INTERCEPTION!!!!! GARYWITH A FANTASTIC PLAY AND MCDUFFIE WITH THE PICK!!

 

[AGreen2AJones]

Wowow! Gary with the hit and McDuffie with the pick!

 

[rmontro]

Only good thing about that, is it is now a 3 score game

Nothing wrong with that.

 

[Zartan]

Nice INT.

The defense just got nasty to close the door this half. JJM got abused bad today

 

[AKCheese]

Would be nice to see Det and Chi lose

 

[David Ciembronowicz]

What is hard to understand is why GB is playing so close to the vest in this game? Pass game is virtually non-existent (play calls, completions are relatively short passes). MLF and the plan is very very low key . Maybe after this last pass by Love, MLF realizes that JL does not have it today - or maybe it is not just today. The guy is off in the pass game IMO.

 

[David Ciembronowicz]

Bears are going to be a tough game for GB. They are beating Pitt and will be a challenge for the GB secondary.

 

[Pugger]

MLF playing conservative. That stuff was just like the Philly game. Not saying you throw there but Love could change the call and try and bootleg. We need some Mahommes there.

I suppose MLF wants to use click here.

The D could cap this off by scoring a TD, cause MLF is in conservative mode, I’m just greedy, I want 30pts

23 points, offense is not finishing, run game has been VG with Wilson, OL has done well for most of the game. What are the issues (there are more than one) in getting into the end zone. A win is a win, but against better competition (Defenses and Offenses) GB will not be able to win with FG's. The D has been outstanding and continues with an iterception now. Kudos to every one of them and the DC.

I would say getting Jacobs Reed and Golden back on the field might help

Yeah, it's hard to be unhappy with this game, but you'd like to see the offense be a little more formidable. The Eagles don't score a lot of points though, and they're doing pretty well. Really, the Eagles are very similar to us, stats-wise, on both offense and defense.

They did say earlier the Packers were the #1 team on third down offensively, that surprised me.

Detroit is losing by 10 to the crappy Giants.... Jameis has a 33yd TD....CATCH

30 is the new 40 for GB.

 

[DoURant]

Another INTERCEPTION, Evan Williams back 2 back weeks!!

An incredible touchdown catch and run to boot

Losers find ways to lose. I don't trust that Giants lead (which is now 3).
Bears are up 10 now.

Resting up in the hopes of getting people back for Thursday??

 

[AKCheese]

Wow now watch MLF get conservative here only up three scores with under 3 mins. Clearly an indictment of Love!!

 

[rmontro]

McCarthy being young and inexperienced, our pass rush is forcing mistakes.

 

[Old Guy]

MLF is doing what he has to do to win, and keep Love healthy because of the short week. I am completely satisfied with what they are doing

I hope you are joking. The clock here is our friend.

Yea I wonder he played a very vanilla offense because of the quick turnaround to The Lions Thursday.

 

[Pugger]

Love our defensive guys doing the Skol chant after that pick with the fans joining in the fun.

 

[DoURant]

This game is over!!! The dagger has been planted. What a 2nd half by this defense. 2 turnovers, -1 yd allowed... 2-0 in the North!

 

[milani]

I think MLF knows we play Thursday. He does not want to risk injury and he wants to get the game over.
