Maybe I am crazy, but on the two big pass plays, weren't Knox and Hester just running straight down the field? Woodson didn't get a good bump on Knox... And Collins didn't get over to cover Hester... There was no running of an actual route from either guy... I think the Steelers might pick up on that for next week's game.

I am normally the one who says let's see how this one plays out... But I already am thinking that 8-8 would be an accomplishment... No receivers, a shit offensive line, a quarterback who doesn't know when to throw it away or when to take a sack, a defense that just lost its MLB for the season and still has a pathetic secondary, a terrible offensive coordinator and a head coach that needs to let someone else decide when to challenge plays...

Sometimes, just sometimes, Week 1 isn't all that representative of the entire season.

This, maybe. But I don't know how they beat Pittsburgh OR the Seahawks.

Pittsburgh's offensive line right now is awful. If the Bears d line plays well again and the offense doesn't load up it's pants like Kevin Gregg they could get the win here.

Pittsburgh's offensive line right now is an awful lot like last season when the won the Super Bowl. If the Bears d line plays well again and the offense doesn't load up it's pants like Kevin Gregg they could get the win here.

Reality'd

I know about as much about football as I do about basketball hockey, but in my opinion the Packers looked pretty bad, and except for the final score (I know, that is a pretty big "except") they were outplayed both offensively and defensively by the Bears.  Furthermore, the Vikings looked extremely weak against a weak team.  Don't give up on this season just yet.

They signed a guy from England? When one of those guys is available, gotta go get him.

Except that this guy always tries to get too familiar in the scrum.

He can't be from England. The dental work looks too nice.

Lovie is just at league average as far as successful challenges,
and no one is good at them since the barrier for overturning a
call is so high.

I thought his challenge on the almost touch back fumble was
a great one, even if it didn't turn out.

This. As for the 12 men on the field challenge, someone had to have noticed that Clay Mathews got off the field in time, no?

He was busting it back to the bench, from what I saw.  I think he have even jumped over the line.  But in any event, when the play was called, he was way off the field.

It's frustrating because if we had scored on two of our red zone possessions, this convo would be moot.

My final assessment of this move is that he's white.

At least he's not a runningback.

Gil, your only mistake was using "we" after a loss. That's when "they" couldn't score in the redzone, those bums.
