Packers 2015 Thread

The Packers are 2-0 with massive injuries to their offense. We lost our #1 WR in Nelson for the year and our #1 tackle (Bulaga) for six weeks. Eddie Lacy goes down so we are out three of our top four on offense and we still beat the 'Hawks. It is gonna be a tough ride without Bulaga at tackle but losing Lacy I thought was going to be the downfall of our rushing attack. James Starks sure proved me wrong. And the defense showed up with a bunch of no names last night. Elliot and Pennel are undrafted and played significant time. Hyde and Palmer are 5th and 6th rounders playing loads of snaps too. Gonna be interesting next week against KC.

Hyde was the most impressive to me yesterday. He seemed to be involved on almost every single play. I'd like to see Matthews involved more in the pass rush, but whatever works.

lommer · September 21, 2015 3:18AM

I really like Ty Montgomery, looks like he will be a playmaker. That, along with Rodgers' trust in James Jones, hopefully means the loss of Nelson isn't too bad.

NFC Championship road goes smack through GB. Boooooooo!

Sounds like Lacy will be day to day which is great news.

bronco2078 · September 22, 2015 7:32AM

I try to catch the packers games if they don't conflict with something else . Mostly just to watch Aaron Rodgers , I think he is the most skilled QB in the league at this point. He didn't disappoint the other night either . I don't know if my Patriots can get back to the superbowl this year with the defense we have but I feel like if they do it will be Green Bay on the other side and that will be a great match up.

perkdog · September 22, 2015 8:36AM

Im thinking the Pack will be the team representing the NFC this year.

Its hard not to genually like the Packers for whatever reason but I dont think Rodgers is better than Brady though, Im not flaming nor am I trying to derail just my opinion.

FavreFan1971 · September 29, 2015 5:29AM

Rodgers sure lit it up again last night. Adams goes down on play one and Montgomery steps right in with a couple of grabs and few key blocks. Jones sure came to play again. What a heck of a pickup. With the game in control we were able to get Alonzo Harris in the game for his first two carries of his career. Mike Daniels played particularly well tonight. Clay was healthy and it showed. 3-0 baby!

FavreFan1971 · October 12, 2015 1:13AM

Well, Rodgers IS human. Three turnovers this game. He clearly was not at his best but the defense stepped up again and basically assaulted Foles all day. Seeing Gurley for the first time was a site to see. That is something special. My daughter said she wants to see Brady vs Rodgers in the Super Bowl. I would love to see that too but it is way to early to discuss that.

<< <i> Seeing Gurley for the first time was a site to see. That is something special. . >>

Watched him at UGA, kid is a stud on the field. Keep eyes on him now that he's back in the game from the injury in college.

FavreFan1971 · October 15, 2015 11:29PM

Great article about Bobby Dillon. How many of you knew he had one eye and had over 50 interceptions? Bobby Dillon?

FavreFan1971 · October 30, 2015 5:02AM

Going up against Denver. Both teams undefeated. Gonna be fun to watch.

FavreFan1971 · November 1, 2015 11:04PM

Well that was not fun to watch if you are a Packer fan. We got our tailed handed to us. Kudos to the Denver for a perfect game plan.

seebelow · November 1, 2015 11:05PM

GB just could never get in it

BaltimoreYankee · November 2, 2015 6:01AM

That Denver pass coverage was ridiculous.

bronco2078 · November 2, 2015 6:20AM

I didn't see much in the way of adjustments from Green Bay at half time. It reminded me of the game against Seattle last year. They seemed to just stick to what they were doing from beginning to end .

seebelow · November 2, 2015 7:57AM

baltimoreyank.....true....rodgers threw for 77 yds total? vs 340 by the old(?) guy

Agreed it was rough. I am a die hard and I turned it off after the safety to watch the World Series. Been a looooong time since I turned off a game.

thebaseballcardkid · November 6, 2015 2:02PM

Its still early for them to get it together for their run.

I'm not sure what you're talking about - that was a great game! Hoping for a few more of those.

FavreFan1971 · November 9, 2015 1:59AM

Uggg, two in a row now. Two stinkers. Need Sheilds back from his injury.

