Now not so much.
Baloney. All three of those teams suck.

I can't count all the times that Favre would go down and the prognosis would look bleak for the next game and yet there he'd be starting again. Never thought Rogers would prove to be as tough when the time came for him to play through the pain. Guess we'll see come Sunday how much he is responsible in what separates the Packers from the also rans.

Clay Matthews returning to practice this week & Rodgers is or moved to "week to week".

"The Packers are in a “week-to-week mindset” with QB Aaron Rodgers’ injury, according to Head Coach Mike McCarthy in a Tuesday afternoon press conference.
McCarthy said the doctors felt much better about the situation on Tuesday, after gathering more information on the injury."

I think they will stick with Seneca, and not bring Flynn back. Flynn has been having elbow/arm soreness, I don't think he is a good idea. Raiders, Jets and Bills have released him just this season.

Hope Rodgers can play against the Lions, but main thing is to let it heal correctly. No doubt Packers would have won the game, only way Bears win is no Aaron.

Heading to Charleston, cruise ends is Ft. L. Saturday, been a great trip. Watching the games on a monster screen on the
top deck is awesome, couldn't believe the Jets/Saints game! A little off topic, sorry H!

Mike McCarthy is not going to totally re-do his offense in the middle of the season to suit the 3-4 weeks Tebow would play. It's one thing if you're 1-4 Denver and you've got nothing to lose, but when you're 5-3 and tied for the division lead it's off the charts idiotic.

Game was a mess, more injuries and no backup to the backup if that makes sense. If Tolzien went down today, rumors were flying Jordy or Kuhn, are you kidding me? Randall Cobb played QB but he is out, too. I read somewhere the injury bug hit the Packers harder than any other team this year. Big deal, you still have to play the games.

McCarthy already said that Tolzien will start against the Giants, and before he even knows if Seneca can play? Tolzien threw 2 picks but looked more confident in the huddle then Wallace, maybe running the practice squad has helped him?

Hi PackCruiser!!!


Scott Tolzien will start against the New York Giants,” McCarthy said with an emotionally charged voice. “I’m the head coach. That’s the direction I’m going.”


you kind of get the feeling that he wanted this all the time just like they were always going to keep Missing Crosby as FG kicker. Uh, I mean Mason-jar-head Crosby.

It didn't even look like Seneca got hurt. Did it? at least not that bad. Funny how there's been no report about the 'severity' of his groin pull.

and what's with all the secrecy? they have some black ice fishing shanty on the sidelines where they apparently examined Wallace? and at first they wouldn't say who the emergency QB was? what's the secret? what's the deal?

3rd and 1 (twice) and let's have the QB throw it. Great playcalling.

poor defense
no pass rush
bad play calling
missed field goals
poor tackling
injuries

lather, rinse, repeat.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Packers football, catch some Z's.

Hi, yourself! Always enjoy your take on things, I really do, keeps my overly optimistic, Pollyanna self in check for sure!

They have to lose two games in a row for him to realize they were doing well against less than stellar teams???
