie when he went to Carolina. I wanted to see Brooks be able to get his career back in Denver. It is because I am a Packer fan and appreciated what they did when they were here, not because I am not a “true fan”. Does Brett want to stck it to GB…you bet….so did Edgar Bennett. So what. While they were here they did everything they could to help us win…which they did more than not. Besides, the storyline for this game is awesome….Seriously, this is just gonna be fun

  • Rocky70

    @ Pete H.

    I fully appreciate your insight….. However, to pull for BF as the starting QB of the Vikes in a showdown game for the North Division lead equates to a Judas type scenario…. Did you or do you pull for Reggie, Bennett, Sharper, Longwell or a host of others when they played/play the Pack?

    Go to my original ‘poll question’….. You tell me why any PackFan can’t answer the question?….. It’s simple, direct & oh so revealing for some. …. Go ahead, explain away. ….. Here it is…. one more time….. It’s a relevant & pertinent question. … All I’m searching for is a little honesty from a few here.
    ____________________________________________________________________

    A. In a close game, GB pulls out a victory late on a 51 yard FG. (24-21)….. Both AR & BF throw 3 TD passes but a late INT by BF sets up the Pack for the winning kick.

    B. A blowout by GB (38-13) features AR throwing 3 TD passes & running for a 4th…. GB jumps out early forcing BF to throw 40+ times (22-42) in order to catch-up. …. BF throws 3 picks & is sacked 5 times…… He replaced in the 4th quarter by TJ.

    Now you apologists pick an option…… Pick ‘A’ or ‘B’. …. No need to explain your choice…… Just pick.

  • packer_bob

    So let me get this straight: Rocky calsl MH a Favre ball-washer and then calls somebody out for knucklehead? AND tells them it negates their post?

    Pete H,

    Clearly, you must be lying when you say this: “As for me, I have been here for a long long time.” That’s simply impossible, or Rocky would remember you. He knows all the real Pack fans here. Most likely you are one of the trolls on this board that post under multiple ID’s. Nice try though.

    Try to get some more experience and educate yourself before you post next time, so you don’t so sound so uniformed. (LOL)

  • packer_bob

    Piss off a second time on your question Rocky. Any scenario involving a Packer win would be fine with me, favor blow out could give a shit it if it involves Favre throwing 0 ints or 10.

    You’re a sick, sick man.

  • packer_bob

    “However, to pull for BF as the starting QB of the Vikes in a showdown game for the North Division lead equates to a Judas type scenario…. ”

    No shit, who said they are going to pull for Brett Favre? All of the posters here are talking about beating the Vikings. You’re lancing at windmills. I don’t see anybody on here talking about hoping BF leads the Vikes to victory.

  • Rocky70

    Sorry PB,

    I’ve been kinda breezing by your posts….. Old habits, I guess.

    I’ll stop & read one when I get a chance.

    A or B… simple question with a simple answer.

  • Jeff (the other one)

    There’s nothing relevant or pertinent about your question, Rocky, and the conclusions you draw from the answer, should I choose to provide one, are crap. Here’s why.

    Personally, for entertainment’s sake, I’d like to see a good hard-fought game. Yeah, I like a pitchers’ duel in baseball too. It’s just more entertaining to me. Additionally, the greater the opponent, the greater the glory of victory. Who cares about a win where the opponent either rolled over and kacked or just wasn’t up to your standards anyway? Anybody going to be talking about last week’s game after next week? Nope. Didn’t think so.

    The implications of a blowout would be amazing. I would love to find out that our team was that much better than the 3-0 Vikings. The conclusions to be drawn from such a win are greatly to be desired. The game itself would be forgotten by supper. See all the fun thinking you miss when you oversimplify things and try to cut off people’s creativity?

    I would revel in the conclusions to be drawn from a blowout, but I would rather watch a tight game. Read that again and try to decipher whether you think I’m an actual Packer fan or not. I love the mental image.

    All that said, I’ll let you pin me down. If the standard for being called a Packer fan around here is the desire to see a (formerly) treasured player humiliated and possibly injured (five sacks on that 40 year old body would stand a chance of ending this whole discussion), then put me down for ball-washer you insulting, anencephalic snotwiggle. Your validation is even less relevant than your question.

    Tell me – anybody here cheerng for Minnesota on Monday night?
    *crickets*
    That’s the only answer I need to know I’m among Packer fans.

    Say goodnight, Gracie.

    Read the one where you call MH a ball-washer then deny it a few posts later. Senility’s a real bummer, huh?

    I’m not about to legitimize your stupidity by answering your bullshit question. A win is what I want and I don’t care if it’s because we hold AP to 0 yards and make him fumble 3 times or because Favre throws 10 picks. Nobody but you gives a shit about it either. Your sickness is your own problem, have fun with it.

    BTW, your “old habit” is to breeze by the posts you can’t answer. Every time you get blown up, you change the subject.
