Packers Lose Again...
A game that could have been won, after the few too-many mistakes problems again, turns into a 27-31 loss to the Patriots. The dropped INT's by Charles Woodson and later by Sam Shields, the always prevalent Sack-Fumble, by QB Matt Flynn, and of course, the Pick-Six throw by Matt Flynn that combined with 4 missed tackles resulted in the 6 points. Throw in Charlie Peprah with the now soon to be infamous "I'm going to strip the ball from this big ol' lineman who has 8 inches more reach than I do" who stiff-armed Peprah and then rumbled for another 35 yards in his 71 yard kick-off return right before halftime. Even with all that, the loss comes down to the 2 plays that Flynn handed the ball to the FB John Kuhn, who actually lined up in a blocking FB role with RB Brandon Jackson behind him, got nothing, got less than nothing the 2nd time around, and then a lame pass attempt on 3rd down and the Pack rightfully kicked a super-short FG for a 6 point lead on 4th down. Brilliant strategy through-out the game, and then same old tired strategy of getting a player a TD who missed it on the plays before... Packers lose. A Game They Could Have WON!!! Packers lose. Now some thanks to the Detroit Lions, who beat the TB Buccaneers in OT, the Philadelphia Eagles who ran rough-shod over the NY Giants, with those 2 wins yesterday, all the Packers have to do is in the last 2 games of the season at Lambeau Field is beat those NY Giants, and then duh Bears and the Packers are guaranteed a wild-card spot in the NFC Playoffs. Destiny is in their own hands. The chance at winning the NFC North still rests in the hands of the MN Vikings who get to play duh Bears on an outdoor college field tonight, Vikes win, Packers have a chance at the crown, duh Bears win and the Packers are required to win-out to make the playoffs.

____________________________________________ Well all and all I thought the game last night was exciting to watch. Yes there were several plays and decisions i felt could have been better but at least we did not get blown out the DA Bears. If we would have played like that against Detroit i know we would have won SO, why is that we didn't? It of course is MM and his game planning. Flynn held his own admirably and where did that run game come from... I still very strongly that we will never be a Super Bowl caliber team with MM but last night was not embarrassing for us. Go Pack!!!! nwpackerfan ____________________________________________ That was a great game!!! This kid has what it takes to keep us all looking forward to the next game/ season... J. C. ____________________________________________ Anyone up for TACKLING practice.... Shoddy or what? **Happy Holidays** from Bonnie Scotland to y'all Go Pack !! Bobby Hey Bobby, Happy Holidays and Season's Greetings to you from the Green N Gold section of the USA. Merry Christmas. BK ____________________________________________ OH GEESUS, Matt Flynn and rest of surviving/not injured men in Green & Gold gave me 10 fingers minus 10 nails after tonight. We SO owned & outplayed Tom Terrific in 'his house' all game ! Unfortunately the final play/score. Blah Blah Blah! Lil Matt did an amazing 'rookie' job. Made me go back (memory lane) of 4's entrance to the Packers tho. (He just looked so calm the entire game, unlike me in my house) Continue on Pack Fans, we have 2 more games! GO PACK GO ! Lemondrop ____________________________________________ Meterman (viking fan) comes to the door today, asks me what I think of the Packer coaching. Told him several years of inconsitent special teams play, streaks of kooky play calling and finding new and interesting (at least to nonfans) ways to lose close games. He agreed and is glad Childress is gone. Here is the problem. The number of truly good NFL coaches you can count on one hand. We fire this guy and who do we end up with? If we lose to the giants by 3 well........ Scott in Souptown ____________________________________________ 3 dropped interceptions and no tackling by special teams on that hideous run back.... With that said........I love the Packers!!!!!!!! Flynn looked alot better this week and I'm sure this game surprised everyone. GO PACK!!!!!!!! vikingcrusher ____________________________________________ BK,,,,I should have listened,,,G*d***it,,I bow to your NFC north wisdom. A BK/BS syndicate to replace Goodell is called for. Iloved watching Brady getting leveled last night! A side from a couple of possible pic 6's and Matt Flynn's inexperience at the end of the game, the Pack won at NE HeyJT HeyJT, ummmmm, I wasn't that much help, seeing that I posted and answered your question about 2 minutes before the morning games started...
