Tramon is playing way to overly agressive, been burnt a lot on big plays along with the fact on most of them plays the saftey also is getting burnt. Either way he's not playing to the level he was last year but that may change, who knows I guess.


He was starting to pick up before the injury. Came at a really bad time for him.

True but last game was just horrible, that first play I was scratching my head as both him and peprah bit.
If that play didn't happen, Ponder isn't considered to have a good game, just look at the stats -70 yards :)

Well you can usually point to a game and say that one big play made a huge difference in the stats. It's what made the difference week 1 in Brady having a 400 yard game and a 500 yard game. I know what you mean though. What worries me most about that is the fact that it means the Vikings saw something when the broke down the Packers' game films and knew to take a chance on that play. If they saw it, other teams will too. Can't let that happen again.


Random Stats/Facts

1965 The last time they were the last undefeated team in the NFL.

4-2 Coach Mike McCarthy's record in games preceding the bye week.

.638 McCarthy's winning percentage in all games, fourth-highest in franchise history behind Vince Lombardi (.766) and Mike Holmgren and Curly Lambeau (.667).

30.3 Average distance in yards that quarterback Aaron Rodgers' 20 touchdown passes have covered this season.

4 Games in which the defense has allowed a receiver 100 yards this season, the same number it allowed in 20 games last season.

Robinson was fined $20,000 for kicking Lang in the groin on Sunday, but he contacted Lang a few days ago to apologize, which TJ openly accepted.

http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/132711548.html - Antonio Freeman interview discussing Aaron Rodgers and how the 96 Superbowl Champion team he was on compares to the current team. Good read, and I really like that this is the second interview with a guy from that era in as many days. Ahman Green next!

Aaron Rodgers voted #3 scariest player in the NFL by ESPN fans..... lol

I meant to post this the other day, but if you haven't seen it yet, http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/packers-grading-system-leaves-little-room-for-error-132587593.html is an article detailing how the coaches grade players on their performances and what makes it different from other teams.

The playoff teams in the NFC, with seeding and projected records in this guessing game: No. 1 Green Bay (15-1), No. 3 New Orleans (13-3) and No. 6 Chicago (10-6). The Bears' playoff odds at the moment are put at 47.7%.

At the bottom of the NFC bracket is No. 2 San Francisco (14-2), No. 4 Dallas (11-5) and No. 5 Detroit (11-5).


James Jones became the newest father on the team, as his wife gave birth to a baby boy on Monday.

Matthews will not be fined for the hit on Ponder that got flagged on Monday. That's wonderful, considering he shouldn't have been flagged for it.

Everybody seems really worried about the Chargers. They're a good team, but in a very bad situation. A divisional game on a Monday night does not line you up well for an opponent coming off their bye week.

ESPN got a little wrong, they were really close those. Packers will be 16-0 not 15-1. Yea I'm a little worried about the chargers cause in my own opinion from what I've seen they will be our hardest team this year. Some people say we need to watch out for Detroit but I strongly disagree. If you watch Detroit play, they are extremely sloppy and have struggled with some bad teams. Although they did play pretty good against denver, but right now denver is worse than KC so it doesn't really mean dick. I think the bears game will be pretty close also.

As Packer fans who do we root for, chiefs or chargers? Considering its tied, do we want them all jacked up maybe to hyped and have a let down or just hope they lose so they are feeling down?

We root for a tie, so they play as long as possible on a short week.

Haha. I think I worried more about the Vikings than I have about the Chargers, at least thus far.
