2013 NFC North/NFL Thread

[ChicosBailBonds]

I think it's official after the last 2 weeks. This team is done this year. Unless Rodgers can coach defense or play safety, his return isn't going to make much difference.

I've watched GB since the crap teams of the 70's and this is the WORST defensive team I have seen. Weak. Soft. Extremely poorly coached. Jennings is probably the worst starting safety in the league. Pickett is through - getting killed by the center. No need to double team.

Can we keep the Lions under 700 yards? The big question for the 2nd half. Can our offense stay within 500 yards of Detroit's offense? Has any team ever been outgained by 500 yards in a single game. They only outgained us by 300 in ONE HALF.

My Cowboys gave up 600+ to these guys a few weeks ago only to give up 600+ two weeks later to the Saints.   I've never seen a worse defense than the Cowboys.

I'm thankful for the quality TEAM Teddy boy has put together.

[DegenerateDish]

That was a whipping.

[brandx]

If Stafford wasn't a turnover machine, this probably would have be over a 50 point loss.

Worst I have ever seen them play Awful on offense, awful on defense, awful on special teams.

This falls on the coaches. Capers is outclassed in every game. He doesn't have a solid plan for the start of the game and is unwilling or unable to make adjustments

[DegenerateDish]

I can't recall the last time I saw a Packer team so completely incompetent. And I mean that as a compliment.

[77ncaachamps]

 Missed the game but what happened to Boykins?

Was it Flynn related (read: Flynn couldn't throw)?

[hairy worthen]

I am speechless. If changes aren't made the organization has its heads up their arses.

You nailed it. 

Pathetic.

Flynn was bad...the OL was bad.  A terrible combination.

Really there was not a single redeeming quality to that game. 

[tower912]

Shouldn't have called the Lion D-line scumbags.   They seemed to take it personally.   AR back there making quick decisions and getting the ball out on time makes a helluva difference.    Detroit still tried to give away the game on offense and with special teams.   Akers getting iced?   How old is he?   Knocking two kickoffs out of bounds?  (OK, he IS a rookie).   Two stupid int's and another fumble by Bush.   Ye, gods, Chicago, steal this division.

This game had absolutely nothing to do with Sitton's comments.

Disagree.  Packers lost.

[tower912]

Yesterday's game is the first time all year that the D-line has looked focused on every snap.  Perhaps it is a coincidence and they simply have finally found themselves.   I strongly suspect they will look scattered and erratic next week.

Pretty easy to look like world beaters when the packers OL is destroyed by injuries.

And one of the replacements is a guy named Marshall Newhouse.

[tower912]

No argument.   The GB OL was beat up and allowed Flynn to get beat up.   

[Hards Alumni]

And one of the replacements is a guy named Marshall Newhouse.

I have no idea how he holds a contract in the NFL.  He isn't even serviceable.  Another great question is will Sherrod ever see the field?  I'm guessing he is our second coming of Justin Harrel.

I realize there's a lot going on outside football, but on the field, Winston is the best college QB prospect I think I've ever seen.

Not for me, not against the ACC.  Then again I grew up watching some pretty crazy college qb's out here like Troy Aikman, Warren Moon, Andrew Luck, John Elway, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Bledsoe, Mark Brunell, Chandler, Plummer, Palmer, (I was too young for Fouts, Plunkett, etc) etc...I've been lucky to see some amazing Pac 12 QBs over the years.

We'll see how good Winston is, assuming he isn't wearing an orange jumpsuit during Sundays.

And isn't baseball his best sport?

[tower912]

Best news today is that there is no way the Lions can tick me off.

[DegenerateDish]

So Rodgers done for year?

[brandx]

So Rodgers done for year?

Along with the Packers.

[ChicosBailBonds]

So Rodgers done for year?

Are they shutting him down, or only shutting him down if they have another loss?

[🏀]

Are they shutting him down, or only shutting him down if they have another loss?

Shutting him down if they are out of playoff contention, which is pretty apparent now.
