Open Thread: Green Bay at Seattle

Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks
Sunday, October 12th, 2008
Noon CST, FOX
This is an open thread for the game.
Wow, RB Brandon Jackson is out. He's sick, so it's sudden and shouldn't last longer than a week, but the Packers didn't need any more players out. With the exception of Giacomini and Brohm, every other player listed as inactive is out with an injury.
The biggest news is QB Matt Hasselbeck is out. With him gone their offense should be pretty one dimensional.
Inactives from the Insiders Blog:
Packers players on the inactive list for today's game:
S Atari Bigby
CB Al Harris
RB Brandon Jackson
DE Jason Hunter
T Breno Giacomini
WR James Jones
DE Michael Montgomery
QB Brian Brohm (No. 3 QB)
The Seahawks' inactive list includes:
K Brandon Coutu
QB Matt Hasselbeck
G Mansfield Wrotto
DT Red Bryant
WR Jordan Kent
WR Deion Branch
TE Jeb Putzier
DE Baraka Atkins

Working
This is the first regular season game I’ve missed watching live since 2005, but I’m under a severe deadline crunch and at work all day. If anyone else is stuck at home or work “watching” the game on NFL Gamecast, I’m with you today.
Wow no Atari Bigby? No Al Harris? No Hasselbeck? No James Jones? No Brandon Jackson?
Cripple Bowl anyone?
Signature? SIGNATURE?! Don't talk about SIGNATURE! I just hope I can write a sentence!

Best of luck to you Pack fans.

Well good defensive stand to start the game..
now lets get the offense going..
Greg Jennings.. Future All Pro
Holy crap, Brian Russell just made a tackle for a loss.
Peterson did a nice job there, Packers stall.
Signature? SIGNATURE?! Don't talk about SIGNATURE! I just hope I can write a sentence!
Oi!
Lamenting Seattle’s struggles??? Time for Packers talk.
I’m not watching, but what the hell, why was a running play for a loss called on 3rd and 5?
I like Will Blackmon
he returns punts for the Packers.

Grant for no gain
It’s amazing how they can’t get any push when Grant needs short yardage. They’ve almost got no choice but to sneak it.
Oh my we have a pass rush apparently. Need this 3rd down stop.

That was a playcall that said "Kick the FG" to me.
3-0 Pack.

I would have gone for it there
or called a pass play that actually had a chance for a first down

Turnover, 4th down conversion
Just an awful offensive/defensive series. Who will score the TD for Seattle? I’m betting Duckett.
3rd and 2

This is sad
We are the better team and we need to asset that right now. Big drive needed.

This is the team they are
The TD was not great. They can’t stop the run when they need to. But any NFL team can score on a short field after a big fumble recovery. Rodgers has to play better and not let that happen.
Blackmon is awesome

From a Seahawks fan, good game guys.
This is season over for us. I’ve been optimistic for a turn around up to this point, but this was a must win game.
Duly noted, please don't let Chicago win the North.
Signature? SIGNATURE?! Don't talk about SIGNATURE! I just hope I can write a sentence!
Andy Reid sure didn't help that cause
The Bears should be 2-4 right now if not for some very bad game management. Right now, Andy Reid is blowing out Herman Edwards for the title of ‘worst game manager in the league’.
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Ehh
The stats don’t look too good for the run defense. Seattle just didn’t run very often. Duckett was able to convert on 4th down. And they should be able to account for Frye on his long scramble.
Still, game over. Big win. Last week it didn’t look like a win was possible, but losing Hasselbeck really killed them.
