Considering the caliber of opposition, the Green Bay Packers’ special teams haven’t had a first quarter in years like the one they had Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lambeau Field.

It was GR8 to see stellar special teams play from the Pack.
The Eagles return game had me concerned but the Pack held them in check.
Nice to see a punt returned for 6. We don't get to see that out of the Pack very often.
If only we could upgrade our kickoff return game.

[grin1]

Let's see if there isn't an improvement as the return team gets more chances.

I had to pick the damn Detroit game to be the one game I got to go to.

lol

Sure hope I get to go to Lambeau at some point.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Shouldn't be a reason for Cobb to go back to receive punts anymore.

Our returns and coverage were OK, punts and FGs left something to be desired.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

LOL yeah ST was REAL great. That's a laugher.

Nice to see Hyde take one to the house, though. But even before the TWO missed extra points and the blocked punt, I was bitching about starting field position.

Mainly the fact that we were returning KOs to the 10, and they were returning them to the 30.

We haven't had much for kick returns this year though. I always hope they just take the touchback.

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (30-Jul) : Zero, regarding Ewers, you are correct.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Sadly, this might be our life for awhile. I could put it on another host, but seems it was slower, although more stable

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site sure seems to be down more than up

dfosterf (29-Jul) : 50 cent hookers? I'm moving to Green Bay. I thought it was just real estate that was more affordable there. 😂
