I've never seen Jesse not drunk.  We play rock/paper/scissors for who has to sit next to him.  

Who has to sit next to the drunk on the other side?

Doc's family room is bigger than my whole trailer.

Touche Henry

Packers already get a week off.  The starters need to at least play a series or two next week.

Agree.  Play the first couple series.  

Bahk and Jaire need to play a half.

What was the crowd chanting on that last 4th down play?

Sounded like an impromptu go pack go.

Wold be nice if they’re back.

Can they bring in Benkert to kneel?

Hope to see him get some playing time next week.

I can’t think of any negatives I would post on +-.  Really, all positives.

Just so y'all know, I called dagger at 13-0 Packers.

23 pages. Whoa

Yea, game threads run almost as fast as chat rooms used to.

Even Special Teams.....

Moore looks a lot more confident handling kicks and punts.  May have saved Mo's season.

I love this site but there's some strength in knowing I don't live here.

Only negative, Jordan Love will probably be missing a lot of weapons due to rest next week.  I bet Adams, Lazard, Lewis, and Jones all rest and maybe MVS too.  I’m thinking Dillon will play only because Turner probably can’t handle 25+ carries.

Packers start Love just so the Lions don’t get the #1 pick.   Jags 2 wins, Lions beat Love the get 3rd Win.

I called it as soon as Cousins reported his Covid symptoms

That new kick returner looks solid.

Read the game threads from here and there.

Packer fans all doom and gloom at first. Then relax and bring on some comedy after the Pack pulls away. Anti-vaxxers blaming Al Michaels when he wasn't even there.

Viking fans wasting 5 pages on nonsense before the game even starts. Then proceed to bitch about the refs! ...normal behavior.

They would have to move him up from the PS. That would be tricky if there's no one on the Covid list. With all the guys they are likely to not play they are going to need other positions that need to rotate.

Maybe Love gets injured next week?

Yeah, they have to have some kind of backup plan. Is it Rodgers? Benkert? A WR?

Vikings fans whining about Zimmer NOT throwing Mond to the wolves is peak Vikings fan. Plus Mannion sucks enough if cousins can't go they may lose next week and get a better draft pick.

Mond looked pretty damn terrible on the one series.  He was definitely going to throw a pick.

In other Zimmer words, "Because I see Mond suck every day and I don't want to play him." And it certainly looked that way when he was in there. Let's take bets on if they draft another QB in a non-QB year...

They may have better luck going Opposite George in finding a QB.  So go low round in an off-QB year.
