After reading these posts you would think that we lost the game. Move the fuck on. The Pack won by 9. I’m excited to see some Lion ass kicking. Go Fuck some shit up in Detroit Packers! Cat shit everywhere!

Everyone was moaning that when we were winning late in a game we would become conservative and now because AARON RODGERS threw an interception everyone aid moaning saying MM was being too attacking!

But every team has that set of plays for 4 mins left, any team is capable of marching the field, and they love to do it against us. Our bend but not break will llet them to the 30 like every time, and then one of these times they’ll get that TD.

I say NEVER give the ball back, you want your destiny in your own hands? Well do it your self!

I respectfully disagree with you all that there was any reason to throw the ball when Rodgers threw his INT. We’re up by 9 on their side of the field for crying out loud…and with 5:55 left! Each running play, assuming the runner’s sole job is to not fumble, means at worst you will run off two minutes of clock time taking it down to under 4 minutes. If we get a first down it’s pretty close to game over and if not….who cares? Punt the ball, pin them deep and let them march the field twice in 3:55 to beat you.

I have not bashed McCarthy at all this year and have come around big time on him being a great coach…which he is…but that was a horrible call. The goal in end game situations is not always the most logical thing. We don’t need to score points. We don’t really even need first downs there. All we need to do is hand the ball to a warm body three times and work the clock.

I would have no issue with the call if we were up by 8 because it is a one possession game. Duh. But with a two possession lead, the ball in their territory, and under 6 minutes left there’s no way in hell anyone is going to tell me that was a good call.

Your goal there is to run time, and keep control of the ball. Period.

Taking a knee in that spot had more upside than throwing.

We were up by 9 points with under 6 minutes left in the game. We could have run two minutes off the clock and maybe picked up a first down by running three times in a row. If we don’t pick it up then simply punt. With less than 4 minutes left and the Bucs needing 10 points to win, while being pinned deep in their own territory. I’d have felt pretty good about that.

A win’s a win. But F N A, I would like to see Bishop or Hawk occasionally get home when they both blitz! Or even once.

This defense is the definition of bend, but don’t completely break.

One of the things I love best about Packer Fans is our ability to bitch equally whether we are winning or losing….

It a family thing–you give your little brother all the hell in the world, but let someone else do it, and we’re on you like a hair shirt!

We bitch because we LOVE :D

Failed to mention Drive–he had a great game yesterday, and would’ve had a TD but for being held in teh endzone.

Thank goodness the bux ignored the white guy & the old guy.

GO PACK GO!!!

Completely agree. I’m tired of MM constantly getting criticized on this blog. I defended him against the blog writers and many of the other readers last year and am shocked that I still have to defend him this year. Fortunately, it seems like most of the readers have laid off the criticism of MM.

I like throwing on 1st and 10 in that situation, we have Rodgers, now we have the one bad one out of the way. Usually we can’t keep the ball moving when they know we will run.
