Packer Notes: Bears Are Full-Go, Rodgers Is NFC Offensive Player Of The Week, and NFL Power Rankings

Jeez. And that was the early 80s when I could drink beer and appreciate at least some of teh nuance of the game. I also remember Jerry Tagge and Don Horn. And I remember where I was watching the Ice Bowl in black and white (but I was just a child).

How about “senior” or “experienced”? That’d sting a little less.

maybe there was someone in the 1920’s (cecil?)

I don’t think the Cardinals were demoralized when we took them apart in game 16 last year either.

and a completely refurbished line up, the Bears are in for a serious whoopin’

And it’s a semi-swipe at the Giants, too. Good stuff.

That’s what they call “gallows humor.” …making a joke about what you’re dreading.

I wouldn’t be making jokes about contributing to 2 of our losses this yr.

I am a superstitious type, but I will tempt fate and give you a response! :)

I think the Packers are the most dangerous team when all cylinders are clicking. When the passing attack is going, it is a thing of beauty. The defense is giving up some yards, but there is always that aspect of getting a turnover from this defense. I wish they got more (so many dropped picks ugh), but they are doing enough. :)

If this team is prepared to play, they will be top-tier. If they come out flat, they can be pushed around. The ebbs and flows of this team are so wild and so drastically different. One week they look like world-beaters, the next they look like they never practiced together.

declare anybody the best team in the NFC until the playoff field is set. But as far as the AFC goes, nothing against the Patriots, but I think I like Baltimore to come out of there.

I think this is accurate. I personally we’ve got more talent than anybody else but we also make more mistakes then anybody else. If we do make it’ll just depend on how many mistakes we make.

and that’s a big IF, since we are our own worst enemy, I’m sure there are some teams that aren’t looking forward to playing us.

Interesting thing to think about. Both of them picked in the top 10 last draft, with the Rams going 1st! I think they could for sure both use another early pick but obviously they both can’t get it. Seems like making the playoffs will probably hurt whoever ends up making it. Maybe not so much for the Rams though because I think Bradford will eventually develop into a top Qb in the league.

and he’s cheering for the playoffs. They haven’t gone in several years, and he’s just cheering for as much success as possible after the last few seasons of complete suckage.

If he had picked him back up and done it again. Vicious? Yes. What of it?

has that crown

I think Rodgers refuses to sign autographs only when its for personal gain thing by the fans. He signs alot of autographs for charities and things of that nature from what I’ve heard. Can’t blame him too much if he doesn’t do the bike thing! Can you imagine how many kids would surround him while trying to ride a bike wanting an autograph or getting in the way. That seems more like a safety thing… I don’t know any of this for sure, but it makes some sense when looked at it in that light! So the difference is a matter of priorities, not being rude.

There was a good reply to this question where you left it on another post.

Apparently he’s very gracious and signs a lot of autographs.
