Post Game Thread: Amazingly, GB defeats San Francisco

33-30

Mark called this last second Crosby FG in shout before he had to hit the sack.

I think I laughed.

It was a pitiful effort in many ways, but we got the W!

Great finish though!

Nail-biter down to the last second. Rodgers doing it again !! Ofcourse it would have been much better if we creamed them as anticipated, but oh well - we'll take it !!

the packers defense is gawd-awful. to let a team run by a backup qb with a career passer rating of 72.4 gash you for 245 yards and two tds with a qb rating of 115.3??? seriously? how bad are we? and raheem mostert - anybody ever heard of him? he's been in the league since 2015, been on five different teams. he had a season total of 11 yards coming into this game. but our defense couldn't stop the guy. 87 yards on 12 carries (7.3 yards per rushing attempt). and matt breida - another household name. 61 yards and a td on 14 carries. this is simply pathetic. i admit it - i was totally wrong about pettine. he has not improved this defense one iota. if anything, we are worse than ever. when our offense scores 30 points, we should not have to resort to a last second field goal to pull off a win.

One difference between a Capers D and a Pettine D is that the Pettine D has made a few critical stops when they needed to.

Didn't see the 4th qtr, figured Rodgers would rally them for a late win because MP adjusted his D mid 3rd and took away the long ball. Green Bay will have to come out of the bye and stay healthy the rest of the way, with a tougher schedule the next 6 weeks they can ill afford a rash of injuries and expect to emerge with a winning record.

If this team can ever manage to play more then 2 quarters worth of football a game they'll be fine. A win is a win but it doesn't really instill confidence. That said they'll get their chance to either prove they belong or confirm a lot of opinions in two weeks.

Got a lot to clean up during the bye week and hopefully Rodgers heals up enough to practice.

Well, I get very emotional during a game. Shout/thread....no matter.

Now that I've calmed down a bit, there were some good things.

Three of the offensive players had a 100 yd+ game. Adams, Graham, and VS. Apparently, this was only the second time it happened; the first being in 1980. ((RB Eddie Lee Ivery, TE Paul Coffman and WR Aundra Thompson).

EQ was also very adept at the right time.

Rodgers was Rodgers. He's amazing.

I'm getting rather tired of him looking like Eeyore. Go buck up your team, man!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clark was very good, as always. He's also (I think?) our youngest guy, so that could mean he grows and is very good for the Pack's future.

Perry batted down 3 balls.

King's interception was timely. I'm glad TPTB didn't look at it too closely.

Clay didn't get flagged for the ONE play I saw him make. That was refreshing. Admittedly, I might have been in the kitchen refreshing my drink if he did anything else of substance.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Crosby did what Crosby does. Kinda made me all teary when he returned to his usual self.

Not going to go into all the bad stuff right now.

Our next stretch looks formidable.

He may have adjusted to the deep ball but they still couldn’t stop the run. I don’t think SF did anything special, our front just didn’t get off blocks. This was like the Pitt preseason game for 3.5 quarters. What a mess. Gurley might set the single game record against us in two weeks.

They found the backside lane vs an over-aggressive defense, it's the Achilles heel of MP scheme and you had a play caller that used that against him. If they had 1 more really good WR on that team we lose by 2 scores.
