i'd call it the equivalent of a 1.5 or 2.0 sack game against any other O-Line in the league.
Subtract at least one sack for Aaron Rodgers refusing to throw at the feet of his TE/RBs to avoid a sack.
I thought Rodgers played great. For the most part. But yes he did take the sack instead of just throwing it away at least once.
more then one but the most obvious was the safety when he had donald lee three feet in front of him ... dont even have to complete the pass just avoid the sack.He has a tendency to try to make plays happen when it just isn't going to work out.
That is what pressure does to a QB. They make poor decisions. Any QB. Favre did not have this problem today.
If the rest of the team played with the same type of intensity, they'd be unstoppable.
It was actually nearly 40 yards downfield (a 37-yard gain). That combined with Favre's block of Patrick Willis 45 yards downfield last week were both very impressive hustle plays. Combine them with Antoine Winfield's intensity and they've got some of the most high-intensity players in the league.
Yup taken all this into account, he actually had a bad game.
It would be difficult for Jared Allen to win after Chuck Norris punched a hole in his ribcage and simultaneously removed his heart and spinal cord. Just sayin.Nice mullet, though.
Lang did not start. He came in when Colledge was injurred.And Colledge had already given up a sack and a half or so.
Id say at least one as well.2 of the first 3 were on him...though, one was not Allen. LB I think when Rodgers got outside to his left and ran right into him.There was at least 1 or two more I thought he really held on too long including the safety.
I'm not sure who would win this one, but I know I'd take Joe Thomas to kick Jared's butt. Just watch Vikings vs Cleveland this year. Jared did not get a sack....don't believe he got a qb pressure. Big Joe Thomas dominated him.
Jared Allen's dad could whip Joe Thomas' dad, I bet.
SO this is what the Browns fans are holding onto? oof.
Me too. I'm up by around 10, with Adrian Peterson playing last night and my opponent had Allen. I wasn't worried until quarter 4...then the bottom fell out.Most unbelievable loss I've ever had. Oh well, move on.
Yes, because Joe Thomas is really good. Converted guard Daryn Colledge and rookie TJ Lang are not good. What's your point? Allen played a whale of game.
Allen had actually dropped in to pass coverage on the play, so he was already ~15 yards downfield.I, on the other hand, still hate Jared "Built Tough Pickup Trucks" Allen. I will refer to him exclusively as BTPT from now on.It was actually nearly 40 yards downfield (a 37-yard gain). That combined with Favre's block of Patrick Willis 45 yards downfield last week were both very impressive hustle plays. Combine them with Antoine Winfield's intensity and they've got some of the most high-intensity players in the league.
Well, you're right, but that midget gives every giant T he faces problems!"Did anyone notice the sheer mass of Allen's head last night when he had his helmet off? Almost bobble head proportions. I'm not saying, I'm just saying."It's the NFL, the guys that aren't using something don't tend to stick around for long...
Daryn Colledge started at left tackle, moving from guard to replace clifton. rookie TJ Lang took over for colledge when he went down with an injury. lang didnt start. barbre lang and colledge are going to make every DE they face look good week in and week out
Not sure it makes sense to bump this thread. Deserves a new thread, imo.
Gruden and Banya are tools from the same shed.
