I just saw that. WAS is pretty loaded.
Looks like a trade of Zimmerman (free agent after 2015) could be on deck.
one on last night
Hey big: Got a question.
Why didn’t The Pack take advantage of Sherman’s bum left-side? No throws toward him in the 4th quarter when he was obviously in pain and couldn’t use his left arm.
Just “tin-foiling” along this morning.
You know local, I have no idea. That and why the heck when they had them 3rd and forever they went to a two man rush. They had them on the run. That changed the game.
Oh well, hind sight is 20/20
And...My “tin-foil” remark was tongue in cheek. No way the NFL would set up a GB loss!
Wroggers and Gooddell have such a great bromance; what with that “double-check” move and all.
I’ll be brief.
How in the @#$%^&* can you be GIFTED with FIVE TURNOVERS - and LOSE?
Good Lord! If you need me, I’ll be in my Girl Cave for about a WEEK while I digest the STUPIDITY of The Green Bay Packers that I witnessed yesterday!
Grrrrrrrrrrrr!
When you can't turn 5 drives into TD, and take FG's , settling for 15 points instead of 35.
Hey did you hear your team being investigated by NFL I mean Hootie Belcher

Yep... Game ovah...
Better luck next year, and kudos to the Packers for coming prepared to play...
I really, really hope they go in as underdogs against the Pats, and that the Pats view them as easy pickings based solely on the stats sheets...
I think the Seattle team’s heart had something to do with it. Those guys love one another, like a band of brothers. They play for one another, not their own stats. That’s what Carroll and the coaching staff have been able to build.
Those two playoff wins Green Bay had against Seattle? All is now forgiven... :-)
I think McCarthy being an overly conservative coach who has a long history of taking the “easy” call, including kicking on 3 different 4th and short situations yesterday, was the biggest part. Most teams love each other by the end of the season, but when the coach is constantly leaving points on the field...
Sorry!
It was awful.
You do not go to the Championship game to kick field goals from the 1 yard line.
Blame either your team or the NFL gods.
They beat the 8 point spread. Some that had big bucks on the Packers are happy.
Just a side note.
Now... guess it's time to make some GOAT burgers in a couple weeks... heh..
If he was expecting a low scoring affair from the team that outscored him by 20 at the start of the season he’s even dumber. The fact of the matter is bold coaches play to win, bad coaches play to not lose/ control the margin of defeat. And it is how you start, if they go for those 4th downs in the 1st quarter and only make 1 (league average on 4th and 1 is over 60%) that’s 7 points instead of 6 and they win the game. There’s a reason both the coaches that went for it on 4th Sunday are playing in the SB in two weeks and both the coaches that didn’t are playing golf.
‘Course the Hawks defense had absolutely nothing to do with holding the turnovers to 6 points... And it’s a given that they get into the end zone if McCarthy goes for it... Plenty of assumptions here.
