@MichiganPacker2 posted:I'm actually more concerned about how Love has played so far than winning or losing this game. Love has looked like a deer in the headlights so far tonight. He's missed a lot of easy throws and it looks like the moment is too big for him. That's not what I expected after the playoffs last year.
Of 7 plays where Love had to step back, the Loins blitzed 5 times. Hard to get into any kind of a rhythm when the loins are in your lap before you can locate a receiver.
Run the Damn ball!
I think it’s time to admit that Campbell is a damn good coach. I see him having a career like Tomlin. Even when the talent is down, they will be tough to beat.

Don't disagree. The most surprising thing so far is the lack of high level play by the Packer O-Line.
I didn't expect that & the Lions D-Line, to their credit, is playing WAYY over their heads.
That's the difference so far to me.
Also....The Packers bring the best out of everybody because everyone knows the Packers are the team to beat
At Lambeau DET jumped ahead, took a nap until GB got within a score then flipped the switch again to stay out of reach. This so far feels the same.
I remember when GB used to be able to do that with teams. Don't have the D for that. Not quite there on O either.

but instead they had a chance to start the game with the ball and fucking deferred
Packers have played just 4 games against teams with winning records to date.
They are 1-3 in those contests, with the lone victory coming on the final play of the game at Lambeau against a Texans team that only has a winning record because they are 4-0 against other pathetic AFC South teams.
It is great that GB has taken care of the Bears, Jags, Titans, Dolphins, etc., but at some point you either show up against the Eagles, Vikes, and Lions or you flame out in the playoffs prior to reaching the Super Bowl ... once again.

They're the kind of team that watches their QB take hits late and don't answer in kind. It's mean and nasty and also necessary. Love is playing like he knows it's coming and Goff isn't. Until you change that you don't beat this team. Not tonight and not the next time in the playoffs. Goff fades from physical. Get on him.
pack needs to score on the opening drive of the second half, no excuse of three and out
Guess we're going to find out.
Have to be mistake free in this half and probably going to need 1 or 2 Turnovers from the Lie Downs. It’s probably not going to happen but I still have some hope.

That’s basically Marty schottenheimer to a tee
MLF needs to go all gas 2nd half. 4 plays to get 1st downs. Fuck rational thinking. You have to make a statement. Go win the game with whatever it takes.
There it is!!!
Didn't fumble that time!
There we go Christian
@Packwarrior posted:Thoroughly outplayed in all facets of the game including coaching.
MLF is not a top NFL HC, far from it. Also, the Lions went 4-8 on 3rd down conversion in the 1st half.
