2013 TM93 WK14 Atlanta vs Green Bay Gameday Thread

Lacy...maybe the grittiest player on the team...limping off the field to end the half. 

 

2013. Just wasn't meant to be.

I don't like the booing and I don't like seeing Lacy limping in after a pointless play to end the half.

And the boo birds are coming out

 

This team is seriously a LMAO outfit right now - maybe the worst team in the league

 

We are getting schooled by a 3-9 dome team at home in the snow

 

Excuse me while I go drive off a cliff

Yeah it's pretty dumb of the fans to boo. The smart ones have left for home

You guys have a lot more intestinal fortitude than me. I stopped watching with the score 7-7 and the Falcons 1st and goal. I figured it was a foregone conclusion when a dome team, that struggled inside, was moving the ball pretty effortlessly against the Packers epically bad defense. And Matt Flynn is the Packers QB.

 

Still 4 more weeks to go before the page is officially turned.

Cavetoad....

 

I'm a glass half-full guy, but if I'm freezing my ass off watching that crap-----I'm booing too.

Seriously, doesn't this fold job after losing your QB bring up some serious questions about your HC and GM? The recent drafts have been less than stellar, and MM seems lost without AR. Datone Jones? I haven't heard anything about him since camp. If you're going to "draft and develop", you HAVE to hit on your drafts and you HAVE to have the coaching staff to develop.

 

If you think how many plays AR makes on broken plays, you almost have to wonder how many of those plays were that great to begin with.

Here's the positive: years like this don't happen very often at all in GB. We have the best player in the league, and he's going to be back next year.

 

Get a new D coordinator, hope like hell TT pulls some personnel miracles (he's proven the ability to do this in the past) and get back to business in 2014.

Lacy will be good to go in the 2nd half, mark it down! Tolzien may not be able to run he no huddle, but at least he has a much stronger arm, and his pocket presence can't possibly be any worse than Flynn's. McCarthy should consider just dumping the no huddle in order to take advantage of his arm and use a slow, plodding ball control style offense.

Screw the don't boo people....the last 6.5 weeks is Kworst genre pathetic.

Comes a point when injuries aren't a reason, but an excuse.

Time for Tolzien. Team is beginning to remind me of those woeful ones during the '80s.

I probably wouldn't boo the Packers at this point (it'd take a coupe 4-12 seasons probably), but I can't really blame the people who are. This team needs the other 21 starters to step up and win just one game, and they've looked abysmal.

While the play has been abysmal, TT and MM aren't going anywhere.  That ship for the Farve lovers sailed after they won a Super Bowl, and one bad season isn't going to change that.  There likely are going to be changes on staff, DC and Special Teams most probable. 

So, keep harping on TT and MM....the rest of us can focus on things that can or are likely to happen in the off season.

Hmmm when you put it that way....

 

I watched that on replay BK. He took like 3 steps and stopped. How a coach can put up with that is beyond me. I'd make him sit on the bench the entire 2nd half...away from the heaters.

Capers is the #1 problem on this team (while they are talent-deficient on defense, they're nowhere near bottom of the league bad), but the offensive line isn't very good, the WRs are  over-rated and the play-calling on offense has been lacking at times. However, only a complete moron thinks McCarthy or Thompson need to go. Even if they totally bomb next year, they still probably deserve another shot in '15.

I was all for keeping Flynn as the starter after he fought back against Minnesota. Clearly he doesn't have the arm to be a functional QB, though. When opponents have the opportunity to gameplan against him, they aren't required to respect the deep ball. That's a serious problem.

 

I've come full circle on this...let Tolzien close the season out. Who cares if he throws too many picks...this season is lost. Let him take his lumps this month, and hopefully he shows progression in the offense. He has the skills to be a good backup QB.

I'm not saying they are or should go anywhere. But I think it's fair to hold them accountable for this mess. They get the credit when we win, they need to get some criticism when the team implodes.

Couldn't have said it better myself Fon Du.

 

 

 

What makes you say the WR's are over rated?   Nelson has been a bright spot.  I could see you saying that Jones looks medicore, but Nelson looks like a legit #1 with a crap QB.

You are going to "hold them accountable" how???  The only way you hold a Coach or GM "accountable" is to fire them.  Since that isn't going to happen, its a waste of time to talk about.

MAYBE????

"You are going to "hold them accountable" how???  The only way you hold a Coach or GM "accountable" is to fire them.  Since that isn't going to happen, its a waste of time to talk about."

 

What isn't a wast of time to talk about on a FAN message board?

 

It's the whole point of this place!!

That ankle looked bad.

So, Lacy's clearly done for the year.

Say what

What's the point. BTW, sit Lacy please.

I guess by "hold accountable", I mean being able to question them on a football forum or in the press? Is that okay?

I try not to bitch about play calling too much, because I think it's just too easy for a fan to do it, but having Lacy out there to basically run the clock out at the end of the half...not smart. Wouldn't Flynn taking a knee been a hell of a lot better?

 

Then again, it is easy for me to say that after the fact.

Good time for a 3 and out!

 

Exactly!!! Wanna develop a young QB? Let him play.

The first 100 times you post it, yeah.  Feel better now?

Flynn has nothing left on the fastball

Unfortunately, can't sit Flynn.  Flynn knows more of the playbook and MM can go hurry-up with him.  Tolzien isn't ready.  And (theoretically), they are still alive for the playoffs.

Jordy Nelson is overrated.

sack in the red zone... shocking.

There goes that famous redzone sack that we've made famous

Nice job getting the corner there by Starks
