Lynch has one big game and suddenly the Lynch fans come out again.

Yes, I'm sure his 737 yards at a 3.6 yard average would have made a huge difference vs Brandon Jackson's 703 yards and 3.7 average.

We're in the playoffs. Starks played just as good if not better than Lynch in Lynch's biggest game of the year. Stop second-guessing everything and appreciate the great team we have.

I bet no other RB that we didn't trade for and say this. ;)

Marshawn Lynch touchdown caused an earthquake

Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch did more than just score one of the best touchdowns in the history of football Saturday against the Saints.

He also caused an earthquake.

OK, maybe earthquake is an exaggeration, but the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network recorded a small tremor near Qwest Field at exactly 4:43 p.m. Saturday, just as Lynch was reeling off his incredible 67-yard run, presumably meaning the run got the crowd jumping up and down screaming to such an extent that the earth moved.

That has happened before: In 1988, a seismograph detected the crowd reaction to LSUs winning touchdown over Auburn in a game now known as the Earthquake Game.

Maybe we can call Lynchs touchdown the Earthquake Run.

I completely agree that Starks' performance tilts things back in Ted's direction. He didn't do anything as insanely spectacular as Lynch, but he was very, very good. And he was already on the team, so he cost us nothing.

Throw in catches and Jackson is more productive than Lynch.

Lynch is also not productive outside the one big run. For the entire year, including that game against NO. So it isn't even one good game. It really is just one good run in an entire year.

Even if Starks had an average game. That run didn't tilt anything away from TT. Lynch is still a waste of meat.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Ah yes, this is the Packers Home I know and love: If you don't like a player, subtract his best play. What took everyone so long to get around to this? I was beginning to wonder if I was on the wrong web site.

The truth is that Lynch was gaining tough yards all day long to help his team build a lead. That big run was just the icing on the cake. Give credit where credit is due.

And don't forget that (I believe) Lynch didn't want to play in GB. I'm not one to say that he couldn't have changed his tune like Woodson, but I also don't think Woodson and Lynch are the same type of people.

the only rb I wanted Ted Thompson to get is the guy we are playin against Sat.

the question I would pose is why didn't Ted Thompson go after Micheal Turner?

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
