Wow what a great game.

McCarthy coached a solid team tonight. Newhouse stepped up big. Run blocking was good. A-Rod was sharp as always.

On D, we made adjustments and played to our strengths. Clay with another one of those disruptive nights that doesn't show up in the stat sheets. I don't care if he doesn't get another sack the entire year if he can continue to wreak havoc like he has so far this year. Solid game by our LBers all around.

Crosby is earning that big contract we gave him last offseason.

I'm proud of this team and how they played tonight. Solid win.

Incredible how the defense just suddenly showed up and dominated. Matt Ryan was held under 200 yards passing and threw two interceptions.

He said something to the effect of the scripted plays for Carolina (I think first 15) were tremendous, but after that the Packers were D was able to adjust.

Tom Silverstein, in his game-blog, pointed out that from the way the Falcons were exploiting the Packers that they had scripted their plays off of heavy film of the Capers tendencies early in the game.

Great job by the D rounding up into shape after the first two TD drives. Evad04's friends were spot on when they said outside of no-huddle, Atlanta isn't exactly a powerhouse offense.

That was pretty ugly, error prone football for half the game. The other half was a performance by the team that won the Super Bowl.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

That's exactly what I said after the game. "I think it's Mike McCarthy who deserves the game ball."

I think the announcers had it right when they said Mike McCarthy called a superb game. It was looking shaky, then BOOM, the offense seemed like the well oiled machine we've been spoiled with. I'm wrong for this, although I was hoping the Packers would pass some slants for a TD at the end of the game rather than the FG. I wanted the dagger via TD. 🙂

I like how he decided to put it in 🇦🇷's hands and called 20 or so passes to 2 runs from the start of the 3rd quarter until the start of the final drive when he was running clock. Put it in the league MVP's hands and let him win it for you.

I think McCarthy got too much blame last year, and I'll be the first to say giving him the game ball is really giving him too much credit. Granted he has been coming up money lately managing the team overall, but Rodgers has a great deal of freedom in this offense and was superb again tonight; he is so vital a cog to this team. Frankly, if any coaches deserve the game ball tonight, they are Dom Capers (for his adjustments) and James Campen (seriously, the Newhouse and Sherrod who played tonight were vastly superrior to the players who were out there against second and third stringers in the pre-season).

I see what you are trying to say though, jdog2: Desmond Bishop can see into the future. For the past four weeks, he has simple been (subtly) mocking the Falcons by using their dance.

What happened to RP's thread?
