Henry starting the game thread. 

We have definitely entered the twilight zone.

I can't remember the last time the Packers were +700 on the M/L - entering early 90's Anthony Dilweg territory.

That schyt NEVER happened when Scoop ran this place.

Not judging, but just sayin’.

Coin Flippers

As per team tradition, the Packers select game captains each week. Today's captains will be C Corey Linsley (offense), S Josh Jones (defense) and LB Joe Thomas (special teams).

I found this interesting at Football Outsiders, not 50 Drunks in a Bar.

Keenum is the first starting quarterback this season to play the Rams and not get sacked, and just the second to not throw an interception. Along with opponent adjustments, the lack of negative plays are the biggest reasons he ranks No. 1 this week. He was very good at moving the chains -- on third downs, he went 11-of-13 for 106 yards and eight conversions. That includes eight conversions in ten plays with 7 yards or less to go, and failures with 8, 14, and 32 yards to go.

 

Ouch.

We've got a lot of comments this week about guys' performance in the red zone or in opponents' territory. For Hundley, the problems actually started outside the Green Bay 40 -- you know, the other 60 percent of the field. In that range, Hundley went 5-of-11 for 53 yards with one first down, one intentional grounding, one interception, and three sacks.

Feast or famine for Cutler. Five of his completions resulted in first downs, and the sixth was a 7-yard gain on first-and-10. But half of his incomplete passes were intercepted. The Bucs had six interceptions in their first nine games, and then three in one half thanks to Cutler.

Kizer gets a boost of nearly 100 DYAR due to opponent adjustments and still finishes this low. His first quarter was some serious nightmare fuel: sack, interception, sack, incomplete, incomplete. To be sure, he still had his struggles after that, including sack-fumbles on back-to-back plays in the fourth quarter. On third and fourth downs, he went 4-of-9 for 22 yards with three sacks, two fumbles, and just one conversion.

Prescott has now finished next-to-last two weeks in a row with Tyron Smith on the sidelines. Over those two weeks, he has had the NFL's worst passing statistics by more than 100 DYAR. In the red zone against Philadelphia, he went 2-of-5 for 6 yards with no touchdowns, one sack, and one interception. On third and fourth downs, he went 3-of-11 for 25 yards with two conversions, two interceptions, and one sack-fumble which was returned for an Eagles touchdown.


Dak Prescott = Poor man's Daunte Culpepper.  Jay Cutler = Always hilarious.

Back from holiday and am genuinely surprised this game did not get flexed to 3:25 p.m. (or Noon).

Given Hundley's Prime Time audience, I thoroughly look forward to how MM will respond to criticism that is sure to follow after the game.

With an over/under of 12, I am taking the over on the number of times Kaep is mentioned by the broadcasters... in the first half.
