Packer fan thoughts - Page 6

Thought the Bears put up a decent game with their QB and RB out, McNown and Bell were impressive.

Congrats to the Packer fans, and good luck in the playoffs....except if you play the Lions.

Enjoyed sitting at Lambeau last night. We won! Yippee!

The defense needs some serious work. We couldn't stop that run. That worries me as we head into post-season.

At this point, Packers opponents have more yardage than that Packers in their 14-1 record season. That's just astounding.

That blew me away too Rev!

So, is Matt Flynn gonna be the starting QB tomorrow or are they gonna go with Rogers for 3 or 4 possessions before substituting Flynn into the game with Detroit?

I don't have a problem with Flynn starting tomorrow, just hope he stays healthy for the duration of it. Hate to see something happen to him and Rogers has to come in and finish the game, which I'm sure the Lion's "D" would love to see occur.

Even though the media states this is a meaningless game for the Packers, I'd still like to see them win to have the best positive stats at years end

I hope Rogers plays a few series, as he's my QB in the fantasy championship tomorrow. I would imagine if he does play, he won't see the end of the half. Flynn and Harrell will probably finish it off.

Lot's of prideful things to play for. 15-1 has never been done in GB, they've never swept their division, and the Lions haven't won at Lambeau in ages.
But, it's the coach's call.

15-1 baybee! What a game.

Volusianator · 01-01-2012, 02:53 PM

Matt Flynn sets the Packers all time single game touchdown record with 6 and all time single game passing record with 480 yards! Well done Matt, now give Aaron the MVP and let's finish this season strong!

Based on Flynn's performance, Rodgers clearly is not the MVP. Packers are still dominant without him.
My vote would be for Drew Brees.

Well then, you don't get a vote, Peter.

Not sure why having a capable back-up would make any difference.

Don't misunderstand my post. Rodgers is the best QB in the game today. But having a capable back-up and quality team around him is exactly why he is not the most valuable player, IMO.

Take Drew Brees out of the NO lineup, and they are just another good team. He is far more valuable.

One thing we absolutely agree on. I don't get a vote.

I agree with Brees value to his team (and the league, for that matter).
This will be an interesting choice this year. I don't think you can argue if either wins.

Either player is deserving. You could even toss Brady in the mix considering how bad the Patriots defense is.

The voting will be interesting.

I can see your point in that Rogers has an equal backup. Who is the backup for New Orleans should Brees go down for the count?

Chase Daniel I believe.

Based on that line of thinking, we should retroactively take away Tom Brady's 2007 MVP award and give it to Peyton Manning.

I wonder who had the other vote.

48-2 for your NFL MVP, Aaron Rodgers.

Touché, Tim. I pretty well thought he WOULD win it. I just have different criteria than those whose votes matter.
