Thursday games have been lopsided and embarrassing at times. Will the trend continue this week?

I only saw the end of their game today, amazing how some of these Dome teams can look so good at home, and so bad on the road.(Falcons)(Saints)

Sure is killing me in the NFL picks.

Packers 38 Vikings 10.

I think when a rookie QB puts up those kind of numbers and Rodney Harrison equates him with Russell Wilson it's noteworthy...

Comparing a person who plays the most important position on the field and the impact he had in comparison to the crap they've trotted out there the last few years it's of note.

Fans should be allowed to beat the drums of victory directly after a win... even if it's an down right ugly win... hell I was rooting for the winless Lions to win one (not against the Packers) just to let their fans celebrate one that season (and still will argue that the refs stole a victory from the Lions while against the Vikings that 0-16 season). And stay the detailed stuff for the coming days.

The Packers former MVP putting up big numbers against a depleted Bears D vs. that isn't in the same strata.

not sure this one is going to have a happy ending with that defense we have, but we'll have some entertaining high scoring affairs to look forward to.

Also next week might be a very interesting game... looks like both defenses could be in possible trouble... we'll just have to wait and see how it turns out.

I've never had as low an opinion of Ponder as a lot of people seem to have. I think I'd rather see the rookie play against us. If we beat them with Ponder, they have a built in excuse. We better be ready to stop their running game. We probably will need to score big and hope for some turnovers again. I'm pretty sure Rodgers is up to that, assuming McCarthy sticks with "pass first" instead of going back to that "run to set up the pass" crap.

Bridgewater has told the press that he expects to play against the Packers thursday nite. I don't believe that he will start, but if Ponder does poorly, Bridgewater may play. His ankle injury may not be so serious, but he has shown he is that teams future and they may not want to risk playing him. Also with Peterson out, they may have quit a different game plan than the Packers have seen from the purple gang in many a year. Should be an interesting contest at Lambeau
Field thursday nite.

Anyone know what condition the field there is in ? 🤔

I hope this game isn't taken lightly - defense needs to show up, or the DLine will get trampled.

Thursday's game , IMO, will be the strangest game of the entire NFL season. Tipped Passes, fumbled fumbles, and more!
Some might call that sloppy, but it will just be strange. [duh] We'll be scratching our heads and talking about this game for a long time to come. Green Bay wins this one laughing. [roflmao]

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
