I disagree entirely - and - the games against the two of them supports my contention. Tampa's D completely snuffed out our offense. Completely. Whereas - we both moved the ball, scored points and won against NOLA. That was then - for both games - and we'll see what next week brings. I'm (obviously) going to hope we execute better on offense - as I dont expect they'll change their scheme too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uffdaswede Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Any crab clambering to the top declaring ANYTHING other than WINNING IS OUR DESTINY will be pulled back down into the bucket without mercy! Pretty much all the crabs get pulled down, though. It’s why crab buckets don’t need a cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Tampa has started off slow a lot this season. With the cold of Lambeau I expect the same. Key for our boys will be to not allow them back into the game in the second half, where the Bucs have been very potent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was nothing awesome about how TPA played - but - their defense did make plays. Their defense (both) kept them in the game and won it for them. Its their defense I didnt want to play. Rankings aside, I would have preferred playing NOLAs D. Understood. However, we just beat the crap out of the best defense in the NFL. We can be a touch nervous because of how we played them 2 months ago but the D we just trampled was ranked higher than the one we are going to play. Quit being nervous Nellie's and have some faith in our offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be up to us to dominate them - to reverse the previous outing - where they closed us down. Short form: they have the personnel and scheme on D to make life difficult for us.

Sasquatch Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 What you saw tonight on turf is not exactly what you’ll see at Lambeau. Just saying. RELAX! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would much preferred to play NOLA - ESPECIALLY - with Bree's and his 10yard passing arm! Oh well. Didnt come to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is with all the nervous Nellie's tonight? Packers just beat the best defense in the NFL last week handily. TB would have scored 13 points without the 3 turnovers on NO side of the field. Packers play like last week ... super bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 How in the **** did we open as 4 point favorites? It's Pettine versus Brady. More likely we lose by 40 than win by 4. Oddsmakers don't know anything. I'm upset about this. At least if oddsmakers had it right I could hang my hat on the fact that we lost to the clearly better team with the clearly better defense. I just don't know how this is going to work because the MVP curse and the Home Town curse are going up against each other, so what does this guarantee the Bills/Chiefs win the Super Bowl?

As our offense has the personnel and scheme on offense to make life difficult for them. Stop the run, make Brady pass in the cold, snow and wind. His age and his blood has thinned from living in Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
