What is it with Favre and Monday nights?

This is Favre's Super Bowl. Like I said, don't be surprised if he throws 3 ints next week.

:weaksauce:

I've got 16 years on you watching this guy. Just wait. The guy is playing tonight, no denying it. He had a 6 td game last year.

 

[GreenNGold]

I'll be interested to see how McCarthy spins this one. I have no problem with the loss, but the penalties and lack of pass rush continue to be problems throughout his tenure as coach. They are an incredibly sloppy team. You can't win games consistently finishing in the top 3 most penalized times, I don't care how much talent you have.

He usually just says they need to adjust their pad level after games like this.

 

[j3r3m3y]

He is down.

 

[Britney Spears]

NO FUMBLE

 

[jurb26]

LOL, not even close to a fumble.

 

[smackdaddies]

no fumble

 

[MCguidance]

Obvious call.

 

[Big Rocks]

Surprised the refs made the right call on the field.

 

[Rhino]

Jeez my heart can't take too many of those!

 

[bostonfred]

How often do the refs overturn a call without a challenge?

 

[smackdaddies]

TD - but no. Nice tackle by Greenwood. Great play call, good d

 

[MCguidance]

Gotta go here?

 

[Werewolf Moderator Fan]

Gotta go for it here.

 

[Jewell]

Got to go for it.

 

[Michael Fox Fan]

Note to Finley: it helps to run your route deep enough to reach the endzone.

 

[Red Forman]

NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!!

 

[fflnut]

Good Lord, give the ball to Grant!

Yes, I'm a Grant owner. That said, I think he could have gotten in on that 2nd down with a few feet to go.

They discussed the call.

 

[MCguidance]

Man Grant gets vultchered big time.

 

[smackdaddies]

If it wasnt for my Packers getting kicked, I would say this is a pretty good game.

 

[massraider]

Aren't these supposed to be the best coaches in football?

If you are gonna go for it, have the dang play, and don't waste a timeout. So stupid. And you see it every week.

 

[GreenNGold]

Good Lord, give the ball to Grant!Yes, I'm a Grant owner. That said, I think he could have gotten in on that 2nd down with a few feet to go.

Same here. Give him the ball 3x in a row = much more likely TD than the crap we just saw.

 

[bostonfred]

This is all just setting up another 99 yard pass by Favre, isn't it?

 

[timschochet]

I think it's too early to go for it. There's plenty of time in this game.

 

[Billy1x]

This is an obvious Rogers run up the middle play. They always do it with 4 wide

 

[jurb26]

Not a Grant owner, but I agree. GB is being too cute at the GL. Just try and pound it in.

 

[Red Forman]

I wonder how much that plumber charges per hour..

Yeah in theory, but somehow TT became a GM and he hired McCarthy.

Grant owner also. Just keep it on the ground.Or NO PASS TO DRIVER!!!!(Full disclosure...Grant/Peterson owner going against the Driver owner. Pretty much even going into tonight's game.)

 

[MCguidance]

Thats a killer, he has to catch that.

 

[Michael Fox Fan]

gotta catch that.

 

[Werewolf Moderator Fan]

Nice throw by Rodgers. Nothing you can do about that.

 

[Red Forman]

lol

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Oooooooooooooooof.

 

[Jewell]

Dropped? That was less clutch than Clayton in the Pats game yesterday.

 

[ForteWillLeadTheWay]

Hit him in the hands.

 

[jurb26]

Wow, Rodgers showing some nice composure there. Lee, not so much....

 

[smackdaddies]

wow. Great o line work, good pass, in his hands, and he drops it.

 

[bostonfred]

Feel bad for Rodgers after that one.

 

[Britney Spears]

Ooof. Brutal.

 

[Knobs]

Drops the key touchdown...that's what you get for not throwing it to Jennings/Driver!

 

[Billy1x]

This is an obvious Rogers run up the middle play. They always do it with 4 wide

Rogers knew it was obvious to and changed the play

 

[timschochet]

It was a mistake to go for it. And I say that even if they had made it. There's 17 minutes left in the game, you don't have to have a TD there, but you do need to cut into the lead. Now you're left with nothing. Take the points.

It isn't limited to this game, or this team. I know you have a thing for TT (that no one here could care less about), but this is an NFL thing. Every week, it's unreal.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Phew..... Glad Lee dropped that ball. I wouldn't have wanted Packers fans to go through the whole game without something to complain about.

 

[None_More_Black]

Rodgers needs to get through his reads quicker.

 

[H.Wiggen]

Terrible play calling there IMO. If you can't gain half a yard on two plays running the ball you don't deserve to win. I don't care how good the defense is.

 

[smackdaddies]

That is a big killer than Favres last TD pass

You're left with your opponent playing from the 1-yard line. There is value in that.
