In spite of the uncommon issues, we keep winning. Less flash and more grit. Defense and special teams (aside from roflcrosby) are actually performing to acceptable levels and keeping us in games. Imagine not being spotted two touchdowns last Sunday. Or if Janis doesn't make all the tackles on special teams right after the returner catches the ball.

It's a very different look for GB and it's better for the playoffs. Still, the fact that Rodgers and the WR corps can't keep it together for longer than a drive at a time is absolutely mortifying and likely won't cut it against AZ let alone in the postseason


I expect that as soon as we come up against a team that runs the ball well in the playoffs, we'll be looking at another 250+ yards on the ground.

I.e. Carolina, Arizona, Seahawks, Vikings.

Still astonished at how our defense has been. Measures quite well against one of the heavily praised defenses in the NFL

Just feels like a typical Capers defense. Bend don't break, and who the fuck told them they were allowed to run the ball

The way our offense has been playing + that insane Cards D is a recipe for disaster

"Bend don't break" means a little more when 3 rookies are starting on defense. Although, playing the Raiders and Cowboys is much different from facing the Cards and Vikings. Time to see what we are capable of in the postseason

It means a lot more when you're getting gashed by opposing RBs but still able to keep teams from scoring.

Game time bump! Really not looking forward to this one though.

If we rest our team rather than play 100% I'm driving up to Green Bay and shooting Mike myself.
