+/- Seahawks win!

Positives

When the team loses MLF can get roasted.  How about for a change we applaud the job he did this week?   They had a hard fought and emotional loss to Detroit and then had to go on the road to a place that has been rough on the team and very well could have been a let down.  MLF had them ready to play and had them ready in with an aggressive game plan.

Oline played incredible and it was freaking awesome to see them  pound the rock.

An NFC win and kept pace int he wild card.

If I was the other NFC playoff teams, I would want no part of this team come playoff time.

+WIN! (in Seattle!)

+7 Sacks and overall performance of the Defense

-2nd half slowdown on Offense. Need a complete game.

-MLF and his challenges. Just STOP!

Probably need 4 qtrs of good football for that.

If the packers front 7 plays like that they have a legit chance at the title.   Problem is the Lions and Eagles o line isn’t the same as the Hawks.

We put up 30 points while love had a pretty bad 2nd half and Jacob’s lost a fumble.   We have yet to see this offense put it all together for 4 quarters and I don’t know why.   If they get that rolling in the playoffs, watch the fuck out.

If MLF figures out a way to get more TD instead of FG in the red zone the Packers will be a REALLY tough out. Sometimes you gotta be able to outscore teams like Detroit and Buffalo.

Nice feeling going into the playoffs feeling like defense is now a strength.

While the similarities don't go much beyond this, that 2010 team was herky jerky on offense all season as well until they hit the playoffs.  Starks sparked that unit into high gear.  I remember after beating CHI in WK17 I thought they had "a shot" in PHI as long as they limited their mistakes because the mistakes that season always seemed to trip them up more than anything.

Yes.  No need to gamble every time in the RZ and 3 points certainty are usually better than nothing. Not saying go for it on every 4th down but a bit more creativity in play calling may help on downs 1,2 and 3.

And, don’t be mortified by going for it in 4 down territory.  Circumstances matter.

1. Packers are Not in the playoffs yet
2. The defense has 15 sacks in two games against Seattle and the Tennessee Titans. They have 40 sacks total on the year putting them in 7th place in the league for sacks.

Just A little rain on your parade 🤭😈

Believe me...I rain enough on my own parade! I am the the Grand Marshal of the Tournament of Dick-Steppin' when it comes to this team!

+ With the winter White uni's Packers look like they aren't wearing the concrete galoshes!

If the Packers do not get in the playoffs with a 10-4 record with 3 to play then that would be worse than losing to Seattle in 2012. The perfect storm hit them that day and it would take 3 perfect storms to lose their chance to get in the playoffs.

I predict by the time the Packers play Chicago the last game, their place in the playoff seeding will be determined and Malik Willis will play that game and beat the Bears causing the Bears to fire Poles and the entire staff.

++ They eliminated....I mean ERASED, DK Metcalf. Impressive.

George Kittle was in the crowd, who knew?😆

Metcalf went 3-for-28 yards, which is impressive to keep him off the board so much. The ones he did catch were earlier in the game. It also looked like they were force-feeding Charbonnet after that because Metcalf was erased.

Someone suggested LaFleur needs MFA before throwing the challenge flag.

Some "feel good" from Rich Eisen...

No he just needs to stop listening to the numb nuts upstairs telling him to do it.

0-6...FFS...

His most recent challenge vs. Seattle was not a bad challenge although I knew he wouldn't win it. If he wins it, that would've been double dagger 🗡️🗡️ and for the league to give him that, it has to be clear & concise evidence the refs got it wrong. QB's hand was going forward just barely enough.

He's saving his winning challenges for the playoffs 😉😁

Meanwhile .....in X land......

PACK nation ! Y’all showed up and showed out for us yesterday night ! Love to see it . Thing of beauty when your away but your fans make it still feel like a home game ! Yesssir !!! 💚💛

As for Seattle fans on Sunday night, 12th man my ass.

It was the 40 year anniversary! 😄

Love that the guy who rang the pregame bell for them was the fool who threw the touchdown pass on that fake field goal where Idot AJ Hawk did what anyonenin high school football knows is NOT your job!!!!

I'm stealing it as an example of an oxymoron.

German for "last night" is "gestern abend"/"gestern Nacht", with "gestern" meaning "yesterday".

I come here for the language lessons.

Don't be a wildpinkler

Better than a Sitzpinkler like Chongo.

of course I could be wrong, but on several of those challenges I thought LaFleur threw them just to get a longer timeout than he would if he just called timeout to slow the roll of what was going on   🤷‍♂️

Maybe he should have tried throwing the flags in German.

Pretty sure all the flags would be white.

It's the French flags that are white.

Well, Goldie's flags too.
