Plussess and Minuses Arizona Game

Really happy with the kids in the secondary

Lang did a great job in replace of Bulaga

Cobb and Jones. Outstanding

Running game appeared

Bye week comes at a great time for us


Negatives:

Injuries...again

Play calling. Can we get a third and 1 call that works?

Crosby missing again

All in all we are 6-3. Lot's of guys in sick bay.

Studs Aaron Rodgers 4TD day.

Randall Cobb 2TDs

Tom Crabtree getting the Key TD to make it a 2 score game.

Erik Walden getting that tipped ball for an INT.


Duds Mason Crosby missed a 44 yarder. Hes crap.

Defence looked very meh. This D allows any crap QB to have a good day.

Offense at times looked Bad.

I guess there's a merge coming.

I am going to throw James Jones in to the Studs category. He made some great catches, including a key 1st down and a mind-boggling "How did he do that?!" TD catch.

Although, I have to admit the Tom Crabtree TD was the cleanest of the game, I went the most berserk after the Jones TD because THAT was the one that got us some real separation and we would breath. The Tom Crabtree TD got a wicked fist pump though.

Totally agree with most of your comments, although wasn`t too impressed with the running game apart from Aaron.
As far as Mason Crosby ??? I was defending him the other week but the guy sucks !!! What are they doing in training with him ?

Driver with a big drop.

Finley no showed.

Jordy killed me for starting him in fantasy.

The injuries are just piling up. Still winning. Bye week is well timed.

The Defense. I agree with the previous poster. Why does the Pack D make mediocre QBs look good?

Maube not on the merge.

These injuries are really starting to become a problem. It's fortunate that the last few weeks we've played some pretty bad teams and now we happen to have a bye.

I don't like this. We not only have a lot of injuries but we have injuries to key players on both sides.

yeah, its as bad as 2010....oh wait.

Not necessarily a stud in this game but someone who deserves a lot of credit and is not getting much is Brad Jones. He learned a new position and is playing pretty well from what I can see.

Why was My thread moved WTF

No I made mine first. When this was posted I dident see his. So your point is moot,.

Jesus ******* christ, shut up. It's not 2010 anymore

And in 2010 we didn't have injuries to this many big time players.

Take it you mean Barnett not Bennet, but I agree with Southpaw, Jennings, Nelson, Benson, Bishop, Woodson are all bigger, and who knows about Bulaga, Matthews, Perry, and Shields. Much bigger injuries this year, I only really felt we missed Finley and Grant that year. We have way more KEY players out this year.

Seriously? This has what it's gotten to? Who made their thread first? Who cares, you post and you get your opinion heard. Everyone should be thrilled to not have repeat threads.

Truth be told, It was my thread originally, but I created a trend, and now all the posters are fighting over it!!!! LOL

Studs:

James Jones - he keeps getting open and catches the ball. You have to hand it to the guy, he is definitely patient.

Rodgers - the heads up fumble recovery was a key turning point. Pin point accurate most of the time.

Casey Hayward - we are seeing a future probowl corner blossoming. This kid is the real deal.

Clay Matthews - before going out with an injury he was blasting through the line, wreaking havoc.

Evan Dietrich Smith - came in and did a great job in spot duty.

Eric Walden - he continues to play a vital role on the defensive side of the ball.

Cobb - a star is born. This kid has got some serious wheels and hands.


Duds:

Ryan Pickett - with Raji being doubled, he couldnt shed or push one guy to get pressure. Needs to be used only on 1st down, or in running situations, as he has little pash rushing value.

Mason Crosby - at what point do you start to wonder if this is more than just a short term problem. Longwell needs to come out of retirement.

Referees - the helmet to helmet on Cobb was obvious.

Tramon Williams - learn how to cover and tackle.


All in all, it is time to lick wounds and heal. You have to admire how the reserves have stepped up, now get healthy and defensively start looking like a playoff team. With this D in its current state, it could be a repeat of last year in the playoffs. I expect the defense to improve in 2 weeks time. If they do not, it'll be another year of one and done.

Overreact much?

What makes you think Badgers losing makes me happy.

I sware your trying to paint me as a Anti Badger fan which Im not. I find that very dishonest.
