Re: Packer fan thought
I don't think that defensively there are injury problems, coordinator problems, or lack of talent.
I heard someone make a statement today that has a ring of truth to it. It went something like... "The Pack defense knows what the offense will do, so they're only playing lackluster. When they know they need a stop they do it. But, they don't yet feel the need, so why expend the same effort." If you watch, you could almost get that impression. I don't know what to say. Peace of the Lord be with you. |
Re: Packer fan thought
The Steelers seem to play that way on both sides of the ball. It's maddening.
Just look at the loss this weekend. They had the whole game to put the game away, all the chances in the world. It's like there's no urgency or killer instinct. It used to be they'd come out and step on your neck and not let you up for 60 minutes. Now they'd rather dance and have a nice cup of espresso. In the end I suppose it boils down to "who wants it most?" It just doesn't seem like that anymore. I suppose we have to realize that the guys don't practice nearly as much as they used to and get far fewer reps to get their timing together. That's why tandems like Rodgers and Jennings are so important and successful. They have years of experience together, tons of reps, they think alike, they're on the same page, and each one knows what the other is going to do. Lots of the guys on these clubs are just feeling around in the dark compared to how they used to get prepared. It's hard to develop a locker-room spirit if the guys are never in the locker room, ya know? |

I think my youngest, Timothy, hit it on the head too. "Practice once a week with full pads? Geez, I wish we had it that easy. And I'm not even paid as a high school freshman. How can you be good at hitting if you don't practice it? Maybe that's why the tackling sucked on Sunday."
Hmm? Is the new CBA part of the problem? |

I wasn't ever really sure why we let Cullen Jenkins go.

Maybe they figured since they got to the Super Bowl without him they could do without him (even though he was back for the end of the season)? I'd guess it goes right back to point 1. Money. |

Packers are looking unstoppable tonight as they just scored another TD to make it 24-0 over the Vikings. Their "D" looks up to par as well.
If #74 Marshall Newhouse can just get it together against Jarred Allan, we'll be better at the "O". |
