I'm almost certain any kind of PA woulda worked in that situation.

These comments sting a bit. NO offensive line got manhandled all game. No one could've sniffed the goal-line on the last play.

He was dropped on contact all game. He looked soft and unprepared for the NFL.

first game agaisnt sb champs.  he showed he had power

 

[651akathepaul]

No he didn't. He was soft.

The kids had off of school because of a night game though 

Green Bay's the @@+!

That's what I love about it! Like seriously all the time I've spent there has been amazing.

Its not even just Green Bay though, its the whole state. I remember when I was little I went to that Packers Vikings Monday night game when Antonio Freeman made that miracle catch and I missed school the next day cause i didnt get home until 3 am. My teacher asked me why I missed school and I said it was cause I was at the Packer game the night before. I was excused...

Green Bays on another level though

ingram played his +#+ off. he's gonna have a good season.
what a game though

 

 

[651akathepaul]

I'm not writing him off because the Packers D is studly, but damn...not impressed at all with that showing.

 

[DeadsetAce]

i hear ya. i know you mean the game as a whole...but that last play, awful call. i've seen it happen in NE way too often on third and shorts...line up and up the gut. you have top end QB talent and a variety of receiving targets...on second thought, the obvious call was to pass, so maybe they were trying to be creative

 

[651akathepaul]

Even before that last play...I posted about a run he had earlier in the game too. He got no push and his instincts weren't there. Bad play call or not, he made it look worse then it might have been just because of that crappy effort.

I quickly soured on him after tonight.

our strengths were utterly crushed and defeated. worst defensive preparation and game scheme yet since the 3-4 switch. CB play was bad, but Capers did not make the necessary adjustments. I acknowledge Brees is excellent and at the top, but this was very frustrating to watch.
hopefully next weeks Panthers matchup can serve as a tune up

Jimmy Graham.

Just finished my recording... that game was crazy. Absolutely everything I want in a football game save for a couple huge hits.

Who is she? 
I don't like the last play call. Brees was on fire. What an opening game! 

Courtney Divine

Just googled her on the images to see more pictures of her even though I have no idea about her occupation. She isn't there. And then, I clicked the link, "Did you mean: Courtney Devine". My face was like this 

EDIT: Can anyone tell me more about Randall Cobb? I never heard of him 'till the opening game. Is he the real deal? 

 

[jdcurt2]

d3:  He's the real deal. He'll throw and rush for a td this season too.

 

[aj27526]

I'll just say I was amazed to see him fall to the 2nd round and was very happy to pick him up

 

[ultralightbeam]

What a game.

The Pack 1-0, baby.

I fully expected a high scoring game. Brees did his thing. I wouldn't be too down if I was a Saints fan. Your team will be fine and be making noise all season.


But, man. These Packers look like a force to be reckoned with, especially offensively. Matchup nightmares all over the field. and AR-12 is as lethal as it gets. Defense could tighten up a bit, but then again....it's Drew Brees and his high powered offense we went up against.

What a game. And what a season we have ahead of us.

For what? Cause its the first game of the season? They played a hell of a game I think the man can be happy.

Side note they picked on PRob and Harper like they were freshman in HS.

GG pack fans hopefully our unit begins to gel more as the season progress and I hope Will Smith comes back from the suspension hungry
