Packer fan thoughts - Page 19

MarkinAZ · 12-30-2012, 10:46 PM

Left during the 2nd Qrt to go see The Hobbit in 3D with the wife. Daughter was texting me with one of the scores when the Vikes were up 20-17 at some point. Guess I missed a close one this afternoon. Vikes 37-34 over the Pack. Drops the Pack down to #3 seed in the playoffs. Vikes come to Lambeau next week?

Good luck to your Packers in the playoffs Rev. I would love a rematch in the Super Bowl.

Good game today.

Door closes on the Bears, rematch next week!

Great game. Surprisingly, I'm not really all that disappointed....for a couple/few reasons....

1. Bears are done
2. I'm far more confident about next week's game.
3. I think we need a week of game-work more than a week off
4. Bears are done

If anything our defense should be nice and fresh since they took yesterday off.

I hate the Packers and their fans more than ever now.

RevSmoke · 12-31-2012, 11:31 AM

I must admit, I am not all that confident, even in Lambeau, that the Packers can beat the Vikings - or anybody else. The defense is definitely not up to snuff.

A few years ago, everybody said how good the defense was. They were not. They allowed more yards running and passing than just about anybody else. They were however, great in takeaways. While that is nice, you cannot depend on takeaways to win games, they may not happen. That approach is to rely upon the weaknesses of other teams offenses.

This year we cannot stop anybody consistently, and the number of takeaways being generated isn't helping.

I don't see myself as a pessimist (although that is the label my sons have given me). I am trying to be honestly critical though, and maybe it might be a bit over-critical. But, I'd rather be surprised than disappointed.

Miles91Collins · 01-03-2013, 09:54 PM

I will admit that I am not sure where the Pack will go this year.

RevSmoke · 01-05-2013, 09:20 PM

Looking good. Seems they have put a bit of a handle on AP tonight.

icehog3 · 01-05-2013, 09:25 PM

Who do the Packers play next week? I need to know who I am rooting for.

I like it when you root against the Pack, Tom. You rooted for them Week 17 and look how that turned out.

He's so good, quarterbacks trip over him (literally) just to have the honor of saying that they were once sacked by Clay Matthews.

Either that, or they mistook him for Carmen Electra.
