It looks like it was the 2nd game of 7 pass attempts, and the fewest that still got a W is 6 pass attempts. https://twitter.com/rodger_sherman/status/922189097187364864 Fun Fact: That QB that threw only 6 passes and still won the game? Drew Brees.

All I want is for the douchebag at the office to be miserable when Cutler outplays Trubisky, but he's going to be a nightmare tomorrow.

The second half was inexplicable. I was busy during it and it seemed like every single time I looked up the Packers were on defense. Not one single sustained drive.

It's literally flushing money down the toilet. I mean, I don't really give a poo poo at this point because it's not my money and the Packers probably aren't making the playoffs at this rate, but why even bother? I'd feel differently if there was even one QB in free agency that would be an actual improvement but... yeah, wish in one hand, poo poo in the other, see which one fills up first.

Kaepernick is probably an upgrade over Hundley but if you signed him today when would he be ready to start realistically? 2, 3 weeks? Unless you want the Josh Freeman 50 passed less than 200 yards experience. Paint Crop Pro fucked around with this message at 16:40 on Oct 23, 2017 |

He, his representatives and his friends all have been consistent in pointing out that he stays in shape and works out almost daily. Even if he was only brought in as a backup or third stringer, he sounds like he'd be ready to go in case of injury immediately

My thoughts on the Pack are as follows: where can the Packers win games over the next 8 weeks? Bears, Ravens, Browns? All of those are beatable by an Aaron Rodgers-less team, they're all also beat up in many ways at key positions or just lacking the depth of talent. Those are all must-win. A win over any of the Lions (also beat up), Buccaneers, or Panthers puts them in playoff contention heading into the Minnesota game on December 23rd at Lambeau - a likely Rodgers return if he does come back this year. In that same time frame Minnesota will face a strong Redskins team, a surging Rams team, Lions, Panthers, and Falcons, and Bengals. Are there 3 losses in there? Possibly, that defense can't win every game for them. That said, the Vikings are the drivers of this NFC North poo poo-show and it all boils down to the Minnesota defense and whether that offense can do just enough.

NFC West might have one in the Seahawks with the Rams as winners. South is a toss up at this point. East has Eagles as winners, with decent Cowboys and Redskins for the wildcards. The wins over the Seahawks and Cowboys might become very valuable in the end. We might also end up at 4-12.

I think Packers ?! at home vs the Lions, lose at Chicago, beat the Ravens at home, lose in Pittsburgh, then beat the Bucs at home and Browns on the road. That puts the Packers at 7-5 with a coinflip against the Lions for either 8-5 or 7-6. Rodgers had his surgery last week, and the doctors said he could start throwing six weeks from then. That puts him in throwing shape around the time we play the Steelers, and the team will probably ease him back into playing shape over the next two weeks. That puts him, assuming a very generous timetable and assuming the Packers haven't tanked horribly, back into play against the Panthers. If Rodgers is playing then 2-1 over the final three weeks doesn't seem to be too unreasonable. That puts the Packers at 10-6 or 9-7, and probably just barely squeaking into the playoffs. That's the optimistic scenario here.

They had two defensive touchdowns of over 70 yards - that's not something to rely on and the Bears put up one of the worst offensive performances of the decade. An offense with fewer total snaps than the opposing team had passing attempts. E: I did get to watch part of that game - I just don't know how the Panthers can be so awful.

It'd take him 3+ weeks to learn the offense, McCarthy is notoriously stubborn about having people who know the system, and we need to know for the future whether or not Hundley can play well. 2 weeks is not a legit sample size. Aaron Rodgers sucked for a decent while before getting to MVP status, you need to have reps against legit defenses to improve. There is a 0.000000% chance we sign Kaepernick, and the vast majority of the reasons for that have nothing to do with racism. We don't do a read-option offense, we do timing routes with improv secondary reads that rely on long-term chemistry between qb and receiver. Even if Hundley went down, we'd go right to Callahan, because he has more experience in the offense. In order to succeed w Kaep, you need an offense tailored to fit his skillset, and the GB offense is like the opposite of that. Our o-line can't block well enough for it, and we don't have big body receivers. It's a total no-go, discussing it is ridiculous. Besides, on the one in a million chance we did, the actual test to tell a True USA Patriotic Fan wouldn't be burning their worthless stock, it would be for them to give up their place in the season ticket line.
