2021-2022 NFL Season

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

44-16 since 1992 when Favre started.

45-16

[Jockey]

I think this officiating crew can rest easy come playoff time.

The worst I have seen this year.

At least they were bad to both teams.

[DegenerateDish]

Greg Olson calling out the play calling…

I thought he was really good today.

[Herman Cain]

I’d love to hear the isolated audio from Rodgers after that touchdown.

He sure seemed amped up

44-16 since 1992 when Favre started.

Beyond belief. 

[Sir Lawrence]

I thought he was really good today.

Agree.  Romoesque.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

He sure seemed amped up

He wasn’t wrong but it doesn’t make him any less of a prick.

[ZiggysFryBoy]

He honestly can’t be any worse than Virginia.

I laughed.

[MuggsyB]

My guess is Kyler Murray is slightly under 5' 9.  We could be looking at a double generational talent. 

[Jockey]

I assume you have the same opinion of Hicks since he runs his mouth all of the time.

Hicks and Mario Edwards are both idiots that make incredibly boneheaded decisions.

As long as you judge both sides the same, I have no qualms about your opinion on Rodgers.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

He honestly can’t be any worse than Virginia.

Ha, this is excellent

[Herman Cain]

My guess is Kyler Murray is slightly under 5' 9.  We could be looking at a double generational talent. 

Muggsy- I think Kyler is closer to 5-7.

[Billy Hoyle]

For now, the Lions stand alone.

Tank for Thibodeaux!

Tank for Thibodeaux!

Not tanking.   No need.

I like what I saw of Justin Fields yesterday . Yes, it is going to take some time to adjust to life as an NFL quarterback. So there will be some ups and downs . However , when he eventually makes the necessary adjustments his future  is bright.

Lions have to be absolutely kicking themselves in the butt for turning down the opportunity to draft Justin. Goff is not the answer. I guess they will have another chance at a top college quarterback this year.

Fields needs to be saved from Matt Nagy

the roster as it was constructed has to be all about tanking.

I agree.  If I were a Bears fan, I would like what I have seen.  Still needs experience and seasoning, but I think he looks like he's going to be good.

Fields needs to be saved from Matt Nagy

Trusting the same duo of Pace and Nagy with Fields after failing completely with Trubisky was dumb from the beginning.  (Assuming Pace's successor would have drafted Fields anyway.)

[Herman Cain]

Will the Packers make some trade deadline moves this year? I would like to see some pass rush help.

The Quinn/Patricia era was so bad that it could not have been rebuilt this offseason.  I don't know if this regime is the answer, but I do know they have a huge hole to get out of.   This year is tanking without trying to.

Feels like a long time ago that we were calling TOD on the entire Green Bay Packers franchise on 9/11/21.  5-1 with the injuries they've faced is a nice spot to be in.

Yeah, I just took a look back at some of the takes from then. Pretty funny stuff.

If we're being perfectly honest, the Packers are...fine. I give them credit for bouncing back from Week 1, what looked like internal havoc, they overcame and bounced back. Every analytic/stat considers them to be good, not great.

Point differential +8  (13th in the league, 7th in the NFC)
DVOA (thru last week)   15th in the league, 9th in the NFC
Offense DVOA  10th in the league
Defense DVOA  20th in the league
Special Teams DVOA  28th in the league

The 5-1 record looks all shiny and nice (and it is, there's no reason to piss on being 5-1), they've beaten teams that the schedule has given them. They're a fine, not spectacular, team that plays in a weak division. They're the Chicago White Sox of the NFL right now.
