I wonder who would win in a fight. I bet that Brett would... but that Chilli would be scrappy and not as easy to dispose of as many people would expect.I'll say one thing in Childress' favor... he appears to be in better shape right now than Brett Favre.
Funny, when I saw that play, I had the opposite take. All week we've been hearing from people like Sterling Sharpe about how WR's are partially to blame for these concussions because they go running through the zones instead of slowing down and sitting in the seams like they are supposed to. And then what does Collinsworth say when Harvin does exactly that? He says Harvin should've kept moving to keep Collins from closing on him. Maybe we should get he and Sharpe in a studio and they can debate the issue.I'm pretty sure it was zone coverage and Harvin found the spot. It could be that Favre took a bit too long to find him or Collins was watching his eyes and anticipated the throw to Harvin. It's very possible it was just a good, heads-up play by Collins.
Hard to say...GB gets a FG there...maybe later they don't go for the fake or on 4th and short and kick another FG.Just too hard to say what would have happened had that play changed just because of the final score because it would possibly change some of the game plans and decisions that were made.
Is it possible that the Lions have the best coach in the NFC NorthDoubleG said:sho nuff said:Childress blames his players, Lovie blames no one and says everything is fine, and McCarthy says, "We'll have to watch he tape to find out who to blame."
I hope the 3 Stooges stick around for a long time coming... 
Like that incredible underhanded lob that should have been picked off, too? You can break down the INTs all you want and try to blame them on others, Favre threw a number of really bad passes last night. And on the most important play of the night he tripped over his own feet.
This.Childress is getting heat for being critical of Favre in the presser. Funny.Meanwhile, everyone in the press is talking about how sources in the locker room are saying that the players are not happy with Childress's running of the offense and the players wish Favre had more control in running the offense. The Childress/Favre rift has been widely reported all season long. Anyone think it was Childress going public with that? Maybe he should have voiced his displeasure in the form of an anonymous leak.I don't fault Childress much at this point. Every other bit of in-house dirty laundry has somehow made it out into the public eye by "sources" in the locker room, so why not just say it out in the open now? He's probably decided it's time to quite playing nice and start defending himself.It's never Favre is it? It's always someone else. His WR's, his coach, his GM.
I had the exact same thought. Did anyone see how he limped off the field at the end?This made me laugh. "Festus"
I was thinking Cindy Brady, but sure.JamesTheScot said:I had the exact same thought. Did anyone see how he limped off the field at the end?This made me laugh. "Festus"
No need to mess with Favre's signature move. You know it's coming. If he can just play another 5 years or so, when he throws that ill advised pick-6, he will grab his elbow and then switch over to limping when he remembers that it was his ankle that was on the injury report.
Of course there is this, the second article:http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikings/...mP:QMDCinchO7DU
Concur. Spot on for Childress to call out Favre. He's exactly right on target with this one.buck naked said:
I'm sorry but this is actually one instance where it's not Brad's fault. You have guys up in the booth to see all the angles and make the call to throw the challenge flag or not. You can not waste the TOs in a close and tough divisional match-up on the road. Score one for the Packers stadium guys for only showing the very best parts of that catch. You just can not fault him for that one.Now was his fault for not using those timeouts before the half to score. That was another in a long line of the worst head coaching decisions I've ever seen from Childress.
To be fair, after Favre threw what he thought was the game winning TD to Harvin, he tried to jump to celebrate and noticeably couldn't do it, so it's not like when things are going well everything is magically fine.
Why not? Yes Cutler threw for 4 picks. Yet, the refs and his coach let him down with an obvious TD which if called correctly, the game is over at 21-10. AT least 4 different experts (NFL Network guys; Aikman etc) said Knox had a lot to blame for 2 of the ints. YET Cutler said in the presser that all 4 TDs were his fault. That is being a stand up guy. Cutler does not fake injuries. Favre is a drama queen who has been doing this for years. I remember in his prime too, when Favre would lose a game (for eg I remember the MNF game against Panthers very well where Hoover ran all over the packers) and he would not even shake anyones hands after the loss....so much for someone who just loves to play the game). He is a fraud and he is being exposed now because packer fans finally are willing to admit this too now that they see threw his BS.
Yeah Cutler a stand up guy. Said he didnt sweat DeAngelo Hall(4 individual interceptions including a pick 6 off Cutler yesterday) at all and would continue to throw at him if they played again tommorow
When DeAngelo was told of this on NFL Networks "Around the League" he responded "If I played Jay Cutler every Sunday I would be in the Hall of Fame right now!"
Cutler is Favre Lite... Pretty much the same player but Cutler will never win a SB, because his attic is bare...
There was much more than that... Chilly was going on and on about Favre going to one side of the field when the play was designed to go to the other.There was a lot of frustration coming out in that press conference. People act like that a lot when their concoction blows up in their face.
