Purple Turds Pos/Neg

+ Most complete game of the year.

Negatives?   Um, none.

DAMN RIGHT, an absolute crushing, my dream game against the team, and neighbors I totally despise the most.        this game just made my season.  🥰 💚 💛

Your neighbors are Viking fans, piece of cake.  My next door assholes have a Let’s go Brandon flag and the guy next to them has a Fuck Biden flag on the porch.

True story.

++++ Every unit plated well. We gave the vikings something to worry about. Best game the Packers have played, all season.

---- We allowed two garbage time TDs. This game was never as close as the final score implied it might have been.

Really enjoyed seeing both Jefferson and Za'Darius shut down. Defense really only gave up two garbage-time touchdowns.

Our OLine protected ARod, well today.

One of the most joyous wins I recall since SB45.  Happy New Year, beating MIN, staying in playoff contention, at home, (chef's kiss)!

The win is positive and I am glad that I did not hear of any new injuries. Loved the turnovers and KR!

I am not thrilled with Rodgers only having 150 passing yards. He looked a tad off. But NO interceptions so maybe that’s a minor point.

Ah, fawk them……GO PACK GO.  

Phil Simms and Boomer Esiasan are redundant

Another positive: all the media members hand-wringing over Jaire's fluke comment ended up looking foolish.

I thought they were the same guy for several years.

Credos to Barry for thinking outside the box and *checks notes* putting the best cover guy on the best wide receiver

Like split screen movie magic.  Put glasses on one of them and they think we won't notice

How do I get a shamrock in our smily department???  

+  Fine dining tonight - Arby's has 4 for $10.00 on Packer game day. I have simple tastes.

Awesome to see us led by the D and ST(minus blocked punt). Didn't need to rely on 12 or hero ball this afternoon! 12 had an ok game.

Not sure what changes but we seem to respond when the backs against the wall!

Interesting to see if we can keep the fire going when Goff and the lions come to town next week!

Huge props to Barry, whatever buttons he pushed today!

Much of the Packer press, like some of the fan base, prefers a quiet, compliant personality to a “punk” like Jaire who dares to play with swag.

+++ I learned the Griddy

He did what he said you couldn't do after the first game.... pretty much proved himself wrong.

This was the first game this year where I saw total team preparation.
From the game plan, to the execution, to the team being ready to bring it. We actually looked like a professional, competent football team.

Many personal accolades; a few are Crosby, Nixon, Jones, Lizard, Cobb, Clark, Douglas, Amos, and Savage.

Blocked punt.
Garbage time TDs.

I hear ya, but the commitment to balance in this game is what they've missed most of the year. They aren't set up for track meets. Anything next week and beyond will require a heavy dose of the run and slowing games down. This was probably MLF's best playcalling of the season. At some point they will need AR to be clutch, but efforts like they had on def and specials set the tone.

At least you have smart neighbors.  I’m jealous.

Hopefully ST KR finally broke the seal and there will be more to come.

Negatives:

- Keisean Nixon

- Jaire Alexander

- Too many interceptions

Positives:

+ Justin Jefferson

Media members are a joke.  Journalists have been replaced by social media influencers.

Positives:

Win!

Bakhtiari held up amazingly well for having a recent appendectomy. Zach Tom played fairly well in relief of Nijman, as well. Jenkins is getting back to his old self, Myers and Runyan were solid.

Alexander on Jefferson much of the game finally.  The Jefferson excuse-o-matic is running on full for whineline.

Solid pass rush. Middle guys exploited Reed at Center rather than let a scrub hold them in check.

Z'Darius Nada!

Turnovers!

Barry: Figured out how to have guys play to win and Savage was an asset again.

Negatives:

Barry. Not only "about fucking time, idiot!", but on Clark's forced fumble/recovery Preston was on Jefferson again in zone. Luckily Kenny blew that up. That can't happen if they make the playoffs.

Watson: Had a poor game. Was interfered with on the one play, but should have caught the one and stayed too wide on the other, not leaving as window to pass to. Those mistakes lose games in the playoffs. Jones' should have had his long pass, as well, but the rest of his game was pretty good. Still, mistake that can't happen if they make the playoffs.

They look and act the same, but they were almost opposite players in terms of their actual play.  

Esiason put up big regular season numbers, made 4 Pro Bowls, and won an MVP. His teams made the playoffs twice and he shit the bed in the one Super Bowl he played in (11 for 25, 144 yards, 0 TDs, 1 interception in a 20-16 loss to the Niners).

Simms only made the Pro Bowl twice (once when he was 38 years old) and had very pedestrian regular season numbers. His team made the playoffs 7 times while he was a Giant and the one Super Bowl he played in he won the MVP with highest QB rating ever (22 for 25, 268, 3 TDs, 0 interceptions, and a 150.9 rating).

We don’t want to silence the dissenters now, do we?

Positives….

Anybody else notice the Packers are playing better since tshmack stopped watching? 

+ Harry Manback is not my neighbor.
