It was ugly but I don't care. That's a win against a good team on the road.

I wasn't expecting the win. Probably got too happy when we were up 17 and then too depressed at the end.

A win is a win. I'll take it.

The clock has run out but I'm not sure the game is over. I think we have to complete the process of the win after everyone leaves the lockeroom.

Just happy to get out of Philly with a win. I thought our D played pretty well given the depth issues at DL. Was more frustrated with the offenses inability to close the game out late. I know we scored 27, but we had a chance to end the game a few times and we came up empty. MM is very predictable with playcalling. Either way, 1-0 with Buffalo at home next week, a game I'd be stun if we lost.

This might be the worst I have ever seen Rodgers play. I do not expect that to continue.

Clay Matthews was easily the player of the game. He was amazing.

Tramon Williams looked great, Woodson looked great, Raji looked great and the rest of the defense played very well. It's hard to play against a guy like Vick when you don't game plan for him. Brandon Jackson did a very good job of filling in and John Kohn is awesome in short yardage situations. Greg Jennings is a stud.

Wasn't pretty... But winning on the road is winning on the road. Getting the W is all that matters. Now we have to get healthy.

Ugly win but I hope the whole team is frustrated it got that close and they take it out on a terrible Bills team next week.

I hope Neal is okay for next week. Losing Harrell hurts our depth. Looks like CJ Wilson will get playing time. Losing Grant is big too but at least he could walk on the foot while it was in the boot. Hopefully we don't need him until after the bye week.

It's a good win.

I'm not too worried, Rodgers won't play like that again.

I'd keep Grant out next week regardless. We don't need him against Buffalo. Harrell actually played well before getting hurt so hopefully his is not serious, although it looked so. Neal needs to get back.

I like this. We've seen Rodgers wearing a Brewer hat too. We should get Brad to Lambeau and get him a sideline spot.

I think he just liked using his own name in the status update.

I wonder if the Eagles are in the market for a fullback.

Aaron It Out · Post #15 » by **Aaron It Out** » Sun Sep 12, 2010 11:43 pm

I said this in the game thread but we have to remember that we had to completely change the defensive gameplan halfway through the game. Having said that our playcalling sucked **** in the fourth quarter. It's like MM was trying to lose.

Raji I thought was very good today. I can see him getting a lot more attention in coming weeks.

I loved how good Matthews and Raji looked. Those two are key.

For the season going forward, I think we might actually be better off with Jackson as the starting HB. If MM has to gameplan with his strengths in mind, I think we could actually be better offensively than we are with the him rather than the one dimensional Grant (though I could be wrong and I appreciate his hard running).

My biggest disappointment was the play of our OTs. AR wasn't great, but those two were a big part of why AR was out of rhythm basically the entire game. If you can't trust your outside guys to block on both sides, you aren't going to be very confident standing back there as a QB. Hopefully both Cliffy and Tausch both clean up their play in the coming weeks.

Oh, and how good is Clay? Missed 29 days of TC, and was everywhere. Forced fumble, two sacks, and a few other pressures. Guy is a superstar OLB.

Clay showing why he was the true defensive rookie of the year. **** Mr. Roids.

Having Quinn Johnson on the roster is pointless. Trade him to Philly if they want him and pick up a DL.
