That drive went nowhere, and GB put the game away on their next possession. This wasn't a close game today. I suppose after a few playoff games where we let them slip away after a lead (Seattle in 2014 for example) is the root of this kind of thinking by a lot of us.

Maybe, but if this Rams game is being described as a "nail biter" by Packers fans, that's a very low bar.

spilltray Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Wow just crazy. By the Packers 2nd drive, it never got closer than a TD. The Rams offense averaged 23.3 per game this season, they only managed 18. The Rams defense allowed 18.5, the Packers hung 32 on them. They didn't blow the doors off the Rams, but at no point we're the Packers not in control. Even that one drive to close the score to within 7, took so long, that you knew time was already strongly on the Packers side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moretti19 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 How nice is it to see Barnes developing into a really good MLB. His break on the ball was amazing and would have intercepted it if he didn’t have the cast. He did get ran over for the touchdown, but he seems to be getting better each week.

Some of us were and some of us weren't. 2 missed long td passes didn't help and they didn't attempt to score from the 10 at end of the game. No need to head to the manicurist over the game.

They shoudnt have been. Lets be honest here. If this game had played out the exact opposite, and it had been GB in the other side of the score, you'd wouldn't be in here talking about how this was an extremely tight game late. You'd be in here (correctly) talking about how GB was clearly over matched, and was never a real threat to complete any kind of comeback.

Yes, and OP31 would be demanding that Pettine be fired for running a light box against Jones and Co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely .. I expect the collapse from GB in big games. I'm slowly starting to trust that this team will find a way to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyecatcher Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 This packers defense while not elite has done a very good job in the second half of the season. In this 7 game win streak they’ve given up an average of 18.4 ppg. That is better than the number 1 defense in the nfl. Not sure what people want but This is the best defense they’ve had in a long time paired with the best offense they probably ever had. Go Pack Go!!!

Trubisky Wentz/Hurts Stafford Bridgewater Tannehill Trubisky Goff Brees and Brady are smarter than all of them combined. I'm trying to save all of you from heartbreak.
