Wow, that sucked...
Rogers had a HOF day.
I'd have to look up the last time a Zimmer D gave up 40+ at home.
We missed Diggs today too. Nobody in the passing game did s hit except Thielen.
B-R-U-T-A-L
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
Our dbs first nfl game was against a Hof qb and with no preseason what can you expect.
This wasn’t a good game by us. I wouldn’t declare the end of the world yet,
because the first game of the season always has a lot of variance in
performance as teams haven’t hit their stride yet and they’re still figuring
things out, and that goes doubly so with the league not having a preseason or
normal training camp or fans in the stadium.
That said, I think we’re in for a very mediocre year. 8-8 to 9-7.
I think Zimmer will get us a defense that looks like his first year. Zimmer’s CBs here have always taken years to
get up to speed. I just can’t imagine
they’ll hit the ground running. Our DLine
is at best going to have two great players and two scrubs. If Hunter or Yannick is out we’re rolling out
3 scrubs. Our OLine is going to be
playing two scrubs right in the middle.
We don’t have a home field advantage this year, which was historically
one of the best ones in the league. I
think we’re going to have to recognize that we are now an offensive team that
is outscoring other offenses and we’re hoping our defense gets in the way
enough to win games. We’ll need to expect
a top 5 offense and hope the defense grows into a top half defense by the end
of the season.
8-7 at halftime? Someone missed the last minute... B)
packers must just prepare better. they had no pre season games either, and only one wr.

I'm hoping I get to see another era of Packer football that harkens me back to Lynn Dickey and not 30 years of HOF QB'ing.

Green Bay is the class of this division (not saying much) but after the last 3 meetings, their coaching staff makes Minnys look basic and unimaginative.@"kmillard" said: packers must just prepare better. they had no pre season games either, and only one wr.