JoeBanzai · November 15, 2015 9:25AM

Wow! What's happening to the Packers?

FavreFan1971 · November 15, 2015 11:46PM

Dear Lord. What a nasty three game run. I have no excuses just failing at every aspect of the game recently. At least the Bucks are doing well.

Mike Ditka curse.

VikingDude · November 20, 2015 11:14AM

Hoping for 4 in a row.

JoeBanzai · November 20, 2015 2:39PM

Go Vikes!

VikingDude · November 22, 2015 10:09AM

Ouch. Gotta protect Teddy B better...

JoeBanzai · November 22, 2015 1:36PM

Offensive line is a problem!

FavreFan1971 · November 23, 2015 12:00AM

Finally! We got one. Defense played great. O-line is still struggling. Now a short week and we play Jay Cutler.

JoeBanzai · November 23, 2015 9:53AM

Have to give the Packers credit, they came in and soundly beat my Vikings.

I hope the final regular season game will be for the division championship and is a more competitive game!

Last year it was Lions game at Lambeau like that. Would be a great finish to the year.

perkdog · November 26, 2015 9:31PM

I'm not being disrespectful but this Packer team is not a Super Bowl team, the offense is clearly not playing at the level they should be at, not sure if it's Rodgers or the play calling but this team font scare anyone.

VikingDude · November 27, 2015 10:28PM

They are not elite.

FavreFan1971 · November 30, 2015 6:21AM

another brutal game to watch as a Packer fan. Wish I would have had the turkey como for the game. The offense is just not there. Defense is doing well. Punting is just plain terrible.

BLUEJAYWAY · December 3, 2015 1:59PM

What an ending tonight!

grote15 · December 3, 2015 3:42PM

That was some finish! And why in the world wasn't Calvin Johnson back there on defense in the end zone??!!

seebelow · December 3, 2015 8:09PM

NEVER let aaron run to his right...esp for a 60 yd deep ball and he can set up

and the facemark was the end of the play..cant put yourself in position where the ref can call a penalty

FavreFan1971 · December 4, 2015 12:37AM

Crazy finish. Was not a fun first 2.5 quarters to watch for Packer fans. The O-line is using high schoolers because we are so injured. In my opinion if we would have lost that game the season is lost. Looking forward to 10 days off the heal up some of these guys.

Funny stuff Tim, because everyone that I talked to about that crazy finish said the EXACT same thing lol

FavreFan1971 · December 14, 2015 12:23AM

McCarthy took over play calling and we are now 9-4 and control the division.

FavreFan1971 · December 21, 2015 1:14AM

Packers clinch a Playoff spot. Most likely we will have the #3 seed but could squeak out the #2 with AZ losing two straight as they play GB and SEA. But the Pack has to beat AZ and Min to even think of that.

It is crazy to think that two teams with losing records could make the playoffs in both the AFC and NFC

FavreFan1971 · December 27, 2015 11:09PM

Well, when it rains it pours. Three starting OL out. Top run stopper out. Top cover corner out. Result. Complete and udder arse whopping.

telephoto1 · December 29, 2015 2:50AM

Even a healthy Packer squad would have problems with Arizona, a team that is peaking at the right time.

VikingDude · December 29, 2015 1:34PM

This Sunday should be a very good game!

VikingDude · January 3, 2016 9:42PM

Have to like the Vikings D. Ball bounced GB's way a few times; usually when that happens the outcome is different.

JoeBanzai · January 3, 2016 10:26PM

Great win! Offense needs to do more!!!!!

FavreFan1971 · January 7, 2016 1:37AM

alright, do we even have a chance this weekend?

JoeBanzai · January 7, 2016 8:52AM

I don't know much about Washington, but you still have a GREAT QB!!!!!!

FavreFan1971 · January 10, 2016 10:19AM

Wow! We are back. We started off like crap but sure finished like champs. Gotta fell for Minn. though.

JoeBanzai · January 10, 2016 1:30PM

Would have rather been blown out!

bronco2078 · January 16, 2016 1:41PM

What a nail-biter that was . I was rooting for the cards but I thought they gave it away and green bay was going to win it after that hail mary .
