Game action and practice so different. Very very little contact in practice. Blockers, backs, defense all going half speed or less.

Looking at the last play again, even if Dallas would've scored I think review would've brought the play back. On the second lateral after Elliott broke away he throws the ball from behind the Green Bay 47, Prescott catches it just shy of the 46. Forward lateral, game over right there.

Good point.

Also, at the risk of repeating myself, it's very possible Jones made mistakes on his pass-protection assignments in practice, and they were still working on that. Plus, Ty was running well (and is a threat to motion out wide and be a receiver too) so why rush Jones unless you have to?

Also, let's hold judgement on the kid until he's played more than one game (and lets see him against a D that gameplans for him and has tape on him).

Maybe enjoy this win and take the night off from being a massive ****. I'm sure there will be plenty of time for it down the road when we're not coming off an awesome comeback win.

Psycho much?

Packers are 4-1 with a ton of injuries. They play minny next week on short rest. If they come away with a win next week and are at 5-1 that'd be amazing.

Any word on Jordy?

I'm assuming no news is good news. Plus he was standing there talking to TVV, looking all uninjured.

If people are going to piss and moan after this win maybe it's time to take a break and find a new hobby. Imho.

Yeah that was weird. He appeared to be OK but apparently not.

I just hope we’re not hearing about an MRI tomorrow. He winced when he came down on that failed 2 point attempt. Non contact scares the hell out of me. Please somebody tell me I’m insane for worrying about his ACL. Anything we’ve heard that I missed to assure he’s actually ok?

Wilde said the only injuries listed by the Packers' PR guy after the game was King with a concussion and Burnett with a hamstring. I think/hope Jordy's fine.

Rodgers said he was calling the plays on the final drive.

This doesn't make any sense. It was a huge win with seeding implications possibly but they still looked awful where most people agree they are awful. The defense caved when it needed to make a stop. Elliott ran over them in the second half, Ha-ha was badly out of position a lot and they Witten run around free.

The defense was bad and Rodgers bailed them out, which is pretty much the running criticism of they team. The miracle finish doesn't negate all of their flaws.

Need I remind you the game is tied at the end if they convert three extra points.

It's a feel good win but it was sloppy as hell. Winning on the road is always good but they were bad where everyone thinks they're bad.

That was fun. I honestly think Rodgers is the GOAT rings or not. I know I’m biased as a Packer fan but the dude just does stuff no one else can do.

Also thank you Dak for not sliding down at the 1 and setting up 1st and goal. Hard to blame him for scoring I get it but I was thankful he did at the time.

I think it's fair to be critical when and where criticism is due. Even in acknowledging the thrill of victory, it is simultaneously possible to remain concerned with that's ahead. The ultimate goal is to win a title, after all.

I think the issue is that being negative in the immediate aftermath of game with such a thrilling victory is a bit of a buzz kill. And also lacking in perspective about the greatness that we're witnessing from Rodgers. Moments that will go down in Packer lore. You can choose to save the warts for tomorrow.

I really...really hate Cowboy fans. All the same people talking trash all week all of a sudden acting like they have already boycotted the NFL all season long and “never watched the game.”

I think this is the year. Despite all the injuries, things seem to be falling the Pack's way. Plus, this is as driven as I've seen Aaron Rodgers. He is elevating his game to another level. Breath taking to witness. Go Pack Go!

This team is pretty damn resilient and keeps finding ways to win. Nick Perry almost gave me a **** heart attack.

Nah, I didn't need to do the whole namecalling thing so that's my bad. I just snap a little bit when people go into "yeah but we suck" mode right after an awesome game. It must be a miserable way to be a sports fan if that's where your mind defaults after a win like that.

I really, really hope we found our run game today. If we did.....oh boy.
