Divisional Round Lead-Up - Rams - Saturday 3:35 - Fox

RRyder823 · Post #121 » by **RRyder823** » Thu Jan 14, 2021 6:29 am

Almost a weeks worth of lead-up and I've come to the conclusion that Adams is the most disrespected player in the league right now considering all anyone is talking about is how Ramsey is just going lock him down despite him being a walking cheat code this season.

And then there's how Rodgers and the Packers O is going to be in trouble all day with a banged up Donald on the field but apparently an injured Goff and Kupp is going to have a field day against GBs D.

I get they want to push the counter narrative cause just saying GB is going to roll this mash squad is boring but damn

Green Bay kicking - Punt and kick returns provide moments of fan terror. Both at point of the punt and especially when the opponent gets the ball. Scott needs to learn to tackle. This last one should only be a minor annoyance but, (for the old farts out here) the contact-averse Chester Marcol was a better tackler than JK Scott.
Green Bay receiving punts and kickoffs - meh. (That's with Ervin - Austin hasn't impressed me yet)
Crosby's been reliable, but how many more years does he go?

No matter how this season concludes ST is the one area that is in desperate need of a major coaching overhaul.

Of course he feels fine. It isn't 32° in LA.

And possibly after. While the trackers show that he wasn't within 6 feet for more than a few minutes, we have to hope that's enough precaution.

A huge distraction at best, and I don't even want to speak the worst into existence.

I mentioned this on Twitter but it may be more of a risk for guys missing the NFCCG. Usually if exposed you wont show symptoms for like 5 days and even then it takes a couple more days of symptoms to usually have an accurate positive test. So some guys may have it, be playing on Sat, and not test positive until like Tue. Obviously this is worst case scenario. We really need to hope for the best. Right now we just need to get to Sat without more positives.

Veldheer bringing Covid upon the team would be the most Packers thing ever.

Everyone spotted at practice today so no more positive tests today. Need to hope for same results on Fri and Sat.

The players were probably being extra focused and disciplined the last 2 weeks to not put themselves at any extra potential risk and blow this golden opportunity. So what does management do? Bring in a new guy who was playing for a different team last week. Dumb. Well, let's keep our fingers crossed now.

This team has some good energy going right now...best I have felt about the team in years.

Cool read from Bobby Tonyan

Was Lafleur asked about how careful they were around him?

The McCarthy (and Pettine/Capers) conditioned part of my brain fears basically everything you said coming to fruition on Saturday.

The other larger part knows we are a machine right now, Davante is matchup proof, they are dealing with injuries, and we'll be more comfortable in the cold weather. And Godgers is so close he can taste it.

Packers 28 Rams 24

Rams get a late TD making it seem closer than it was.

While I generally agree, I do think Ramsey is a guy that can shut down a lot of good WR. So just need to make sure that Rodgers let's other guys get involved too.

This team's too talented (on both sides of the ball) to lose this game. I'll will it into existence if I have to.

I'm not so good at english, but if you referenced a loss in the first sentence, wouldn't 'it' then refer to a loss in the second? If so, how dare you!

I agree, I think I still have some PTSD from that Seattle debacle. It's impacting my ability to be confident of a Packer win until the game is over. I do think our offense and our defense are trending up nicely, I want to say 'we got this'.

I’m gonna go:

GB 24* LAR 20

With the game going sorta similar to the CAR game—Pack builds a decent first-half lead but are mostly stymied in the second, and the Rams chip away while we fans sweat it out.

*I do realize its crazy to pick GB to win a game that we only score 24 points in.
