The Green Bay Packers will win Super Bowl 49

[meader99]

Rodgers wasn't slightly off, he had a above average game against your claimed "real D".

His completion pct was below his season average... So you're saying the Pats d is not real? Lets be clear here.

We are still on Rodgers. I never said anything about his completion pct. You are being silly.

[meader99]

So the Pats d isn't real..... Whats a real d? Do the Dolphins have a real d? If the Packers win in Buffalo, do they have a real d? How bout Detroit? Is Detoit a real d, or Seattle the only team that has a real d?

I'm eager to answer your question, but as a sign of good faith, just admit you are dead wrong about Rodgers being anything less then what we expect from him. Especially in the light of you claiming NE as a "real D", you should be arguing that it was his game of the year so far. You already admitted that Adams wasn't the best target, but that's was the game plan. How about Adams dropping an easy wide open TD, how does that factor into your stats? Just give up this ghost, Rodgers was lights out against NE, if he ever was.

No, he wasn't lights out. He was lights out against the Falcons in the 2010 playoffs. He was lights out in a Sunday night game against the Texans and he was lights out for a half against the Bears this year. Against the Pats, his completion percentage was lower than his season average, hence he was slightly off. I never said Adams wasn't the best target, I said he dropped a TD pass. Adams is a fine receiver and will continue to get better. There isn't a ghost here, perhaps you should man up to your post....The Packers lose if Rodgers is "slightly" off OR the play a real d..... Apparently that isn't altogether true.

If you want to get things twisted, truth will be hard for you to find.

Tell ya what, go through this season's games and tell me which ones he was "slightly off".

To me, this was one of his best games of the year. I can't figure out what your standard must be.

Is it because the Pats have a real d?

[slacker00]

You tell me, you're the one making the claim.

[slacker00]

I'll tell ya what, when I made the "slightly off" remark, I was thinking about the Saints game, primarily.

[meader99]

I'll tell ya what, when I made the "slightly off" remark, I was thinking about the Lions game and Saints game.

He was pretty good against the Saints until he tweaked the hammy....Then he was off....Against NE, it was only "slightly."

[meader99]

You tell me, you're the one making the claim.

Actually, I didn't make the claim, I asked you If they were. You have avoided answering and we both know why.

You are making claims about NE being a "real D" and Rodgers "slightly off". Prove it.

You avoided my questions in #146.

I told you I'd move on to the point about defense after we finish this Rodgers discussion.

Rodgers chokes again in tough enviroment

fumbles ball into own endzone and blows the game

the guy is mentally soft like I said

[BriGuy]

The Packers at home compared to on the road are night and day. And right now it sure don't look like the road to Arizona is going through Lambeau so I can't say I like their chances.

Before today they were the hottest team in the league. By an amazing coincidence, they played 4 of their last 5 at home (with the road game being one they almost lost against the sad sack Vikings). It is easy to be on a hot streak under those circumstances, not so much when you're back to playing a couple road games.

payton the guy won a superbowl already. he is hardly mentally soft. he won 4 games on the road in the playoffs in doing that as well including a place seattle couldnt win at.

this game was clearly a let down spot for gb.

yep. Packers just lost that #1 seed.

[meader99]

yep. Packers just lost that #1 seed.

The real question is who did they lose it to?

[Big Bear]

Not quite sure to be honest.


Lets say hypothetically the Packers, Cowboys, and Seahawks all finish with a 12-4 record..


who wins the tiebreaker for the #1 seed?

I would guess Seattle due to conference record, which Seattle and Green Bay both hold over Dallas. However, I think if Detroit were to win out, Detroit and Seattle would have identical conference records.

I think i'm right about this, but.....If Pack, Cowboys and Seattle all win their 2 remaining games, Cowboys would be the #1 seed because they beat Seattle. Seattle would be #2 seed because they beat GB, and GB would be the #3 seed.

Head to head only comes into play if you have head to head victories over all involved teams. Since Dallas and GB haven't played, you cannot use head to head to determine who wins the 3-way tie breaker. Seattle would get the #1 seed based on best conference record.

Once Seattle is #1, you reset and restart the criteria looking at GB and Dallas. But again, we have no head-to-head so it comes to conference record, and GB gets #2.

The irony is in a 3-way tie, Dallas is #3. But in a 2-way tie between Dallas and Seattle, Dallas wins.

So seattle gets #1 with a 3 way tie for sure?

IMO aint no way Lions can beat Green Bay @ Green Bay

Packers needed to lose a game before the playoffs. This will allow them to refocus and get back on track.

You know "chokes again" is an interesting term--when did he choke ever?

[Big Bear]

Packers needed to lose a game yeah bc now they have to go across country to Seattle for the NFC championship

Im all for the angle that you mentioned, but not when you basically lose home field advantage. Big difference in GB playing at home vs in Seattle. I've now seen Rodgers and the Pack play their twice, and both times they struggled.

As a GB homer & seahawks season ticket holder I hope they get a 2nd chance-opening day was brutal for Packer fans
